Research Notes on The French Diet
The French Diet is a diet program that explains the secret of why the French don’t get fat. The diet plan suggests eating "real foods" instead of processed foods to achieve weight loss.
Fast Facts:
- French people eat slowly and they divide their food in courses. This allows the body to digest the food well.1
- The French paradox is a term coined in observation that the French have low incidence of Coronary Heart Disease despite having a diet relatively rich in saturated fats.1
- French people get up to 80% of their fat intake from dairy and vegetable sources.1
