Nutritionists, as well as those people who have already tried to sit on at least one of the variations of protein diets, talked about their advantages and disadvantages.

As the name suggests, any protein diet assumes that its top permissible foods are foods that contain a sufficient amount of protein.. Basically, these are products of animal origin, but those that have grown in the garden and have vegetable protein in their composition are not prohibited..

Protein diets are easier to withstand, because the menu is hearty and the person does not experience hunger for a long time, which means that breakdowns and the final rejection of such a diet for weight loss are practically reduced to zero. This fact is a definite plus, but there are also other benefits of protein diets:.

Volumes are melting before our eyes. Since the digestive tract takes a long time to digest animal proteins, calories are spent. It turns out that a certain amount of calories disappears by itself, without any hard training or hunger strikes..

The result will not keep you waiting. True, this is only if protein products are cooked with a minimum amount of salt and oil in an oven or double boiler.. Fried meat and cottage cheese with fatty sour cream and sugar will not allow you to lose even a gram of weight. If you follow all the rules, you will really get a good result..

The lost pounds do not return for a long time. The emphasis should be on the word "

The disadvantages of protein diets include:.

Deterioration of skin, hair, nails. The thing is that the body on a protein diet does not receive vitamins and minerals that fruits, vegetables, herbs, berries and cereals are able to provide us..

Mental health disorders. Many who have been on protein diets note that they want to sleep all the time, there is a feeling of chronic fatigue, insomnia, sometimes even aggressiveness. Here it is again about vitamins..

Congested kidneys. It turns out that when eating protein foods, the kidneys work more intensively than with a vegetarian diet.. Therefore, a protein diet can cause kidney congestion..

High cholesterol. An obese person may already have clogged blood vessels with cholesterol plaques, and if he also goes on a protein diet, then he cannot avoid serious health problems.

Lack of calcium leads to brittle bones. On protein diets, it is allowed to eat cottage cheese, only low-fat, which means sour. Therefore, most people who lose weight make the mistake of excluding it from the diet and eating only meat and eggs with fish.. Hence the calcium deficiency.
