There's a whole slew of diets out there to choose from, but at the end of the day, it's all about choosing what works for you. One of the latest to surge in popularity is the sirtfood diet, an eating plan stars like Adele and Pippa Middleton swear by. Before you consider trying it out for yourself, let's run through exactly what the sirtfood diet actually is.

The idea behind the sirtfood diet comes from nurtritionists Aidan Goggins and Glen Matten. The two wrote an official guide book about how the diet works and what you can eat on it.

The sirtfood diet works off of the concept that by eating certain things, you can trigger the activation of certain proteins called sirtuins or colloquially dubbed "skinny genes." According to Healthline, sirtuins have many functions and are "a group of seven proteins found in the body that has been shown to regulate a variety of functions, including metabolism, inflammation and lifespan."

By monitoring caloric intake and eating foods that contain a lot of sirtuin proteins in them (a.k.a. "sirtfoods"), this diet aims to have the same effect as exercise and fasting. There are two phases of the diet.

There are two phases of the sirtfood diet, with phase one lasting a week. For this first week, days one through three are limited to 1,000 calories per day and include three sirtfood-approved green juices and one meal. After the third day, you can consume 1,500 calories per day in the form of two green juices and two meals. In a report by USA Today, it explains that the second phase of the sirtfood diet lasts 14 days and includes "three meals high in sirtfoods, one sirtfood green juice, and one or two sirtfood bite snacks."

The list of approved sirtfoods includes 20 foods, according to SirtFoodDiet.net. The foods are as follows:

Yup, you can still drink red wine and eat chocolate. Although these are the top 20 sirtfoods, there are other foods approved for this diet like asparagus, green beans, raspberries, and popcorn.

You should probably hit the grocery stores and order yourself a juicer before you give this diet a go. There are quite a few moving parts to the phases and a lot of organization required, but it's meant to be fast acting and last about 21 days. When in doubt just think, what would Adele do?
