The newest fad among celebrities and cookie diet fanatics is called the Cookie Diet. This may sound like a dieting sin, but in effect, the cookies you eat in this weight loss plan are not the regular kind, like what your mom bakes in her kitchen. The cookies in cookie diet contains amino acid which helps to control the hunger of a person and it doesn't contain any carbohydrates. You are to eat up to six of these special cookies as replacement to your lunch and breakfast, and if you are to eat dinner, you are allowed to consume vegetables and lean meat only. The idea is credited to and was made popular by Florida physician, Dr. Siegal. The plan involves a strict menu consisting six of Dr. Siegal's patented cookies per day, plus a vegetable meal with protein, which totals to a daily caloric consumption of a mere 1,000. Dr. Siegal refuted criticisms that the calorie intake is way down below the advised level in dieting, saying that there is no harm to having a low-level carbohydrate diet program. Dr.Segal's idea of dieting has similarities with Dr.Atkins. The original Cookie Diet program idea was then adapted and customized by Dr. Sasson who promoted the program called "Smart for Life." This diet program highlights a different cookie recipe, which emphasizes more on the advantages of having vitamin supplements, exercise or fitness program, and a healthy diet variety. As the Cookie Diet becomes increasingly popular, hybrids are shooting off like stars. The cookie diet which is having more demand is Hollywood cookie diet. Usually this product is endorsed by Hollywood stars so all type of dieting aspirants are after this particular product. Some diet plans tells you to take four cookies a day plus a diner which should be rich in protein. You can make the purchase of cookies through online or from the counter. According to Dr.Segal the main reason for failure of many diet plans is that those diet plans cannot suppress the hunger.Where as the special feature regarding cookie diet is that it has the ability to suppress the hunger. This led to many speculations that this could probably be achieved by eating any other kind of cookie or bread, which could really suppress hunger because of the high fiber content. Weight loss experts maintain that any kind of diet plans need to be matched with a healthy fitness program, and a good dose of discipline. Before selecting any diet plan it is advised that you may consult with the medical practitioner so that he can suggest you how to do the dieting with the proposed diet plan in an effective manner.
