Results of using onion soup for weight loss. Onion diet for weight loss menu and soup recipe

If you ask nutritionists which first dietary dish is one of the most effective, they will probably recommend onion soup along with celery and tomato. It is prepared simply and quickly, the financial costs are minimal, there are many recipes. And this is not all its advantages: the main thing is that with proper preparation and regular use, it will really help to reduce weight and get rid of body fat.

What is useful

First of all, it is worth understanding why exactly nutritionists offer to cook onion soup for weight loss.

In its fresh form, this plant has too many shortcomings. Yes, it accelerates metabolism and even promotes fat burning, thanks to glucosides and essential oils. However, the process of weight loss is quite long and involves regular consumption of the main product. Fresh onions are not suitable for this purpose, because:

increases pressure and contributes to its sharp jumps;
leads to excessive excitation of the nervous system;
irritates the mucous membranes of the stomach and intestines;
causes flatulence;
has an unpleasant odor that makes the breath stale;
has a bitter taste.

However, after heat treatment, the onion loses these negative properties, which is why nutritionists suggest making soup from it. Why is it useful:

strengthens the immune system;
lowers blood cholesterol;
nourishes the body with vitamins and microelements (it contains a lot of potassium, phosphorus, magnesium and iron);
reduces the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and oncology;
improves sexual activity (both in men and women);
relieves irritability, fatigue and fatigue.

Weight loss on onion soup occurs due to:

improving digestion;
acceleration of metabolic processes;
fat burning;
dulling appetite;
removal of toxic compounds and slags;
diuretic effect, which relieves the tissues of the fluid accumulated in them.

Weight loss results can vary. Some reviews claim that if you eat only this dish, you can lose 5 kg in 3 days, and all 8 in a week. However, it is not easy to achieve such figures: they are possible only if there is an initial large weight, daily physical activity and additional techniques (,) . This requires a lot of willpower and financial investments, and in the end you can earn exhaustion. Therefore, you should count on more modest results: no more than 3 kg per week.

Useful chemistry. Even after heat treatment, most of the useful substances remain in the onion. It contains potassium, iron, calcium, magnesium, cobalt, phosphorus, flavonoids, essential oils, nitrogenous compounds, organic acids, glycosides. Despite the bitterness, sugars are also present: sucrose, glucose, fructose, maltose. And, of course, vitamins: almost the entire group B, A and C.

Harm

Not always losing weight on onion soup ends with the expected results. Its frequent and long-term use can lead to unpleasant side effects:

exacerbation of gastrointestinal diseases, intestinal disorders;
weakness, dizziness;
pressure surges;
flatulence;
muscle spasms;
avitaminosis.

All these consequences are quite understandable. Despite the heat treatment, active substances remain in the onion, which are participants in many chemical and biological processes. If you oversaturate the body with them, a malfunction in the work of some organs and systems is possible. Therefore, doctors and nutritionists warn that contraindications must be observed.

You should refrain from drinking this soup if you:

gastritis, ulcer, high acidity of gastric juice;
hypertension;
anemia;
thyroid pathology;
dystonia;
onion allergy;
avitaminosis;
diseases of the genitourinary system;
diabetes.

Despite the fact that the soup has a milder effect on the body than a fresh onion, it is still advisable to visit a doctor before such an unusual weight loss to consult and avoid complications and side effects.

On a note. One of the undoubted advantages of onion soup is the permission of doctors to use it for weight loss in children, as well as during pregnancy and lactation.

Ways to lose weight

Fasting day

To get rid of 1-1.5 kg in 1 day, boil a liter of soup and eat it in small portions. No food or drink is allowed anymore. Drink plenty of clean water. Move more. During this day, a lot of excess fluid will go away, the body will be cleansed of toxic compounds, and with them you can say goodbye to a small amount of kilograms. But keep in mind that in this case, only a diuretic, not a fat-burning effect will work.

diets

Mono diet for 3 days

You can eat up to 1 liter of onion soup daily. Nothing else can be done from solid food. But drinks are allowed: green tea, herbal decoctions and infusions, jelly, dried fruit compote.

Diets for 7, 10, 14 days

Onion soup must be eaten 2 or 3 times a day as part of the main meals. However, the diet is supplemented with other products. These are unsweetened fruits, vegetables, low-fat dairy drinks, eggs, home-made natural juices without added sugar, feta cheese, hard cheeses. From drinks, green tea with lemon, honey or ginger is welcome.

Diets can be strict, when it is proposed to eat mainly only soup (used to lose 10 kg in 2 weeks), or sparing, when you can eat other diet foods.

A detailed weekly menu for the onion soup diet can be viewed.

Did you know that... Is onion soup with celery and cabbage prescribed as a main dish in the diet for patients suffering from urolithiasis, diabetes, and also during recovery after surgery?

Cooking

To prepare a diet soup, the following varieties of onions are suitable:

yellow small turnip - the most bitter;
yellow large turnip - spicy-sweet;
white turnip - soft, sweet.

But it is better not to use a red (purple) turnip for making soup. It loses both its color and aroma, and many useful properties. Green onions, leeks and shallots are not suitable for weight loss in this capacity.

Be careful with recipes that suggest frying onions in butter or even more so in batter. This will add a lot of extra calories. For comparison: the calorie content of fresh and boiled onions is only 41 kcal, fried in oil is already 251, and cooked in batter is 329. If you use a small amount of the product, this will not harm the dietary properties of the dish. If more than 8 onions are indicated in the recipe, it is better not to fry them.

During frying, add a little sugar - the onion will acquire a pleasant golden hue, which will then be transferred to the broth. So that when grinding it does not hurt your eyes, moisten the knife in cold water.

Slimming

Stick to the menu of the chosen diet, do not allow yourself anything from the list of prohibited foods.
There is soup strictly by the clock, from 3 to 6 times a day.
Serving should not exceed 200 g.
Drink at least 2 liters of water daily.
Go in for sports or at least increase physical activity.
If possible, lead a healthy lifestyle: get enough sleep, do not smoke, spend more time in the fresh air, do not be nervous.

About diet

Thanks to the combination of onions with other products, the diet is varied and does not have time to get bored in a short period of seven days. During this time, you can have time to cook soup according to two or three recipes.

After the selected 7 or 10 days, the exit from the diet should be smooth, you should not immediately arrange a holiday about losing extra pounds with “heavy” snacks and cakes.

During the diet, it is recommended to eat soup for breakfast, lunch and dinner in unlimited quantities. During this time, body fat decreases, which affects the improvement of the organs and the digestive system. In the intervals between meals of the main course, it is worth being content with permitted products, without replacing them and without abusing portions and liquids.

It is advisable to drink from 2 liters of water per day. Simple or mineral is preferred, but it is desirable to minimize the consumption of tea or coffee. It would be ideal to completely abandon these tonic drinks, but if the body is not able to wake up without them, you should not create unnecessary stressful situations for it. The usual cup of tea / coffee is best divided into two or even three servings.
