Lambertucci diet: what it is and how it works

Rosanna Lambertucci hosted the Rai Più sani e più belli program for 16 years and during her long career she wrote several books on health and diets. For some years, he has often been a guest on television programs dealing with well-being and his advice is always much appreciated by the general public. Furthermore, during the Covid-19 pandemic, he started talking about his diet on social networks, also revealing interesting recipes.

His food plan, now renamed the Lambertucci diet , aims at purifying weight loss. The secret formula is 4 plus 1-4 plus 1 , or four ovo-lacto-vegetarian days followed by a vegan day, and is developed in three phases of ten days each. Pasta, bread, cereals, legumes, vegetables and fruit are allowed, while meat and fish are prohibited . With this protein restriction, the liver and intestines are relieved and, at the same time, cellular functions are reactivated.

Lambertucci's food plan includes six meals a day, namely: breakfast, morning snack, lunch, snack, dinner and after dinner. Thanks to this rhythm, blood sugar levels are kept within healthy parameters and the body is prevented from starving for too many consecutive hours.
