Publisher's Synopsis
A bland diet is, well, pretty bland and boring. But, it is also a diet that can help both men and women live healthier lifestyles and shed a few pounds in the process. This special type of diet may also be something needed when special health conditions are found, including GERD, ulcers and similar conditions. With a bland diet the foods that can be consumed are minimized. Foods allowed on a bland diet are usually soft in texture and have little to no seasoning or salt. In addition foods recommended for a bland diet are those that are low in fiber. There are also restrictions on the food that you can eat, as well as on the beverages that can be consumed.A Bland diet can be used indefinitely for those who have health conditions such as those listed above, however, it is not recommended to be used for long-term weight loss benefits. Short term weight loss results with a bland diet have proven to be effective.
