Cambridge Diet Profile

By Tad Stephenson

The Cambridge Diet is a popular very low calorie diet (VLCD) that has a large number of followers throughout the UK. While this particular weight loss plan hasn't seen nearly the same level of popularity in the United States, this is still a viable weight loss and diet option for the morbidly obese.

The Cambridge Diet is a weight loss plan that is designed with the dangerously overweight in mind. This is a very low calorie diet that is designed primarily to help the grossly overweight lose a lot of extra weight fast.

This eating and weight loss plan is a tiered dietary system that begins as a very low calorie diet at the very beginning and slowly builds up the calorie levels until it reaches more of a maintenance level. The first level involves all Cambridge Diet supplements like porridge, shakes, soups, etc. With each tier the dieter gets to eat more calories and add more food as the weight loss continues.

There are some very important things that must be considered before anyone should go on this diet. The first is getting help from a professional. In the UK dieters who join the Cambridge Diet program have a doctor or expert coach to check in with them weekly and make sure the dieter's health remains good.

The next major consideration before beginning this weight loss plan is the difficulty of following the strict regiment that this diet demands. This diet in the beginning only allows 450-650 calories a day and not any more. For most dieters, this is going to be an extremely hard total to stick to.

Several controversies still remain around this weight loss plan. Concerns remain around possible muscle loss, crashing metabolism, and the overall just lack of daily calories.

That being said, there are still plenty of defenders of the Cambridge Diet. The most defended point of this weight loss plan is obvious, which is that there are thousands of recorded examples of this diet helping morbidly obese individuals losing a lot of pounds.

Arguments about the Cambridge Diet might continue on, but this is a diet that will do well because of the sheer level of success stories. While definitely not for everyone, for the grossly overweight this could be a great solution. - 17273
