Contrary to what most people think, by following a flexible diet it isn’t hard to achieve our daily requirements for minerals and vitamins. All we need to do is include plenty of fruits and vegetables in our diet.

The great advantage of following a flexible diet is that we can always choose the way in which we eat food. For example, we can eat pancakes with fruit inside, yogurt with fruit and chocolate (whey/lean cocoa powder), salads with the dressings we most love, etc. Contrary to those who follow a strict regimen that only includes tasteless foods with no salt along with a side of boiled bland broccoli.

Truth be told, despite common belief, most people who follow restrictive diets have a high probability of developing nutritional deficiencies due to the lack of variety I their nutrition.

So, by following a flexible diet we’re practicing a healthier diet in terms of physical as well as mental health.

Overall we can conclude that, as always, we should do what works best for us, as long as we’re happy with the results attained.
