Sirtfood diet and its details

Sirtfood diet is not new. It gained popularity when it got mentioned in the 2016 book by pharmacist Aidan Goggins and the nutritionist Glen Matten called The Sirtfood diet.

Basically, it is the eating foods that can activate the protein sirtuin in the body. And also cutting down calories to bring about weight loss.

So a person on sirtfood diet can eat blueberries, strawberries, red wine, and dark chocolate. Additionally, green tea, onions, celery, parsley, arugula, kale, walnuts, buckwheat, and citrus fruits can also be had on the platter.

These foods and the protein sirtuin aid weight loss. The foods can mediate metabolism and have the benefit of extending one’s life. The proof of this is that people who eat more green leafy vegetables and wines lead a longer life.

These foods also have a lot of vitamins and micronutrients called polyphenols in them. These compounds have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Hence, these can minimize the occurrence of age-related chronic ailments.

The lopsidedness of the diet

The diet includes healthy food substances in daily diet. But it also had another aspect to it. A person following the sirtfood diet also has to restrict the number of calories they consumes to 1000 to 1500 calories per day.

The person has to have 1000 calories only from day 1 to day 3 and 1500 calories from day 4 to day 7. This could lead to malnutrition.

Nutritionist Rachael Hartley states:

“A thousand calories is under the daily amount recommended for a 2-year-old. So for an adult eating that and expecting to fuel their day, you might not keel over, but you’re not going to have the energy to perform at your best,”

Also, protein-rich foods such as chicken, beans, healthy fats, and whole grains are left out of this diet. This causes an imbalance. Therefore, best to consult a nutritionist before jumping on this fad diet.
