The pineapple diet is a thinning method that, being very low in calories, allows you to lose weight quickly. However, it must be taken into account that this diet is often misused. This is so because various diet plans propose to consume only pineapple for 3 days which does indeed help to lose weight quickly, but this does not mean that effectively.
If we consume only pineapple for three days, we will only recover the weight immediately after finishing the diet. The reason for this is that the pineapple, being a natural diuretic, causes us to get deflated, so that weight loss is not real. In addition, the drastic reduction of calories leads directly to the rebound effect that makes us recover the lost pounds.
Pineapple diet: correct way to use it
There is a correct way to use the pineapple diet to lose pounds effectively: doing it for 5 days and incorporating other foods. Because it is a low calorie diet it is very important that you do not do it for more than 5 days, do not perform strong physical activity and take at least 2 liters of water a day to keep you hydrated.
The pineapple diet consists of doing the five meals daily but following this plan:
Breakfast : 2 slices of pineapple, a glass of low fat yogurt and half a toast of whole wheat bread.
Morning collation : 1 glass of pineapple juice.
Lunch : vegetable broth, 200 grams of chicken and 2 slices of pineapple.
Snack : 1 glass of pineapple juice, half brown bread toast and 1 egg.
Dinner : Chicken, lettuce and pineapple salad. 2 slices of pineapple as a dessert.
Follow this plan consuming the same thing for 5 days and you will notice real changes. Make sure that the pineapple is natural and not canned so that its nutrients are in full quality.
