Diet for the blood group and separate meals have much in common. In particular, the same principle: do not mix proteins and carbohydrates. We will tell in detail what is important to observe for a comfortable weight loss on a diet for the blood group.
Lose weight comfortably on a diet for the blood group
What is a comfortable weight loss? This means that you should not misbehave yourself with unloved foods, starvation and too small portions. The diet should also be convenient for you.
If you are in the office every day, and you every couple of hours are recommended dishes for a couple, then probably, you should change either the diet regime or the office.
One of the important principles of weight loss and recovery thanks to a diet for the blood group - no abrupt transition from the usual diet to the cardinally different. This is a great stress for the body, it can begin to resist, poorly digest food, and poorly digested foods are the fat deposits on your hips and back. And not only there.
Get used to a new diet for a little bit, gradually excluding from the diet those products that do not suit you, and replacing them with others - more useful. It can be a week or two for adaptation.
So a diet for the blood group will enter your life gently, imperceptibly and correctly.
What should I do before a blood group diet?
Be sure to go to a consultation with a gastroenterologist or nutritionist. The doctor should ask you about your eating habits, learn about your diseases, relate your lifestyle, age and physical activity to the amount of calories that is optimal for you.
Agree that the number of calories and diet for the athlete will be completely different than for the scientist.
In the process of diet
Do not be lazy again to go to the doctor if your health worsened. So, either you do not have enough calories, or some product should be excluded from the diet or, conversely, add. And it is absolutely necessary to consult a doctor if you have any diseases during a diet.
The doctor will adjust your list of products, exercise (they help digestion and digestion of food) and tell you how to proceed.
Why are proteins and carbohydrates incompatible?
For example, you ate a piece of meat and immediately had a cucumber. Meat - proteins, cucumber - carbohydrates. Meat is digested and digested for a long time - from 5 hours. The cucumber is absorbed immediately.
One process will interfere with another, and both products will be reluctantly perceived by the body. As a result - fatty deposits.
Eat protein and carbohydrates separately. And because of the low rate of assimilation of proteins, it is desirable to take them until 2pm, so they have time to split and digest. But carbohydrates (cucumber (vegetable), apple, pear, other fresh fruits) can be eaten in the evening.
Those products that you appear on the list of neutral for your blood group can be consumed whenever you want - for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
In a diet for the blood group, you can make snacks between 3 basic meals.
Diet and Drinks
When you eat this or that dish, drinks can be good for them, or they can be completely unacceptable. Therefore, the compatibility of drinks with dishes is very important.
If your dish consists of carbohydrates (cucumber salad), do not drink it with sour juice from sour berries. This will trigger unwanted oxidation processes in the gastrointestinal tract.
But with carbohydrates, you can safely drink decoctions of herbs, green teas, mineral water without gas or lightly carbonated, and coffee.
If now you have on the table protein dishes, they can be washed down with fruit juice (something that can not be done after a carbohydrate meal). Too concentrated juices can be diluted with mineral water.
Teas from herbs and green also go well with proteins. You can also mineral water without gas, wine (dry) and coffee.
Coffee is suitable for any type of food. The same can be said about green tea. This is a universal drink, which you can combine with both proteins and carbohydrates.
[And a few more facts about blood types
Many people practice salt-free diets. In the diet for the blood group this is not. Salt is allowed. Moreover - if you have a deficiency of iodine in the body, replenish it by salting the dishes with iodized salt.
With regard to spices, then when developing a diet for any blood type, it is better not to eat pepper-peas. Of the types of peppercorns, only Jamaican pepper is allowed - it more gently affects the body.
