This is the case with the 8-hour diet popular in Japan before. I haven't heard of it. Let's discuss it.
Eight-hour diet: Choose any time of the day (eight hours in a row) to eat, and stop eating any calorie-containing food at other times.
Eight-hour fat-reducing diet is a branch of intermittent fasting, and it is the simplest diet among many IF diets!
BBC 2065 438+02 reported that intermittent eating can not only lose weight, but also improve health.
Eat whatever you want in eight hours. How effective is this method? Japan's "Otology" program group helped us try it. They invited women of different ages for a two-week experiment.
What did the two dieters who participated in the experiment eat in 8 hours?
Pizza, creamy pasta, hamburger meat, rice, miso soup and even draft beer!
Can you really lose weight like this?
Two weeks passed quickly. Let's take a look at their test results.
40 generations of women
Before the experiment: 54.6kg, waist circumference 80cm
After the test: 53.3kg, waist circumference 7 1cm.
Successfully lost weight: 1.3kg, and the waistline lost 9cm.
20 generations of women
Before the experiment: 83.8kg
After testing: 79.5 kg
Successful weight loss: 4.3kg
Facts have proved effective, so what is the principle of losing weight?
Eight-hour diet can activate specific genes on uncoupling proteins, thus improving metabolism and promoting fat burning, so we will become thinner.
Let me give you a chestnut. When we eat three meals a day, if we want to consume 500 energy, our body will burn 65,438+000 grams of fat, while if we eat for 8 hours and want to consume the same 500 energy, our body will need to burn 65,438+050 grams of fat.
In an 8-hour diet, the time of eating and fasting can be completely controlled freely. The advocate of the 8-hour diet is Dr. Jim Stopani, who eats at 16: 00-24: 00 every day and fast at other times.
So you can also try eating at 10: 00- 18: 00 and fasting at other times.
Essentials of an 8-hour diet
1. According to your schedule, choose an 8-hour continuous period every day, during which you eat and drink, and the rest 16 hours fast. Such as12: 00-20: 00; 9:00- 17:00 and so on;
2. Regarding the frequency of use, there are two ways to choose: ① Choose three days a week to eat for 8 hours, and eat normally the rest of the time, so that users can use it for a long time; 2 Continue to use this diet for 2-3 weeks, then eat normally, and choose whether to use it again according to your physical condition after adjusting for a period of time.
3. The daily drinking water must reach the standard of "40ml per kilogram of body weight". Coffee and tea are not included in the daily drinking water. You must drink a glass of water after getting up every morning; If you weigh 60kg, you should drink 2400ml of water every day.
4.? There is no restriction on the number of meals and the amount of meals within 8 hours. It is recommended to eat less and more meals, but you must be full within 8 hours.
5.? 8-hour diet includes recommended food and restricted food, both of which are allowed, but recommended food accounts for the vast majority of daily diet;
In addition, if you want to have a good effect, you can appropriately ban some foods with particularly high energy, and appropriately eat some foods with high satiety and nutrition.
