Chromium Diet: nutrition to tone skin and muscles
We have often thought about diets to lose weight but certainly few times we stop to think about what will be after weight loss and therefore a diet to tone skin and muscles.
On the other hand, the thing is clear: when we decide to lose weight we must put ourselves in the head that in most cases we will also need to tone up, because especially if we lose a lot of weight it is likely to have some sagging skin and not really tight muscles.
The chromodiet , this one I would like to talk to you about today, lasts four days. In each of these four days we will choose a dominant color for the foods we are going to eat that day. Red, for example, indicates foods that have a lot of antioxidant and anticancer beta-carotene and lycopene, just as green expresses a quantity of detoxifying chlorophyll or anthocyanin blue that we need for our blood vessels.
So you understand the fun game of this color diet?
Let’s see in these 4 days what we can eat to nourish and tone muscles and skin.
