It’s better to first stick to a diet that everyone chooses for themselves, later when you get used to it, you can switch to another or stick to the original for a long time. The main thing is not to change the meal dramatically, if one day you ate scrambled eggs for breakfast, kebab for lunch, and fried potatoes for dinner, then when you switch to cereals, cottage cheese and fresh vegetables, your well-being can worsen. Headaches, dizziness, general weakness will begin, as the body is used to getting more calories than it received that day.

Also, do not forget about physical activity, which also has a positive effect on health. You can do it at home or, if possible, take a subscription to the gym.
