Flexitarian Diet

Combining the words "flexible" and "vegetarian," the Flexitarian Diet was developed by registered dietitian Dawn Jackson Blattner. The principle of the diet that makes all the difference is that even if you are a vegetarian, you still do not completely eliminate meat from your diet. The diet has no clear rules or limits on the number of calories per day. In fact, this diet emphasizes eating mostly fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains; focusing on plant-based rather than animal-based proteins; flexibly combining meats; limiting the use of whole foods; limiting the use of canned or processed foods and limiting sugar and sweets.


Whether you call it a flex diet or a semi-vegetarian diet, the Flexitarian Diet is generally very well-balanced and supported by most nutritionists. Studies have shown that diet offers physical and even psychological benefits for people with type 2 diabetes. It has also been shown to reduce risk by 20% have diabetes. However, diabetics need to be aware of the total amount of carbohydrates in each meal of the day. The Flexitarian Diet can be high in carbohydrates, which can affect blood sugar levels. Combine 30 minutes of exercise a day with this diet or consult your nearest medical center for the best results.
