Health guru Dr Mickey Mehta shares a four-week diet plan to eat healthy and lose weight.
Is 28 days all you need to lose weight and get back in shape?
According to Dr Mickey Mehta, if you control what you eat for a month, you will be able to shed those extra kilos.
In his latest book Lose Weight Gain Shape, health guru Dr Mickey Mehta shares a four-week diet plan to eat healthy and lose weight.
'After following the prescribed diet for 28 days, it will become a habit to eat nutritious food and snack wisely. It won't feel like a diet anymore,' Mehta says in the book.
Presenting an excerpt from the book:
Due to lack of awareness, many people do not get the correct benefits of eating vegetarian foods.
For instance, a meal comprising of spicy foods, fried snacks and sweets is also vegetarian but it is, in no way, beneficial for the body.
What is required in this case is knowledge about the health benefits of different kinds of foods and proper diet planning.
