One of the most impressive transformations in recent years is Adele, who has lost a record 45 kg. And although the singer did not share her weight loss methods with the public, her fitness trainer Camila Goodis revealed the secrets of such effective results. According to her, Adele did Pilates and cardio three times a week, but since the singer does not like physical activity too much, the weight loss was based on an adjusted diet. She reduced her sugar intake, eliminated soda and fast food from her diet, and followed the Sirtfood diet: an innovative way to lose weight.
Danila Kozlovsky
The actor and director have an extensive filmography.
He has shot in foreign films and sensational projects. But he has enough haters. His actions and words have been criticized several times. Three years ago, he admitted that he had nothing against gays and believed that a film was worth making about them. He was immediately suspected of homosexuality. Kozlovsky's justifications did not help change public attitudes. “Often people who stand up for the morality of the nation and its purity themselves commit immoral acts, imposing aggression and malice,” says Kozlovsky.
In the same year, Danila starred in the film “Coach”, in which he played the role of football player Yuri Stoleshnikov. He acted in the film not only as an actor, but also as a director, producer and screenwriter. The audience did not appreciate his work. In response to this, he said that the public in Russia is very negative. “I didn’t expect such an amount of hatred <…> sheer hatred and rudeness. They write so much nasty stuff that sometimes you get lost,” Kozlovsky said in an interview.

Alena Vodonaeva
The former participant of “House-2” has her own categorical point of view, for which everyone condemns her. She spoke very sharply on this topic, saying that in Russia “either rich people or uneducated cattle give birth.” Subscribers were offended by the comparison with cattle. It is not entirely clear from her post what level of income she considers acceptable in order to have several children. But Alena still stands her ground. She claims that she herself does not dare to have a second child, because she wants to raise her son with dignity.
Some subscribers found common sense in her words, but the emotional presentation was still considered offensive. According to Alena, most children in families are born not out of great love, but out of a desire to indulge in pleasures. Her attitude towards body positivity has also recently drawn criticism.
Let's figure out what the sirtfood diet is all about
In addition to Adele, fans of the Sirtfood nutrition system include Prince Harry, Gwyneth Paltrow and Pippa Middleton, and it was developed by British nutritionists Aidan Goggins and Glen Matten. It is based on the action of resveratrol, a biologically active substance and a powerful antioxidant that activates the SIRT1 gene and the associated sirtuin proteins. They have already been dubbed “the genes of slimness, youth and longevity.”
A diet based on foods containing resveratrol stimulates metabolism, repairs damaged cells and removes toxins. Thus, Sirtfood nutrition is not a diet in its pure form, but a kind of anti-age program that helps you lose weight, get rid of stress, improve performance and tone up. It is especially important that sirtuins cannot be obtained from food or vitamin complexes, however, products containing resveratrol will stimulate their production. The authors of the diet called such products “sirtfoods”, by analogy with superfoods: they are what a diet for weight loss should consist of.
Yuri Loza
The song “On a Small Raft” is known to many residents of the country. However, recently the singer has become a household name not thanks to his new work, but to his scandalous statements. He conveys his point of view without the slightest modesty, devaluing everything he talks about. Yuri allows himself to criticize the work of such mastodons in music as Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones.
“80 percent of what is sung by the Zeppelins, that is, Led Zeppelin, is impossible to listen to. Because it was played and sung poorly. At that time, everything was accepted, everything was liked.”
He did not even consider the conquest of space by Yuri Gagarin a feat. The singer believes that there is nothing heroic about lying in a rocket most of the way. Loza also spoke about the anorexia of Angelina Jolie, who was hospitalized several years ago with a weight of 35 kilograms. At first Yuri sympathized with her, then accused her of mental illness, and then joked that there were three Angelina Jolies in him.
Sirtfood diet and Pilates: how Adele lost 45 kilograms
Recently, 32-year-old Adele lost more than 45 kilograms. Everyone was interested in the question of how the singer managed to transform herself so much in just a couple of months. It turned out that the star, who was embarrassed by her new appearance, was following a Sirtfood diet. Its principles were formulated quite recently, but it has already become popular among the British. This diet involves eating foods that activate the so-called “thin genes,” or sirtuins. We'll tell you more about the nutrition plan that was developed by nutritionists Aidan Goggins and Glen Matten.
The Sirtfood diet, unlike many other nutrition programs, does not exclude alcohol and sweets. You can and even should drink red wine and chocolate. The entire diet is divided into several stages that must be followed in order to see results.
The initial phase lasts only a week and involves restricting calorie intake to approximately 1,000 kcal for three days. The daily diet consists of three glasses of green juice and one full meal. The juice includes kale, celery, parsley, green tea and lemon - all of which can help speed up your metabolism.
From the fourth to the seventh day, calorie intake increases to 1,500 kcal per day. You can drink two servings of green juices and eat a full meal twice a day.
The second phase (maintenance) lasts 14 days. This is when sustainable weight loss occurs. The authors believe that it is thanks to it that you can get a stable result, which means that the lost kilograms will not return.
The most popular foods to eat on a sirtfood diet are:
• green tea; • dark chocolate; • apples; • citrus fruits; • parsley; • turmeric; • cabbage; • blueberry; • capers; • red wine.
According to the diet's creators, these special foods work by activating certain proteins in the body known as sirtuins. It is believed that sirtuins affect the body's ability to burn fat, which leads to weight loss of three kilograms per week (importantly, the muscles do not "deflate" at the same time). To do this, you need to include a lot of protein-rich foods in your diet. The authors recommend eating fatty fish and dairy products (in moderation). They advise focusing on foods rich in polyphenols. Goggins and Matten called them “sirtfoods” by analogy with the well-known “superfoods”.
So, the main sirtfoods are buckwheat, capers, celery, chili, dark chocolate (containing at least 85% cocoa beans), coffee, olive oil, green tea, kale, garlic, dates, arugula, parsley, chicory, red onion, red wine, soybeans, dark berries (cherries, strawberries, blackberries, blueberries, raspberries), turmeric and walnuts.
Chocolate must be dark, as it contains fewer calories, and red wine can only be drunk a couple of times a week. But these delicacies are not completely prohibited! By the way, coffee is also allowed.
What makes this diet so easy is that you can repeat the two phases as many times as you like. The diet cannot be called unbalanced, since it does not involve strict restriction of certain food groups or calories for a long period of time.
Here is a simple green juice recipe from the creators of the diet, it can be easily prepared in a blender from healthy fruits and vegetables. Ingredients: 75 g cabbage, 30 g arugula, 5 g parsley, 150 g celery, half a green apple, lemon juice, half a teaspoon of matcha tea powder.
Matcha green tea is a superfood that helps your body burn more calories throughout the day. It is the purest form of green tea, obtained by grinding tea leaves into powder. It contains much less caffeine than a cup of coffee, but at the same time gives the body an energy boost.
As for Adele, she also worked out with a personal trainer. Exercise is an essential part of any weight loss journey, and experts recommend devoting about an hour a day to exercise. It also turned out that the singer regularly does Pilates. The pop star loves the Pilates reformer, which helps improve posture, develop flexibility and balance, and is also an excellent weight loss aid. The Hello singer isn't the only celebrity who enjoys this form of exercise; Jennifer Aniston, Kate Winslet and Madonna love it.
Alexey Serebryakov
Three years ago, the actor discouraged and insulted Russians with his harsh statement about the main features of his fellow countrymen. In 2012, the artist and his family emigrated to Canada. He explained this by saying that the social situation in Russia is too tense.
In an interview with Yuri Dudu, he said that the national idea of Russia lies “in strength, arrogance and rudeness.” At the same time, he continues to come to Moscow for the next filming. For this, some on the Internet call the actor a traitor. In response to this, Alexey expresses his opinion: he does not consider himself a traitor.
“Answer me: Russian doctors who treat children in Africa, are they traitors to the Motherland or not? We have six million Russians living and working abroad. Aren’t there too many “traitors”?
Agniya Kuznetsova
Many will remember the actress for her roles in the films “Everyone will die, but I will stay,” “Cargo 200,” “And the dawns here are quiet.” A few years ago, Agnia allowed herself to express a point of view against feminism. The actress is against equality between women and men and believes that the weaker sex should “cook borscht” more often.
“The position of women in society has changed a lot over the past 70 years, I think for the worse.
It is necessary for women not to have so many rights, but to sit quietly, perform their natural functions and not stick out…” she shared in an interview. Her opinion caused a strong negative reaction on the Internet. Agnia’s words that women are not capable of achieving anything significant offended many. Some of Kuznetsova’s subscribers commented that she probably judges by herself.
