"      this diet to other popular diets.   Overview Formulated by Dr. Dean Ornish to reverse heart disease by lowering blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Ornish claims that this vegetarian, low-fat, low-cholesterol diet helps heart patients sidestep bypass surgery. It also helps people without the disease peel off the pounds. Pronounced weight loss is likely right off the bat since the diet calls for dramatic changes to most dieters&amp;#039; regimens. Includes sample menus, techniques for low-fat cooking, and nutrient profiles of common foods. What you will eat As many fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes as you want, but almost no fat (a mere 10 percent of calories, or 15 to 25 grams), even the heart-healthy kind. Small portions of chicken and seafood are allowed, but red meat, nuts, avocados, sugar, refined grains, and other high-calorie, high-fat fare are out. Instead of counting calories, dieters are advised to eat as much as they want according to specified guidelines (i.e., choosing mostly fiber-rich fruits and vegetables). Alcohol and Caffeine Both are strongly discouraged. Dining Out Difficult -- unless you&amp;#039;re in a vegetarian or raw food establishment. Family Friendly Yes, provided your family really likes vegetables. Amount of Cooking Preparing meals at home is preferred, but nuking a plate of vegetables is a snap.  Best for Vegetarians and those who don&amp;#039;t crave sugar or fat. Setbacks to Watch Out for The low fat intake may interfere with adequate absorption of fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K. The diet&amp;#039;s high carb levels may be problematic for people with diabetes or those who are resistant to insulin. Meat lovers will have a tough time sticking with this one.
