Kefir is a dietary food product. Here he has no equal competitors. Our ancestors were well aware of the healing properties of kefir, and today, despite the wide range of fermented milk products, it remains the leader in this segment. The secret of its success is simple: a huge number of useful properties, availability and efficiency. Kefir is the basis of many wellness methods and diets. With its help, you can not only lose weight, but also improve the condition of nails, hair and skin.

 

But, keeping in mind the useful properties of the product, one should not forget that every medal has a reverse side. Here it is important not to overdo it. If a glass of kefir a day is definitely useful for everyone and stimulates the work of the intestines, then in large quantities this product is contraindicated for people with digestive system problems. Therefore, before choosing one of the many kefir diet options, you should consult with a specialist.

Expert opinion

Nataliya Kravtsova, nutritionist: "Probably, there is no woman who has not "sat on kefir" at least once in her life. Whether it's a long-term diet, an express diet or just a relaxing day after the holidays, when it's impossible to look at food anymore. Among the "pluses" of kefir diets: a variety of options (everyone can choose a method taking into account the characteristics of the body); health effect (with excess weight, waste products are removed from the body); availability (saving time and money).

But kefir also has its disadvantages. Since I am against mono-diet in principle, I would not recommend kefir mono-diet even to the healthiest people. It is important that a person does not forget: even the most useful product does not contain all the trace elements and vitamins necessary for the body. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the diet, taking into account the needs of the body in proteins, vitamins and even fats.

Also, keep in mind that kefir diets are low-calorie, so they are not recommended for those who lead an active lifestyle, do sports or do physical work. If you still decided on a kefir diet, carefully monitor your health, listen to your body. Many begin to complain about problems with the stomach, intestines and liver. Kefir diets are definitely contraindicated for people with peptic ulcers and gastritis. And if these diseases are just developing, the kefir diet can provoke the first attack. Therefore, if you notice any deviations or discomfort, it is better to abandon radical diets and choose something more long-lasting and diverse in terms of product composition.

There are many kefir diets

There are dozens of varieties of kefir diets. Choose the optimal option for your body. There are determined people who drink 1.5-2 liters each. kefir for weeks. Such extremes can harm the body. Perhaps your sacrifices will be rewarded - the kilograms will go away. But, as a rule, for a while. According to statistics, only 3% who lost weight in such a strict way manage to keep the achieved result for a long time. Consider the psychological aspect as well: suffering on one kefir for a couple of weeks, many people begin to hate the product. And this is another extreme. After all, this leader among fermented milk products is really very useful and tasty. But in everything a measure is necessary. Take into account this set of factors and choose a diet that is diverse in terms of product composition. The result will please, and negative consequences will be avoided.

 

Do not "go" on a diet spontaneously: prepare your body. For a week, reduce the amount of food, and replace dinner with a glass of kefir. Also ensure a gentle regime of the body "at the exit" from the diet. Otherwise, you run a double risk: the kilograms can quickly return, and the body can fail, unable to cope with unexpected loads.

Weekly kefir diet

 

The ration of the proposed diet is quite diverse. And, nevertheless, it is from the category of hard diets, so it is recommended to repeat it once every 2-3 months. Be careful: the use of salt and sugar is strictly prohibited. The number of kilograms lost varies. But on average about 5 kg.

It is recommended to drink a glass of kefir daily every 3-4 hours. It is allowed to change kefir, but it is better to choose low-fat 1%, 2.5%. The choice can be as follows: low-fat 1%, then fruit, in the evening bifidokefir to maintain the microflora of the stomach and intestines in a normal state. The volume of kefir should not exceed 1.5 liters. You can drink water between meals and kefir. Choose mineral, spring or purified bottled. You should give up tea and coffee for this week.
