The diet of the French nutritionist and nutritionist Dr. Pierre Ducan continues to lose popularity. What gains so many supporters?
It is mandatory to take a sufficient amount of water at least 1.5-2 liters per day. It should be drunk constantly. First, in order to be able to remove toxins and waste products from the body, to eliminate conditions of swelling in the body such as swelling of the limbs. Secondly, because of the protein composition of the food that is ingested, to ensure the normal functioning of the kidneys and urinary system.
First stage
Protein hit. Depending on how many days you need to be on a "pure" protein diet, you eat foods that contain mostly protein. This means eating during these few days - meat, which contains a minimum amount of fat, ie they should not be more than 10-15%. For example, beef - schnitzel, cutlets; beefsteak, fillet, roast beef (excluding fish, cutlets). Pork, lamb, duck and goose meat are prohibited. Instead, you can freely eat chicken, rabbit, horse. The chicken skin must be removed.

what you can eat at will without any restrictions on the type, fat content and method of preparation is fish. Any fish , river and ocean, white and with darker meat, no matter how greasy, is allowed. It can be grilled, cooked in its own sauce, in foil, smoked, dried - whatever you want and love her! The same goes for all seafood - mussels, shrimps, lobsters, etc.
Consumption of the liver is also recommended, due to the high content of useful vitamins. The liver only disappears if you have high cholesterol and are prone to cardiovascular disease. Veal, beef, and poultry livers are suitable. You can also eat tongue, beef or lamb, and only the top of the beef.
