Apple diet: how does it work?

Always very popular, the apple diet allows you to lose weight quickly . Before going into the details of this regimen, it should be emphasized that any dietary changes must be agreed with the doctor. Do-it-yourself, in most cases, does not allow you to achieve lasting results and, above all, can cause damage to the entire body. Having clarified this, let's see how the apple diet works. Considered the dietary fruit par excellence, given that 100 grams provide only 54 Kcal, it is a food that is very good for you. Not surprisingly, an old popular saying goes: " An apple a day keeps the doctor away ".

Usually, this diet is followed only for five days , which decrease to three for the bravest people. It is a purifying diet, which detoxifies the body and counteracts water retention. Basically, if you follow the strong method you only eat apples and drink a lot of water, at least two liters a day. If desired, the water can be replaced with other liquids such as tea, provided they are not sugary. In the five-day regimen, on the other hand, both the fruit and other low-calorie foods are consumed, such as low- fat yogurt , skimmed milk, salad, lean meat and fish.
