Some ideas to explore

• The Mediterranean diet remains a classic, is relatively easy to adopt, and should be accompanied by a reasonable amount of inexpensive physical exercise, such as walking.
• For the more experienced, the Okinawa diet is today considered to be one of the best for your health in the long term. It involves a lifestyle and diet that allow you naturally to achieve a balanced weight as well as a high level of physical and intellectual vitality.
• The GI diet favours the intake of low GI foods and is not a restrictive diet. This proven model can serve as a basis to rethink and restructure your long-term diet.

These examples are not diets in the slimming sense of the term but rather ways of eating, i.e. a life habit linked to the choice of the type, quality and quantity of the foods we eat. They are long-term choices and therefore influence our health. They also pass down to our children and influence their size and health.
