Protasov's Diet: Why the Deviations Are Dangerous
Protasov's Diet: Useful information


How to leave from the Protasov's diet?
It is necessary to introduce te changes not all at once, but gradually. Do not add the entire culinary book, but replace something to something for expanding of assortment, satisfaction of taste, addition of vitamins, minerals, microelements. And all this - with the small, if not zero, increase in the caloricity. This is a basis of the exit from Protasov's diet.


Thus EXIT must be slow, uniform, gradual.

step 1. part of the dairy products (not all!) we take entirely fatless (0,5-1%), and for the compensation we add vegetable oil into the lettuces. On the day - not more than 15 g of vegetable oil (this 3 tea spoons).
I.e., the part of the animal fats we replace with an equivalent quantity of vegetable oils. For information: three olives have 1.5 gram of a good fat, in three large almonds is also 1.5. Accordingly, if you ate olives or nuts, then you have to decreased a quantity of other oil. Always we count the fats! Not more than 30-35 g per the day for everything, including fats in the dairy, meat, fish, in the lettuce, and in the eggs (there are 4-6 g of fat in the yolk);

step 2. two apples of three we substitute by some other fruits (but not very
sweet and, of course, not bananas, not mango and not dry dates);

step 3. Now In the morning we eat cereals instead of the vegetables from
the calculation
1-2 table of the spoon of dry cereal to the appropriate volume of water.

step 4. We substitute the part of the dairy products whit the lean meat, chicken and other sources of the protein.

Exemplary menu after the diet:
It is just the suggestion. Is is necessary to slowly introduce carbohydrates and to count fats.

- 6 weeks as 5, but on the less fat from dairy products + of 2-3 spoons of cereals on the water.
- 7 weeks as 6 and we substitute apples by other non-sweet fruits.
- 8 as 7 we add a little of the dried fruit
- 9 as 8 we add the boiled vegetables + we substitute the part of dairy food with the meat
- Week 10 we begin to introduce common products of our life into the ration.

Reducing gradually a quantity of dietary products.

Do not eat at least 1-2 months rice, pasta, bread.

In the period of diet itself so after it the discharge of weight occurs depending on the specific features of each organism.

About the "vegetable aerocolia"

If to the moment of passage to Protasov's diet you fed "as all people" - with a small quantity of fresh vegetables and fruits and a large quantity of "poor" carbohydrates and products of industrial production in the ration - that in the first 2 weeks of correct nourishment the unpleasant side effect is possible: the abdominal distension. Do not hurry to follow the majority of doctors and to blame fresh vegetables and fruits in this phenomenon. They are not guilty, but that "rubbish", which remained in the bowels after many years of incorrect nourishment. In combination with fruit and vegetable cellulose it gives "explosive" effect. There is the only one medicine: continue to eat fresh vegetables and fruits in the sufficiently large quantity (portion not less than 200-250 g) to the hungry stomach and to collect the patience.

Vegetable cellulose will clean from the bowels a basic quantity of "rubbish" and unpleasant phenomena will cease during 2 weeks. In this case it is necessary to drink not less than 1,5 l of pure water during the day, since cellulose is derived well from the bowels, only with a water.
To probably superfluously recall that salt and large quantity of servicing in the lettuce will lower "clearning" vegetable effect almost to zero.

And of course the described "therapy" is not applied to the people with the serious chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal tract.

Protasov's Diet: Why the Deviations Are Dangerous

Useful information:

Basic metabolism

Basic metabolism is the quantity of calories necessary for organism for the right metabolic process in the state of the rest. When organism obtains the necessary quantity (but not more) of the calories it begins to expend on the physical exercises the existing fatty reserves. With an increase in the muscle loading and the retention of the quantity of the obtained calories of the food the organism respectively more intensively expends fatty reserves.

What occurs when we don't give enough calories to the organism? It begins to slow down "eating" of adipose tissue (which is its energy reserve) and begins to eat the muscular tissue (which is not the reserve, but it is material for the construction).
So, the loading in organism remained, but we do not give to it the necessary food. As a result it, organism begins to make reserves from any quantity and qualities of food, i.e., to put aside new fat.

Figuratively speaking you begin to add weight from carrots... That is why the hungry diets ant the fasting days are so dangerous...

The shortage of 400-500 kcal leads to sharp worsening in well-being (organism cannot normally function), they slow down all processes passing in the organism. Hence weakness, headaches, indisposition and so forth and the like.

The losing weight and malnutrition are NOT the SAME!!!!

The weight losing is the organization of the healthy nourishment after our usual food madness! This is bringing organism into the standard (from a biological point of view) and, consequently, also with the aesthetical!
Therefore EAT!!!!

With metabolism equal to 1200 kcal it is necessary during the day to eat (1-2 weeks):

1000 ml/g of sour-milk products by fattiness 4-5%
+ 1200 g of the fresh vegetables (it is very desirable so that 1/3 constituting there would be the green head cabbage!)
+ 1 boiled egg
+ 3 green apples (Granny Smith)
+ 1,5-2 l water
+ the eighth hour of sleep - here is THE FORMULA OF SUCCESS!!!

Formula for calculating the basic exchange of substances:

Basic Metabolism (kcal) = of 9.563 * weight (kg) + 1.850 * height (cm) - 4.676 * age + 655.1

Formula for calculating the index of the Body Mass Index (BMI):

BMI = Weight of body in kg/the square of the height in meters

Doctors consider standard BMI from 18,5 to 24,9.

Important Notes

Why the Deviations from the Protasov's diet eating plan are dangerous?

When we sit on the Protasov's Diet we retrain our organism: instead of "fast" carbohydrates we force it to split "slow" - complex carbohydrates. t is necessary to work for this purpose, for which he is not accustomed. This is the reason "carbohydrates withdrawal symptoms", which lasts for 3 days and and which is necessary for enduring. "Slow" carbohydrates (with low glycemic index GI) normalize process of development and inflow in blood of the insulin responsible for formation of fatty deposits.

Any doze, for example, sweets provokes the massed emission of insulin, that is infringement of the insulin balance, and brings to nothing your works on "education" of an organism.

Do not think, that one candy threatens you with an additional weight in 10 grams: it threatens that in an organism again will begin "insulin violence ", that is relapse of almost cured infringements of the metabolism leading excess weight.

Do you think, that anithing terrible does not happen from a small dose? Alas, it not so: the organism responds adequately to any product in any quantity diverted to the alimentary canal. Why do you not doubt of it, when accept a tiny tablet?

Eat To Lose Weight. Don't Skip Breakfast!

Your diet plan should encourage good eating habits. The problem that most people have with losing weight is they skip meals to lose weight. By skipping breakfast and eating too little in the early part of the day, you set yourself up to over-eat later in the afternoon or evening. You have to eat to lose weight. But the biggest mistake of all is skipping the most important meal of the day... breakfast! It does not mean you should chow down dozens of eggs, pounds of bacon and loaves of bread but eating a sensibe healthy breakfast. When people skip meals, skip breakfast there are several factors that will hinder any weight loss.

First, people who skip breakfast often go full out on lunch. They would consume a large helping of junk food, fast food... basically food that aren't healthy and guaranteed weigth gainers. The second thing that will happen whem you skip breakfast is your metabolism will slow down to a crawl. What occurs is your body's natural self defense when it senses food is scarce is to slow down the metabolism. When that occurs, your body will try to hold the fat as long as it could. So please, if you are serious of trying to lose weight… don't skip breakfast. You can eat about every 2-2 1/2 hours (fitness eating style), for example, lean protein (meat), vegetables, fruit and sometimes healthy soy chips. After dinner, you can have a snack. Make sure it isn't your typical dessert snack like cakes, ice cream, pies or anything sugary. You can have a sugar free pudding, fat-free cottage cheese with a little soy milk sweetened with splenda and flavored with a few drops of sugar free vanilla extract and nutmeg. Protein is a natural appetite suppressant and cottage cheese is high in protein. You will need protein to maintain your lean muscle, without it you will lose valuable lean muscle and when that happens – your metabolism will slow down. If you want to snack grab a hand full of almonds, peanuts, walnuts or cashews. These nuts will bust your appetite. However, don't go overboard on the nuts, afterall nuts have calories and calories still counts. So, if you are serious about losing weight: you have to eat and drink plenty of water.

The type of breakfast you eat depends upon the diet you are pursuing. You might choose a high fiber meal, such as cereal, or a high protein meal, such as scrambled eggs and ham. Your breakfast should contain plenty of vitamins and minerals to help your body remain healthy throughout the day.

Another interesting aspect about breakfast is that it is a proven mood elevator. This is quite important, since it is critical to remain positive when trying to lose weight. Anything that you can do to lift your spirits—provided that it does not cause you to pack on the pounds—should be considered beneficial. Also, breakfast sets the pattern for the day. If you make healthy decisions at breakfast, you’re more likely to make the right decisions regarding the other meals of the day.

One thing you should avoid at breakfast is eating something high in sugar, such as a sugary breakfast cereal. While such a meal can lift your energy level temporarily, after a few hours, your energy level will drop again. While it is always better to eat something than nothing, you should be careful in the food choices you make at breakfast.

Breakfast can enhance the efficiency of the body, making it easier for you to burn fat. This is true for both young and old, so make sure your children eat breakfast as well. A smoothly-running body is a healthy body and one that is more likely to become lean over time.

At first glance, there appears to be no downside to eating breakfast. However, it is important to issue a cautionary note. Some people use breakfast as an opportunity to binge. They figure that they can eat breakfast and then skip the rest of their meals. However, this is not a healthy approach. In order to work effectively, your body needs to eat regular meals. Some diets call for three meals a day; others rely on five or six smaller meals eaten more frequently. In any event, while breakfast may be your most important meal of the day it should not be your only meal of the day.

Eating breakfast is a habit. However, if you haven’t eaten breakfast in a while, it may be a difficult habit to get into. The key to starting a healthy habit is persistence. Try to eat something every morning, even if it’s only a little something. Make sure that you have time to actually sit at the table and eat, rather than trying to eat breakfast on the run. Scheduling time for breakfast means that you have made it a priority in your life. If you follow this formula, you should be in a better position to lose weight over the long term.

Don't Skip Breakfast
