The fast 5 food diet
The Fast 5 Food Diet is a diet that is functional to rapid weight loss, but beware. It should not be followed for more than two or three days in a row, to deflate and quickly lose a kilo and a half. As the title suggests, it is a diet that is based on five foods, associated with mainly protein foods with high digestibility. It is an ideal compensation diet for those who have eaten too much or for those who plan to do so.
It is a comfortable diet, which can be used whenever we feel weighted down. Here is the scheme with the variations to follow for a maximum of 3 days in a row.
