What to eat during the first three days of acupuncture weight loss

Losing weight is a relatively large social need, and there are many ways to lose weight. In addition to the most common exercise and diet, acupuncture is also a widely used method of weight loss. Of course, acupuncture is effective for weight loss, but it also requires the dieter to follow a certain diet in order to achieve long-term results. Below, I will introduce several recipes suitable for those who want to lose weight through acupuncture.

1. What is the acupuncture weight loss diet?

Acupuncture weight loss has unique therapeutic effects and is safe and convenient. It is very popular nowadays. If you use acupuncture to lose weight while combining it with effective diet therapy, the weight loss effect can be doubled. Therefore, the diet formulated in conjunction with acupuncture weight loss is the acupuncture weight loss diet.

2. Principles of formulating acupuncture weight loss diet

Principle 1: Although you are losing weight, you cannot reduce your diet casually. You must ensure the supply of essential nutrients for the human body, such as protein, vitamins, trace elements and water; what you can reduce is the supply of carbohydrates and fats.

Principle 2: Eat three meals at regular times and in regular amounts. Don’t eat unless you are hungry. Eat when you are hungry and eat until you are 80% full.

Principle three: Sweets, fatty meats, carbonated drinks, nuts and overly sweet fruits should not be included in the acupuncture weight loss diet. In addition, smoking and drinking should be strictly prohibited.

Principle 4: Learn to drink water. You should drink 2000~3000ml of water every day. It is best to drink boiled water. You can also drink some herbal teas such as chrysanthemum and rose. Drink one sip at a time, don't wait until you feel thirsty to drink a lot. Otherwise, the stomach will easily be stretched and the appetite will increase.

Drink more than 1 cup of milk a day: If you don’t consume enough milk, your body will absorb calcium from the bones to supplement it. At this time, your nails will lack luster and you will be prone to injury if you exercise.

Eat one egg a day: Fresh eggs contain high-quality protein and minerals that chicks need before hatching, which are also essential nutrients for humans every day.

One slice of low-fat fish or meat: A palm-sized slice of fish or meat contains about 80 calories. If you don’t consume enough fish and meat, you may feel tired easily, your hair may become drier, and you may even have menstrual irregularities.

Beans and bean products: If you rely entirely on animal protein, you are prone to "civilization diseases", so beans and bean products are essential.

Vegetables should be included in at least one of the three meals a day. If you don’t get enough vegetables, your skin will lack luster and you may get pimples on your face.

Eat one potato on average a day: Potatoes are a treasure trove of vitamin C and dietary fiber, are easy to make you feel full, and can be cooked in a variety of ways, making them a good choice for a weight loss menu.

Eat one piece of fruit a day: The vitamin C in vegetables will lose 50% after heating and cooking, while fruits can be eaten in the freshest state. However, most fruits are high in sugar, so they should be consumed in moderation as a snack or dessert.
