Anna Johansson, a nutritionist in Sweden, is the author of the 6 Petal Diet. To date, the six-petalled diet has received positive reviews. It is used by many Europeans who have successfully lost weight. According to statistics, up to 800 g per day are lost, depending on the initial weight.
The author of the diet brings to our attention a diet based on the principle of mono-diet. A specific product is provided for each day, and the days should be clearly spent one after the other, as defined in the principles of this weight loss method. Anna claims that by alternating mono-diets for 6 days, you can achieve the desired results in a short time.
In addition, the author of the diet took into account the psychological side of weight loss in humans. He suggested that the principles of nutrition be illustrated in the form of a colorful flower with six petals. To do this, you need to cut a flower with six petals, give a color to each petal and write the following: fish, vegetables, chicken, cereals, cottage cheese and fruit. In the same order, a 6-petal diet should be followed and at the same time, at the end of each day, a petal with the appropriate name should be cut. Thus, you can prepare yourself psychologically for the fact that the day was successful and the power of will overcame temptations.
