Every Other Day Diet – Jump Start MetabolismThe Every other day diet goes under various names – The Alternate day diet, Intermittent fasting, Fasting every other day, The Longevity Diet, but the principle is the same: eat very little one day – up to 400 calories and as much as you like but not in excess the next day. Lose weight fasting every other day is a very popular method to jump start metabolism for fast weight loss.
The Every Other Day Diet (QOD – Latin term “Quaque Other Die” which means doing something other day) was created by kidney specialist Dr. John Daugirdas. What is the theory behind the QOD diet?Those who followed the very low calories diets know that it is difficult to adapt to the new low calorie levels and the feeling of constant hunger; then when you finally managed it - you stopped losing weight! It happens because your body switches to starvation mode thinking there is not enough food, your metabolism slows down releasing energy slowly. The QOD diet tricks the body into thinking that there is plenty of food by eating a normal amount of food every other day which keeps the metabolism high and you will be able to lose weight easily whilst you modestly restrict your total average intake of calories.The QOD diet allows a person to restrict their average caloric intake, without feeling that they are hungry and deprived of food.
On your OFF days you will be able to eat up to 400 calories, counting your calories carefully. About half of these calories should be from juices that contain lots of sodium and potassium but low in calories for example such as tomato or vegetable juice. The remaining calories should come from 25 – 50 kcal mini meals. You also need to take 30 grams of high-biologic value protein powder to help maintain your muscle mass and help control hunger.
The Every Other Day Diet is Not for You If:
Basically the diet is for people without health problems who want to lose small amount of weight ones in a while.
Those of you who have the discipline to stick to this simple and effective diet will enjoy benefits such as weight loss, look and feel better; live longer accordingly to "The QOD Diet: Eating Well Every Other Day" by Dr. John Daugirdas
