Diet change: lose weight over the long term with the TLC diet
At the beginning of the new year, many overweight people swear they will finally lose a few extra pounds. With any diet, the risk of yoyo effect is great.
A good focus is, for example, the TLC diet. It helps you lose weight in a structured and controlled way.

There is a variety of nutritional approaches available for people who want to reduce their weight. However, many diets do not provide anything, as the experts emphasize. Muchos is currently promoting the TLC diet call. With this relatively new concept, on the ground you should lose weight quickly, but also lower cholesterol. What is the method about?

Low calorie diet
Health experts continue to advise on incorrect weight loss. Many make the mistake of quickly reducing your weight or avoiding certain foods, but you also quickly add the kilos after the end of the diet. To lose weight without a yo-yo effect, the diet must change constantly over a long period.

The basis of the TLC diet is the distinction between good and bad cholesterol. A basic distinction is made between healthy unsaturated fatty acids and non-healthy saturated or polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Saturated fatty acids increase unhealthy LDL cholesterol. Therefore, soil unsaturated fatty acids are in the menu of the TLC method.
