5 Factor Diet
5 Factor Diet by Harley Pasternak is also a Hollywood endorsed diet. Harley’s celebrity clientele demanded a quick, simple and incredibly effective workout regimen that they could squeeze between their time-limited breaks for example, on movie sets. In addition, Harley complemented the workouts by creating 5 healthy meals a day that could be prepared in a matter of minutes using simple ingredients. The daily diet has protein, complex carbohydrates, fibre, fat, and fluids.

5 principles outlined for 5 Factor Diet:
- 5 meals daily
- 5 criteria for each meal
- 5 minutes in preparation for each meals with 5 ingredients per meal
- 5 days a week ( 25 minutes per day) workout for 5 weeks
- 5 ‘cheat’ days in 5 weeks
5 Criteria for each of 5 meals per day

Sundays are considered a ‘cheat day’ – eat what you like, while sticking to the 5-meals principle.
