Christmas represents a sudden change in our diet. Therefore, it is important to know which diets are the most recommended, but also which are not. Within the range of possibilities we have to follow our diets during these holidays, Rafael Gómez y Blasco, from the Spanish Obesity Society (SEEDO), recommends the following.
If from an economic point of view we can afford it, he assures, “of course the Mediterranean diet would be in first position. For this expert in endocrinology and nutrition, “the presence of fresh fruit and vegetables, fish, legumes and olive oil make it occupy this first place.”
The Academic Director also emphasizes Central American and Caribbean Federation of Obesity and Metabolism, Mexico, Colombia and Ecuador (FECCOM), which “for many years has shown that from the point of view cardiovascularas well as in the important prevention of comorbidities, it is one of the best eating styles in the world.
The second place, he affirms, could be occupied by Atlantic diet, «where the consumption of fish and meat of magnificent quality, as well as an important variety of carbohydrates and vegetables, meet the ideal requirements for health.
Now, it recognizes that one of its biggest drawbacks is the current price of most of the raw materials that constitute it.
Therefore, in the face of the obvious, but very harsh reality, he points out, “the second place should be occupied by the flexible, contextualized and precise diet, OUTSIDE (Flexible and Friendly for the Overweight).
«The FAFO diet allows us to adapt our economic and social situation to the characteristics of these dates, but we can also use the foods and meals that we enjoyed in our childhood or that are part of our customs and roots. With an important amalgamation of possibilities and facilities for the development of our diet, psychological support and physical activity.
In this case, he adds, “the main differentiating feature is that the profession, physical activity, place of origin, the patient’s habits, as well as their economic possibilities to make certain changes in their hygienic-dietary habits are taken into account. ».
Some of the foods that are part of the ABC ketogenic diet

Enter the diets that Rafael Gómez y Blasco does not recommend.
Las ketogenic diets or ket, “which in most circumstances are followed by patients without any type of medical control.” He recalls that “excessive consumption of proteins and fats brings with it important and serious elevations of blood lipids with well-known consequences, as well as uric acid and other metabolites.”
Las fad diets, which emerge every year like mushrooms and are endorsed by “celebrities”, without any type of medical control and that always generate significant nutrient deficits, alterations in the cardiovascular system, rapid and uncontrolled weight loss, with absolutely undesirable rebound effects . “Sometimes with very serious consequences for health.”
Last but not least, he assures, «those “miracle” diets and treatments» that are recommended by friends or «nutritional experts“that without any serious scientific knowledge, they dare to recommend and establish true atrocities from a nutritional point of view and even assume recommendations for treatments that should only be prescribed and recommended by doctors specializing in the matter.”
However, one of the aspects that experts highlight most in relation to this approach is that, “in a novel way, and this is one of its great contributions, it can be followed by the rest of the family, adjusting the quantities and facilitating the realization of the same.
And normal foods from our area of origin or coexistence are included in the diet, allowing us to enjoy the typical regional dishes or that by habit they are part of our daily habits; In this case, as the SEEDO expert reports, “it is only necessary to adjust certain quantities in the food and maintain very simple and open guidelines for the preparation and cooking of the same, so that they are very pleasant to the palate.”
This type of approach has already accumulated nearly 25 years of experience, and has been evaluated by the most eminent groups of anthropologists, sociologists, psychologists and human resources experts, in addition to having the positive opinion of experienced specialists in endocrinology and nutrition, physical activity, psychology, etc.
In your opinion, “It has all the ingredients to become a reference and fad diet».
