The Eat Clean Diet

Creator Tosca Reno would prefer that her natural food lifestyle plan not be called a diet, because she insists you do not have to deprive yourself.

What it is: Create Tosca Reno created a lifestyle plan, rather than a diet, to offer smarter food choices without sacrificing a love of food.

How it works: The Eat Clean lifestyle prohibits eating any man-made foods, such as bread and processed meat, and instead calls for all natural-made foods.

What you do: Practicing portion control, practitioners eat about five to six meals a day with about 300 calories at each meal. Protein is consumed at every meal along with complex carbs and a lot of water. Reno also offers a series of exercise programs.

Benefits: Her websites offers a variety of recipes using only natural-made foods. Such a lifestyle certainly encourages the freshest produce.

Downside: Reno recommends a variety of supplements with this lifestyle, which are not cheap.
