Trainer Harley Pasternak Shares His 5-Factor World Diet

Celebrity trainer Harley Pasternak has buffed up the bodies of stars like Alicia Keys, Halle Berry, Lady Gaga and Robert Downey, Jr. with his 5-Factor diet and fitness plans.

The 5-Factor plan, which we love, involves five small meals a day, recipes with 5 minutes of prep that contain 5 core nutrients, and a 25 minute workout. Oh, and did we mention the one day a week when you are free to go off the plan? It’s flexible and it works!

Pasternak has just released a new book, in the 5-Factor family, The 5-Factor World Diet,  inspired by his worldwide travels to countries with low obesity rates and high life expectancies- Japan, Singapore, China, Sweden, France Italy, Spain, South Korea, Greece and Israel.

In The 5-Factor World Diet, Pasternak also discusses how Americans (who have the 9th highest rates of obesity) can change their health.

Check out a few of his invaluable tips:

Choose fish. Japan is the healthiest country in the world, and the Japanese choose fish as their preferred protein source, whereas we definitely overeat meat in the U.S.

Make your plate colorful. A lot of Asian countries make it a point of having five colors present on every dish, which leads to eating nutrient-rich foods.

Don’t be scared of dairy. The Swedes are one of the healthiest people and they put a high value on dairy. It’s one of the best quality proteins you can put in your body and has vitamin C, calcium, vitamin D. Just know there are low-fat dairy options.

And there are more healthy tips where these came from. Check out The 5-Factor World Diet for a worldwide perspective on health- and a fantastic, new lifestyle!
