Watermelon diet - a way to lose weight for bacon

Favorite many watermelons can rightly be called a dietary product: 100 grams of it contains only 38 calories. It is useful in hypertension, obesity, cystitis. Contained in the pulp of watermelon, dietary fiber effectively cleanses the intestines, and watermelon juice helps to remove sand and small stones from the kidneys. Watermelon, a diet on which is extremely pleasant, perfectly copes with extra pounds and can be recommended for those who struggle with excess weight.

First of all, you must carefully choose a watermelon. To avoid trouble, plan a cycle of cleaning should be in late summer - early autumn: during this period the watermelon diet does not pose any danger. Watermelons by this time are already ripening in a natural way, and the chance to run into a nitrate-packed fruit is much less. Early watermelons, bought in the market in early July, are unlikely to help you improve your health - their maturation has clearly been speeded up artificially.

When choosing a watermelon, pay attention to its tail: for ripe it should be dry. Determine its maturity can also be knocked on the crust: as experts say, the sound of a ripe watermelon - deaf. In addition, about his maturity speaks a slight crackle when squeezing. To determine that watermelon is stuffed with nitrates, unfortunately, it is possible only after its purchase. Carefully consider the cut: in watermelon, ripened naturally, it is granular, and with the help of nitrates - smooth. Should be alert and dark red, with a purple hue of the color of the pulp. The excess of nitrates in a watermelon is indicated by the yellow or red color of its fibers - normally they are white. If you have even the slightest suspicion that the watermelon is "overfed" with nitrates, it is better not to use it: the watermelon diet in this case not only does not help to improve, but it will also harm your body.

There are several variations of the diet on watermelons. The most simple and sparing - to replace them with one of the meals (better evening). A light watermelon diet can look like this: you eat as usual, but before each meal (about half an hour) you eat 300-500 grams of watermelon flesh. This should be done within 7 days. This method is also recommended as a preparation for the basic diet on watermelons, more stringent.

The main watermelon diet implies a complete refusal of food and replacing it with watermelon flesh. It is by far not everyone's power, so you should soberly assess their strength and understand if you can withstand such restrictions. If you have high or low blood pressure, kidney problems or there are any diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, you should first consult with your doctor. With obesity caused by diabetes of any type, the watermelon diet is also contraindicated. If you follow it, you may lose weight, but you can seriously harm your body.

As for the daily norm of products for this diet, the exact calculation is necessary: ideally, the weight of a watermelon pulp, consumed daily, should equal your weight divided by ten (for example, with a weight of 70 kg - 7 kg). This amount should be distributed 5-6 times. If you find it hard to eat so much, eat as much as you can.

Main watermelon diet can be maintained for 3-5 days. A more acceptable option is a diet on watermelons and black bread: each meal is added to 1-2 of its piece (up to 200 grams). In particular, such a variant of kidney cleansing is offered by the famous folk healer Nadezhda Semenova. The duration of such a diet should be at least 7 days. Those who adhere to this version of her, Semenova also recommends a watermelon in a warm bath at about three in the morning (the time when the kidneys work most actively), thus relaxing the urinary system and removing sand from it. However, without the advice of a doctor, this method is best not to use, especially for those diagnosed with urolithiasis.
