Mono-diets like buckwheat, oatmeal, apple, watermelon and the like are very helpful when you need to lose a few pounds in a short time. The problem with most of these weight loss methods is the presence of a large number of contraindications, usually associated with diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and a short result. One has only to return to the usual diet, kilograms immediately fly at full speed back. In addition, after a week spent on one product, a persistent aversion to it is formed. Of all the variety of this kind of weight loss systems, the kefir diet for a week, according to reviews, is the most sparing, especially since it has many different variations. In addition to the use of kefir alone, there is also a kefir-buckwheat, kefir-fruit, kefir-apple, kefir-banana and even kefir-cucumber diet. The latter seems to work by immediate bowel movement. The terms of these techniques are able to swim within the boundaries of three days to three weeks. But in the latter case, people definitely do not eat kefir alone. For mono-diets, the maximum duration should be no more than five days. It is quite possible to lose weight by 10 kg on a kefir diet for a week if the initial weight was overweight, and all conditions were met, including the correct exit. In addition to the fact that, as the name implies, for a certain time it is necessary to make kefir the core of your menu, you need to drink it not anyhow. During the day, it takes up to one and a half liters, while one more low-calorie product is added to it. One or two of the seven days should be “empty”, when nothing is consumed except for kefir and non-carbonated mineral water. Those who do not suffer from obesity, but just want to adjust their figure, can lose 5-7 kg in seven days. In parallel, kefir will have a beneficial effect on the nervous system and cardiac activity, normalize the condition of the skin, gums and teeth, and prevent hair loss. But the most important effect is, of course, on the gastrointestinal tract. Due to the high content of beneficial bacteria, kefir fights putrefactive processes inside, removes toxins and toxins, and restores the intestinal microflora. This fermented milk product is especially recommended for dysbacteriosis, indigestion, liver and gallbladder problems. And what is important for those who are constantly on diets: kefir is recommended to be consumed after leaving them in order to calm the stressed body and remove decay products.

The basic principles of the kefir diet for a week The first and most important thing is that the main ingredient of the kefir diet for a week and 2 weeks should have a minimum percentage of fat – 1%. The effect on the body does not depend on this indicator, but the calorie content of such a drink will be much lower, which plays into the hands. After all, this method of losing weight, like most of its kind, belongs to the category of low-calorie. The second component of the kefir diet for a week is a low-fat protein or carbohydrate product: white meat, vegetables, fruits. And eating should be carried out clearly by the hour, with the same interval between them, and before going to bed, you can’t eat at least two hours in advance. So, judging by the reviews of the kefir diet for a week, it takes 5-7 kg over this period. Such figures refer to the classic version and to those people whose weight is already close to normal. It differs from the more rigid varieties in the presence of one, and not two unloading days, and a reduced dose of kefir per day. The menu for such a system is as follows: The first day. 500 ml of kefir, 4 large potatoes bake or boil. Salt and pepper is prohibited. Second day. 500 ml of kefir, any boiled or steamed lean meat up to 500 g. Third day. 500 ml of kefir, 300-400 g of any fruit. Only bananas and grapes are excluded. Day four. 500 ml of kefir, 400 g of fat-free cottage cheese or the same amount of low-fat steamed fish. Fifth day. Repeat the third day with fruit. Day six. Hungry. Only kefir up to 1.5 liters is allowed. Seventh day. Again, the repetition of the third fruit day. The toughened version means that on the final day, not one more day on fruits with kefir, but the second unloading, but already on the water. The volume is the same – 1.5 liters. Water must be non-carbonated. Any seasonings for taste in products, including salt and sugar, are prohibited. It is allowed to drink herbal tea without any additives. The complexity of such a kefir diet for a week also lies in limiting the drinking regime, since nothing is allowed in it except for the notorious half-liter of fermented milk product. This item makes treat it with caution, as it is fraught with a violation of the water balance in the body

In order to lose weight by 10 kg on a kefir diet for a week, its most difficult option is chosen. The menu is practically the same as the one above, but the daily intake of kefir is tripled, and the amount of additional food is reduced to 100 g for the whole day. Such a framework gave this technique the name “hungry”, since the energy value of the daily diet is barely enough to maintain normal performance. Of course, we are not talking about any physical activity here. “Pure” kefir diets for a week and 2 weeks do not differ in terms of diet, but it is undesirable to sit on them for more than seven days. Firstly, the deprivation of the body of important trace elements is too great, since the carbohydrate-protein balance is quite low, especially for the “hungry” diet. Secondly, there is a moment of getting used to, as a result of which the second seven-day period is no longer so effective. If you want to extend the process of weight loss on kefir, it is better to change the diet after the first week, or initially go on a kefir-rice or kefir-buckwheat diet, which lasts just up to fourteen days. Exit from the kefir diet After the hated kilograms have left the body, the waist has been outlined in the mirror, and the legs have ceased to look like jelly, it is important to “get off” the diet correctly, and not go all out, rejoicing at the end of the kefir torture. Ideally, you will have to live another week without bakery products (grain bread is allowed), fried, fatty foods, and also without pastries and cakes. Chocolate, if you really want it, you should buy bitter. Of course, it is best to go on a proper diet and stick to it for the rest of your life, but if you don’t have enough willpower for such “feats”, it will be enough just to endure another seven days until the gastrointestinal tract gets used to its usual products. In the case of instant absorption of fried potatoes with lard after the completion of the seventh day of the kefir diet, there is a risk of negative consequences for digestion. And do not forget that the kefir diet is contraindicated for people with gastritis with high acidity, frequent intestinal disorders and individual intolerance to dairy and sour-milk products.
