Japanese diet

The Japanese diet has long proven its effectiveness in losing weight for many.No other diet can compare with its results, but it allows every woman of the fairer sex to remain beautiful and maintain shape for many years.

Also, one of the advantages of the diet is its minimal monetary costs and the availability of products.This does not mean that the menu will only contain rice porridge;also includes protein and plant foods.

There are many varieties of it in the world - rice, unsalted, and a whole nutritional scheme has been developed for each.

Principle of action

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

1. A low-calorie method is used
   Due to the small amount of calories entering the body, it must use its own reserves as "fuel", which leads to an effective loss of extra pounds.
2. High protein content
   This leads to the fact that the body begins to burn excess fat at an accelerated rate due to the large expenditure of energy for protein processing.
3. Low salt content
   This contributes to the beneficial effect of the diet on the body - blood pressure is normalized, excess fluid is removed from the tissues, and tissue swelling is removed.

This type of diet is suitable for people with different configurations and desire for efficiency.For example, to get rid of 4-5 extra kilograms, you will have to adhere to the selected type of diet for seven days.

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