Three studies conducted from 2017 to 2019 found that doing the fast diet – eating 500 calories two days a week and then eating a normal diet for the remaining 5 days – can reduce blood sugar and body weight in both humans and mice. In particular, a 2017 study on a sample of 100 people with high blood sugar found improvements in both blood sugar and body weight reduction after three months of fast diet.

In this article we see how to do a fast winter diet to reduce blood sugar and weight in 3 months, losing 7 kilos in total but also including holidays such as Christmas and New Year.

THE WINTER FAST DIET TO REDUCE GLUCOSE AND WEIGHT

Rules. The fast winter diet includes 2 non-consecutive days at 500 calories per day, and the other days of a normal diet. In this article we will see how not to go wrong with the fast diet. A dietary day scheme and a normal day scheme. On holidays or on Sundays, you can replace the normal day with a free feeding day.

On non-holiday days, you should instead follow the normal day scheme that I propose on page two, for men and women, to be sure not to compensate the low-calorie days with too many calories.

In this way, the Winter Fast Diet can make you lose 7 kilos in total safety.
