Metabolic Diet
A Third Age Diet & Nutrition feature
by our Health Editor

Most diets are ’one size fits all’ diets which take no account of you as an individual.

The Metabolic Diet is different. The Metabolic Diet is a diet that is tailored specifically towards you and your metabolism.

By identifying your metabolic typing, the Metabolic Diet enables you to choose foods that your body will burn off more quickly, enabling you safely and healthily to lose weight more effectively. The Metabolic Diet is a diet that you can truly ‘call your own’!

What is the Metabolic Diet?
The Metabolic Diet is a diet based on the theory that a ‘one size fits all’ diet is not for everyone, but that a diet can and should be tailored to your individual metabolism. Once you have established your particular metabolic type, then the Metabolic Diet should help you lose weight safely and healthily. Just as importantly, the Metabolic Diet should enable you to maintain your ideal weight with little difficulty.

What is Metabolic Typing?
Metabolic Typing is a grading system for determining how certain foods will affect your particular body type. It works on the theory that each of us has a metabolism that is unique to us, and that there are basically three different metabolic types – Protein, Carbohydrate and Mixed. Once Metabolic Typing has assessed your particular body type, you can boost your metabolism and eat foods that will best help you not only lose weight, but remain at your ideal weight.

Benefits of the Metabolic Diet
Because the Metabolic Diet is a diet based on your individual metabolism, it is a diet that may well be able to help you in your Third Age where other diets have failed.
