According to nutritionists, the most effective for weight loss and health are balanced nutrition systems.

These include the Four Palms Diet, developed by Danish nutritionist Susie Wengel.

What is the essence of the four palms diet

The day includes three main meals. Each of them should be measured in four handfuls.

The basis of nutrition

1st and 2nd palms – vegetables and greens

This is normal, but if you feel full, you can limit yourself to one handful. You can eat almost any vegetables and greens. The exception is potatoes, sweet potatoes and legumes.

3rd palm - carbohydrates

This palm should be used to measure out complex carbohydrates, which include bread, pasta, potatoes, rice, fruits and berries.

You can exclude carbohydrates from your diet from time to time. In this case, they can be replaced with vegetables (a whole handful) or protein (half a handful).

4th palm - whites

Proteins include meat, fish, seafood, eggs, cheese and legumes. Protein is not a necessary part of all three meals, you can limit yourself to two of them.

By the way, since the diet’s homeland is Denmark, and such a product as cottage cheese is unknown here, it is not mentioned in the list, but it can be consumed.

In addition to the above, the diet should include fats in the form of vegetable or butter, nuts, seeds, mayonnaise, cream, fatty cheeses, avocado or dark chocolate.
