This diet is for people who are not strictly against eating meat, poultry, or seafood but prefer to consume most of their food from plants and non-animal flesh sources. If you've ever considered a vegetarian diet but backed out because you love a good burger, the flexitarian diet may be a good option for you. Combining the words "flexible" and "vegetarian," this diet proposes that you can reap many of the benefits of a vegetarian diet while still enjoying meat when the craving strikes. The focus of the diet is less about restriction and removal, and more about adding an abundance of plant foods. Plants offer protection against cancer, diabetes, and other health conditions thanks to essential micronutrients, vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals. When following the flexitarian diet, you'll focus on eating more vegetarian meals. The diet still allows for meat-based meals throughout the week. The key is to focus on vegetarian meals most of the time while allowing for meat in moderation. Studies show that increasing your consumption of satisfying plant-based foods, which are rich in nutrients for overall health promotion, will lead to greater consumption of vegetarian dishes. The flexitarian diet can help guide you toward a well-balanced, nutrient-dense eating plan. You'll focus on adding more plant-based foods while slowly reducing your intake of animal foods. While heavy meat eaters may find it difficult to adjust to this lifestyle, it does offer flexibility-whether that means just a few meatless meals each week or working toward predominately vegetarian dishes. Following the flexitarian diet can improve your overall health and may promote weight loss. If you plan to use this diet to lose weight, keep in mind other factors-like sleep and regular exercise-play a role in weight loss and weight management as well. Remember
