What is the essence of the Protasov diet?

You eat raw vegetables, wash them down with fermented milk products (ryazhenka, sour cream, kefir, zakvaska), eat cottage cheese and cheese, while enjoying yourself and losing weight. No sweets. Let's say more: the Protasov diet has a clear goal of weaning a person off sweets and doing it for a long time.

The result of the Protasov diet

In addition to losing up to 10 kg of live weight, the Protasov diet helps a person to normalize metabolism, improve the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract and the intestinal microflora as a whole due to the participation of lactic acid bacteria.

The Protasov diet can also help those who need it (and almost everyone does) to cleanse the body of toxins.

Duration of the Protasov diet

5 weeks of the diet itself and 5 weeks after the diet - a steady return to the previous diet

Allowed products during the Protasov diet

Cheeses and curds, as well as other fermented milk products without sugar and starch in the composition.

Do not eat cheeses and curds, as well as fermented baked milk, which contain these harmful substances, says Protasov. This will only harm your body. Be sure to check the composition of the product indicated on the label before buying it.

The same applies to yogurts, which are very rarely sold without additives, substitutes and sweeteners.

Allowed vegetables during the Protasov diet

  • Cabbage of all kinds
  • Tomatoes of all kinds
  • Bell peppers of all colors
  • Cucumbers
  • Green zucchini
  • Pumpkin of all kinds, raw
  • Radish
  • Carrot
  • Turnip
  • Horseradish
  • Greens (including lettuce leaves)
  • Rhubarb
  • Garlic
  • Celery
  • Horseradish
  • Asparagus

Lose weight easily and deliciously with the Protasov diet.
