How does the Oat Diet work?

There are several variants of the Oat Diet. They differ in terms of duration, purpose, intensity, and the range of products allowed in association with oats. Let’s take a closer look:

One-Day Diet

The One-Day Oat Diet involves the exclusive consumption of oat flour over a 24-hour period. All other foods are prohibited, except for skimmed milk or plant-based drinks such as soy milk, coconut milk, etc. How it works

• Mix 2 litres of skimmed milk or plant-based drink with 8 tablespoons of oat flakes.
• Divide the mixture into 6 portions.
• Consume one portion every 2-3 hours.

Results The purpose of the One-Day Oat Diet is not weight loss, but rather to detoxify the body from toxins, strengthen the organs, and regenerate the liver and tissues. It is a sort of relaxation day for the body. You might notice a slight reduction in weight after one day, but it will mainly be water, not fat tissue. Some people follow this type of diet once a week, but in general, it is recommended to follow it once every 2 months or so.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css="%7B%22default%22%3A%7B%22padding-left%22%3A%220%22%2C%22padding-right%22%3A%220%22%7D%7D"][vc_column][vc_column_text]

The Two-Week Diet

In the Two-Week Oat Diet, you should eat almost exclusively oats or oat flour with water or skimmed milk and avoid most other foods. How it works This is a very strict low-calorie diet (you should never go below 1200 calories per day, and in any case, it is advisable to consult a doctor and/or nutritionist). In addition to oat flour, dietary foods such as are allowed:

• 1 portion of lean cooked ham
• 1 small portion of low-fat yogurt
• 1 portion of vegetables
• 1 egg
• 1 fruit
• 1 portion of ricotta
• ...etc.

Results The Two-Week Oat Diet aims for weight loss. It is a strict diet, not always easy to follow, and poorly balanced. It is possible to lose several kilos over two weeks, but the yo-yo effect is just around the corner.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css="%7B%22default%22%3A%7B%22padding-left%22%3A%220%22%2C%22padding-right%22%3A%220%22%7D%7D"][vc_column][vc_column_text]

The Long-Term Diet

And here is the long-term variant of the oat-based diet. It is a diet suitable for those who wish to lose weight while improving their physical well-being with a healthy and balanced diet. It is not a difficult or drastic diet to follow; it contains all the nutrients we need and promises to avoid the side effects of other more drastic diets. On the contrary, it promises to improve metabolism and digestion, have a detoxifying effect, and at the same time promote the reduction of fat tissue. How it works The duration of this diet varies from 4 to a maximum of 8 weeks. It is divided into two phases. The first phase is more restrictive but short, lasting only a few days (at most a week). The second phase is lighter and can last from 2 to 7 weeks. First Phase In the first phase, you should consume about 1300-1400 kcal per day. Oats should be consumed every day (preferably 2-3 times a day) along with water, milk, plant-based drinks, or plain yogurt. Additionally, the daily menu should include foods such as:

• Cooked and/or raw vegetables
• Salads with light dressings
• Lean meats such as chicken breast or turkey, skinless chicken thighs, pork tenderloin
• Lean fish
• Low-fat dairy products
• Low-sugar seasonal fruit

Oats have a strong satiating power, stabilise blood sugar levels, and help reduce hunger. For this reason, especially during the first phase, it is recommended to associate oats with every meal. Second Phase After 5-7 days, we will have completed the first phase of the diet and can move on to the second. In this phase, about 1500 kcal per day are allowed, and at least 250 g of oats must be consumed. The range of allowed foods expands, and in addition to those from the first phase, it also includes:

• Eggs
• Dried fruit
• Legumes
• Oily seeds
• Lean cold cuts
• Brown rice
• Parmesan cheese
• Wholemeal bread

Prohibited foods in both phases

• Fatty meats
• Fatty cold cuts
• Butter
• Mayonnaise and other sauces
• Cheeses (except for low-fat cheeses and parmesan)
• Fast food
• Non-wholemeal pasta
• White bread
• Potatoes
• Sugary drinks
• Alcoholic beverages

Results It is a diet that can be followed for several weeks without too much difficulty. You can lose between 1 to 3 kilograms a week. During this time, you have the opportunity to learn how to prepare new dishes with healthy ingredients. This, when combined with regular physical activity, promotes the adoption of a healthy and conscious lifestyle.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row content_placement="middle" gap="10px"

What are the benefits of Oats?

Oats help us lose excess weight and maintain our ideal weight. Their high satiety power reduces the desire for unhealthy snacks and helps us control our caloric intake throughout the day. The high fibre content in oats promotes intestinal activity and the elimination of toxins. It also contributes to the development of a healthy gut flora. Thanks to the dietary fibre, oatmeal is extremely beneficial for our digestive system. It stimulates intestinal motility and promotes the elimination of deposits and toxins, thus achieving effective detoxification of the body. It also contributes to the development of a healthy bacterial flora in the gut. It has protective properties as well. It produces mucus, which on one hand protects against harmful influences and on the other combats irritation of the mucous membranes of the gastrointestinal tract. Oatmeal is also a proven way to get rid of bothersome disorders such as constipation, bloating, hyperacidity, heartburn, and indigestion. Thanks to its versatility in the kitchen, oats and oatmeal are excellent raw materials for preparing healthy and dietetic dishes. The beta-glucans contained in oats improve the immune system and help reduce bad cholesterol. Oatmeal is a rich source of antioxidants that act on free radicals, slowing down the process of cellular ageing. They also support the cardiovascular system and reduce the risk of cancers, atherosclerosis, and neurodegenerative diseases. Thanks to its content of unsaturated fatty acids, B vitamins, zinc, and magnesium, oats also have a positive effect on our brain. Concentration improves, mental performance increases, fatigue decreases, and mood improves. The high content of magnesium and potassium supports the cardiovascular, muscular, and nervous systems.

Is the Oat Diet suitable for everyone?

The first type of diet we have seen (one-day diet) should not have significant contraindications. It is a kind of "relax day" that we give to our body to regenerate. It does not aim for weight loss. The second type of diet promises rapid weight loss, but it is very strict and low in nutrients. Discomforts such as weakness, headaches, nausea, etc. may arise. Low-calorie dietary regimens of this kind should be discussed with your doctor and/or nutritionist beforehand. The third variant is particularly suitable for those who want to lose weight in a healthy and consistent manner. One of the biggest risks is that one may quickly become bored due to the rather slow weight loss. One of the greatest advantages of this diet is that it provides the opportunity to learn and gradually get used to eating more mindfully, avoiding the dreaded yo-yo effect.
