So, if some opt for a sports method, others prefer to review their diet. Young intermittent, diet for weight loss, elimination of one or more food (s): there are possibilities for all tastes and miracle recipes seem to change every year. We have therefore chosen to offer you a small overview of the nutrition trends of the year 2021. Let's go to body summer!
Our plates go green!
Let vegetarians and vegans prepare their stomachs: they will have enough to eat this year. Indeed, according to several surveys conducted by professional consumer trends organizations, 2021 would be a year with a plant trend. The results of numerous tests have highlighted the desire of consumers to turn to a diet of non-animal origin. In addition, the actors of the large distribution of the agri-food industry must have felt the wind turn. Indeed, many brands have started to introduce new all-plant-based products to their product lines. From meat, with steaks and other vegetable sausages, to dairy products everything goes there. Whatever your culinary tastes and preferences, there will be something for everyone. Even in the land of cheese, vegetable cheese is a big hit: French consumers are very fond of vegetable cheese. Sold as tastefully attractive for a lower caloric value, plant-based products attract more followers every day.
Head for breakfast
A famous saying seems to be about to return to the spotlight in this year 2021. "King's breakfast, prince's lunch, poor man's dinner" is the saying that for years seems to be the key to a thin body without headaches. The key word? Adaptation. It is enough to adapt the nutritional intake and the quantities according to the time of day. Thus, at breakfast you can indulge yourself with fruits, dairy products (for even less caloric intake opt for a vegetable origin such as almond milk, yogurts with soy milk, vegetable cheese etc.) but also whole grains (for a better supply of fiber). At lunch , choose a complete and balanced meal such as sautéed vegetables as an accompaniment to meat or fish with rice. As for the "poor" dinner , you can opt for a diet focused on vegetables only. Indeed, in the evening it is better to have a light and healthy dinner so as not to risk accumulating fat during sleep.
Protein to help you gain muscle mass
The body summer in the collective imagination is not only a slim body, it is a muscular, curved body. To help you gain muscle quickly and efficiently, protein intake is possible. Indeed, many brands offer accompaniment to sports practice via ultra-protein food products. Some sites also offer many other products, such as clothing designed for performance, minerals, vitamins but also training programs adapted to your needs and expectations.
