One method of dieting which has exploded in recent months is the one based around calorie shifting. Despite this many don't even know what the idea is behind it or have any idea of how it actually works.Most diets currently available are based around low calorie intake and missing out on some sort of food type, for example carbohydrates. Although this diets may result an initial speedy weight loss the losses soon ground to an halt.
The reason for this is that when we don't take in enough calories and miss out on certain food groups and the benefits they provide our body sends a message to our metabolism to work at a slower rate. This is because it senses that we may be starving and so wants the body to store as much energy as it can.
The diet based around shifting calories gets around this problem by fooling the metabolism into believing you are not on a diet and thus keeping it working at its higher rate. It does this because instead of eliminating food types all together it rotates which ones you eat each day. This has two main benefits one being that you will still get all the benefits that each food group provides and it also solves the metabolism issue.
Another added benefit is that because you are not being made to eliminate any foods you don't get cravings for them and binge. Also diets based around this method have a small cycle of 11 days which when that is over you get 3 full days to eat what you like.
Calorie shifting diets have had such a high success rate amongst users that it is only likely to grow in popularity. Unfortunately with success will come many mediocre copies of the idea so I would recommend using it now before it becomes harder to find one which is the real deal.
