Brazilian women have always been among the most beautiful in the world. From Adriana Lima to Giselle Bundchen and other models, the tall and toned bodies of Brazilian models have always been an example for many women. But, have you wondered how they got so attractive? It’s all thanks to the Brazilian diet which can help you lose a record amount of weight and tone your body in no time!
The diet isn’t actually a diet – it’s a fine and new Brazilian lifestyle that many people consider too strict. The Brazilian diet will help you lose weight naturally and with no adverse side-effects. Here are the main principles:
– Eat more vegetables, fruit, fish and chicken;
– Stop consuming fizzy drinks;
– Eat appropriately sized portions;
– Be aware of the calories, but don’t rely on counting them constantly;
– Avoid consuming processed and junk food;
– Don’t consume alcohol until you reach your goals;
– Drink lots of water;
– Make sure to eat foods that have health benefits;
– Understand the difference between need and greed.
The science behind the diet is simple – eat less and be active and you will lose much weight. Listen to your body and understand what it needs. Are you really hungry or your brain is playing tricks on you? If you’re hungry an hour after a meal, your stomach isn’t empty – it means that the brain needs you to eat because your blood sugar levels are low. Instead of a whole meal, take some nuts or raisins to lift the blood sugar levels and satisfy your hunger.
