The Abs Diet Plan - A Quick Review

David Zinczenko, the editor-in-chief of Men’s Health Magazine, has created a diet plan that encourages you eat healthy by utilizing twelve ‘power’ foods. He has also written a book going in depth of his diet plan. This diet plan is called the Abs Diet Plan.

The following foods are the twelve ‘power’ foods of the Abs Diet:

Almonds and other nuts

Beans and other legumes

Spinach and other green vegetables

Dairy (fat free/low fat)

Instant oatmeal

Eggs

Turkey and other lean meats

Peanut butter (all natural, no more than 3T daily)

Olive oil (extra virgin)

Whole grain breads/cereals

Extra whey protein powder

Raspberries and other berries

As you can see, the first letters of all the foods listed spells out ‘ABS DIET POWER’. This can possibly be a good way to remember what foods are in the power twelve when following this diet guideline.

This Abs Diet Plan is geared towards the quick loss of stomach fat; therefore it is heavily marketed towards men. Men are more likely to gain and loss fat weight from their midsections first. They are the ones who are more likely to have the dreaded ‘beer belly’.

Since women, on the other hand, tend to gain and lose weight in the hips and thighs area first, this diet may not flatten a woman’s stomach as quickly as it would for a man. However following a diet plan such as this one can increase everyone’s odds in achieving the healthy eating lifestyle and body shape that they desire.

The Abs Diet Plan is basically a healthy eating program; there is little wrong with the foods that are outlined for you to eat. Some people are able to simply lose weight by watching calorie counts, but others need an outlined guide to follow.

This diet plan is great for those of us that need to follow an outline to achieve and maintain that goal that has been set. You are very likely to lose weight in a healthy fashion and keep it off if you follow this diet plan.

The Abs Diet Plan is also very vegetarian friendly in the foods that are allowed to be consumed, making it usable by many more people.
