Starter Cultures for Weight Loss

Obviously, this is not a “magic pill” which can make a person slim and fit overnight. Such a “pill” simply does not exist. According to research, diets consisting of strict restrictions for nutrition for certain periods of time are absolutely ineffective in the long term. Lost kilograms return very quickly. A strategy of changing habits is much more effective, and it leads to slow, but long term results.

1. Visit an endocrinologist (you may have a disease leading to overweight).
2. Exclude or severely limit consumption of sugar and fructose, fruit juice and honey included.
3. Strongly limit the use of products containing sugar, fructose (reading the food label ingredients will help to identify such products).
4. Limit the use of alcohol (no more than 150 ml of dry wine per day).
5. Use probiotic fermented milk products without sugar and additives (you can use it with fruits and nuts).
6. Ensure the proper level of physical activity (a daily one-hour walk at an above-average pace is a minimum plan).
7. Also eat other foods, including fruits (no juice but fruits because fruits are fibrous, and they slow down fructose absorption), vegetables, meat, dairy products, cereals, even potatoes, pasta and bread (wholegrain bread is better).

But you should eat slowly, taking moderate portions. If you still feel hungry after eating, wait for 20 minutes before starting to eat additional portions. In many cases, hunger will pass because the mechanism of satiation is launched in the small intestine, and this takes time. If the hunger does not go away, promise yourself it will work and with a clear conscience have one more moderate helping.
