Lymphatic drainage diet – effectiveness and reviews through the eyes of a nutritionist

All our desires to lose weight begin with finding the most effective diet. But how to choose from a million options and not harm your health?

What is the most effective diet?

Preference is given to those diets about which the most positive reviews. The second selection criterion is health benefits.

• You could tell how to properly approach the process of losing weight in order not only to reduce weight, but also to keep it.
• One could mention a rational, balanced diet, which contains enough proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
• One could also talk about how to properly compose a diet on your own, taking into account taste preferences.

But we will limit ourselves to just one remark, which has been confirmed by recent studies.

Scientists wondered which of the diets is the most effective – vegetarian, protein-rich (for example, the Kremlin) or balanced (for example, Mediterranean). In total, about seven different diets were chosen, the most popular in recent years. It turned out that with equal calorie content and with a different set of products, there is no difference in efficiency between them. It’s all about a calorie deficit.

So, you can eat anything, the restrictions apply only to the volume and, as a result, the daily calorie intake.

If you can cope with this task on your own, you can forget about diets forever. But it happens that it is difficult to adhere to such recommendations. The constant feeling of hunger, the constant thoughts of mountains of food on large plates, put all efforts at risk. A delayed feeling of satiety may be the cause.
