Boiled Egg Diet (-3 kg in 7 days?)

The boiled egg diet is a restrictive weight loss technique. This recovery formula appeals to those who want to “lose weight fast”. But the boiled egg diet is a formula that is used in a specific context. Explanations, contraindications, and exit from the egg diet, I explain everything to you.

An egg consists of two consumable parts: the white and the yolk. Let’s start by describing these two parts, knowing that eggs will be mainly consumed in this diet.

egg white, protein

The egg white is the part of the egg that protects the yolk. It consists of 90% water. Among other components, there are mainly proteinthe main element is called Oval albumin but also lysozymes. This protein is interesting for its coagulant and surfactant properties.

Thus, they are the ones that allow Stabilize the egg white foam.

Only with 48 kcal / 100 g egg white food very light. Saves almost 90% water 10% protein And the no fat !

In terms of micronutrients, egg whites appear as A An interesting source of vitamins B2, B3 and selenium. 100g of egg white is enough to cover 25% of the recommended daily amount of these two vitamins.

After the egg diet

After the egg diet, a Rehabilitation is essential. Because if we suddenly go back to the nutritional rebalancing, there will be a minimum 1.5 kg weight recovery. It is therefore necessary, following this sequence, to switch to the flash diet (at least 900 calories) for at least 8 days. Then we resume our program for a minimum period of one month.
