Almost all children have a temporary effect. Usually, with a return to the usual stereotype of diet, the body regains the lost pounds, and sometimes increases.
The Dukan diet helps not only to lose weight quickly, but also to consolidate the results. Unlike other monogamous diets, Dukan's menu contains many delicious and healthy recipes.
Everything you need to know about the Dukan diet
As a physician, Pierre Ducane has been developing effective weight loss techniques for years. Its development is a high-protein diet with minimal carbohydrate intake at a certain stage. In the first stages, all fats are completely excluded.
This technique is good because the consumption of protein, even in large quantities, does not lead to the deposition of excess weight.
Unlike simple carbohydrates and fats, proteins can be eaten in unlimited quantities, but for each organism individually. Despite all this, you need to be careful about your own health, because the diet contains not only pluses, but also minuses.
Benefits of a child:
- rapid weight loss, due to low-calorie low-fat foods;
- consolidation of results, thanks to the correct exit from the diet;
- diet will not lead to loss of muscle mass, due to the large amount of protein products;
- the body receives all amino acids;
- salt is not excluded, unlike many other diets that lead to deterioration of bone structure and dehydration;
minuses:
- acid-base balance is disturbed;
- due to lack of fat, the work of the gastrointestinal tract is disturbed;
- renal function deteriorates due to large amounts of protein consumed.
Stages of Dukan protein diet
Dukan divided the diet method into four phases. Each of them allows certain products, but proteins are still preferred. The doctor competently compiled the diet, gradually adding variety to the menu.
Stages Dukan child:
- Attack;
- alternation;
- Repair;
- Stabilization.
The first two focus on weight loss, the last two aim to maintain results. Each of them was given a certain amount of time.
"Attack" phase
The first phase of "Attack" contains only protein products. At this point, there is an instant weight loss, due to the removal of a large amount of fluid from the body. This is very motivating for weight loss, but it should be understood that it is not fat that is lost, but water.
Then the body gradually gets fat, only after consuming glycogen from the liver. So, the phase does not contain carbohydrates, otherwise the weight will not decrease quickly.
During the first phase, a tablespoon of oat bran is allowed. This is the only carbohydrate allowed at this stage.
This amount of bran will not interfere with weight loss, but will also prevent disruption of proper bowel function, because it contains fiber.
Be sure to consume plenty of purified water every day. Approximately thirty milliliters for every pound of weight.
Because proteins are consumed in unlimited quantities, water serves as an aid in the excretion of ammonia, the product of protein breakdown. This is the most difficult period in the diet. The phase should not last longer than a week. Products are not allowed to cook in oil, non-stick coating is used for frying, barbecue. It can be baked, boiled, steamed.
