Preparing a fasting day with fermented baked milk, yogurt and other fermented milk

Fasting days are useful in themselves. It is these one-day diets that allow you to lose a little excess weight and volume very quickly. And to maintain good shape, these unloadings become indispensable. It is very important to adhere to a proper diet and not expose the body to unnecessary stress from fasting.

Everything should be thoughtful and balanced. Today we will take a closer look at a fasting day with milk. Many nutritionists recommend making this product the main one for a daily diet. We will learn how to properly create a diet, determine the most important recommendations, and also outline the benefits of fasting milk days.

General rules

The practice of fasting days has been known in practical medicine for a very long time and is used for therapeutic purposes in obesity , cardiovascular and other diseases.
On this day, it is expected to limit the caloric content of the diet and consume one (maximum two) product in several doses during the day, which speeds up metabolic processes. You should not consume salt, sugar, and a sufficient amount of liquid is recommended. During this period, the digestive system is not overloaded, the function of the liver, stomach, intestines and kidneys is normalized. After festive feasts, unloading on one product will allow you to remove excess fluid from the body and feel relief. If you are overweight, fasting days 4 times a month (provided you eat properly on other days) will help you lose weight. After a few months, you can see positive results.

An option may be a milk fasting day if you love and tolerate milk well. Carbohydrates in it are represented by milk sugar - lactose , and some people may not digest it.

This is a rather tough option for protein unloading, but milk was chosen for a reason:

• The calorie content of 100 g of 2.5% milk is 52 kcal. Drinking 1.5 liters per day, the body receives 780 kcal. Low-fat dairy products (considered as such up to 3.5%), having low calorie content, stop the feeling of hunger and satiate well.
• This is a highly valuable food product containing more than 100 biologically important substances: complete proteins, fats, mineral salts (phosphorus, calcium, sodium, iron, potassium, sulfur), microelements (zinc, copper, iodine, fluorine, manganese), fat-soluble vitamins A , E , D , ascorbic acid , nicotinic acid , thiamine , riboflavin , phosphatides . The important thing is that they are in an easily digestible form.
• In terms of chemical composition, it is a balanced source of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, 100 g of which contains: 3.5% proteins, 1-2.5% fats, 4.6% carbohydrates. Proteins are represented by albumin , casein , globulin and are easily digested by digestive enzymes. Milk fat is in the form of fat globules and is also easily digested.
• Produces a mild diuretic effect.
• Not contraindicated for gastrointestinal diseases: it has a gentle effect without irritating the mucous membrane of the stomach, intestines, erosions, ulcers, and eliminates heartburn .

Efficiency

A properly conducted milk fasting day activates all sorts of processes in the body, which ultimately lead to weight loss:

• saturation with useful substances (vitamins and microelements) allows organs to work without interruption;
• protein helps restore damaged muscle tissue;
• due to long digestion, a feeling of rapid and prolonged saturation is created;
• metabolism and lipolysis are accelerated;
• the process of burning fat starts due to a low-calorie diet, but within a day it simply does not have time to complete and provide you with weight loss in the waist, sides and other problem parts of the body;
• Digestion is normalized due to the restoration of beneficial gastric microflora;
• waste, toxins, and excess fluid are removed.

The benefits of milk for weight loss are obvious. That’s why the idea arose to use this drink for fasting days. Good results are guaranteed if everything is done correctly.

I have an opinion. From time immemorial it was believed that milk protects against osteoporosis, but modern science has debunked this myth. In fact, it turned out that 500 ml of this drink could indeed supply the bone skeleton of an adult with a sufficient amount of calcium, but... this does not happen. According to great minds, milk protein, when it enters the blood, acidifies it, and this leads to almost instant leaching of calcium from the bones, which makes them porous and fragile. And the body distributes all excess of this useful macroelement to the kidneys, lungs and brain in the form of calcifications.

Rules for unloading

• Light meal the day before.
• The exit from the fasting day should also be gradual.
• Do not attempt a deload if you are sick, tired or not feeling well.
• Do what you love on this day, relax or sleep, go into the kitchen as little as possible and look in the refrigerator.
• Avoid heavy exercise and skip the gym, but you can visit the sauna or get a massage.

On this day you will need 1.5 liters of milk of medium fat content (1-2.5%), which must be divided into six doses. Since this is a liquid discharge, you do not need to drink any other liquid. It is more pleasant to drink milk slightly warm or at room temperature, but not cold. At night you can add a little natural honey.

If fasting on milk alone seems too strict for you, you can try other options. For example, you can diversify the taste of milk with green tea: bring 1.5 liters of milk to a boil, cool slightly and add 2 tablespoons of green tea. Leave for fifteen minutes, stirring occasionally. Drink in equal portions. Green tea adds flavor and acts as a diuretic.

With cottage cheese: take 500 g of both products and consume, alternating, five times. In this case, it is recommended to consume additional fluid. It can be green (herbal tea), table water.

With fruit: in addition to 1 liter of milk, the diet includes 3 bananas (or 500-600 g of apples). This fasting day will be satisfying. Considering that the average caloric content of a banana is 120 kcal, the total caloric content will be 920 kcal. Eating foods should be alternate, and at lunch you can combine them.

With rice (buckwheat): cook a glass of rice without salt and divide the porridge into 5 servings, pouring each with a glass of warm milk. You can drink tea and table water. You don’t need to cook buckwheat porridge, but pour boiling water over it in the evening (a glass of cereal - 2 cups of boiling water). This can be done in a thermos with a wide neck.

In the morning, divide the crumbly porridge into 5-6 servings. Eat, pour milk. The volume of milk is one liter. The cereal component, in addition to rice and buckwheat, can be represented by rye bread or whole grain bread in the amount of 100–150 g. These fasting days are filling, but the calorie content is also higher. From 1 cup of cereal you get 2 cups of crumbly porridge with a calorie content of 132 kcal per 100 g. You will get 528 kcal with buckwheat porridge and 520 with milk, for a total of 1048 kcal. With this unloading option, you need to drink liquid.

Having a positive infusion and following the recommendations, you can benefit from fasting days in the form of getting rid of fluid, improving your well-being and gaining lightness in the body. Fasting days should be carried out on a certain day of each week so that the body gets used to such nutrition.

Rules

The success and benefits of a fasting day directly depend on compliance with the requirements and rules:

• Choose low-calorie cow's milk 1.5%. It contains less than 50 kcal, and the benefits are just as high.
• The total amount of milk should not exceed 2 liters. Divide the entire volume into 6 servings. Every 2-3 hours - 1 serving, drink it in small sips.
• Do not drink cold milk - it is less digestible. Warm gently or leave at room temperature.
• For better results, before and after unloading, reduce your usual caloric intake and do not overeat.
• Include additional low-calorie foods in your daily diet, otherwise the body will experience stress from a hunger strike.
• Unload once every 7–10 days. After three months, change the main product to avoid addiction.
• Reduce physical activity.

Table of permitted products

Combining foods with milk

Green tea. The dairy diet does not imply strict adherence to the consumption of only one product. Naturally, the same taste becomes boring. Therefore, you can diversify your diet for the day. Take one and a half liters of milk and brew green tea in it. Before doing this, you need to warm it up, and then add two spoons of tea into a glass with it. Next you should add the same amount of water.

Coffee

The whole benefit of caffeine is that it improves the digestive process. In this regard, metabolism in the body accelerates. Coffee combined with milk will definitely benefit you. The recipe is prepared similar to tea with milk. You need to take one and a half liters of milk, and choose coffee purely according to your taste preferences. In addition to a hot drink, you can add a couple of vegetables and fruits to your main diet.

Cocoa

Those who love chocolate should know that this product has long been famous for its benefits. Naturally, it can be prepared with water. But by choosing milk, you can enjoy the full taste and get the maximum amount of useful vitamins and substances from two products. But when you have a fasting day, you need to cook it without sugar. Of course, without sugar, cocoa will be bitter. If you want to somehow smooth out the taste of the drink, add dry fruits and nuts to your diet menu. For one and a half liters, 2-3 tablespoons of chocolate powder are given. If you are planning an outdoor holiday and want to take a warm drink with you, hot cocoa is what you need. Just don’t put it in a regular bottle, but pour it into a thermos.

Cottage cheese

Any fermented milk products consumed together with milk will bring positive results to your unloading. It goes well with cottage cheese. For half a liter of milk you can take half a kilogram of cottage cheese. Next, divide the total volume into several parts. Eat cottage cheese with milk throughout the day. But you shouldn't add sugar, as it adds extra calories.

Kefir

Kefir is made on the basis of milk, but it is absorbed much faster. The reason for this is special bacteria that promote this process. Both milk and kefir have a large amount of nutrients. If you spread two products throughout the day, you can get maximum effectiveness. True, kefir and milk should be consumed separately to avoid stomach upset. First half a liter of milk, two hours later half a liter of kefir. Unloading on these two dairy products will not only help you lose extra pounds, but will also promote favorable liver function.

Buckwheat

Buckwheat porridge is recognized as the healthiest product, as it contains a lot of calories and other elements. In general, this cereal has a very positive effect on the body, without disrupting any of its functions. A fasting day with milk and buckwheat is an effective method of losing weight and preventing the body. 200 g of buckwheat porridge will be enough for you for the day. A portion of buckwheat can be poured with milk or simply washed down with it.

Apples

The greatest satiety during a fasting day can be achieved with the help of apples. At first glance, this may seem like a clear contradiction between the products. But this does not mean that you need to wash down the apple you eat with milk. It will be enough to divide the diet into certain time intervals. For example, in the morning you drink a glass of milk, and towards lunchtime you eat apple slices. In addition, you can consume a little more cottage cheese, which will also have an important effect on the body.

It’s impossible to say for sure that such a fasting day will suit anyone. And there is no such diet that would absolutely help everyone lose weight and improve physical health. But there are certain methods that you can choose according to your own body's needs. You can choose the diet that suits you. But it is worth paying tribute to the dairy product.

Fully or partially limited products

• Full-fat milk and cottage cheese.
• Sweets: waffles, sugar, honey, ice cream, jam, condensed milk, sweet drinks, candy, jam, confectionery.
• Salt when cooking rice and buckwheat porridge.

Table of prohibited products

Options for dairy fasting days

There are several options for fasting days on milk, dairy and fermented milk products:

• on milk;
• on fermented baked milk;
• on kefir;
• with yogurt;
• on serum;
• on cottage cheese.

It is advisable to consider each of them separately.

With milk

Milk is a tasty and healthy product. In addition to proteins, fats, carbohydrates and amino acids, it contains minerals (phosphorus and calcium) and a large amount of vitamins (B (6,12,5,2,1,9), A,PP,D,E,C,H) . Vitamin B2 speeds up the metabolism in the body, making it possible to quickly lose excess weight.

When milk enters the stomach, it is exposed to gastric juice, after which it coagulates and only then is digested.

Not everyone can do unloading with milk. 15% of people have difficulty digesting milk protein, since their body does not secrete the enzyme that breaks down lactose. This often leads to fermentation in the intestines and indigestion. Milk can cause allergies, and not everyone can withstand hunger.

A diet based on milk is quite strict, since during the fasting period you cannot consume anything other than this product.

Unloading is carried out as follows. It is necessary to prepare 1.5 liters of milk, dividing it into 6 doses. It is prohibited to consume other drinks on the day of fasting. At night, it is recommended to drink a glass of warm milk with honey.

No less popular is the milk tea diet. The recipe uses hot boiled milk and green tea. The unloading is designed for 2 days, during which you can lose about 2 kg.

To do this, you need to brew tea. 1 tsp Pour a glass of boiling water over the tea leaves, cover with a lid and leave to brew for 5 minutes. Then add 100 ml of milk to the drink. It is recommended to drink 2 liters of milk tea during the day. Such unloading will not only allow you to lose weight, but also cleanse the liver and normalize metabolism. It is recommended to do it once a week.

On ryazhenka

Compared to other fermented milk products, fermented baked milk contains much more protein and is higher in calories. For weight loss, it is best to use a product with a fat content of 2.5%.

The principle of unloading is to consume 2 liters of fermented baked milk during the day. You cannot eat other foods during this period. Thus, without much effort, you can lose more than 2 kg of weight. Due to the nutritional value of fermented baked milk, during diet therapy the feeling of hunger will practically not be felt.

The benefits of ryazhenka

The use of this product is contraindicated for chronic gastritis, allergies and gastrointestinal diseases.

On kefir

Kefir is one of the most suitable lactic acid products that can be used for weight loss. Unloading based on it is not inferior in popularity even to the buckwheat diet. In 1 kefir day you can lose up to 2 kilograms of excess weight. In addition, this product has excellent taste and is relatively inexpensive.

Its usefulness is due to its ability to remove excess fluid from the body and restore intestinal microflora.

There are several options for diets based on it. Classic kefir fasting is carried out once every 2 weeks and involves drinking 2 liters of low-fat kefir during the day.

Before unloading, sugar and salt should be excluded from the diet, which interfere with the work of bifidobacteria. To consolidate the results, you should not overeat before or after the diet. It is recommended to include buckwheat, lean meat, green tea, fruit juices in your diet, then add vegetables and fruits.

During treatment, mental work and intense physical activity should be avoided. Walking in the fresh air will be useful.

An equally popular option is kefir-apple unloading. To carry it out, you need to prepare 5 medium-sized apples and 1.5 liters of kefir. Cut the apples into slices, removing the seeds, and pour kefir over them. This quantity of products is designed for 1 day.

Buckwheat in combination with kefir shows good results. For a fasting day, you will need to prepare buckwheat porridge. To do this, take 170 g of buckwheat, pour 130 ml of boiling water over it, cover, wrap and leave to steam for 12 hours.

Divide the finished porridge into 5 servings and consume throughout the day, washed down with kefir.

With curdled milk

Yogurt is popular among healthy eating enthusiasts. This product has a cleansing effect on the body and promotes the proliferation of beneficial microorganisms in the intestines. Unloading with yogurt is carried out once every 14 days. In this case, the duration of diet therapy is 2 days.

To achieve an effective effect, during the fasting day you should drink 1 glass of yogurt every 3 hours.

On serum

Whey exercises have also gained popularity. Despite the fact that this is a by-product obtained from the souring of milk, it contains a lot of biologically active components: lactic acid, sugar, trace elements (P, Ca, K, Mg), vitamins (groups B, PP, A and E). This lactic acid product does not contain fat or cholesterol.

The drink cleanses the blood, normalizes metabolism, helps remove excess fluid from the body and prevents the formation of edema.

To carry out the fasting day, you should prepare 1.5 liters of whey, which will need to be drunk in 6 doses. During the diet, you can eat a small piece of black bread for lunch.

This drink is best absorbed when consumed slowly. It is recommended to drink it in small sips.

On cottage cheese

Unloading on cottage cheese allows you to lose 0.5 kilograms of excess weight. For weight loss, it is recommended to use a low-fat product, the calorie content of which does not exceed 105 kcal per 100 g. It is digested much easier and brings more benefits than fatty cottage cheese.

It is assumed to consume 600 g of curd product and 1.5 liters of liquid. You can use mineral water, fruit juices, kefir and herbal infusions.

To enhance the taste, you can add some raisins to the main dish.

It is recommended to spend cottage cheese day once a week. On the eve of unloading, fatty, fried and spicy foods, high-calorie foods, alcoholic drinks and coffee should be excluded from the diet.

During diet therapy, nervous and physical overload should be avoided.

Advantages and disadvantages

Fermented milk products to cleanse the body

Fermented milk products with low fat content are considered especially useful for cleansing the body. They activate the intestines and displace pathogenic microflora from it.

The products contain beneficial bacteria that normalize the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract and prevent the development of diseases of the digestive system.

Another effect of the products that is important for overweight people is the acceleration of intestinal motility. Due to this property, metabolism in the body is normalized, which also affects body weight.

Fasting day with milk: reviews and results

The mono-diet should only be carried out for one day due to its imbalance. When taking fasting days, you need to constantly change their options so as not to harm your health. There is no need to hope that changes will occur in the body in a day. Any fasting cannot be a substitute for healthy eating on the remaining days of the week. Reviews indicate that the mistake of many is increased consumption of food after fasting and restoration of lost weight.

• “... I couldn’t decide on fasting days: I was afraid and confident that I couldn’t stand it and would break down in the evening. But then I decided to go on an apple fast - I must say that it was difficult for me. The appetite was brutal. Next time I decided to have milk with black bread, and a week later with bananas (4 glasses of milk and three bananas). Both options went well. I can’t say that the weight loss was great, but I managed it easily and my stomach didn’t hurt (I suffer from gastritis with high acidity). But I didn’t stick to proper nutrition on the rest of the days, so the weight gradually gained and all my attempts to unload were reduced to zero.”
• “... My sister recovered after giving birth and began doing fasting days against the backdrop of dietary restrictions. I did different unloadings, including milk. What I liked most was the combination of milk and cottage cheese - tasty, satisfying, well tolerated and healthy. A month later, I noticed that I began to gradually lose weight, although on the day of unloading it took 700 g, and the next day half was restored. I came to the conclusion that only constant, targeted healthy eating is the path to weight loss.”

How to drink milk correctly

According to experts, it is best to drink homemade or fresh milk on a fasting day. It is not recommended to boil a dairy product, as during the heating process mucus is formed, which has a bad effect on digestion. Also, when you have a fasting day, you should give up some physical activity. But to stay energized, you can take a shower in the morning.

As mentioned above in the text, no more than one and a half liters of milk are produced per day. You distribute it in small portions throughout the day. You need to drink the milk drink in small sips. It’s also convenient to do this through a straw. After drinking, rinse your mouth. Because microflora can develop from milk bacteria.

It is better not to combine third-party drinks with a dairy product. It may be difficult for your body to accept this product, so you can slightly reduce your drinking rate. It’s even better to combine a milk drink with various of the products listed above. It is very tasty and healthy to consume milk with some fruits. As you can see, organizing a fasting day on it is very effective. In addition, such a diet does not harm the body and you can fully enjoy the taste of food.
