Scientists agreed that the most effective way to get rid of extra pounds is a vegetarian diet.. Reported by the Journal of the American College of Nutrition.

In addition, a vegetarian diet will be very beneficial for people with type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome as it improves overall metabolism..

The study involved 74 diabetic patients, who were divided into 2 groups.

Participants in the first group ate exclusively vegetables, and those in the second group ate products within the framework of the recommendations of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD).

The only thing that was common for both groups was severe restrictions on the number of kilocalories consumed per day - no more than 500. (At a daily rate of 2000 kilocalories).

The result of the experiment amazed scientists: “vegetarians” lost more than 6 kg in a week, while participants from the other group were 2 times less.
