The classic Maggi diet is based on the use of a significant amount of protein foods, namely chicken eggs. However, vegetarians cannot eat eggs, and they should not be eaten by people with high blood cholesterol levels. Therefore, nutritionists offer an alternative method of losing weight, which involves replacing eggs with cottage cheese. This product is rich in calcium, perfectly absorbed by the body and very tasty, especially when combined with fruits.
It is necessary to choose cottage cheese correctly. As a rule, all diets involve eating a low-fat product. However, if the body does not get enough fat from food, then the risk of developing a skin problem increases. Moreover, the body can react to a lack of fat in such a way that it begins to transform all incoming substances into its own fat reserves. This will lead to the fact that the process of losing weight will be slowed down. Therefore, Maggi’s curd diet suggests building a diet on cottage cheese with 3-5% fat content.
