Get rid of 2-3 kg in just a few days will help the diet on the lunar calendar. No mystery, this power system has a purely scientific basis.
For centuries, the moon has been associated with magic and romance, until it was discovered that under its influence are not only poets and lovers, but also the geomagnetic field of the Earth. The moon controls the growth of plants, the reproduction of animals, affects the psycho-emotional background and the physical condition of people. As you know, all the water sources of the planet are subject to its force of gravity. But after all, our body is 90% water, so that it can fully feel the influence of lunar tides. This is the basis of the diet: by adjusting the diet in certain phases of the night luminary, you can affect the amount of fluid in the body in order to more effectively reduce weight.
New moon
The young moon has the strongest influence. At this time, according to supporters of the theory, detoxification is most intense. Therefore, it makes sense to drink more water in order to wash out all the excess, including toxins that are formed due to stress, unhealthy nutrition, poor digestion, and ecology. Weight loss during this period for the most successful can reach up to 3 kg (!) Per day.
NUTRITION TIPS
Give preference to liquid foods: vegetable puree soups, water, juices, green and herbal tea from sage, dandelion without sugar (you can with ½ teaspoon of honey).
Waxing Crescent
Along with the visible part of the moon, appetite is growing. We must try to eat less than we used to, and not succumb to the craving for sweets. This is a guarantee that the kilograms dropped due to the "ebb" of the new moon will not return.
NUTRITION TIPS
Refuse heavy foods (fatty, sweet, spicy) and late feasts. The best solution is an early dinner (before 6 p.m.). More fluid between 15 and 17 hours to avoid attacks of hunger.
Full moon
The turning point of the lunar diet and the most critical period: internal processes, both physical and mental, are unstable. It is very useful at this time to arrange a fasting day to boost metabolism and thereby enhance the effect of weight loss.
NUTRITION TIPS
Again, preference should be given to liquid foods: liquid cereals, jelly, fruit drinks, light vegetable soups, juicy fruits, herbal teas.
Waning moon
This phase is favorable for starting any diet. Together with the Moon, appetite and craving for sweets decrease. Kilograms melt almost by themselves, and the chances that the result will be stable are growing. It is only necessary to maintain a certain level of fluid: 8 glasses of water per day is the norm.
NUTRITION TIPS
Bet on a low-carb menu: less bread, more vegetables and fish.
