The association of broth with this diet is unfounded. They have nothing in common except the name. Thus, this diet was developed specifically for the English Iron Lady, Margaret Thatcher. Hence, probably, the name.
Paternity is attributed to the famous American Mayo Clinic in 1979. The first to test his results was the British Prime Minister. The menu of this diet was developed according to the tastes of the first lady of the country. In confirmation of this fact, Thatcher's journal maintained a prescribed diet.
How the diet works
It is necessary to choose a diet for yourself depending on the mechanism of its work, as well as the proposed list of products. The opinion that the amount of food eaten directly depends on a person's weight is considered to be erroneous. In many ways, the increase in body weight is not favored by the amount of food eaten, but by its quality characteristics. The Magi Diet offers a balanced menu that includes a wide variety of foods. Spicy and fatty foods are excluded. It is the use of spicy and fatty smoked meats that causes the activation of the taste buds, which in turn increases the consumption of food and water.
The mechanism of this diet lies in the use of foods low in fat, but completely nutritious. This diet was designed with the various chemical reactions occurring in the human body in mind, not the principles of reducing calorie intake. The diet under this diet sets itself the task of activating metabolic processes in the human body, improving the breakdown of fat and removing biological poisons - various toxic substances.
