The benefits of kefir-buckwheat diet

The kefir-buckwheat diet combines two components useful for the body. They tend to complement each other, which leads to faster weight loss.

Recipes for cooking buckwheat with kefir

To get rid of several kilograms of excess weight, you can not switch to kefir-buckwheat diet, but only eat these products during breakfast. The cereal soaked in a fermented milk drink energizes for several hours and allows you not to feel hunger until lunchtime. In addition, this dish makes it possible to regulate the work of the digestive system.

Cooking buckwheat-kefir porridge is very simple. For one serving, you will need to take 3 tbsp. spoons of cereal and 1 glass of kefir. Pour buckwheat with water and leave for 15 minutes to swell. After this time, drain the water and pour the cereal into kefir. It is best to leave the mixture overnight, putting it in a cool place and covering it with a lid. If the porridge seems too tasteless, then you can add a few berries or dried fruits to it.

Options for kefir-buckwheat diet

There are three basic types of kefir-buckwheat diet, including:

You can lose weight with buckwheat and kefir, spending fasting days. It is allowed to eat only steamed buckwheat porridge diluted with kefir per day. Or you can drink the steamed cereal with a fermented milk drink. You can diversify your diet during the day with dried fruits or apples. To get the desired result, buckwheat-kefir fasting days should be carried out on a regular basis. The weight will go away slowly, but the arrow on the scales will please you with its stability.

Pros and cons of kefir-buckwheat diet

Among the positive aspects of the buckwheat diet, the following factors can be distinguished:

Reviews of those who have lost weight

Christina writes:

“To say that the buckwheat-kefir diet is simple is to say nothing! My friend and I practice it very often. You can eat whenever you want. The main thing is to drink a glass of water in advance (about 20 minutes before the next meal).

I don't recommend having dinner later than 18:00. But you can drink kefir. Many people take low-fat kefir, and I choose a 2.5% drink. If you hold out for a week, then you can safely get rid of 4.5 kg. Only, after completing the diet, you cannot rush into food, otherwise the weight will return very quickly.

I personally advise you: do aerobics. I do 30 squats, 15 push-ups, 50 body lifts to pump the press. You can add 3 exercises for the glutes and hips. After a set of exercises, you must definitely stretch your muscles. For a beautiful figure, you can not be lazy and set aside a quarter of an hour a day. It's worth it"

Marcel writes:

“I lasted 5 days on the diet and did not experience any difficulties. It was easy and comfortable for me. Even the feeling of hunger did not bother. I lost 2.5 kg of weight in 5 days. The products did not disgust me"

Albina writes:

“If there is no willpower, then you shouldn't start sitting on buckwheat with kefir. After 3 days of the diet I wanted to give up everything, but I still made it to 6 days. During that time, I got rid of 5 kg, the body was cleansed, and an unprecedented lightness appeared in the body. I really like that on this diet you don't need to stand at the stove: I brewed buckwheat in the evening and that's it! And the products are not at all expensive. There are also disadvantages: it's hard to eat only buckwheat for 7 days. If you are afraid, it is better to go to the doctor first"
