The Diet Solution is a diet program created by Isobel de los Rios.  This program quickly became a fast seller online. Does it really work?  Many fad diets out there that claim to have you thin within a certain deadline.  Therefore, is this another scam to make some company rich or does this really trim the fat away.

This particular program is made to fit each individual’s metabolic rate; therefore, letting them know what they can eat to digest fat at what is supposed to be a normal rate.  This program tends to go outside the conventional ways of losing weight.  That might be a good thing considering all other diets are made to fail.

There are, like in everything, good and bad things about this product.  Here are some of the pros.  The downloadable PDF that this program comes in lists many different types of meats, vegetables, and recipes that are good for each individual’s body.  It takes into account new science that is really just old science that was buried for profitable gain.  This involves getting rid of myths about saturated fats, and listing foods that turn more quickly into sugar.   It gets rid of the downfalls of the regular dieting that typically lead people to quit dieting early on.  The best thing this is not a “fit for all” diet.  Instead, it works to accommodate each person instead of having everyone do the same thing.

Now, some negative sides to this diet.  There is still a large focus on calories.  Even though the program is customized, it can still get confusing on what to do.  There is excessive marketing, which has also been one of the main complaints about the product.  Some people would rather just purchase it without being sold a line or being pressured into buying something else.  While grains are listed as something to avoid many food recipes are still listed with grains.  The last thing to note is there are not enough references to the science that backs this program.

The program itself seems to be very beneficial for losing weight.  However, on many nutritional sites that list this program the comments are either one of two things, “Buy this program it is great!” or “I didn’t know I was getting a download! What a scam!”  It seems that Isobel should put some time into making her site operational or at least understandable.  Half the public seem to be getting the product and enjoying it, but the other half does not understand the site properly.  When fifty percent of people are having a problem, and it seems clear where it is coming from there should be adjustments made so these people do not feel ripped off.
