The Eat-Clean Diet
The Eat-Clean Diet, developed by Reno focuses on eating natural foods without preservatives. Reno’s diet offers a combination of healthy eating and exercise[2]
There are eight main principles of the diet[3]. Eat five to six small meals spread out by two to three hours every day; combine lean protein and complex carbohydrates at every meal; drink two to three liters of water each day; carry a cooler packed with natural, unprocessed foods to get you through the day; avoid pre-packaged, over-processed refined foods; avoid white sugar and flour, saturated and trans fats, colas, juices and alcohol; consume healthy fats, including fresh fruits and vegetables; and stick to proper portion sizes.
