Let's talk about the pros first

The advantages of the chemical diet include its high performance. For a month of such a diet, you can lose twelve to fifteen kilograms. But it's not so little, right?

The next advantage of the technique is that it improves the digestion process, as it saturates the human body with useful vitamins and minerals.

What are the main rules of this system?

Basic principles of the methodology

According to reviews, with a chemical diet, you can effectively lose weight if you strictly adhere to the diet provided for by it. Here's what to look out for:

• Dishes should not be s alted. If you can't cut out the seasoning entirely, keep the s alt to a minimum.
• If the exact volume or weight of the product is not given in the menu, then it can be consumed in unlimited quantities.
• The last meal should be taken four to five hours before bedtime.
• Food should be steamed, boiled or baked.
• Don't forget the liquid! At least one and a half liters of clean water without gas should be beaten out per day, and this is not counting tea, coffee and first courses. However, remember that it is not recommended to drink meals. You can also diversify your diet with herbal teas, coffee, without adding sugar or cream.
• In no case should you swap days, weeks or products from the menu below. Remember, diet is based on the chemical reactions that take place within us.
• If you break loose or mix something up, don't be discouraged. Start eating bymethod all over again, from the very first day, and don't forget - you will succeed!
• This diet should be accompanied by moderate physical activity. The usual morning exercises or simple walks on foot are enough.
• If you want to have a snack, you can do it two hours after the main meal, eating a small amount of fresh vegetables.

So, we smoothly moved on to one of the main questions: what foods are allowed and which are prohibited by this nutritional technique?

What can you eat

The very first and most important thing is to eat chicken eggs, as well as grapefruits, which can be replaced with oranges. In general, grapefruits are indicated in the original chemical diet (for 4 weeks or 2 weeks), since they have the necessary microelements and substances that promote fat burning. However, if it is expensive for you to buy these fruits, or you live in an area where they are not sold, then you can stop at oranges.

What other fruits can you eat? First of all, pineapples, cherries, lemons, tangerines, kiwi, which are also considered excellent fat burners. Allowed fruits also include apples, watermelon, melon, peaches.

What about vegetables? This food system involves the use of eggplant, cabbage, carrots, olives, peppers, radishes, beets, tomatoes, lettuce, cucumbers.

Is that all? Of course not. According to the original menu of this food system, you can eat bran bread, feta cheese and cottage cheese, olive oil, chicken meat and beef. Notforget about fish and seafood. The menu should include hake, flounder, cod, pollock.

You can also diversify the menu with seasonings. However, be careful, not all spices are allowed, but only dried paprika, basil, allspice, vinegar or rosemary.

What can't you eat?

Among the prohibited foods, it is necessary to mention all pasta and carbonated drinks that contribute to metabolic disorders. You should also completely forget about sausages, fastwood and white bread. And, of course, make up your mind to spend time without confectionery products such as cookies, cakes, sweets. If you really want glucose, then the usual sweets can be replaced with honey, dried fruits, marmalade. Alcoholic beverages are also contraindicated products in the food system we are interested in.

But that's not all. Interestingly, the list of unacceptable foods includes some vegetables and fruits. For example, these are potatoes, grapes, figs, mangoes and bananas. Dates, jam, ice cream and chocolate are also prohibited, and, of course, mayonnaise, lard, ham, pork, veal and lamb. Unacceptable seafood includes salmon, trout and salmon.

Leaving gradually

This is very important, because if you immediately pounce on sweets, pastries and fat, you can not only gain weight even more than you were, but also harm your stomach. Prohibited foods should be introduced gradually, increasing physical activity. For example, you can do fitness or intense jogging in the morning. Or maybe you don’t want to return to junk food at all, and the chemical diet will become not only a food system for you, but also a way of life.

However, it is important not to overdo it here.

Real reviews

After studying the reviews of those who have lost weight about the chemical diet, you can understand that it suits almost everyone. Most of those who adhered to this technique lost weight, and not just two or three kilograms, but alsoseven, and even all ten!

On the other hand, people say that sticking to the diet is not so easy. Following the regimen, many who lost weight began to hate eggs and could no longer put them in their mouths. Others found it difficult to keep a long interval between meals.

However, all these nuances are nothing compared to the brilliant results.
