Easy to use and effective apple diet has become popular due to its availability and fast results. Over time, it was supplemented with kefir, which reduces the natural acidity of apples. In the course of such “upgrades”, the female gender derived, through personal experimentation, a new method of losing weight. To take the kefir-apple diet into service, you need to figure out how to use it and whether it suits you at all.
What is the diet
The essence of this course is very simple: you only need to eat apples and drink kefir. The main thing is to do it right. A prerequisite will be: do not add absolutely anything except unsweetened green tea. Everything else that a modern person usually gets used to (coffee, spices, fast food) is under the strictest ban. You can use only two of these products with a certain interval of time. A day accounts for 1 apple 6 times a day and the same number of times for 250 ml of fermented milk product.
Kefir contains a lot of minerals, amino acids and vitamins of groups B, E, A, PP. It is easily absorbed and has a beneficial effect on the biological environment of the stomach. The bacteria that make up its composition have healing and strengthening properties. It is important for the diet to carefully choose this product. High-quality and natural kefir can not have a shelf life of more than 10 days. If the packaging indicates a period of a month, this means that preservatives and antibiotics are added to the drink. Such a product is better not to choose. The bottle should be completely transparent. So it will be possible to consider the texture and condition of kefir. If it is stratified, has a precipitate or a yellowish color – it is most likely damaged or the storage conditions are violated.
The second component is apples. They are also full of nutrients and vitamins. For losing weight, the main component of this fruit is fiber. These are dietary plant fibers in the form of connective tissue. The body spends a lot of energy on their assimilation, due to which fat is burned during the diet.
Non-acidic varieties are best suited for losing weight: Golden Delicious, Jonagold, Idared, Antonovka, etc. Although opinions differ here. Most often advised to choose green varieties. However, these fruits have high acidity. In conditions of severely curtailed diet, it can be hazardous to health. When buying fruits, you need to properly grope them, to see if there are brown and cloudy spots.
Preparing for a diet
First you need to decide whether you need such sharp restrictions in food. Kefir-apple diet is considered a tough and emergency diet. More than one day to resort to it is necessary only in extreme cases. If there is time for more benign and long-lasting methods, from a medical point of view, it is better to choose them.
Be sure to pay attention to the contraindications to this diet. People with hypertension, problems with the stomach or the digestive tract are not allowed to resort to such methods on their own. Women during lactation (especially pregnancy) are strictly contraindicated such dietary restrictions.
The day before the diet you need to prepare your body. Meals should consist of low-calorie cooked and raw foods.
Morning: a portion of oatmeal on water without sugar and salt, green tea;
Lunch: 150 gr boiled chicken or fish fillet steamed, one tomato or cucumber;
Evening: a plate of fruit or vegetable salad, juice;
Before going to bed: a glass of warm water with a teaspoon of honey.
Such training will make it easier to transfer future “deprivation” during a diet. In addition, it can be an indicator of whether the kefir-apple method is suitable. If the first day becomes bad, feel dizzy, nausea appears – this is a sign that the body will not sustain a future diet. In this case, you need to wait at least 2 of the day and try other options.
Another important point of preparation will be the selection of the appropriate period. If in the near future important and time-consuming matters are expected (session, reports, holidays), it is better to postpone the diet. Sports will be hard. They are also better to cancel during the whole cycle. Instead of heavy exercises, walk in the fresh air and light exercises in the morning are suitable.
Kefir-apple diet: options
There are several common ways to lose weight on apples and yogurt. The most popular of these is the 7 days diet.
As already mentioned, the list of products will consist of only two components. Sometimes you can add green tea instead of coffee or snacks. It is important to follow a clear sequence and alternation of ingredients. On the day should be 6 meals. To do this, you need respectively 6 large apples and 1,5 liters of kefir.
The power plan is very simple. First you need to eat one apple, and after half an hour drink the prescribed batch of drink (250 gr). And so six times a day during the week.
So it will look like:
7: 00 – one apple;
7: 30 – 250 grams of kefir;
10: 00 – one apple;
10: 30 – kefir;
12: 00 – an apple and so on.
The last meal should take place 2-2,5 hours before bedtime. In the morning and at lunch you can drink tea, and throughout the day – water without gas. If the state of health at any stage deteriorates markedly – you must immediately stop the diet.
Option kefir-apple menu is designed for large losses in weight. However, it is transferred a little more difficult.
| Days | Product |
|---|---|
| First Second The third | Only low-fat kefir, at 1,5 liters per day |
| Fourth Fifth Sixth | Only apples, 6 pieces per day |
| Seventh Eighth Ninth | Only low-fat kefir in the same quantity |
It is worth noting that this method is suitable only for the strong in spirit. Consuming just one product for 3 days is hard and not for everyone. But, as evidenced by reviews that have lost weight, weight loss ranges from 7 kg and more. Doctors to such “executions” are categorically and do not advise to observe such a diet for more than 3 days.
The only acceptable option for this system, from the point of view of doctors, may be a short course. It lasts from 1 to 3 days. During this period, the menu will look like in the 7-day weight loss method. This method is aimed not at the loss of extra pounds, but at cleansing the body. If you use a “one-day” – it will be a fasting day, during which the intestines are cleansed, metabolism and digestion are normalized. Such events will be useful to everyone. In a few days, you can not only remove harmful components and ballast, but also build up to 2 kg.
The right way out of the diet
Many such express diets are accompanied by guaranteed weight loss. They are distinguished by strict rules and a good result. But such techniques also have an unpleasant side effect. Reviews of medics on a diet on one kefir and apples are rarely positive. And annoying kilos are almost always as rapidly returning to their place.
To fix the results you can. To do this, you have to stock up on the absolute reluctance to repeat the whole system of losing weight again and patience.
The correct exit from the apple diet should take another 4-5 days. In the first – it is allowed to eat 250 gr of boiled lean meat. Suitable chicken, rabbit or veal. Salt and spices are best avoided. On the same day you can eat some steamed or raw vegetables. The frequency of meals should be reduced to 4-5 times.
In the following stages, light soups, vegetable stews, berries and nuts are allowed. Fat broths, cereals, red meat and fish return to the diet only after 5-6 days.
Soup recipe for an easy way out of the diet
Liquid food will help restore the normal acidity of the stomach and the water-alkaline balance in those who have lost weight. This soup can be prepared for the future and it will be enough for the entire period of output.
For the soup you need to take:
- 2 medium potatoes;
- 2 of Bulgarian peppers;
- 200 gr ripe pumpkin;
- 1 onions;
- 2-3 cloves of garlic;
- 1-1,5 liters of vegetable broth;

Baked vegetables must be placed in a blender and beat, adding broth. Ready soup has a thick consistency and a bright appetizing look.
