Nut diet requirements

Nut techniques for transforming the figure are presented in different versions. Nuts are fatty foods, so most nut diets are short lived.

You can just practice fasting days on nuts, but not more than one or two times a week. So in a month, with minimal health risk, you can lose 3-4 extra pounds. During the fasting day, you need to eat up to 100 grams of any nuts (you can combine different types). Try to eat fractionally and arrange at least 4-5 mini-meals a day. It is allowed to supplement the nut diet with unsweetened green tea and clean non-carbonated water. As a rule, in one fasting day, weight losses are 0,5-1 kg (depending on the individual characteristics of the organism).

You can lose up to two kilograms of excess weight using XNUMX-day nut diet, the daily diet of which involves the use of 50 g of nuts, 100 g of fish or poultry fillets, as well as cucumbers and tomatoes. It is recommended to refuse salt during the diet. If this is difficult for you, then at least do not over-salt the dishes. Extend the duration of this nutty diet up to five days it is possible if you add a glass of fermented milk product (for example, kefir or yogurt), fat-free or 1% to the daily menu. In all nutty diet options, it is best to stick to a fractional diet. This will help avoid acute hunger and, as a result, a breakdown with the technique.

If you cannot imagine your life without fruit, you can experience nut-fruit diet… You can adhere to it for up to three to four days. When choosing fruits for consumption, it is better to opt for non-starchy type products. In the morning, preferably in the first half hour after waking up, you should drink a glass of freshly squeezed juice. After 2 hours, eat your 2 favorite fruits and a couple of nuts. Then repeat the sequence and approximate composition: juice, fruits with nuts and just nuts. You should consume no more than 100 grams of nuts per day. Drink plenty of fluids – at least eight glasses of clean water daily.

If the proposed diets seem strict enough to you, you can resort to 10 Day Nut Diet, after which, as a rule, about 3-4 kilograms of excess weight also goes away. The diet menu is soft, therefore, in addition to being effective in terms of weight loss, it can cleanse the body and improve its functioning. The main requirements of this nut method include the fact that first of all you need to say “no” to sweet and starchy foods. We replace these high-calorie delicacies with dried fruits, nuts, as well as various vegetables and herbs. You can eat porridge (best in the morning), drink fruit and dried fruit compotes without sugar. Three meals a day are recommended. A single serving of food should not exceed 250 g.

So that the lost weight does not return after the diet, it is necessary to get out of it correctly. It is necessary to introduce previously forbidden foods gradually and increase the calorie content of the diet very smoothly. Try to keep the correct eating habits in the future – eat fractional and small portions, observe the drinking regime and be friends with healthy foods.

Disadvantages of a nutty diet

• The disadvantages of the nut diet include the fact that some of its types (three-day technique, fasting days) have a rather meager diet. Therefore, despite the satiety of the nuts themselves, you may experience hunger.
• If you are used to eating abundantly and allowing yourself to be harmful, then during the diet you cannot do without serious volitional efforts, because you will need to give up, at least, sweets and starchy foods.
• It is also worth noting that this technique cannot throw off a large amount of kilograms, so it is suitable only for those who need to lose up to 5 kg. If you have a lot of excess weight, then one nut method is unlikely to do it.
