Want To Lose Weight? Try The Brazilian Diet!

When you hear the word ‘Brazilian’, what is the first thing that comes to your mind? Umm… maybe a tall woman with a perfectly toned body like Fernanda Motta or Camila Morais.

Did you ever wonder what the secret of their perfect body shape might be? Well, most of us do. Their secret to a perfect body is nothing but the diet that they follow – The Brazillian Diet. This diet is all about eating healthy fruits and vegetables, and weight loss is just one of its happy side effects.

The Brazilian Diet has two variants – one is the Fast Brazilian Diet and other is the Normal Brazilian Diet.

1. Fast/Effective Brazilian Diet

This diet promotes weight loss in a very short period. People have claimed that they lost up to 20 pounds in just 2 weeks. Though it helps you lose weight really fast, it can be harmful because it is not considered as a nutritious diet plan. So, we suggest that you do not follow it.

2. Normal Brazilian Diet

The main motto behind this type of diet is to increase the consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables. All you have to do is stick to this diet for exactly 4 weeks, and you’ll see the results within a month.

Here is a weekly diet plan for you:

Day 1 – Monday

For Breakfast: Have a glass of fresh orange juice, 1 banana, and an orange (optional).

Snack On: 1 slice toast along with a glass of fresh orange juice.

For Lunch: 100 grams of fresh vegetable salad and 100 grams of boiled fish.

For Dinner: Eat the same food that you had for lunch.

Before Sleeping: 1 toast and a glass of fresh orange juice.

Day 2 – Tuesday

For Breakfast: A glass of fresh apple juice and a boiled egg (soft-boiled).

Snack On: A glass of fresh apple juice and a small piece of toast.

For Lunch: 4 lettuce leaves, 2 boiled and mashed potatoes, and 100 grams properly cooked meat.

Day 6 – Saturday

Day 7 – Sunday

For Dinner: A bowl of vegetable soup (fish stew or creamy mushroom) along with 3-4 lettuce leaves and 100 grams of fresh fruits (orange, apple or pineapple).

Before Sleeping: 2 dried figs and a glass of fresh apple juice.

Stick to this diet for 3-4 weeks, and no longer than that. Since you will be eating fruits and vegetables, your body will get enough vitamins and minerals. Once you are done with it, continue eating fresh fruits and vegetables, and then slowly increase the intake of foods that are rich in protein.

Regular and moderate physical activity is a must if you are following this diet. If you cannot follow a proper workout regimen, try walking, jogging or cycling for at least half an hour a day.
