In the United States it is literally depopulating, thanks also to the notoriety of its authors. The Dubrow Diet is the latest in diets, and is the recipe for wellness and longevity according to Heather and Terry Dubrow . Heather Dubrow is the star of
The Real Housewives of Orange County while Terry is a leading doctor in the reality show Botched . He is sixty years old and keeps fit thanks to this method.

But what is the Dubrow Diet?
The Dubrow Diet is based on the concept of Interval Eating and is divided into phases, to lose up to 10-20 kilos.

1. In the first phase , you only eat for eight hours and don’t eat for sixteen hours straight. The Dubrows recommend concentrating your meals between noon and eight in the evening (that is, by eight you must have finished eating) for 5 days, from Monday to Friday. You cannot drink wine. It should be done until almost all excess weight is lost.
2. In the second phase, these rules are followed:

– you fast every day for twelve hours a day. For example, if you finish dinner at eight in the evening, you don’t eat until eight in the morning. This is if there are only a few kilos left to lose, for example one to three kilos. On weekends we can allow ourselves a free meal of your choice, as long as this rule is maintained.
– you fast every day for fourteen hours a day. For example, if you finish dinner at eight in the evening, you don’t eat anything until ten in the morning the next day. Here, too, one free meal is allowed per week. Ideal for those who still have 5 kilos to lose.
You can have a glass of wine.

Ok, but what to eat on the Dubrow diet?

In the first phase , which can allow us to lose about 2-3 kilos a week, we eat only these foods to our satisfaction:
leafy vegetables (Chinese cabbage, spinach, leeks, chicory, beets, rocket, salads), a handful of walnuts o almonds or 90% bitter chocolate for snacks, lean meat proteins, fish, tofu, tempeh, egg whites, bresaola, avocado, olive oil, skimmed Greek yogurt, fermented coconut yogurt, seaweed, green beans, coffee, tea and beans .

In the second phase, you can introduce: 1-2 portions of fruit per day of your choice (ie 160 grams in total) with little sugar, or 80 grams of fruit and a slice of toast or 25 grams of oat flakes.

In the maintenance plan, the 12-hour fasting window is maintained for every day, keeping the carbohydrates of two fruits of your choice + a small portion of whole carbohydrates such as two slices of toast, 50 grams of basmati rice or wholemeal pasta.
On weekends you can eat more carbohydrates, with moderate doses.
