Boiled diet

General rules

Nutritionists say that you can lose weight without any problems on a simple cooked diet. In approximately 14 days, following the menu and regimen, you can remove up to 10 extra kg. The main principle of the diet is to consume exclusively boiled foods, which allows you to:

• preserve the maximum usefulness and at the same time do not increase the calorie content and harm from food, because no fat is used during cooking and, as a result, trans fats or carcinogens are not formed, as happens, for example, when frying;
• reduce the load on the liver, pancreas, stomach and generally improve the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract; in addition, pectins are better absorbed, the intestines are cleansed, toxins and the body’s condition improves.

Remember that meals should be fractional - in small portions (no more than 300 g), 4-6 times during the day, you need to finish your meal no later than 19:00. Losing weight and reducing daily calorie intake does not occur through fasting, but by eliminating sweets, flour and fried foods from the diet.

An effective diet based on boiled food

A boiled diet is a good way not only to get rid of a few extra pounds , but also to improve digestion and acquire healthy eating habits.
The duration of this diet is 14 days. The basis of the boiled diet is, as the name implies, mainly food prepared by boiling or steaming - these are vegetables, cereals, lean meat and fish. This cooking method is the most gentle on food. In boiled foods, most of the beneficial substances that are destroyed by frying are retained, and harmful carcinogenic substances are not formed, as, for example, in fried foods. In addition, cooked foods, prepared without the use of fats and oils, contain very few calories.

When eating boiled food during a diet, your digestive system experiences less stress , the food you eat is better absorbed, and therefore brings more benefits. Some substances, for example, pectins, are absorbed much better when cooked than raw. The same can be said about cabbage.

The calorie content of the diet during the boiled diet is reduced mainly due to the exclusion of fatty and fried foods, as well as bread, flour products and sweets. If you are used to eating a lot of fatty foods, confectionery, various semi-finished products, and also salting your food abundantly, then at first the cooked diet will seem bland and tasteless to you. In this case, a boiled diet will be even more useful for you - this is a good opportunity to change your eating habits and fall in love with wholesome healthy food, which in the future will have a very positive effect not only on your figure, but also on your health.
