/EINPresswire.com/ -- BOISE, ID--(Marketwired - November 08, 2016) - Over 30% of all Americans are overweight or obese individuals, regularly dealing with issues like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and certain types of cancer. With high body mass index (BMI) levels, and therefore increased health problems, reducing excess body fat and pursuing healthier lifestyles is crucial. Because obesity and excessive weight gain are generally preventable issues, weight loss programs are a great option. However, with the surplus of fad diets available, choosing an ideal diet can be challenging. Popular diets offer "immediate" solutions based on a restrictive dietary methods that don't not work for everyone. Realistically, lasting weight loss requires consistency, customization and professional health supervision.

Struggling with excessive hunger between meals, uncontrollable cravings for junk food, and lack of adequate physical exercise, millions of individuals find it difficult to establish and maintain a healthy diet. Then, they often turn to options like the popular Mediterranean Diet without fully understanding them. The Mediterranean Diet recommends a balanced regimen of certain types of foods:

• High amounts of olive oil, legumes, unprocessed cereals, fruits and vegetables
• Moderate amounts of fish, dairy, and wine
• Restricted consumption of non-fish meat or meat products

While the Mediterranean Diet involves customized dieting based on healthy meal choices and discourages the "starvation" approach that many fad diets endorse, it can still be challenging for an individual to maintain alone. Like any other diet, it requires consistency, customization and professional supervision to be effective. According to Dr. Rao, the resident medical expert at Diet Doc, a nationally recognized weight loss center, the Mediterranean Diet Plan could also cause dietary imbalances by ignoring individual dietary needs and lead to the loss of muscle, not fat. Consulting a medical professional is crucial because individual diet macros (protein, carbohydrates and fats) and metabolism determine weight loss, not a "one size fits all" diet plan.
