In Chinese medicine, we recommend BALANCE. There is no one stop shop diet out there that is "good for you." There are some common themes that help prevent disease and nourish our bodies (i.e. low sugar, more fruits and veggies, right amounts of proteins and fiber, etc.) but even that advice can vary for those who are diabetic (need to watch sugars even in fruit), have kidney disease (need to limit protein) or tend to kidney stones due to oxalates (should not have too much spinach or raspberries), for example.

So before you try some fad diet, be sure to consider the pros and cons. Children should never be on a keto diet due to possible bone defects during growth and women in their 40's and beyond also have to consider the risks due to a higher risk of muscle loss and osteopenia / osteoporosis.

Want to know more and have no idea how to eat for YOU? Set up a 15 min. FREE consultation with Dr. Ro to see what programs we offer (from 1:1 coaching, group classes, online modules/classes and hybrid classes for busy individuals).
