What is the Portfolio Diet?

The Portfolio Diet is a diet that focuses on a few foods that help lower cholesterol levels and improve heart health. Specifically, it focuses on four main foods: soy protein, plant sterols, nuts, and soluble fiber.

Benefits of the Portfolio Diet

Here are some benefits of the Portfolio diet, shared by nutritionist Garima Goyal (India).

- Reduce LDL cholesterol

A study published in the journal JAMA found that the Portfolio diet helps lower LDL cholesterol.

- Reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease

A study published in the journal Circulation found that the Portfolio diet lowered cholesterol and reduced the risk of coronary heart disease and stroke by 14%.

- Helps lose weight sustainably

The Portfolio Diet focuses on incorporating a variety of plant-based foods, which can help lower cholesterol levels. It is also high in soluble fiber, which helps you feel full longer, reducing overall calorie intake. Plant-based protein sources help build and repair tissues, boost metabolism, and reduce cravings.

- Improve blood sugar control

The low glycemic index (GI) of whole grains, legumes, and soy products helps regulate blood sugar levels, reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. Therefore, the Portfolio Diet may help reduce the risk of diabetes.

- Improve intestinal health

The Portfolio Diet helps nourish beneficial gut bacteria, improve digestion, reduce bloating and support immune function.

- Enhance nutrient absorption

A Portfolio Diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants can help you absorb more nutrients.
