Introduction to the Ultra Low-Fat Diet
The Ultra Low-Fat Diet is a nutritional approach that restricts fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories. This diet is rooted in the belief that low fat consumption can lead to improved heart health and weight loss. The main components of an ultra low-fat diet include fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes, while avoiding oils, meat, and high-fat dairy products. By focusing on plant-based, minimally processed foods, this diet aims to reduce the risks of chronic diseases such as heart disease, obesity, and diabetes. It’s important for followers to ensure they still meet all nutritional needs, particularly for essential fats and proteins.
