The Melarossa diet

Today we are talking about the Melarossa service , a site that provides a free weight loss diet to those who want it; I have tested the service more than once , and have also recommended it in this article . Here we will see the advantages and disadvantages of the Melarossa diet , if it is worth trying it and to whom.

MELAROSSA DIET
Advantages
1) The diet is free: in fact, just go to the Melarossa.it website and on the left click on the box that says: “Enter the data and get your diet for free” to get started.
2) You have to fill in a questionnaire: the service says it offers a personalized diet, although in my opinion the required parameters are too few for it to be defined as such. There is a lack of blood tests and a thorough medical history of the patient . Data such as body mass index, waist to hip ratio, weight goal request, daily activity rating are provided. 3) There is the vegetarian option, the exclusion of some specific foods to choose and the indication for those who eat out.

4) There are warnings: if you are of normal weight and you do not need to go on a diet, during the registration phase you will see messages that remind you of this thing. Of course, you can ignore them.
Let’s now look at the disadvantages.
5) It is managed by Sisa: the initiative of this newspaper, which is also an app, is managed by Sisa, the Italian Society of Food Sciences.

The disadvantages
1) The diet is too restrictive: the diet aims to make you lose a kilo a week. Definitely too much, given that to reach such a goal it cuts your calories by almost a thousand a day, until you go below the basal metabolic rate. With a basal metabolic rate of 1280 calories and two tests, I got a 1100 calorie diet and a 1200 calorie diet – little for my metabolism. I remind you that doing diets that go below our basal metabolic rate is a mistake, because they increase the chances of reducing the metabolism and making us regain weight as soon as we stop the diet. Furthermore, the weight goals are absolutely standardized and therefore unrealistic: by cutting so much you can lose more weight or paradoxically much less.
Ultimately, if this data were revised, the Melarossa diet could be the best alternative on the web for those looking for a diet, always taking into account that a true personalized weight loss path is another thing.
