The Maggi diet refers to the protein diet, the essence of which is that it saturates the body with protein and limits the intake of fats and carbohydrates. Not receiving sources of energy from outside, their own fat deposits are used. According to the testimonies of those who have tried this diet, for a week to lose up to 5 kg of weight, it is carried quite comfortably, does not cause a sense of hunger, the results are maintained for a long time.

The type of diet known as Maggi diet, helps to reduce weight and volume, as they write, without much effort. Although living for a month on a strict regime and schedule, eating only what is indicated in the list, with a great stretch can be called an easy way to lose weight. The menu for 4 weeks is scheduled by day, deviation from it means a breakdown and abandonment of the idea or a new start from scratch.

For four weeks in the body should normalize metabolism and lose excess weight. The diet is protein, but balanced, so it is considered not dangerous for a healthy person. If competently come out of the diet, the result holds for a long time, and then the method can be applied again.

The menu consists of foods that stimulate chemical reactions to recycle fatty tissues. The basis of the diet is eggs combined with citrus fruits. Eggs have a lot of protein and minerals, citrus fruits saturate with vitamin components. Features of the menu:

For convenience, the menu for the entire period is printed on paper and attached in the kitchen, in a prominent place to clearly follow all the rules.

The cottage cheese version

The uniqueness of the Maggi diet is that it is able to please all gourmets: not only is it designed for different periods, but for each period it offers both egg and cottage cheese variants. They are equivalent, the only difference is that instead of the classic eggs, low-fat cottage cheese is used. Why so? Obviously, both products are rich in proteins of animal origin, which are quickly digested by the human body.

The foods included in the diet provide the body with proteins and other nutrients, as well as minerals and vitamins. Potatoes, animal fats, broths, sweet fruits, sugary foods and drinks, alcohol, sauces like mayonnaise, which contain useless or harmful components, too many calories and fats, are prohibited.

From the above, it is clear that cottage cheese does not mean that thinners are supposed only cottage cheese. In fact, the diet is varied and balanced, but has its own subtleties. Features of the diet:

• variety of food;
• a meatless breakfast;
• prohibition on product substitution;
• avoiding fried foods;
• useful cooking techniques;
• Tea and coffee - no restrictions, outside of meals;
• The morning of all days except week 3 starts with 150g of cheese and a citrus or a fruit juice;
• the second and fourth weeks are almost identical.

The cottage cheese method promises weight loss of at least 10kg in a month. In addition, the body is cleansed of toxins and enriched with calcium, the main building material.

Egg version

The classic Maggi diet is based on chicken eggs as a source of protein needed to trigger the chemical processes of weight loss. That is, reducing the amount of fat that tends to be stored in reserve. About the egg version is said because in the process of improvement there were versions for those who do not eat eggs. It turned out that they can be replaced by homemade cottage cheese, containing no less diverse proteins.

• But let's go back to the classics, that is, eggs, which are in the dietary diet more than other foods.

There is nothing to say about the fact that it is a unique treasure trove of vital components. They contain a huge stock of useful substances - building materials and food for embryos. And it is no coincidence, because it is from the egg that a variety of animals of the reptile and bird classes are born.

• Chicken eggs are part of the set of everyday food products, they are used in many culinary and pastry recipes, easily digested and assimilated by the body.

Why they have become the main ingredient of the diet system for weight loss, nutritionists explain that proteins catalyze the chemical processes of fat breakdown in the body, as a result of which their accumulations "melt".

• It has been studied that the digestion of the product depends on the duration of cooking. A hard-boiled egg takes longer to digest than a soft-boiled egg.

The method is also attractive because it is not too monotonous. The diet includes all natural products that we use in our daily menu. Each of the 4 weeks is a kind of bar in the overall weight loss plan, with recommended foods and dishes included in special tables.

Maggi diet recipes for 4 weeks

The advantage of the Maggi diet is that there is no need to count calories, measure portions, limit yourself in spices, and the recipes for each day are simple and uncomplicated. The diet does not burden the complexity of preparations, but requires scrupulous adherence to the diet, the consumption of food at the same time. You can not change the food intended for a particular week and day for another.

An obligatory condition is abundant drinking (at least 2 liters per day), exclusion from the list of products of fruits: bananas, grapes, figs, dates; meat: pork and mutton. Methods of cooking should be dietary - boiling, baking, stewing.

• Week 1: the menu includes boiled eggs (the recipe for their preparation is known to everyone), meat, chicken, fish, fruits and vegetables. Dinner on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday consists of boiled lean meat. To prepare it, you need to use beef or veal. After rinsing the flesh in water, put it in water, add salt, bay leaf, raw onion, other spices to taste and boil until ready.

Tuesday and Sunday lunch consists of boiled chicken: it is prepared similarly to the previous recipe, but the skin must be removed beforehand, because it contains fats. Cold chicken meat is very tasty, so after cooling it is good to put it in the refrigerator.

Friday dinner consists of fish - the simplest recipe is to boil it. You can buy fillets or whole carcasses of lean varieties: hake, pollock, putasu, saida, clean and boil in water until ready, adding various seasonings.

• Week 2: Lunches 6 days and Sunday dinner consist of boiled and baked meat dishes. To bake meat you will need an oven. Seasoned with seasonings, it is wrapped in foil, laid out on a tray and baked at a temperature of^1800C. Readiness can be checked by piercing it with a knife, the release of juice with blood indicates insufficient readiness.

On Friday, fish is eaten for lunch. It can also be baked: put it on foil, sprinkle it with salt, cumin, cut onion rings, and depending on the season, put tomato circles or lemon slices on top. The dish is juicy and tasty.

• Week 3: fruits, raw and cooked vegetables prevail, only on Thursday fish and on Friday meat. The advantage of this diet is the unlimited consumption of vegetable food for its entire period. In order not to get bored with the same vegetables, they can be combined as part of different salads:
  • finely chop cabbage, apple, grate carrots, squeeze lemon juice, lightly splash with vegetable oil;
  • chop cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, sweet peppers, sprinkle with sesame seeds, dress with oil;
  • bake eggplants, after cooling, remove skin, cut into cubes, combine with scalded onions, raw tomatoes, garlic squeezed through a squeezer, add a little sunflower oil.
• Week 4: tuna appears on the menu on Monday and Friday. You can use canned, having previously taken out the fish pieces and let the oil drain on a paper towel. But if it is possible to buy raw steaks, those cooked in a multicooker are much tastier and healthier.

The bottom is lined with halved cherry tomatoes, on them put the steak salted with various seasonings, splashed with balsamic vinegar. After 10 minutes it is turned to the other side, after the same amount of time it is ready.
