Japanese diet

The Japanese diet has long proven its effectiveness in losing weight to many.No other diet can compare with its results, but it allows every representative of the fair sex to remain beautiful and keep fit for many years.

In addition, one of the advantages of the diet is minimal monetary costs and availability of products.This doesn't mean the menu will only feature rice porridge;also includes proteins and plant foods.

There are many varieties of them in the world: rice, without salt, and a whole nutritional scheme has been developed for each.

Operating principle

The weight loss effect of the Japanese diet is achieved thanks to three fundamental principles.They help to achieve the desired result and maintain it at a constant level for a long time:

1. Low calorie method used
   Due to the small amount of calories entering the body, it must use its own reserves as "fuel", which leads to the actual loss of extra pounds.
2. High protein content
   This leads to the fact that the body begins to burn excess fat at an accelerated rate due to the large expenditure of energy in processing proteins.
3. Low salt content
   This contributes to the beneficial effects of the diet on the body: blood pressure normalizes, excess fluid is removed from the tissues, and tissue swelling is eliminated.

This type of diet is suitable for people with different configurations and desires for efficiency.For example, to get rid of 4-5 extra kilos, you will have to adhere to the chosen type of diet for seven days.

If you need to lose up to 10 kg, the period is doubled accordingly, to 14 days.In some cases, the Japanese diet can be used for 1 month if there are no contraindications.

This rice diet will appeal to many, since you will have to eat rice only in the morning, on an empty stomach, and the rest of the time variety is allowed.

But this does not mean that we can abuse fatty and high-calorie foods;it is also necessary to maintain proper nutrition during the day.

Pros and cons

The rice menu for 13 days is a 100% release of all waste and toxins from the body.This is achieved thanks to the action of rice, which acts on the body like a brush, cleaning the intestinal walls.

• Rice cereals exfoliate all the mucus and decaying food residues that remain on the intestinal walls.
• By consuming rice without heat treatment, the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract is normalized - this will give good results in weight loss.
• Eating rice in the morning on an empty stomach, without heat treatment and adding salt, will help remove excess salts and fluid from the body.

This type of Japanese rice diet has both pros and cons: in the morning be sure to have breakfast only with rice and do not forget, after eating, to soak a new portion of cereal in water.

List of essentials for losing weight

The first thing you need to do:

1. Prepare 4 pots.Attach a sign to each with tape with the number written on it.
