The Golo diet is a short-term weight-loss plan based on eating nutritious whole foods. The diet focuses on managing hormone levels through supplements, exercise, and a nutrient-rich diet to promote weight loss. The plan appears to be a whole-foods, healthy-eating plan that prioritizes fruits, vegetables, lean protein, nuts, and whole grains over processed foods. The diet requires that you significantly reduce your caloric intake, but it claims to help you lose weight by eating more food and eliminating conventional dieting. The company behind the Golo diet believes that many struggle to lose weight and keep it off due to their hormones, particularly one called insulin, which plays a key role in metabolic function. The diet gained popularity pretty quickly and was the most Googled diet in 2016 according to the program’s website. However, the diet is short-term and may be challenging and pricey for some people.
