The Best Diets of 2021 According to Our Registered Dietitian

If there ever was a year to let unhealthy habits bite the dust, 2021 is definitely it — for many, it'll be a year of rebuilding routines, and making redeeming choices moving forward. And it might be the first time that you're interested more in how food makes you feel rather than how you look; fortunately, there is a handful of eating plans that can help you on both fronts. Stefani Sassos, MS, RD, CDN, the Good Housekeeping Institute's registered dietitian, explains this year's best diets — which can revolutionize your cardiovascular health, help you shed steady pounds, plus boost your mood — won't push you towards what's commonly known as "yo-yo" dieting. "These aren't gimmicks to get you ready for a wedding in two weeks. The best diets teach you excellent nutrition principles that you can adopt for life, no matter which program you're following," she contends.
