Oat diet in application

All nutrition during a diet on oatmeal consists in its regular use. In the intervals, you can diversify the menu with fruits with a reduced sucrose content, and easily absorbed vegetables. This option is often considered simple, easy to use and preparation.

However, there is a more intense way of losing weight based on oatmeal - you need to alternate oatmeal and crushed oats, and for the base you can use milk and water. It is recommended to eat up to 500 grams of cereals per day and drink at least 1.5 liters of pure natural water.

Oatmeal diet

The difference between oatmeal and bran is that the latter are a solid shell of the grain itself, and the first is the final result of the purification of grain from the husk and the shell. Some unscrupulous manufacturers sometimes sell ordinary husk instead of bran, so you need to pay attention to the appearance and composition. Calorie flakes also differ - in brans it is slightly lower. The famous diet of Ducan allows the use of oat bran at the second stage.

Despite this, the use of bran is contraindicated to people with diseases of the gastrointestinal tract: ulcer, gastritis, stomach disorder, etc.

There are 3 main points that must be adhere to:

1. You should drink as much water or green tea as possible, since bran begins to swell and digest only if there is the right amount of liquid. Otherwise, instead of a positive result, you can get constipation.
2. The norm for daily reception is 3 tbsp. l.  Its excess threatens with weight in the stomach and bloating.
3. It is necessary to take constant breaks in the use of oat bran. They cover the walls of the stomach, which prevents the absorption of fat and sugar, as well as individual useful elements that enter the body with food, so you need to develop the desired dose for themselves.

The bran is filled with water, kefir, low -fat yogurt, milk, and they can supplement the recipes for porridge, soup, baking.

Methods of cooking oatmeal

The process of making porridge for oatmeal diet can be represented in two ways that completely differently reveal their beneficial properties. The taste of the dish may vary, so from time to time you can alternate both methods.

Cooking system:

1. With preliminary soaking, the effect of phytic acid, which is in oatmeal, is reduced to a zero level. It blocks the penetration of useful trace elements into the blood. Oat flakes should be poured in the evening and leave them to swell all night, and in the morning they can already be cooked for several minutes. If you leave the oatmeal to swell during the day, then in this case thermal treatment is no longer needed, and its natural sweetness will become a taste.
2. A distinctive feature of the recipe for oat diet is the presence of beta-glucans and polysaccharides with a long chain in it, which are characterized by anti-inflammatory, healing and immunomodulating effects. Cooking over low heat for half an hour contributes to the disclosure of all useful functions and elements of oatmeal. The readiness of oat porridge for use speaks of its viscous and homogeneous consistency. After that, you need to turn off the gas and let the porridge brew under the closed lid for 5 minutes. Only after that she is completely ready for use. If the whole process of making oatmeal for you is a complex and taking time, then you can use a multicooker with the function of a delayed start as a help. It will help you cook porridge throughout the day.
