How to lose weight

The fiber-diet, originating in the United States, was presented like “revolutionist”, and particularly serious, since based on the work undertaken by high level scientists. Interest of this diet: it makes it possible to profit, in premium, of the advantages for the health of a sufficient food fiber contribution. But it can involve intestinal problems.

Principle: The fiber-diet is designed to bring each day between 35 and 50 G of fibers, that is to say more than the quantity recommended by the nutritionnists (30 to 35 G per day), and much more than what we eat each day (in general, 15 to 20 G). One strongly increases the consumption of rich foods in fibers: vegetables, fruits, complete cereals, complete bread, dry vegetables. The remainder of the food must represent a weak contribution in calories (reduction of sugars and greases). One takes in more one complement called “Fibers +”, rich in fibers, which one makes oneself starting from his cereals, cereals enriched in dry fruits.

This diet makes it possible to lose more quickly, insofar as a certain proportion of the calories of each meal is not assimilated. In addition, thanks to the satisfying effect of fibres, it would be easier to follow.

Critical: Presented like completely different from all the other “diets”, this fibre-diet such as it is proposed remains despite all a hypocaloric diet, with all the restrictions that implies (in particular concerning rich foods in greases and simple sugars). It imposes the consumption of the Fibers complement +, that some can not appreciate.

The increase in fibers is not always well tolerated on the digestive level. It is essential to proceed in a progressive way (although it is not the traditional step in a slimming diet), if one wants to avoid intestinal disturbances: distensions, gas, pains.

This diet should never be followed by people having intestinal diverticula or problems.
