Egg diet
The egg diet is considered one of the fastest-acting diets. You can find many positive reviews about the egg diet of women who, after a week of such a diet, were able to get rid of five to seven kilograms of excess weight.
The principle of the egg diet for weight loss
Egg yolk biotin is a major catalyst in the egg diet. Biotin (vitamin H) controls the metabolism of fats and carbohydrates, and also participates in the direct process of burning them. When this substance is contained in the body in high concentrations, the process of decomposition of fatty acids starts. Vitamin H also interacts with proteins. It provides 100% assimilation of proteins of any origin, which makes the process of losing weight even more successful and effective. Nutritionists in reviews of the egg diet say that it belongs to low-carb protein diets.
When an egg enters the stomach, a feeling of persistent and long-term satiety arises almost immediately. The egg is digested in the stomach for a very long time (about three to four hours), as a result of which the human body spends a large amount of energy on the very process of digesting the product.
The feeling of satiety with an egg diet is prolonged by about one and a half times if citrus fruits (grapefruits, lemons, oranges) are consumed with the egg. Many reviews of the egg diet say that the combination of egg and grapefruit carotene is quite effective in reducing weight. It is believed that with at least one orange in the egg diet every day, you can lose another 0.5 kg of excess weight on top of the main result.

There is no dinner on the sixth and seventh days of the diet. If you follow this rule, the result will be impressive. But if you get an unpleasant feeling of hunger, you can eat one or two raw eggs. If desired, one chicken egg can be replaced with two quail eggs. If the regime of the egg diet was seriously violated, then it should not be continued, but it is better to start from the first day. Otherwise, the effect of the diet will not be as significant.
With an egg diet, sports activities (swimming, morning exercises, twisting a hoop) will be useful. With this diet, the intake of vitamin and mineral complexes is not prohibited.
You must leave the diet very gradually. For the prevention of repeated weight return, it is useful to partially use the products included in the diet menu (eggs, cottage cheese, oranges). During the next week after the end of the diet, you should try to include these foods in the diet.
