Overweight is a scourge of modern society, especially large cities with their crazy rhythm. Unbalanced diet, sedentary work, daily stresses - and an extra kilogram already at the waist. This state of things not only begins to deliver to the owner or hostess not only psychological discomfort. Overweight is a direct way to a medical cot. Everyone knows how obesity adversely affects the entire human body: increased stress on the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal system, the inability to conceive and endure, give birth to a child for a woman of childbearing age, increases the risk of diabetes mellitus, other disruptions in metabolic processes and much - much more.

In such a situation, maintaining a normal weight is a serious enough question, which many try to solve on their own. But that the restrictions in nutrition are beneficial, but not negatively impacted on health, exacerbating the situation and bringing new complications, it is necessary to select such a method carefully. It is desirable that this process begins after the examination of the body and with the consent of a specialist.

Suffice it to estimate the dieticians and physicians diet for weight loss with ginger, which not only allows you to lose the hated kilograms, but also fills the human body with a lot of nutritious nutrients.

Quite often, respondents ask a well-grounded question of how to take the medicinal root correctly in order to achieve the expected result.

The native land of this plant is tropical Africa. Initially, its taste and healing qualities were known and claimed by ancient people. Modern science and cooking only expanded the field of its application. Today, diets based on ginger are very popular. The main thing is that there is enough knowledge to conduct it. The main trump card of a strict diet is that a person does not have to significantly change his eating habits, limit food and starve.

Nutritionists call the process of weight loss on the basis of ginger diet for the lazy. Those who are constantly preoccupied with their figure know that this is every minute, everyday hard work. But the reception of dishes with this spice makes this procedure not only effective, but tasty, useful and easier. Many people who have gone through this stage have appreciated this method of losing weight.

So what is the essence of the method? The considered plant, and more specifically the root, nature has provided with rather unique properties that help to activate metabolic processes in the human body, which is a priority in the procedure of getting rid of excess weight. The substances included in its composition have a beneficial effect on blood circulation and improve blood flow to organs and systems, allowing timely and complete delivery of the substances necessary for their normal functioning. It is this peculiarity of the ginger root that allows it to be used in this particular area of dietetics and cosmetology.

The first thing you need to do to start the process of losing weight is to reduce the caloric intake. In this situation, no rigid restriction is involved. It is quite enough to reduce the amount of consumed portions and limit the use of a number of foods that are particularly caloric.

The essence of diet

And the basis of the diet is throughout the day the consumption of various drinks prepared on the basis of this spice.

Here is one of the recipes for ginger tea, which can be used both in a "pure" form, and as a basis for fantasy and cooking more sophisticated, refined, but healthy drinks.

To make tea, take a small piece of the root, peel it and chop it. 25 g of the resulting "kashka" put in a two-liter thermos, which is completely filled with boiling water. Seal the hermetic hermetically and leave alone for the rest of the night. In the morning, the ginger drink is ready. Such an elixir should not be drunk on a lot throughout the day. The recommended daily volume of liquid should be from one and a half to two liters. If desired, in it, just before use, you can add a few drops of lemon juice or a bit of natural honey.

But only one given drink does not limit the considered diet. There is a list of products that are desirable in the diet of losing weight and those that should be limited or even excluded from their menu.

Approximate diet menu for weight loss with ginger

For example, you can suggest several options for the daily menu:

After waking up, drink a glass of warm drink from the thermos. This will help to awaken the body and start the digestive organs, preparing them for work.

Breakfast:

  • Egg "poached"
  • A piece of bread.
  • A small piece of butter.
  • Ginger tea.

Lunch: an apple.

Dinner:

  • Lenten borsch.
  • Stewed chicken breast in lemon sauce.
  • Salad from fresh cabbage.
  • Berry mousse.

Snack:

  • Tea with a root of ginger and lemon.
  • Galette cookies.

Dinner:

  • Mashed potatoes.
  • Boiled beef in pear sauce.
  • Fresh cucumbers and tomatoes.
  • Ginger tea with cinnamon.

Before going to bed, drink a glass of drink based on this spice.

The restriction in the products in itself contributes to the fruitful weight loss, and the root of ginger makes this process more effective. That is, instead of three to five kilograms a month can go from 8 to 10. This intensity of weight loss is also good because it has a low tendency to return.

It will not be superfluous against the background of a diet with ginger, to connect and exercise.

We should give a couple more recommendations:

  • The food should be fractional, at least six times a day.
  • Ginger tea can be taken throughout the day, no more than 150 ml per reception. A greater amount of liquid can cause heartburn, especially if there is a problem with the digestive system in a person's history. If there are no such problems, the amount of tea can be increased.
  • A glass of drink can be taken shortly before taking the main dishes. This approach prepares the digestive tract for work, so the procedure for digestion and utilization will be more active.
