The wine diet is gaining popularity as an effective way to quickly lose weight. Its main advantage is the ability to lose up to 5 kg in 5 days. In this case, about half of the lost weight is excess fluid removed from the body.
Another advantage of the wine diet is the ability to adhere to its regime even during holidays and feasts, when people usually gain excess weight. The diet prohibits the consumption of salt, which normalizes metabolism and cleanses the body of waste and toxins.
It has been proven that moderate consumption of red wine has a positive effect on the functioning of the heart and vascular system.
Principles of the wine diet
During the wine diet, carbohydrates (especially sugar) and salt are excluded from the diet. Allowed drinks are wine, water and teas. Mineral water, juices and coffee are prohibited.
During the 5 days of the diet, the menu remains unchanged. Instead of cottage cheese, you can eat low-fat cheeses (200 g), but then the diet will drag on for 2-3 days. The wine should be dry red or rosé.
Wine diet menu
- Breakfast - tomato, 1 boiled egg
- Second breakfast - apple
- Lunch - low-fat cottage cheese (200 g), 1 cucumber
- Dinner (3 hours after lunch) - wine (200 ml)
Wine can be drunk at any time of the day, but it is better for dinner.
Thus, the wine diet is an effective way to quickly lose weight without disturbing your usual diet. The main thing is to observe restrictions on carbohydrates and salt. A glass of wine a day will only enhance the positive effect.
