The Delta Diet is a weight management program based on utilizing natural daily body hormone cycles (Circadian rhythm) to achieve and maintain an ideal body weight range without resorting to medications, surgery, or other drastic measures. The term Circadian rhythm refers to a daily rhythmic activity cycle based on a 24-hour rhythm. The program is based on the triad of hormones, nutrient timing, and the Circadian sleep-wake cycle. If implemented faithfully, this program will usually produce results in a few weeks to a few months, and the results can be maintained indefinitely.
