Fundamentals of the banana diet.
Hitoshi Watanabe argues that if breakfast eat only fresh bananas with a glass of drinking water at room temperature, it will lead to weight loss, no matter what to eat the rest of the day.
One reason for the effectiveness of the banana diet that bananas improve appetite and increase metabolism. Another reason is that these fruits contain resistant starch - a type of fiber that cause a feeling of satiety and inhibit the absorption of some carbohydrates. Room temperature water, said Hitoshi Watanabe, improves digestion and reduces hunger. It is necessary to have dinner before 8 pm and avoid dessert after dinner. If you feel that you are very hungry, you are allowed to eat for lunch a piece of fruit. Every day you must go to bed before midnight. The meaning of this advice is that through research proved the link between sleep loss and obesity.
Dieters should eat according to Japanese cuisine. Not allowed dairy products and alcohol. Furthermore, only a drink that can be consumed - potable water at room temperature.
Daily meal plan:
Breakfast should consist of one or more of bananas (as many as required by the body for its saturation) and one cup of water.
For lunch permitted eat any food from Japanese cuisine to your taste.
During lunch, if there is hunger, allowed small sweet snacks.
At dinner, as well as for dinner - meals of your choice, with no dessert until 8 pm.
About the exercise of strict regulations do not.
