Japanese diet

The Japanese diet has long proven its effectiveness in losing weight.No other diet can compare with its results, but it allows all representatives of the fair sex to stay beautiful and in shape for many years.

In addition, one of the advantages of the diet is the minimal cost of money and the availability of products.That doesn't mean the menu will only have rice porridge;it also includes protein and vegetable foods.

There are many varieties of it in the world - rice, salt-free, and a complete nutritional system has been developed for each of them.

Operating principle

The effect of weight loss on the Japanese diet can be achieved thanks to three principles.They help to achieve the desired result and maintain it at a constant level for a long time:

1. They use a low-calorie method
   Due to the small amount of calories entering the body, it has to use its own reserves as "fuel", which leads to the effective shedding of excess kilos.
2. High protein content
   This leads to the fact that the body begins to burn excess fat at an accelerated rate due to the high energy consumption spent on protein processing.
3. Low salinity
   This contributes to the beneficial effect of the diet on the body - blood pressure normalizes, excess fluid can be removed from the tissues, and tissue swelling ceases.

This type of diet is suitable for people with different configurations and desires for efficiency.For example, to get rid of 4-5 extra pounds, you need to follow the chosen diet for seven days.

If you need to lose up to 10 kg, the duration is doubled accordingly, to 14 days.In some cases, the Japanese diet is allowed for 1 month if there are no contraindications.
