The dukan diet the facts
1. The Dukan Diet – The facts
The Dukan diet is one of a long procession of “fashion” “celebrity” diets that appear on a near annual
basis. There was the F Plan, The Beverly Hills, Cabbage, Atkins and many more diet plans that were going
to make us all slimmer and fitter.
So how does the Dukan Diet score on the achievability scale? At first glance it has a lot going
for it, having been developed by doctor and intuitionalist Pierre Dukan. The diet like its author
originated in France where we are told over more than 1.5 million French woman swear by this
diet. Amongst its keenest fans are Jenifer Lopez and Giusele Bundchen.
Since the release of Pierre Dukan’s book in English in May the diet is becoming more and more
popular in both the USA and the UK. Possibly one of the reasons for its popularity is that there
is no need to count calories or weigh the food you eat. However, you do have a very restricted
list of suitable foods, particularly in the early part of the diet when you are restricted to protein
only foods.
This may make it sound very much like the Atkins diet but there are some very marked
differences. When it says “protein only” that is exactly what it means, you cannot even look at a
lettuce leaf or a broccoli floret. Also this is very much a time limited phase of the diet which you
should only stay on for a week to 10 days.
As with the Atkin’s diet I think that such a high protein diet will give you some social problems
such as flatulence. So your friends may stay away from you during this period. You may also feel
tired and drained whilst you are on this phase of the diet.
The good news is that you should loose up to 10 lb in weight during this period. He Dukan Diet
was devised for people with serious weight problems who needed to lose a considerable
amount of weight. There are better ways if you are just looking to drop a dress size or get into
an old pair of jeans.
2. If you do undertake this first phase of the diet you are advised to drink 3 litres of water a day. A
typical days diet in what is called the Attack Phase would be eggs for breakfast, a piece of fish
for lunch and a steak for dinner. (Remembering to cut off any visible fat from your steak).
As you will already be able to see the Dukan Diet is not going to be for everyone but if you want
to lose a considerable amount of weight reasonably quickly then this could be what you are
looking for. On this website we look in detail at the Dukan Diet and other diets that originate
from Europe and the Mediterranean which can help loose weigh at a pace that suits them.
Please note if you undertake any extreme diet plan such as the Dukan Diet you should consult
your medical advisor first.
