Caloric Restriction Diet with Organique Premium Blend

Caloric Restriction is very popular nowadays. This dietary regimen includes the reduction of food without sacrificing the nutritional need of the body.

Much literature claimed that this regimen may aid our general health and add longevity to our life.

The Scientific evidence

In 1935 Clive Mc Cay a Cornell scientist discovered that rats placed under a restricted-calorie diet lived 30% longer as compared to others with normal diets. The research was also conducted on other animals and shows that it reduces their levels of cholesterol and improves the glucose level in their blood.

Fasting Vs Caloric restriction

Caloric restriction is different from a fasting diet. In a fasting diet, an individual may not eat or limits severely his /her intake of food for a certain time while in a caloric restriction diet an individual just limits his/her daily caloric intake without sacrificing the nutritional need of his or her body.

The premise behind the caloric restriction diet is to consume fewer calories while not sacrificing your intake of minerals, vitamins, and other elements of a balanced diet. With this, it is believed that one can achieve a healthier and longer life.

This article is not in any way claiming an expert opinion about reducing your calorie intake, so it is best to consult a doctor and your nutritionist before starting a new diet.

Best low-calorie fruits

Food supplements

Again, calorie reduction is not about starving your body of the much-needed vitamins and minerals that we need every day. While we have the fruits and vegetables to eat, it would be best to take food supplements to supplyyour body with its much-needed nutrients and maintain our energy while we are reducing our calorie intake.
