Kremlin diet menu for the first week. Sample menu for every day. Liver pate

The question of how to look slim has worried women at all times. It is not for nothing that the female sex today knows more about diets than any nutritionist. It is for this reason that diets are so popular today. Some time ago, people had no idea about all the food abundance that is available to us today. It is for this reason that there were no questions about limiting oneself in food. Moreover, a couple of centuries ago it was fashionable to be full, as this testified to the level of human prosperity. And while most of the country's inhabitants could not afford sumptuous meals, wealthy citizens ate everything that was on their table.

Today, almost anyone can afford to go to the store and buy exactly what he wants. We are by no means limited in our choice. However, being full is not fashionable today. Moreover, fat people are considered people who are not able to control themselves and their desires. And against the backdrop of a general passion for a healthy lifestyle, they do not look very good. Everyone has long known what terrible consequences are fraught with excess weight. In addition to visible manifestations such as shortness of breath, constant fatigue, difficulty walking, such people are often exposed to diseases of the internal organs.

Yes, undoubtedly, a certain percentage of fat should be in the body of each person, but this does not mean that fat is good for us. Its content should not be large. Otherwise, problems with the cardiovascular system, kidneys, stomach, skin and hair begin. All this suggests that if you are already overweight, or you have finally decided to take care of yourself and your health, you should not put it off until later, because then it may be too late. And for starters, you need to regulate your diet.

Among all the variety of diets, it is difficult to choose one that would be approved by doctors. However, just such a diet is the Kremlin.


Leading Russian cardiac surgeon, director of the A. N. Bakulev National Center for Cardiovascular Surgery Leo Antonovich Bokeria.

By following the Kremlin diet, you can lose 5-6 kg in 8 days, and in just a month and a half you can lose as much as 8-15 kg.

So, the more excess weight you have, the more intensively it goes away. As you can see, this diet did not count on some unrealistic result, as a result of which you will become slim, like an aspen. However, this diet is a proven, approved by doctors. And this means that in the end you will be able to lose kilograms that will not come back to you in the near future.

Naturally, it is also necessary to introduce sports into your life, and the reason for this is this. The fact is that with weight loss, the condition of a person’s skin changes. As a result, it may sag a little. If such a scenario is not included in your plans, then in parallel with the diet, you need to start to tone your body so that it is not only slim, but also fit.

A bit from the history of the Kremlin diet

"The Diet of the American Astronauts", which is also known by another pseudonym " Kremlin diet", is surrounded by an aura of unprecedented mystery, and today it has already become very popular among all diet lovers who also want to take care of their health.

The Kremlin diet is called a secret for the simple reason that for quite a long time the main recipe for this very diet was not disclosed to anyone. That is why there were all sorts of rumors among the people about its results, which were considered miraculous.

Initially, this diet was used during the development of the diet of US astronauts - hence the "diet of American astronauts." As for the second name of the diet, which also became known as the "Kremlin diet", this name appeared due to the fact that for a long time top party workers and officials lost weight on this diet. By the way, Yuri Luzhkov, the measure of Moscow, managed to lose weight on this diet. That is why, thanks to the presence of such eloquent examples, the Kremlin diet is unusually popular in Russia today.

The essence of the diet

Kremlin diet works like this:

The intake of carbohydrates is sharply limited in the body due to the fact that the intake of carbohydrates is just the same in the diet. After that, the body begins to spend its internal reserves, which are located in body fat.

This results in weight loss. The more reserves the body has, the faster it consumes them. It is worth considering that during the diet, meat is allowed in large quantities, and at the same time it does not slow down the process of losing weight.

In the first week, up to 20 grams of carbohydrates should be present in the diet, and after that you can increase to 40 grams.

There are exceptions - foodstuffs, which are strictly not recommended. These are products such as potato dishes, flour and sweet products, bread, sugar and rice. The first two weeks are also prohibited from eating foods such as fruits, juices, vegetables. The basic rule to follow, and which is the key to success in losing weight, is not to sweeten anything. By the way, it is allowed to drink tomato juice.

Allowed to eat foods such as fish, cheese, meat, vegetables with a low carbohydrate content, as well as other foods that are low in carbohydrate content. In order to correctly navigate how many carbohydrates are contained in which product, there are Kremlin diet table. Each product has its own value. One point equals 1 gram of carbohydrates.

As for products such as sausages, sausages, sausages, they must be consumed with great care. The fact is that in modern production these products very often do not correspond to the content of meat and meat products declared in them. Increasingly, these products are being replaced by soy products, which is unacceptable during the Kremlin diet. Starch is also very often added. Thus, since these supplements contain a huge amount of carbohydrates, their use should be avoided. Of course, if you really want to benefit from the diet.

Even though the diet does not limit the consumption of foods such as meat and cheese, this does not mean that you can eat kilos of them and still lose weight. To increase the effectiveness of the Kremlin diet, it is necessary not only to count points, but also to adhere to the daily routine and sleep schedule. So, in the event that you do not eat 3-4 hours before bedtime, then the effectiveness of the diet will only increase.

When people go to a nutritionist, they are usually given an approximate diet plan. However, you can manage on your own. The main thing is to follow the principle of diet. In the first two weeks, you need to score 20 points, and then - less than 40 points. Since on this diet you can eat a lot of meat and fish, you need to make sure that they are well absorbed. And for this, they are best consumed with vegetables.

Indications and contraindications

Like any other diet, the Kremlin diet has its indications and contraindications. As we have already found out, indications for the use of the diet is overweight, as well as the diseases caused by it, the spectrum of which is unusually wide. Accordingly, the patient is advised to reduce carbohydrate intake.

As for contraindications, they are chronic diseases of the heart, kidneys and blood vessels. Diet is also contraindicated pregnant women who decided to comply with it without the testimony of a doctor.

Today, every third person has urolithiasis in varying degrees. So, with this disease, the use of fats in the amount prescribed by the Kremlin diet is prohibited. The same applies to the effect of proteins on diseased kidneys.

Therefore, if your health is dear to you (and this diet is designed for a long time), you need to initially undergo an examination, so that later you can go on a diet with a clear conscience. However, in the event that this diet suits you in all respects, you can supplement the reduced amount of protein consumed by replenishing them with vegetables, which are allowed to be consumed according to the Kremlin diet table.

Features of the Kremlin diet

As with any diet, during the Kremlin diet it is necessary to take into account some of its specific features.

Thus, close attention, as mentioned earlier, should be paid to sugar intake. It is especially difficult to limit the use of sugar for those who have a sweet tooth in life. Nutritionists have long called sugar the white death, since its use is not fraught with anything useful for humans. Thus, the Kremlin diet is not compatible with the use of sugar.

If you pay attention to the carbohydrate table, you can see that there is 99 c.u. in sugar. per hundred grams of product. And the daily carbohydrate diet should be no more than 40 USD. Thus, if you consume only 40 grams of sugar, then you will use up your entire daily diet. At the same time, if you eat a whole whole chicken, then this will not harm the diet.

That is why, if you cannot imagine your life without sweets, this diet will be very difficult for you, which means you should look for a more suitable diet. But, if fruits are able to compensate for your consumption of sweets in a small amount, then it is worth a try, as the diet is very effective.

The Kremlin diet also pays special attention to water consumption. Since it is water that maintains the correct water-salt balance, it also reduces the load on the human body. In addition, water removes toxins from the body. At least 1.5-2 liters of water should be consumed daily.

Another feature that often accompanies the Kremlin diet is constipation. This unpleasant phenomenon can be easily negated if bran is used during the diet. Just one tablespoon of bran can return digestion to its normal state.

The main mistakes in following the Kremlin diet

People who are used to eating little and not often make the same mistake during the Kremlin diet. Meanwhile, during this diet, you need to eat fully and in large portions. You need to eat twice a day fully, and you also need to snack twice a day. It is the regular consumption of food that contributes to normal digestion, as well as saturation of the body with energy. In no case should you skip breakfast, otherwise the entire diet regime will be ruined. Since fruits should be excluded from the diet as much as possible, those that you will eat should be rich in fiber.

During the Kremlin diet fats should not be excluded from the diet. For example, if you introduce olive oil into your diet, it will only benefit your weight loss. In the event that you were invited to a restaurant or cafe, you should not give in to the diet. The Kremlin diet is a way of life, not a temporary solution.

By the way, a huge plus of the Kremlin diet is the absence of the need to count calories. The main thing is to create a balanced menu.

Going on a diet, many women begin exhaust oneself with sports, because they believe that the greater the load, the better they will be able to lose weight. However, this does not apply to the Kremlin diet. This diet is not designed for intensive exercise. All you need in order to lose weight is either to exercise in the mode that you supported before, or to introduce small physical exercise. Light exercise can improve metabolism, as well as help to cope with digestive problems. You may not even have to consume bran.

A very important point while maintaining the Kremlin diet is getting out of it. This must be done gradually, because overweight can easily go back. However, many people accept the Kremlin diet as a new way of life because it is easy to get used to it. Due to the balanced diet, as well as the fact that it is long enough, addiction is very easy. Therefore, after the end of the diet, many continue to adhere to it for life. And this is the best solution, because it will help to consolidate the results achieved.

Gradually, your weight will be completely fixed on the desired indicator, and will no longer increase, delighting you with a good figure and excellent health.

Is it possible to lose 30 kilograms of excess fat in just 1 month? On the Kremlin diet, this is real! Find out what you need to eat and drink so that you can buy clothes two sizes smaller in 30 days.

An effective system of protein monoration for weight loss The "Kremlin" diet caused a lot of discussion with its appearance. The source of the idea was the diet of American astronauts, and the author was Robert Atkins. The principle of losing weight is based on reducing the carbohydrates contained in the diet to almost zero. In the daily menu, you need to count not calories, but the amount of carbohydrates. This weight loss system has helped many to lose weight, but not everyone has come up with it. What is the essence of this idea, and for whom can it be effective?

Efficiency

The principle of the Kremlin nutrition system is to exclude carbohydrates from food. A description of its rules and the whole truth about it, we will tell in our review.

Where to start for a person who decides to try to lose weight on the Kremlin? Check out the table that contains the basics of this diet. To determine what you can eat on a no-carb diet, look at the amount of carbs in a meal, and choose the foods that have the least amount of them. The main diet will consist of meat products and meat, fish, cheese. The first 2 weeks the amount of carbohydrates is limited to 20 grams, then they can be gradually increased to 40. The rules prohibit sugar, sweets, bread products. In addition, you can not eat any cereals and potatoes.

The effectiveness of the Kremlin diet for weight loss is about 10 kilograms in 14 days. Of course, it all depends on the state of the body losing weight. Although the calorie content of meals is not limited, you need to eat in moderation, not forgetting about physical activity. Then the result will be the most effective.

Advantages and disadvantages

Many are interested in the question, is the Kremlin diet harmful? Like any food system, it has its pros and cons.

Pros:

  • effective weight loss;
  • skin problems associated with the use of carbohydrates go away;
  • no need to starve, you can eat to your heart's content;
  • varied diet.

Minuses:

  • the presence of contraindications for health reasons;
  • sweet lovers find it difficult to comply with restrictions.

The Kremlin diet can harm only people with the following diseases:

  • chronic kidney disease;
  • diseases of the cardiovascular system;
  • diabetes;
  • gastritis;
  • stomach and duodenal ulcer;
  • bowel problems;
  • pregnancy and breastfeeding.

The consequences of a carbohydrate-free diet for a healthy person are only positive: excess weight is lost, the skin is cleansed, and the level of “bad” cholesterol is reduced. Try to eat protein foods first for a week, then, having achieved a positive result in losing weight and listening to your health, extend the protein menu for another week. So bring up to a month, and you will achieve a positive and sustainable result in weight loss!

Stages

Compliance with the nutrition system according to Dr. Atkins is divided into the following time periods:

  1. Stage 1 of the diet lasts 2 weeks, and the total amount of carbohydrates that can be consumed per day is 20 grams.
  2. The duration of stage 2 depends on the rate of weight loss (usually 4 to 6 weeks). At this stage, you can add 5 grams of carbohydrates per week until you reach 40, and if the weight continues to decrease, then you can move on to the next stage of weight loss.
  3. Stage 3 adds 10 grams per week. The total amount of carbohydrates in food daily should not exceed 60 grams.
  4. Stage 4 is aimed at maintaining the achieved result of weight loss and involves eating regular food while maintaining the restriction of carbohydrate intake.

The first stage of the diet is especially difficult and important. During this period, the body adapts to expend energy received not from food, but from the existing stock of body fat. Observing all the restrictions, in 14 days you can lose up to 10 kg. The menu of the first stage consists of proteins and fats: fish, meat, cheese, eggs. At the first stage on the diet, alcohol, coffee, sugar and sweets, fruits, nuts, and potatoes are excluded from the menu.

Recipes for the first stage should contain a minimum amount of carbohydrates. For example, a meat salad with vegetables contains about 4 grams of them. To prepare it, you need to take the following ingredients:

  • 100 gr. pork;
  • tomato;
  • zucchini;
  • 50 gr. leaf lettuce.

Season the chopped pork with salt and fry in olive oil. Cut tomatoes, zucchini, tear lettuce leaves and mix. Lay cooked meat on top. Drizzle with a mixture of olive oil, black pepper, mustard, broth and balsamic vinegar.

Complete table of content points in products

With the help of a table that shows the amount of carbohydrates in products, a rating is compiled by points, that is, the product is given exactly as many points as there are grams of carbohydrates in it.

When compiling a diet for weight loss, proceed from the number of points contained in each food, in accordance with the points table. It is detailed enough to make a diet for any period.

To understand whether such a diet is right for you, it is advisable to try to stay on it for 10 days. Remember your weight before you start losing weight and weigh yourself after 10 days of carbohydrate-free eating. If you easily endured and the result of losing weight is obvious, continue in the same spirit. When compiling a menu for 10 days, use a table with points and recipes for ready meals.

Start by making your own menu for the week. Choose ingredients with a lower score in the table and cook according to your favorite recipes.

When choosing recipes for meals, exclude dishes from potatoes, all types of cereals and some vegetables that are high in carbohydrates. For example, a recipe for beef with mushrooms includes the following ingredients:

  • beef (200 g);
  • 50 g of fresh oyster mushrooms and 50 g of any canned mushrooms;
  • 100 g of asparagus;
  • beef broth;
  • cream;
  • cognac.

Boil the asparagus in salted water. Mushrooms cut and fry in butter. Lightly fry the beef in butter and remove from the pan. Pour 50 g of broth, cognac, cream into the remaining oil, sprinkle with spices and boil slightly. Serve meat with mushrooms and asparagus with the resulting sauce.

For the preparation of the diet are welcome: all types of meat, fish, poultry and seafood, eggs, cheeses, cucumbers, green salad, tea and, of course, water. When buying sausages in a store, pay attention to their composition. Manufacturers often replace meat with other components, and these may contain carbohydrates.

For a month

A month on protein nutrition includes the menu of the first and second stages. For the introductory two-week period, you are limited to 20 grams of carbs daily. Two second - go to the second period of weight loss, gradually increasing the number of points in food. You can increase it only if there is a decrease in weight. If during the first 2 weeks you allowed yourself errors in nutrition and did not achieve the desired result, then return to the daily limit of the first period.

In accordance with the table of allowed foods, in the second stage you can expand your diet with cream, processed cheese, fruits.

Snacks throughout the month include grilled cheese, a variety of nuts, olives, seeds, and avocados. Eating proteins and fats throughout the month can inevitably lead to constipation, so be sure to include more vegetables in your diet and eat bran.

Our favorite foods and the Kremlin diet

The list of products that can be consumed on the Kremlin diet is quite diverse. Allowed foods are everything low in carbohydrates: fish, meat, poultry, eggs, cheese, some vegetables. But what to do with our favorite products?

For example, it is forbidden to eat desserts, because they contain such an amount of carbohydrates that equals your daily allowance. That is why at the first stage it is strictly forbidden to use them. On the second and third, when you gradually start to increase the number of points consumed per day, you can indulge in a low-carb dessert, such as strawberries in cream.

Take 100 g of washed strawberries and 50 g of cream, a tablespoon of sugar, a little liquor. Mix liquor with sugar and pour over berries. Put in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. This dessert contains 16 points.

Cravings for sweets, especially at first, can be quenched with the help of sweeteners, which are sold in any supermarket. They do not contain sugar, but there is a lot of controversy about their safety. Therefore, it is recommended to use them only at the beginning, as a transition from sugar to its absence.

As for alcohol, it is allowed by the Kremlin food. Dry red and white wine is allowed, which do not contain sugar, as well as strong alcoholic drinks - whiskey, vodka, cognac, gin. Different types beers contain varying amounts of points, but in general beer is not recommended. If you do happen to drink beer, read the label carefully and choose the beer that contains the least carbs. And remember that alcohol stimulates your appetite and can push you to break your limits. That is why alcohol is completely prohibited in the first two weeks of the Kremlin diet.

Cutlets, like any meat, are welcome in the diet. They can be not only meat, but also fish or chicken. However, when choosing a cooking recipe, pay attention that the minced meat does not include bread, rice and vegetables.

Sushi is a very popular dish in our country, and many can no longer imagine their lives without it. However, rice is one of the highest carbohydrate ingredients in sushi. The way out for lovers of Japanese cuisine can be the use of sashimi, miso soup or other dishes without rice offered by Japanese restaurants.

Buckwheat, like rice, should be excluded from your diet. If you really like buckwheat, then buckwheat monoration for weight loss is better for you.

But mushrooms, with the exception of dried ones, are welcome on the Kremlin menu. They can be fried or eaten salted. From vegetables, you can eat cabbage, both raw and stewed. For example, you can cook stewed cabbage with mushrooms.

Sauerkraut has the lowest scores, and is rich in vitamin C and contains fiber, which is so necessary for all protein dieters.

But the favorite dishes of traditional Russian cuisine - syrniki and pancakes will have to be completely excluded because of the huge amount of sugar and flour that they contain.

The Kremlin food system allows milk, but in small quantities, since it does not have zero carbohydrate value.

As for fruits, they have a high carbohydrate value. Therefore, at the first stage they are prohibited. Only in the later stages can one afford to introduce a small amount of fruit into the diet.

Vegetables are allowed only low-carbohydrate (zucchini, eggplant, radish, tomatoes, cucumbers). They can be eaten raw or made into diet salads.

For example, prepare a Greek salad. Toss lettuce, pitted olives, bell pepper, tomato, and low-fat cottage cheese. Drizzle with olive oil and spices.

The popular Mimosa salad is also suitable for the last stages of the “kremlin” (since it contains potatoes, it is not recommended to use it for the first 14 days). Take a can of canned fish, head onion, a couple of boiled potatoes, 3 hard-boiled eggs, and boiled carrots. Finely chop all ingredients into separate bowls. Lay the salad in the following layers: fish, onion, mayonnaise, proteins, potatoes, mayonnaise, carrots, mayonnaise, yolks.

Since the protein diet still limits the variety of food consumed, it is recommended to use vitamins with the Kremlin diet, especially at the first, most difficult stage.

FAQ

Since the “Kremlin” is a fairly long nutritional system for losing weight, losing weight always has many questions. The most popular of them:

1. What to do if the weight has risen on the Kremlin diet? Sometimes a situation arises when at the first stage the weight went down, and when you went to the second stage, you found that the weight was standing still. To get started, check all prepared foods you buy from the store for hidden carbs. First of all, pay attention to sausage, sausages, cottage cheese, yogurt.

2. What to do if the weight on the diet does not decrease at all? Eliminate the most high-calorie foods from the protein diet, such as nuts, butter, lard. You may be eating too many calories and spending too few. For efficiency, add exercise to your lifestyle.

3. Why doesn't weight go off on a diet, subject to all the rules and restrictions? If you strictly follow all the rules, and the weight does not decrease, consult your doctor. You may have a disease thyroid gland which can affect body weight.

4. How much can you lose on a diet? Each organism is individual. Some give up everything after the first week, as they cannot deny themselves sweets. However, most healthy people tolerate this diet perfectly and get effective results. For a month of nutrition according to the system, you can lose from 10 to 30 kg.

In the 90s, there were rumors about this nutrition system that with its help, many deputies and high-ranking officials were able to noticeably lose weight, among whom were Yuri Luzhkov (the mayor of Moscow) and Sergei Tsoi (his press secretary). Soon the secrets were revealed - this is how the Kremlin diet appeared, the popularity of which has not been falling for 2 decades now.

essence

It is based on a scientific treatise called "Conditions for effective nutrition that are used in the development of the menu of astronauts and the US military" (therefore, it is sometimes called the methodology of American astronauts).

The fundamental principle is the minimum consumption of carbohydrates, at which the body begins to actively expend energy reserves of fat deposits. The focus is not on how much food you ate, but how much carbohydrates you absorbed with it.

All products are measured in points, or conventional units (c.u.): 1 point = 1 c.u. e. = 1 g of carbohydrates. At each individual stage, you need to use no more a certain amount these u. e. Therefore, a specially designed table of products and dishes with their indication should always be in front of your eyes.

So the essence of the Kremlin diet is its low-carb content. The weight loss systems of Atkins and Kwasniewski are very similar to her.

From the life of the stars. According to some sources, the Kremlin diet helped Larisa Dolina, Nikolai Rastorguev, Elena Kukarskaya, Alexei Panayotov and many other celebrities lose weight.

How does it work?

Low-carb diets always produce the most top scores(8-15 kg per month), so it is quite possible to lose weight on the Kremlin diet. Changes in the diet cause many body systems to work in a completely different way, which ultimately leads to weight loss:

  • the minimum amount of carbohydrates, which are the main source of energy, leads to ketosis - the breakdown of stored fat;
  • accordingly, deposits on problem parts of the body gradually disappear;
  • along with them, the orange peel becomes not so pronounced, and with the simultaneous use of anti-cellulite ointments and gels, you can completely get rid of it;
  • the state of ketosis is characterized by the normalization of metabolism, within which lipolysis also proceeds - as a result, new fat reserves are not deposited;
  • the level of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood decreases, so that unexpected releases of inulin do not occur - merciless bouts of hunger are not felt.

As a result, the weight decreases - for someone quickly (up to 10 kg in the first 2 weeks), for others more slowly (minus 8 kg per month).

If, after going through all the steps, you do not feel any results, you should seek help from nutritionists (perhaps you did something wrong) or doctors (often the problem is health).

Description of stages

The Kremlin diet refers to fairly strict nutrition systems. Some argue that you can’t just call it a program, since it represents a whole philosophy of life. To lose weight with its help, you need to go through stages, the sequence and essence of which cannot be changed.

Stage 1. Induction phase

Duration - 2 weeks. The result is minus 10 kg.

The amount of carbohydrates is only 20 gr (= 20 points) per day. The old diet should not be changed, let it be familiar: 3 times a day + snacks at any time.

Look for recipes with points - they will reduce the time for calculations. Portions are regular in size, you can eat until satiety, but do not overeat. It is necessary to drink 2-3 liters of water and take multivitamins.

Constipation is possible - treat them with vegetable fiber (eat more cabbage, lettuce,).

  • meat, meat products;
  • fish, seafood;
  • a bird;
  • cheeses;
  • eggs;
  • nuts (sometimes only allowed from stage 2 of the diet);
  • vegetable oils, a small amount of mayonnaise and sour cream, fish oil;
  • drinks: water, tea, coffee;
  • sweeteners: cyclomate, saccharin, except for aspartame;
  • green vegetables (about 500 grams per day): lettuce, sorrel, radish, radish, olives, olives, dill, garlic, rosemary, parsley;
  • other vegetables (300 grams per day): asparagus, rhubarb, daikon, eggplant, celery root, zucchini, squash, pumpkin, spinach, onions, peas, beans, turnips, all types of cabbage.
  • sweets, honey, sugar, sweeteners (fructose, maltose, etc.), aspartame;
  • starchy vegetables: carrots, potatoes, beets (if only in small quantities);
  • fruits and juices from them;
  • cooking oils;
  • alcohol;
  • drinks with caffeine.

As can be seen from this table, breakfast is far from the main meal in the Kremlin diet. Focus on lunch.

Stage 2. Phase of active weight loss

Her task is to determine your individual daily portion of carbohydrates to get rid of unnecessary kilograms. If you have already reset as much as you need in the first stage, the number of points is determined to maintain stability. For this, the norm is increased by 5 c.u. in Week.

This requires constant monitoring of body weight. If you exceeded the number of points, broke down, or began to gain weight again, you need to return to the first phase. Stage 2 workouts will help speed up weight loss. It is advisable to take a blood test to track the state of health.

As a result, weight loss should stop at one indicator - this will be the end point of the second stage, so its duration is very individual. Think about a month.

The list of products is supplemented by the following:

  • vegetables: sweet red pepper, tomatoes, avocado;
  • dairy products: fat cream, processed cheese, fibrous, homemade, feta cheese;
  • more nuts: almonds, sunflower seeds, roasted peanuts, cashews, walnuts, pecans;
  • fruits and berries: strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, melons;
  • juices without salt and sugar : lemon, tomato;
  • alcohol (some experts strongly recommend refraining from drinking it).

Stage 3. Transition phase

Continues to increase the amount of carbohydrates in the diet by 10 grams per week. The task is to force the body to lose weight further. Physical activity will help. If during the week the indicators have not moved from their place, you will have to reduce the number of points of food consumed by 5 c.u. e.

Duration - until the moment you achieve the desired result. It usually takes a couple of weeks.

What can be added to the menu:

  • starchy vegetables: potatoes, split peas, spinach, parsnips;
  • nuts: peeled peanuts, pine nuts, pistachios, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds;
  • legumes: beans, lentils;
  • berries and fruits: cherries, grapes, apples, strawberries, peaches, kiwi, watermelon, grapefruit, bananas, plums, mangoes;
  • fruit cocktails diluted with water (1:1);
  • cereals: rice, barley, sesame seeds, bread.

Stage 4. Maintenance (fixing) phase

Low-carbohydrate nutrition continues - from now on it should become a permanent way of life. You had to find out how many carbohydrates per day you can eat without fear, what foods provoke weight gain.

Weight control continues. As soon as the extra 3-4 kg are gained, the amount of the daily carbohydrate intake is immediately reduced. You still need to drink plenty of water and exercise.

Advantages and disadvantages

The Kremlin diet has its advantages, which attract so many people to it, and disadvantages, which can negate the desire to use it.

Advantages

  • Efficiency: lost kilograms and melting centimeters show that the system works.
  • Absence of sharp bouts of hunger.
  • Diet variety.
  • The possibility of eating meat and alcohol.
  • Getting rid of bad eating habits (craving for sweets, for example).
  • Persistent results: if you consistently go through all the stages, the lost kilograms will not return.
  • The presence of vegetables and fruits will prevent vitamin depletion.
  • Increasing the level of "good cholesterol".

Flaws

  • In the process of splitting fats, ketone bodies are formed - highly toxic elements that can damage cells. They cause intoxication, in which the kidneys, liver, and brain suffer, but it proceeds in a hidden way, and the side effects do not “come around” immediately.
  • To draw up a menu, you should always have scales and a table of points at hand - there is too much trouble.
  • A large burden on the kidneys due to the abundance of proteins, which can lead to the formation of stones and the development of gout.
  • Animal fats affect blood vessels and can provoke atherosclerosis.
  • Diet serves as a catalyst for male diseases that may manifest themselves later.
  • Deficiency of nutrients, vitamins and calcium.
  • The restriction of fiber in the diet leads to violations of the intestinal microflora, intoxication with harmful products and constipation.
  • “Zombie”: instead of products, a person sees only the “sum of points” and as a result becomes a hostage to this far from ideal type of nutrition.

The cons of the Kremlin diet are serious enough to be ignored. Given its restrictive nature, with such weight loss, it is necessary to take drugs to compensate for nutrient deficiencies. Before trying the technique on yourself, you need to consult a doctor.

What does science say? Not so long ago, the English print edition of the New England Journal of Medicine published the sensational results of research conducted by British experts. They found that the Kremlin diet system increases the level of "good cholesterol" and reduces the levels of a fatty acid that provokes a stroke.

Contraindications

To avoid side effects after losing weight, you need to strictly follow the contraindications:

  • diseases of the heart and blood vessels: atherosclerosis, ischemia, hypertension;
  • metabolic syndrome;
  • diabetes;
  • kidney pathology;
  • gout and uric acid diathesis;
  • the formation of stones;
  • violations in the functioning of the liver;
  • frequent constipation;
  • dysbacteriosis;
  • menopause, pregnancy, lactation;
  • childhood and old age.

Experts strongly recommend consulting a therapist before going on a diet. Side effects can manifest themselves only after a few months and require a separate medical course of recovery for an exhausted and improperly functioning organism.

Required tables

And now we turn on the printer and print all the variants of the tables that are necessary for calculating points as part of losing weight on the Kremlin diet. There are many of them, but you need to sit with them once, figure it out and then actively use them when compiling the menu, taking into account the peculiarities of the stage at which you are.

You will also need complete tables of ready meals. Whatever the scrupulously calculating points at the stove, which will take a lot of time, just look for the appropriate recipe - and enjoy the variety of the diet.

Such a table of carbohydrates should hang in the kitchen of every person who is losing weight so that the dishes do not outweigh the daily intake. e. (conventional units).

Menu

It seems to many that the Kremlin diet is intended for the elite, and therefore the products for it are expensive and exotic. In fact, even for ordinary people it is very easy to make a menu for a week at the rate of 20 points for each day.

Many people successfully use the Kremlin diet for weight loss, although this technique has received a lot of criticism. Despite the duration and predominantly protein foods in the diet, it allows you to lose up to 15 kg in a month. The main thing is to count points daily and not break loose.

Losing weight quickly without feeling worse is the desire of many women. With proper observance of the "Kremlin" diet and knowledge of its features, you can get rid of extra pounds and feel the joy of life again.

Basic rules of the Kremlin diet

There are several options for how the “Kremlin” dietary nutrition system appeared, and why it is called that. The author of the technique is still unknown, many experts claim that the diet is based on the Atkins weight loss system. One of the versions about the appearance of the name is that the delicacies included in the list of permitted products (caviar, hard cheeses, sausage and seafood) were available only to the party elite, so the food system began to be called the Kremlin.

Others argue that the technique began to be called that way because of the increased interest of the population in everything related to the lifestyle of party members, that is, it was a kind of marketing ploy.

The diet in question is considered low-carbohydrate, it is imperative to consume a large amount of protein foods. However, you cannot eat this food in unlimited quantities, the optimal daily portion of meat should not exceed the palm of a person who is losing weight.

Each product is endowed with a value determined by carbohydrate units or, in other words, points. If you do not exceed the daily norm of units in a specific period of weight loss, you can quickly get rid of extra pounds.

The principles of weight loss according to the system in question:

  • Active weight loss occurs if at the initial stage you gain no more than 20 points.
  • Kilograms go away if in subsequent periods the diet consists of 40 units.
  • Stability in weight is observed with daily consumption of products that are generally estimated at less than 60 points.
  • If the figure exceeds 60, the person begins to gain weight.

It is worth paying attention that in addition to counting points, you should play sports, but in moderation. This can be walking, swimming in the pool several times a week, cycling, etc. If a person is accustomed to intense exercise, then you can add another + 10-15 units to the established norm.

Kremlin diet - menu options according to the points table

In total, the technique involves 4 stages of weight loss with different daily scores.

First stage

The initial phase of the considered power system usually lasts no more than 14 days. The daily norm of units should not exceed 20 b.

On average, during this period it is possible to get rid of 5 kg, but it all depends on the individual characteristics of the organism. For some, it is possible to throw off almost 10 kg, while for others it is difficult to get rid of even 2 kg. In the latter case, the stage can be extended if health permits.

Second phase

In the second stage, it is allowed to introduce berries, some fruits, seeds and nuts. Be sure to control your weight: with satisfactory results, it is allowed to add 5 points per week. The duration of the phase depends on whether the person who is losing weight is satisfied with the achieved result (usually it is 2 weeks). If the kilograms do not go away, or the weight begins to grow again, you should return to the beginning again, that is, stage 1.

Third stage

Stage 3 should be stretched for at least 2 months to consolidate the results. The average number of units per day is 60, but it is worth conducting an individual analysis: is there any harm to the figure with such an amount of carbohydrates eaten.

Fourth stage

At the final stage, you can gradually return to your previous gastronomic habits, but within reason. The stage is designed to maintain weight.
