WHAT’S YOUR EATING STYLE? With so many diets on the menu, there has never been so much choice when it comes to healthy eating – or so much confusion! MYKE BARTLETT examines the cream of the crop to separate the food from the fad. What do you feel like eating tonight? Once the options might have been as exotic as pizza, pasta or Chinese takeaway, now you’re more likely to hear Mediterranean, keto, paleo, Atkins or vegan. We are overwhelmed by dietary options like never before, to the extent that it can be hard to sort the genuinely healthy options from the dubious wellness fads. Another complication is working out which approach to eating might suit you. Are you low-FODmap, nut-averse or pescetarian? When you take into account health requirements, personal tastes and a daily schedule that might not have much time to hunt for new ingredients, find the right eating style can seem almost impossible. This issue, as Christmas approaches, we’re going to try to make that an easier choice. We’re looking at some of the most popular diets and eating styles currently out there, examining the evidence, considering the benefits and helping you decide which approach to food might work for you.
