A type of diet called the "cold diet" appeared in the 80s of the last century.

Since then, it has been used by many actresses, models and ballerinas who would like to keep themselves in shape.

What can you eat?

On a cold diet, you are only allowed to eat cold foods or those that have been frozen.

Followers of this type of diet firmly believe that such food will take much longer to digest, since the blood vessels in the stomach and intestines narrow, and the activity of digestive enzymes decreases.

Benefits of a Cold Diet

It is believed that this type of diet provides a long-lasting feeling of satiety due to the long digestion of food.

In addition, the diet of those losing weight remains balanced, and they do not feel the need to significantly reduce the number of calories consumed.

Disadvantages of the method

The cold diet also has its disadvantages - first of all, the risk of stomach cramps, the likelihood of which increases due to the consumption of exclusively cold dishes on a regular basis.

In addition, experts are convinced that digestion that is too slow can harm digestion.

Finally, it's important to remember that for some people, eating their favorite foods cold can negatively impact their overall well-being and motivation.

For reference

Diet is a set of rules for food consumption by a person or another animal.
