Fasting days are much healthier and more effective than prolonged food restriction.
Moreover, due to the one-day limit, you can “start” the metabolism, to give rest to liver and heart and even clean the whole body.
“It is important to remember that fasting is not starvation, it is not necessary to spend the whole day only on mineral water. I recommend this method only after lavish feasts with plenty of alcohol poisoning or return from holiday, where “all inclusive,” says dietician Lyudmila Babich.
Variants of days of discharge – a great many, you can choose the one or those products that suit you. “For example, I really like the fasting day on apples, since I like them a lot, and the girlfriend says that the day on yogurt drops 2kg and gets rid of digestive problems. Whatever you choose, remember that in the fasting day you should consume enough liquids and not to starve yourself to slowed metabolism. It is also important to choose the right day. Psychologically easier, if it is not a day off, a day when the refrigerator in the next room, and access to products can be difficult. Even better, if during the week you have the busiest day at work – he should be handling because you just have no time to dream about the pies and the cakes,” advises the specialist.
The most popular fasting days:
– On the apples. Provides the body with nutrients and micronutrients. But is contraindicated in hyperacidity of the stomach and peptic ulcer disease. A day is acceptable to eat up to four pounds of apples, so hungry you just will not. Can be eaten raw or baked apples.
