I looked around to find the origins of the Danish diet, but I couldn't find the exact origins. I couldn't search for Danish diet or Denmark diet on places like Google, and I searched for dozens of diet methods on AOL diet - from Atkins to Jannie Craig, but I couldn't find anything similar. There were several Danish diet laws similar to the Danish diet in Korea, but they were not given much attention. . It seems that it is known that an alternative medicine hospital in Denmark is giving it to patients as food. Hospitals that practice alternative medicine often prescribe this type of diet. They say it's low in carbohydrates, but in my opinion, it's not that low. Consume it appropriately from grapefruit and toast. It is considered a balanced, ultra-low calorie diet. If you teach yourself to eat a set meal like this, excluding rice, you will be able to get an accurate feel for calories and gain the ability to objectively measure the amount of food. If you tell them to eat the same 700 calories from regular rice, most people will eat more than 1,000, but if you organize a Western-style diet like this, you can accurately judge the calories you eat. The problem is the process of transitioning to regular eating. No matter how much you supplement after losing weight, if the amount of food you ate before losing weight is the same, your weight will also be the same. If the amount you ate before losing weight is 100, your lifetime eating amount after losing weight should be around 70-80%, depending on how much you lose. Weight is just a result of what I eat and how active I am. If I continue my life the same as before, it is natural that my weight will return to the same level as before. What is the Danish Diet? The Danish diet is a diet implemented in Danish national hospitals and is basically implemented for two weeks. The principle of the Danish diet is that the ingredients of the food in the diet cause chemical reactions within the body's tissues to change the body's constitution. The diet is high in protein and low in calories, using eggs and vegetables while consuming almost no carbohydrates. The appeal of the Danish diet is that if you follow it for two weeks, you can not only lose up to 7 to 12 kg of weight, but also maintain it. (However, you must refrain from eating foods containing carbohydrates such as rice or sweet potatoes.) However, as effective as it is, it is also a diet that has many precautions to follow. In particular, you should not omit the type of food rather than the quantity, and if you miss even one meal, you must start over from the first day. Before going on a diet... It's important while dieting, but it's also very important before and after that period. Don't think, "I'm going on a diet starting tomorrow, so I need to eat well today." We need to make sure that the non-daily diet of eating only one type of food, or almost fasting, and the daily diet of eating several types of food are naturally connected. Before dieting, you should gradually reduce the amount in advance, and after dieting, instead of saying, "Let's eat as much as I can't eat before," you should gradually increase the amount of food or allow a grace period. If your eating pattern suddenly changes, it not only puts a strain on your stomach but also disrupts your body's metabolism. The diet contains 700-900 kcal and 60g of protein per day, 80% of which is animal protein, so there is no significant problem in terms of nutrition. However, if you eat only one food for too long, you may develop malnutrition and harm your health, so try it only for a short period of time.

Be sure to follow these instructions 1 Do not add salt to all dishes. Salty foods not only have the opposite effect on a diet that improves your appetite, but also make it easier for your body to absorb moisture, causing swelling and stretching the stomach. The Danish diet requires never adding salt when boiling eggs or grilling steak or fish. 2 Drink coffee black. Be sure to follow the rules of ‘No sugar, No cream’. Even if it is not your taste, you must always drink black coffee. Black coffee has no calories, so you can drink it as much as you like, and because it has a diuretic effect, it is helpful for dieting. However, if you drink it too strong, it puts a strain on your stomach, so drink it lightly. When you are too hungry, try soothing your empty stomach with coffee. 3 Grill or steam meat without oil. When preparing white fish or beef, it is best to grill or steam it in a frying pan without salt or oil. Keep in mind that toast or morning bread should be eaten as is without jam or butter. 4 Be sure to exercise at the same time. When losing weight through diet, you must also exercise to see more results and maintain a resilient body. Weight lost through diet alone is prone to the yo-yo phenomenon. I walk around the house at a brisk pace and climb most of the stairs on foot. Instead of staying still with the excuse that you don't have the strength to move because you've eaten too little, move more. 5 Season salads with only lemon juice or vinegar. It is absolutely prohibited to use salad dressings that are mostly made of oil. If it feels too boring, sprinkle some lemon juice or vinegar to enjoy the refreshing taste.
