Dukan Diet
The Dukan Diet is a high-protein, low-carbohydrate weight-loss plan divided into four phases. It emphasizes consuming lean meats, fish, eggs, and non-starchy vegetables while limiting carbs, processed foods, and fats. The initial phase focuses on rapid weight loss through pure protein intake. Subsequent phases gradually reintroduce vegetables, some carbs, and eventually, maintenance to sustain weight loss. The diet aims to promote fat loss while preserving muscle, relying on protein's satiating effect and metabolic boost. It requires strict adherence and careful planning to ensure nutritional balance and success.
