The rice slimming method originated from the rice dieting plan of 1939. Participants in this diet summer camp received two to four weeks of treatment, which is a treatment for obesity, diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and kidney disease.

Because of the success of the high-intensity diet plan, registered dietitian Rosa and her cardiologist husband Robert compiled this rice diet and tried it out at home for those in need.

Rice slimming is a natural food with low calorie, high carbohydrate, low salt, low fat, low sugar and low protein. Its initial goal is to treat some chronic diseases.

Note: This method is not suitable for patients with colon resection and renal failure.

The rice diet does not mean that you can only eat rice. Rice is just one of the 30 foods in this slimming plan. Rice diet foods also include whole grains, soybeans, fruits, vegetables, skim dairy products and lean protein. Foods containing high fiber in the diet, such as whole grains, vegetables and fruits, can make people feel full and satisfied.

Rice diet has several processes:

The first stage:

First week

Day 1: Basic rice meal (800 calories, 50 mg salt), two starchy foods and two fruits (breakfast, lunch and dinner).

Next six days: vegetable rice (1000 calories, 300 mg salt)

Breakfast: one starch food, one fruit and one skim dairy product.

Lunch and dinner: three starchy foods, three vegetables and one fruit.

The second stage:

First week

Day 1: Basic rice meal (800 calories, 50 mg salt), two starchy foods and two fruits (breakfast, lunch and dinner).

Next five days: vegetable rice (1000 calories, 300 mg salt)

Breakfast: one starch food, one fruit and one skim dairy product.

Lunch and dinner: three starchy foods, three vegetables and one fruit.

Last day: basic rice with vegetable rice

Breakfast: two starchy foods, three vegetables and one fruit.

Lunch: three starchy foods, three vegetables and one fruit.

Dinner: Three starchy foods, three protein foods (or two dairy products), three vegetables and one fruit.

The third stage:

In the maintenance phase, you burn 200 calories more per week than in the second phase until the end of the weight loss period.

Day 1: Basic rice

Next four days: vegetables and rice

Next two days: basic rice noodles and vegetable rice noodles.

Rice diet can't provide enough calcium and vitamin D for dieters, so dieters should take multivitamins every day.

At the beginning of the rice diet, the daily calorie intake was controlled at 800 calories, and then gradually increased. The daily calorie intake in the maintenance phase is 1200 calories. Experts suggest that if the daily intake of calories is less than 1200 calories, it is likely to cause health problems, and you should not go to extremes.

Those dieters find that they don't eat fried food, coffee, processed food and sugar, but have a natural and healthy diet, so that the whole person is relaxed, migraine is no longer committed, and fibromyalgia disappears.

Initially, a low-salt diet was designed for people with kidney disease to lower blood pressure. A low-salt diet can reduce the water content in the body. The average person absorbs 7000 milligrams of salt every day. In the first stage of diet, only 50 mg of salt is consumed every day, so the body loses water and the appetite becomes smaller.
