Philip Kirkorov has to constantly monitor his figure. Prone to corpulence, he tried many diets. In the end, he settled his gaze on the protein-grapefruit diet, which allowed him to lose 7 kg in 2 weeks.. According to this diet, only grapefruits and egg whites are allowed.. Yolk on the diet is prohibited because it contains cholesterol.

This diet is very low in calories and monotonous.. Eggs are an excellent source of vitamins, essential amino acids, fats and minerals. However, for the most part, all these useful properties have, sadly, the yolk. Therefore, to avoid nutritional deficiencies, it is necessary to eat several yolks daily, raw.. As for cholesterol... The egg really contains 300 mg of cholesterol, while the daily allowance for a person is 500 mg. However, do not forget that the body absorbs only about 2% of this essential substance from external sources..

Grapefruit is another story. This fruit is believed to promote fat burning, contain some specific enzymes, or have “negative” calories.. In fact, grapefruit is a great, low-calorie source of vitamin C (which eggs don't contain), just like any other citrus fruit.. In general, the combination of eggs and grapefruits (oranges, tangerines) is an excellent natural vitamin and mineral complex with low fat and calorie content, satisfying and pleasant taste..

However, it is impossible to adhere to such a diet for a long time - the amount of calories, carbohydrates, fats and other necessary food elements is too limited.. The best solution is to use this combination as a substitute for 1 meal a day..
