Diéták

Diéták refer to dietary regimens or eating plans designed to achieve specific health or weight management goals. These approaches vary widely in their composition, focusing on different macronutrient ratios, food groups, or restrictions. Common goals for adopting a diet include weight loss, muscle gain, managing chronic conditions like diabetes or high blood pressure, improving athletic performance, or addressing food intolerances.

One popular category is low-carbohydrate diets, such as the ketogenic diet, which significantly restricts carbohydrate intake and emphasizes fats and proteins. Conversely, low-fat diets limit the consumption of fats, often increasing carbohydrate intake. Vegetarian and vegan diets exclude meat and animal products, respectively, with variations like pescatarian diets including fish.

Other diets focus on specific eating patterns, such as intermittent fasting, which involves cycling between periods of eating and voluntary fasting. Many diets also emphasize whole, unprocessed foods and limit refined sugars, processed meats, and unhealthy fats. The effectiveness and sustainability of any diet can depend on individual physiology, lifestyle, and adherence. Consulting with a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian is often recommended before starting a new diet to ensure it is safe, appropriate, and meets nutritional needs.
