The secret to a slimmer you? Eating the foods that suit your genetic make up, says the latest diet to cross the pond
Character traits
You tend to be fuller figured with a less defined waist. You have a tendency for emotional highs and lows and are a problem solver – just like TV presenter Oprah Winfrey. You may have a longer index finger than ring finger and lower leg shorter than upper leg.The foods to eat
Aim for a high-protein, low-glycaemic diet and opt for low-GI foods for a steady blood sugar level. You’ll find detoxes beneficial, too.Lamb and mutton are good. For seafood, stick to herring, mullet and sardines. A choice of oils is essential to get your metabolism going: the best are olive or walnut oil. Cottage cheese and ricotta suit you best. Other foods include exotic fruits, such as guava, loganberry and papaya.What to avoid
Stay away from feta, Manchego and mozzarella cheeses. Avoid avocados, cucumbers and microwaved and fried food. Sugary drinks, such as juices and colas, are also out.
