The Coconut Diet review
It seems that anyone who's looking
for making fast money is coming up with weird idea and proposing us a
new diet plan. And you'll not believe but it
doesn't matter how weird the idea is, you can always find
people following it and always might be ones from thousands that
succeeded with it.
I'm going to talk about a new diet
plan which ispresented as a book "The Coconut Diet" by Cherie Calbom.
How the diet work?
The diet in the book is structured on a 3
week period of time. A low carb diet which is fortified
with magic ingredient "which melts the fats
on you" - Coconut oil.
Contrary to the approach that saturated fats
are not healthy for your body, now dear Cherie
Calbom claims the opposite that these - Coconut
oil which is rich of saturated fats, will magically improve
metabolism and burn the fats away.
How the Coconut diet Differ from others?
More efficient weight loss is achieved when
it's combined with low-carb diet, just like Atkins. Moreover,
coconut oil supposedly improves thyroid function and might be assisting even
in Candida treatment.
By the way, it seems that coconut oil really
became to a magical substance that assists to fight as many illnesses
as you wish. You can find it in almost every field you'll
look.
How the diet is structured?
When we check The Coconut Diet it is very
similar to a well known diet, Atkins' low-carb diet.
To give the diet ma ore effective looks it's divided to 4 separate
stages and all of them have its own goals to achieve.
The Coconut Diet Stages
The First stage
Lasts for 3 long weeks, restricts to dieters
consuming any kinds of Carbohydrates. They have to manage with lean
foods like turkey, chicken, fish, nuts, eggs and cheese.
Dieters have to drink up to 10 glasses of
water
Second stage
– Detox Stage
Lasts for 4 weeks in order of cleansing
liver, kidneys, gallbladder and Colon by drinking water mixed with lemon and olive
oil.
Third stage
On this stage at first during the whole diet
regimen dieter is going to have Carbohydrates in his meals. Assuming that
dieter already is 10 pounds lighter than at the beginning, he is allowed
to treat himself with some fruits, whole grains and potatoes.
Fourth stage
Introducing of more carbohydrates to diet
and keep drinking of coconut oil on regular basis.
What is the expected weight loss rate in Coconut diet?
It's expected to achieve 10 pounds
of weight loss during first 3 weeks, and slow the weight loss rate to
1-2 pounds per week, after that.
Interesting fact is that those weight loss
rates might be achieved by restricting of carbohydrates from regular
diet. Its well known that coconut oil enhances the function of thyroid
gland but as it is too rich of saturated fats. Efficiency of coconut
oil in this diet is somewhat confusing.
Is the diet scintifically proved?
The author of The Coconut Diet
isn't giving explanations about how Coconut Oil positively
influence on weight loss. She isn't giving any scientific
proves to her claims about coconut oil weight loss qualities.
It's more like science fiction than scientific approach to
health of dieters and their main goal of improving lifestyle. There is
no necessary need to put dieters' health in danger by
consuming significant quantities of saturated oils.
And a word of warning:
Very same results might be achieved by using
another proven and well balanced diet systems existing on the market.
Moreover, according my personal web research
I've found some testemonials about weight gaining with The Coconut Diet. Dieters complained that instead
of weight loss they become 5 to 8 pounds havier during first two weeks of diet.
So be aware that what may be good for one
doesn't have to be good for you too.
Conclusions
As I see The Coconut Oil Diet, as long as we
have no proven medical research results, I would not recommend it to you and dieters should avoid Coconut
Oil Diet, unless you urge to try it, regardless of the impact on your health.
