The 17 Day
Diet - My Review
The 17 Day Diet reached public
consciousness in November of 2010 when its author, Dr. Mike
Moreno, made a guest appearance in one of the famous TV talk
shows to discuss the diet. It has since become a sensation, and
continues to be featured or mentioned in many other TV shows,
and health and fitness magazines.
What is The 17
Day Diet: The Principle
Dr. Mike came up with the
17
Day Diet in his belief of the importance of weight control as a
basic component of having a long and healthy life. Based on his
findings, all those on a weight loss regimen inevitably get to a
plateau point, where any amount of exercise or diet produces no
results. His 17 Day Diet is based on the principle of “confusing
the body” that would give rapid but safe, and long-lasting
results. By keeping the body guessing on the amount of calorie
intake, Dr. Mike believes, the body’s metabolism could be
sustained at a high level.
The Four Stages of
17 Day Diet
It is called the 17 Day Diet
because it is composed of four different stages, each of which
lasts seventeen days.
The
first stage is called “accelerate”
because it is during this stage that rapid weight loss is
initiated through the clearing of the sugars in the blood, which
in turn leads to a healthy digestive system, better fat burning
capabilities, and minimized storing of fats.
The second stage is the
activate stage. The so-called “plateauing” is avoided by
the increase and decrease in the consumption of calories, which
forces the metabolism to continuously reset and continue to burn
more fats.
The next stage is called “achieve
stage”
which promotes good eating habits that are to be followed and
maintained throughout one’s entire lifetime.
Finally, there is the
arrive
stage, wherein a person constantly cycles through the
“accelerate”, the “activate”, and the “achieve” stages.
