What is the "Volumetrics Diet" that lets you eat a lot and lose weight? ~ Nutritionist's Column Vol.142

Do you think that dieting means enduring hardship?
Enduring hunger and limiting what you want to eat...such stoic methods are not sustainable for long.
In fact, there is a dietary style that allows you to eat a lot without gaining weight.

That's the Volumetrics Diet (also known as Volume Eating) .

This is a diet method that is gentle on the mind and body, as it naturally reduces the calories you consume while making you feel full.
Here, we'll explain how it works and why GRØN 's plant-based proteins and natural ingredients are a perfect match for this style.

What is the Volumetrics Diet?

Volumetrics is a dietary method proposed by American nutritionist Dr. Barbara Rolls, which aims to "keep calories low while feeling full."
The key is to choose foods that are low in "calorie density (energy density)."

In other words, the idea is to eat plenty of foods that are high in water and dietary fiber, such as vegetables, fruits, mushrooms, and seaweed, to feel full while keeping calories down.

What to eat and how to eat it? The basics of hearty eating

The key is not to "eat less" but to "what you eat."
Let's try incorporating the following ideas:

✅ Focus on foods rich in water and dietary fiber, such as vegetables, fruits, seaweed, and mushrooms
✅ Add a moderate amount of high-protein, low-fat foods (such as beans, fish, chicken breast, Greek yogurt, etc.)
✅ Choose less refined carbohydrates (oatmeal, whole grains, brown rice, etc.)
✅ Dressings and seasonings should be simple and natural.

Eat as much as you want without feeling guilty. That's the appeal of Volumetrix.

Why is GRØN 's plant-based protein such a great match?

GRØN values the idea of enjoying the blessings of nature in their entirety.
This overlaps deeply with the idea of volumetrics.
The ingredients in GRØN's protein blend are nutrient-dense and low in calories , making them perfect for a volumetric approach.

● Superfood powders such as matcha and beets
⇒ Low in calories but high in nutrition, it helps to tone the body from the inside out

● GRØN × Fruit Smoothie
⇒ The natural sweetness and color satisfy the senses and gently suppress the desire to eat more.

And even when you feel like "It's too hot and I have no appetite..."

・Gentle nutritional supplementation with smoothies

 Especially during the summer when appetite tends to decrease, a cold smoothie or light protein drink is a great way to replenish your energy.
You will feel light even though you have eaten a lot.
