What are your associations with the name of the Japanese diet? Do you want fresh bread rolls or seaweed salad decorated with aromatic additives? In fact, you won’t find traditional Japanese food in the Japanese diet, but there are healthy and tasty foods that, with the right combination, can make you gain 5-8 pounds in just 2 weeks.
The principle of the Japanese diet is to limit carbohydrates and fats and to develop willpower and patience.
Detailed menu of the Japanese diet for 14 days
During the two-week diet we need:
- good coffee (we will drink a lot and often, so it was better if it was just very good, good quality coffee beans);
- beef;
- chicken eggs;
- tomato juice or some fresh tomatoes;
- White cabbage;
- vegetable oil (preferably using olive oil or linseed oil);
- any (favorite) fruit;
- sea fish (trout, chum salmon, halibut, coho salmon);
- carrot;
- biscuits, bread (rye);
- kefir (it is better not to choose low-fat kefir).
One day
- We drink freshly brewed coffee in the morning (not sweet). Before drinking coffee, drink a glass of warm water to prepare your stomach for breakfast.
- For lunch, make a light cabbage salad with butter. Such a salad helps cleanse the body (pure fiber), and olive oil allows the skin to stay young and beautiful (this is especially important during a diet). For lunch we drink a glass of tomato juice or eat a tomato.
- Dinner will be modest but satisfying. Take any fish, bring to a boil or bake in the oven without salt.

How easy is it to transfer the Japanese diet?
- It is important that you adjust yourself psychologically. Try to come to an agreement with yourself - before you start your diet, don’t suggest that you have to live with a system of strict restrictions now. Our organization clearly responds to such an attitude - it is determined not to say goodbye to being overweight. Imagine you are in a fun game.
- Remember to drink plenty of clean and non-carbonated water, not only during your diet but also afterwards. First, the water creates a feeling of fullness. Second, it is simply needed for normal metabolism to remove toxins and toxins from the body. And third, during eating restrictions, water saves our skin from dehydration.
- Avoid salt, sweets and alcohol completely during your diet.
- Try to get in and out of the Japanese diet smoothly. Likewise, after dieting, don’t splash on your favorite sweets, fried chicken legs, dumplings, and other foods that are harmful to your shape. Remember that the harmony and restraint of food is necessary for the harmony of the body.
- Consider all the items in the Japanese diet menu. Only a product taken at the wrong time can completely eliminate your efforts. Therefore, if you decide to follow a diet, follow all the rules.
Enjoy the new experience. And you will definitely be rewarded with harmony and well-being.
Gradually stop high-calorie foods 2-3 weeks before your diet, reducing the amount of food you eat.
