Opinion and reviews

Alexandra, 29 years old

I had problems with my intestines after being on a long-term diet. After reading about the benefits of fermented baked milk and unloading on it, I decided to try it. After the first day, the stool returned to normal, and the third brought rewards in the form of lost kilograms. I will replenish my stocks of fermented milk products more regularly. A plus for me was the ability to drink tea while cleansing. Thank you for the article, very informative.

Sveta, 47 years old

I prefer to consume dairy products daily. Having read that thanks to cottage cheese, milk, and yogurt you can cleanse yourself without causing harm, I decided to try it. According to the rules, I cooked porridge and observed the drinking regime. I did it twice until I felt any results. There were similarly no negative consequences. Next time I’ll spend a day on fermented baked milk.

Maya, 22 years old

To cleanse myself, I made an apple-milk day for testing. The diet met all parameters: intestinal motility improved, I felt a charge of cheerfulness and energy, there was no hunger due to the diet every 2 hours. After consulting with a nutritionist, I decided to fast several times a week. A good alternative to constant, exhausting diets. In the future I plan to try a day on yogurt, milk and bananas.

Features of the milk tea diet

True, you can “unload” on a milk tea diet no more than one day a week. This diet is completely safe and very easy to follow! Thanks to milk, the body receives the necessary nutrients and vitamins, and the caffeine contained in tea activates fat burning processes. Tea in combination with milk is absorbed much better and becomes even more beneficial. In addition, as you know, tea strengthens the immune system and is a very strong antioxidant, and, therefore, reduces the risk of malignant tumors.

Contraindications

1. According to statistics, 15 out of 1000 people do not digest lactose. The breakdown of lactic acid products does not occur due to the lack of the necessary enzyme. In the first days of the diet, heaviness in the stomach and upset stool are explained as the body’s adaptation to the new diet. In the absence of the lactase enzyme in the intestines, fermentation mechanisms are triggered and indigestion occurs.
2. Milk is a strong allergen. With individual intolerance, rashes, a feeling of nausea, and vomiting appear on the skin.
3. A glass of dairy product is the daily norm for older people. If abused, there is a risk of developing atherosclerosis.
4. Cow's milk contains the substance casein. It envelops the gastrointestinal mucosa and impairs the absorption of nutrients. The condition is not to overdo the diet.

Dairy products are a universal remedy for healing the body, cleansing it of waste and toxins, and getting rid of extra pounds. Modern schemes of fasting days help to easily and without harm remove excess poison from the body. In the reviews of practitioners one can find confirmation of the healing results of the chosen technique.

Harm

When arranging milk unloading, it is necessary to take into account not only all the advantages of the procedure, but also the possible harm:

• Insufficient intake of nutrients. RD is an unbalanced diet. One or two days is enough for the body to begin to feel a lack of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements. As a result, metabolic disorders occur, anemia and even gastrointestinal diseases occur.
• Progression of chronic diseases. If there are any ailments in a chronic course, then RD can cause their exacerbation, transition to an acute state.

Milk research for weight loss

For many years, it was believed that extra calories ingested through dairy foods contributed to fat deposition. But a couple of years ago, scientists reconsidered their attitude towards milk, even with a high fat content.

Two independent studies were conducted. The first of them was carried out by Swedish scientists. Over a period of time, they observed a group of middle-aged people. The subjects regularly consumed butter, full-fat milk and cream. The results were impressive. It turns out that those who ate dairy were less likely to be obese than those who ate low-fat foods.

Another group of scientists in the Archives Of Diseases in Childhood published the results of a study on children. They stated that children who eat skim milk gain weight faster. An unexpected conclusion, right? But all this can be fully explained.

First of all, fatty foods make you feel full much faster. This means that a person eats less (this reduces the number of calories entering the body).

In addition, dairy products are rich in fatty acids. But it is these elements that have a strong effect on metabolism. They accelerate metabolic processes and take part in the utilization of fats with the release of energy.

So much for the relationship between the consumption of full-fat milk and low body weight. Of course, scientists are not satisfied with the results obtained and continue their research in this direction.

The benefits of a fasting milk diet

Milk is one of the best foods for a fasting diet. With a low calorie content - only 86 calories in one glass of skim milk - it gives a satiating effect. This occurs by enveloping the gastric mucosa and reducing the effect of gastric juice on it, reducing the feeling of hunger.

The composition of milk is unique. It includes proteins, fats, carbohydrates in the best proportion, a set of all necessary microelements and vitamins. Therefore, those who “sit” on a dairy diet do not experience nutritional deficiencies.

For most people, milk has a laxative effect, despite its complete lack of fiber. This occurs due to the partial entry into the intestines of undigested milk sugar lactose, which is consumed by intestinal bacteria. Water formed during the breakdown of lactose thins the intestinal contents, and carbon dioxide stimulates peristalsis.

The dairy fasting diet naturally helps you lose weight and cleanse your intestines without causing nutritional deficiencies.

My result

Following the milk tea diet, in less than three months, I lost 10 kg and was able to get rid of many of my complexes. This diet is useful for those who have heart and kidney problems, as it has a diuretic and choleretic effect, but all liquid intake must be completed before 18 hours.

This safe diet, which has no contraindications, is suitable for people of any age. My weight is now stable, but from time to time I resort to this wonderful diet again to keep in shape.
