Pros and cons of the "Kremlin" diet

Pros and cons of the "Kremlin" diet

The advantages include:

  1. A great way to fortify yourself for meat eaters. The steak would be a great contrast when dieting.
  2. No one will force you to exclude seasonings, pickles and marinades from your diet, eat to your health. You can even combine fatty foods and sauces.
  3. A surge of energy and excellent well-being due to the large intake of proteins into the body. You will always feel full and will not have a feeling of food restriction.

Let's move on to the disadvantages of the "Kremlin" diet

  1. In order to maintain the results of the diet and not to return the lost weight again, you need to stick to the proposed diet for a long time. When the diet is over, you should very smoothly and gradually return the products you ate before the diet.
  2. If you are going to eat flour or any cereals - this is not your diet. Such products are prohibited, even, oddly enough, potatoes are prohibited.
  3. The main part of the products, which make up the main part of the diet, is very expensive. Not everyone can afford to eat expertly cooked meat regularly.
  4. You should eat a lot of fiber, which is found in green vegetables, and not everyone likes green vegetables.

Vegetables: spinach, cabbage, dill, celery, lettuce, zucchini, cilantro, parsley.

Pros and cons of the "Japanese" diet

The Japanese diet is considered very fashionable these days. It is quite short. The Japanese diet lasts exactly 13 days, and the menu of such a diet is well-marked, and everything must be consumed at a strictly designated time.

The basic principles are the same as the "Kremlin" diet, but the pros and cons of such diets are different. You can eat many products and combine them with each other: meat, cheese, fish and eggs are allowed to be seasoned with salad side dishes that contain vegetable oil.

The taboo is imposed on flour, sweets, alcohol and cereals. Fruits can be eaten only excluding bananas and grapes. A very well thought out diet.

There are also several points that can be noted as disadvantages of the Japanese diet. Breakfast will be too poor. For breakfast you will have to eat a cup of coffee, and occasionally - with a rye crouton. Also, the food that can be eaten must be consumed in very small quantities.

If you don’t follow these “little things” of the diet, you won’t be able to lose weight, much less experience all the pros and cons of diets, which is very important.
