Protein diet: features

The protein diet lasts less than two weeks, and it is based on the consumption of protein–rich foods.

Features of the diet.
1. 10 days of diet. During this time, it is necessary to drastically reduce the amount of foods rich in carbohydrates and increase protein intake.

2. Drinking regime. It is necessary to strictly observe the drinking regime with this diet. The daily amount of water consumed should be at least 2 liters of water. But do not put everything off until the end of the day or a certain moment, this is an additional burden on the kidneys. Water should be drunk half an hour before a meal, and after a meal, water intake should be discontinued. Water should always be drunk before meals, no matter if you follow a diet or not. Water promotes the production of gastric juice, which improves the digestion process, as well as blunts hunger, which prevents overeating. If we drink water after eating, we will dilute the acid in the stomach and the digestive process will slow down.

3. Fractional nutrition. Another feature is the average number of meals, which is 4-5 times. If there are 24 hours in 2 days, 9 of which we sleep, then there are 15 hours left. Therefore, meals should be every 3 hours. In this mode, the metabolism in the body is accelerated. Fat is not stored in reserve, as the body processes food more intensively without having time to feel hungry.

4. Maintain a meat-vegetable balance. This ratio should be 2:1 (for every two parts of protein, there should be a portion of carbohydrates). Green vegetables and starch–free vegetables are the best carbohydrates. Foods containing carbohydrates should be reduced to a minimum (potatoes, radishes, rice, carrots, radishes, beets, soybeans, peas, beans, etc.). Eliminate "fast" carbohydrates completely. Forget about flour and sweets. Fast food and soda without dieting should be excluded from the diet.

Protein products
Beef, veal, and other types of lean red meat contain high amounts of protein. Poultry meat (chicken, duck, turkey) contains almost no fat and is also rich in protein. Low-fat dairy products (milk, yogurt, cottage cheese) should be in the diet. Among the protein-rich vegetables are asparagus, broccoli and spinach. They also need to be included in the diet.

The protein diet menu
Given that there are quite a lot of protein-containing foods, the diet of this diet is quite wide. It is worth using only natural products for cooking, dietary, without dyes and preservatives, without the use of salt and other harmful substances. Eliminate various semi-finished products from the diet (sausages, sausages, cutlets, sausages, etc.). Dietary poultry meat is great for dieting, and dishes such as grilled chicken and turkey kebabs will satisfy gastronomic tastes. Everything is allowed seafood, the main cooking method is grilled, steamed or baked in the oven.

One of the possible menu options

Breakfast: low-fat cottage cheese (100 g), low-fat cottage cheese (125 g), coffee or tea without sugar.

The diet should consist of foods that you like and be varied. Try not to eat salt, and olive oil in tandem with seasonings and lemon juice is perfect for dressing vegetable salads.
