Chemical diet Osama Hamdiy

The vast majority of weight loss methods involve reducing the total calorie intake of the diet. Using this approach is necessary so that the body begins to use fat reserves accumulated over a long time for energy. But this dietary postulate also has significant drawbacks: stress on the body created by a feeling of constant hunger, and significant disruptions in the activity of certain internal organs. Almost the only exception is the diet developed by specialist Osama Hamdiy. Another name for this weight loss system is a chemical diet.

A little history

The author of this figure correction method, Osama Hamdiy, is an American doctor. He initially created his nutritional system for obese diabetics. The author's diet was based on the reprogramming of metabolic processes, which allowed endocrine patients to say goodbye to extra pounds.

According to the results of clinical trials, when using this method, owners of impressive dimensions with a body weight of 100 to 150 kg lost weight by a third. In addition, thanks to the practice of this nutritional system, their blood sugar levels decreased and their overall well-being improved. The weight loss program for diabetics is called "Why Wait. "Over the years, it was improved by the efforts of Dr. Hamdiy and his colleagues.

This is how a chemical diet appeared, which today is actively and, most importantly, successfully used by obese people around the world.

The essence and principle of operation of the power system

Osama Hamdiy's weight loss method is truly unique. She is able to save any person from obesity, even in an advanced stage, namely II and III degrees of severity. This effect of the chemical diet is explained by the fact that when forming its diet, the emphasis is on proteins and special combinations of products that act as a trigger for activating metabolic reactions in the body necessary for the breakdown of fat deposits.

The effect of losing weight is also achieved by reducing the calorie content of food consumed, but this principle is still not the main one. Additionally, the menu includes a minimal amount of carbohydrates. As a result of all these disturbances to which the diet is subjected, weight loss occurs due to a reduction in fat depots, and not at all muscle mass, as is often the case with other nutrition systems.

Chemical diet rules

  1. Chicken eggs play the role of the main product in the diet menu. They have a unique balanced composition and have a fairly low energy value, so they are ideal for weight loss. In addition, the egg is completely absorbed by the body and provides a long-lasting feeling of fullness.
  2. Other types of proteins suitable for consumption on a chemical diet are low-fat varieties of fish and meat (with the exception of lamb), cottage cheese and hard cheese with a low percentage of milk fat.
  3. Citrus fruits - primarily grapefruit and orange - are of great importance for losing weight according to the Osama Hamdiy system. It is advisable to consume them together, which helps speed up energy metabolism and metabolism in general.
  4. Also included in the list of foods allowed on a chemical diet are most fruits and vegetables, whole grain treats and bran bread; black, herbal and green teas; still mineral water, natural coffee.
  5. A sufficient number of types of food are prohibited - potatoes, sugar and all kinds of sweets, any fats (both vegetable and animal origin); almost all flour products, alcoholic beverages. From fruits, you should not eat grapes, bananas, figs, dates and raisins. The absolute majority of fermented milk products and drinks, as well as milk itself, are subject to the strictest taboo.
  6. You should drink at least 1 liter of clean table water per day. It is advisable to absorb liquid in the intervals between meals, and not during the meal itself.
  7. You need to salt food in moderation. In general, the less the better. And this should be done immediately before serving the dietary dish.
  8. Food can be cooked by steaming, grilling, baking and stewing. Oil, herbs and spices cannot be added to the food.
  9. Every morning you need to weigh yourself and record your body weight. But this manipulation must be performed exactly after bowel movement.
  10. You should eat until you feel full. It is forbidden to overeat!
  11. The optimal period for following a chemical diet is seven days, so it is better to start losing weight on Monday.
  12. You can stick to this weight loss method for a maximum of 1 month.
  13. If you feel a strong feeling of hunger in the intervals between meals, it is permissible to give yourself small snacks in the form of a fresh cucumber or tomato, preferably without salt.
  14. The last meal should be no later than two hours before going to bed. In this case, the food will have time to be completely digested, and the resulting calories will not be able to turn into fat deposits on the body.
  15. If for some reason there is a failure in following the method - for example, you missed one diet day - you should start the weight loss course from the very beginning.
