The Dukan diet in recent years is becoming more and more famous, the motto of weight loss naturally!
We will try again to figure out more about the method invented by French nutritionist Pierre Dukan, who became even more famous for following through her diet, among other stars, even Kate Middleton before the wedding of the century with Prince William. Later it was known as the "Dukan Diet" was defined by the media "the diet of princesses".
In France now has become a real celebrity, just think that there are about 4 million people who follow his method. His book also depopulated in Italy and, it seems, he's turning his sights on the American market.
But let's understand something.
What is the Dukan diet?
What are the results it promises? What real benefits it brings? What are the contraindications?
Now in abundance civilization is becoming increasingly difficult to maintain the line and succeed, especially to slim down by excess pounds and increase as difficulties to do so sacrifice and prompts huge "sacrifices".
The Dukan method promises to lose weight naturally, returning to enjoy consuming foods which evolved humans. Prehistoric man was Hunter and collector, and then ate mainly animal protein and vegetables.
So we talk about the consumption of well 100 different foods foods, 72 of which belong to the animal world and 28 from that plant.
The Dukan diet proposes a method to lose weight and then maintain your new balance, divided into 4 phases:
The first, called "attack phase", is short-lived and promises immediate results. During this phase are given to eat only foods 72 based on proteins.
The second, called the "cruise phase" would lead the interested in his balance weight. During this phase the diet is to alternate days during which you consume protein only day during which you consume protein from Vegetables accompanied 28 selected.
The third, called "consolidation phase" lasts 10 days more for each pound lost earlier would lead the interested towards a first return to a balanced diet. The goal is to consolidate the weight achieved, reaching in a gradual return to "two gala meals".
The fourth, known as "definitive stabilization phase" that is absolute respect by 3 principles:
1) Choose one day per week during which only consume proteins
2) playing sport or at least keep active
3) Consume 3 tablespoons of bran per day
To analyze in depth the Dukan diet is a low-carb diet particularly boost that by eliminating carbohydrates, at least in the early stages, produces the phenomenon of ketosis.
Meanwhile, as often happens following low-carb diets, following this method you will lose weight in a short time, losing so many liquids, but not having the body in a balanced and healthy in the long term.
Meanwhile, there are plenty of people who have lost weight following the Dukan diet have given way to a veritable Tam-Tam via web, building a kind of virtual community that today includes over a hundred websites, forums and blogs dedicated entirely to the method and its founder.
But what doctors think? Italian website of the Dukan method tells how the French medical corps, as in other Western countries is grappling with combating increasing obesity of today. So much that he used the expression "first non-infectious epidemic", to describe gravity. French Doctors also claim that there are few medicines and lack of effectiveness and that even among the enormous offer orientation of diets, more or less, is difficult.
Apparently there are many general practitioners, at least in France following the results found on their patients eavrebbero adopted the Dukan method.
You think that today, the Dukan diet was even translated into 10 different languages and has crossed the border of 20 different countries reaching between others even Korea, Russia and Bulgaria.
At a recent medical Conference Pierre Dukan said: "such a mobilisation by users be enthralled by my method, an expansion so powerful and contagious to overcome borders and cultural differences and that enjoys the support of the medical profession make me think that I maybe put his hand on a universal dimension of weight loss. The approach to a natural diet to counter cultural drift abundance linked that causes overweight problems that we know in today's world ".
Beyond marketing, blue gown and elegant gait involving its creator, the Dukan diet has all the air to be a very low-carb diet boost, characterised by a whole series of ploy aimed at a very restricted calorie consumption at the expense of proper nutrition with the right balance in intake of fats, carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins and minerals.
