INTRODUCTION |
__________ |
| __________ |
PRINCIPLE |
__________ |
 |
The
hyperprotein diet is based on the exclusive supply of proteins
and on an almost full restriction of sugar and fat. This leads
to ketogenesis and to neoglucogenesis, and therefore to a change
in our metabolism. This is due to the burning of our fat reserves
and it leads to the production of energy and of ketone bodies
which trigger a feeling of saturation, and therefore of appeased
hunger.
|
|
|
In
our day-to-day food, the proteins are either animal (meat,
fish, eggs, dairy) or vegetal (especially cereals, pulse and
vegetables). The proteins in the sachets are mainly derived
from milk, eggs and soy beans.
|
|
This
new food balance, called the Dissociated Hyperprotein Diet,
maintains our organism's level of proteins, which constitute
the basis of the construction of our cells. The protein preparations
do indeed amply cover our needs. Contrary to ordinary diets,
the muscular mass does not diminish. The loss of weight is due
to the body fat melting away !
|
|
|
| __________ |
DEVELOPMENT |
__________ |
|
Avoiding
sugar and fat in our food has the following effects : |
| |
| - |
on lipogenesis, with no additional body-fat is formed |
| - |
on lipolysis, with the melting away of existing
body fat is promoted |
| - |
on
ketogenesis, with from the third day onwards, ketone
bodies, which cause a feeling of saturation, are
released |
| - |
on
the organism’s sugar reserves, with disappearing
within 24 hours |
| - |
thanks
to the supply of proteins, the muscular mass is
safeguarded |
|
|
These
effects lead to a quick and comfortable loss of weight. |
| __________ |
INDICATIONS |
__________ |
| - |
obesity
and excess weight |
| - |
avoiding
complications hereof: cardiovascular diseases, diabetes,
insufficiency of the veins, respiratory troubles, apnee,
arthritis, etc. |
| - |
remedy metabolic troubles, such as hyperinsulinism and
hypertriglyceridemy |
| - |
the need to loose weight quickly (prior to a surgical
intervention) |
| __________ |
ADVANTAGES |
__________ |
| - |
a
quick loss of weight and reduction of the body-volume |
| - |
only
the body's fat disappears, the muscular mass remains
intact |
| - |
no
feeling of hunger (due to the anorexigenous effect
of the ketone bodies) |
| - |
a feeling of comfort (due to the psycho-stimulating
effect of the ketone bodies) |
| - |
protection
of the skin's tonus |
| - |
easy to implement |
| - |
flexible, since one can go back from one phase to
another |
| - |
safe:
this method is applied under doctor's supervision,
with an initial examination, vitamin supplements,
etc
|
| __________ |
SIDE-EFFECTS |
__________ |
| - |
bad
breath: this is due to ketone bodies being formed.
It therefore reflects the success of the diet. It
can be remedied by taking Exova® pills |
| - |
diarrhoea: hardly ever occurs. When it does, it
is caused by microbial excrescence, and the diet
must be halted |
| - |
constipation:
this indicates a lack of fibres in the intestins.
One then has to drink more water, which makes the
fibres swell |
| - |
orthostatic hypotension: this is caused by a reduction
in the volume of intravascular liquid. One must
then take extra salt |
| - |
loss of hair: very rare and it can be reversed.
Taking extra zinc is recommended |
| - |
nightly cramps and muscular weakness: these are
caused by a lack of potassium and disappear when
one takes Kalium Durette® |
| - |
headaches: occur during the first few days of the
diet with 10% of patients. They can be treated with
painkillers |
| - |
disruption of the menstrual cycle: this can occur
at the start of the diet, because the estrogenes
are partially synthesised by the adipocytes (at
the beginning of the diet, the reduction of fat
tissue forces the organism to adapt) |
| - |
allergy
to milk proteins or egg proteins: this occurs in
exceptional cases only |
| __________ |
STEPS |
__________ |
| The
four steps of the method: |
|
First
step: the active protein diet |
| |
This
step corresponds with the outbreak of the catabolism
of triglycerides (break down of the body fat), which
is caused by fasting. It is during this phase that
the ketone bodies supply a large part of the energy-reserves
to the organism.
|
|
Second
step: the selective protein diet |
| |
Gradual
reintroduction of slow sugars (bread, pasta, rice,
potatoes)
|
|
Third
step: stabilisation |
| |
This
is the most important phase, without which a renewed
increase of body-weight cannot be avoided.
|
|
Fourth
step: the food equilibrium |
| |
To
find again healthy and balanced habits. |
| __________ |
RESULTS |
__________ |
| - |
fast
loss of weight: 3 to 4,5 kilograms after a week;
2 kilograms per week once one is at cruising speed |
| - |
lifting
of insulin-resistance, with a glycemia which normalises
within a week |
| - |
fast reduction of the overall cholesterol by 5 to
25%, which leads to a parallel reduction of the
LDL-cholesterol (bad cholesterol) and a reduction
of triglycerides by 15 to 50% |
| - |
reduction of the arterial blood-pressure by 8 to
13% in the case of obese patients with a high blood-pressure |
| - |
decrease of apnee and snoring |
