Does the Plank diet work?
What are the results of this diet? Well, saying it does not work would be inaccurate. In fact, if thoroughly followed, without any treats, this diet actually gives results, including a 9kg weight loss in just two weeks. At the same time, however, by following quick diets like this one you always risk that your body will immediately regain all the kilos lost as soon.
In short, the Plank diet does work, but at the same time, we suggest you to be wary of diets that promise immediate weight loss: they only work because they cause an abrupt metabolism change, which forces your body to burn fat to make up for caorie shortage. But is this harmful? Let’s find out immediately.
Plank diet: side effects
In this diet there are no fibers and carbohydrates, thus it is very unbalanced and can cause constipation and deficiencies. Also, given the high consumption of eggs, it may cause an increase in cholesterol levels.
In this food regime there are no sugars, which can a plus especially for people who eat tho many of them. However, at the same time, the high quantity of protein might have side effects, for example causing kidneys overload and increasing the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
In short, as always, we recommend you to see a nutritionist to study a diet according to your personal habits.
