Morning Banana Diet is a banana or a diet program that was developed by Hitoshi Watanabe, who studied preventive medicine in Tokyo, and his wife who works as a pharmacist, Sumiko.

Since then, this diet gain popularity through word of mouth, TV shows, magazine articles, and books written by Watanabes. All this suggests that dieting is an international obsession, not just a particular country.

But is it possible to lose weight is as easy as eating a banana?
Anything that can be eaten in the banana diet?
Morning banana diet or diet Banana Diet is a very simple program. For breakfast, you just need to eat a banana and water with room temperature.

Then for lunch, dinner, and snack, you can eat anything as long as you do not eat after 8 pm.

The only restrictions: May not eat ice cream, dairy products, alcohol, or desert after dinner. And beverages are allowed to drink at dinner is water with room temperature. One snack at mid-afternoon sweets are allowed.

One of the most popular aspects of this diet program is the lack of emphasis on sports. The participants of this banana diet is recommended to do so only if they want to, and should not be too forced.

How does the work of the banana diet?
Various versions of the Morning Banana Diet gave a different explanation of how a banana can lose weight.

One theory is that certain enzymes present in the banana can speed up the process of digestion and elimination, thereby accelerating weight loss.
Though the human body already has all the necessary enzymes to digest food. It is true that foods containing fiber such as bananas, can pass through the digestive system more quickly and may not be absorbed properly, so it can be a little to save calories.

But the calorie savings may not be enough to revolutionize the diet industry.
Another theory emphasis on resistant starch, fiber type which is expected to trigger a sense of fullness and increase fat burning.
Resistant starch is naturally present in foods that contain carbohydrates, such as bananas, potatoes, grains, and beans, but only when you eat it cold.

In the small intestine, where most of digestion occurs, resistant starch is refusing to digest, and finally into the large intestine.
Research shows that the fiber is not digested may be blocking the conversion of several types of carbohydrates. Even so, the banana contains very little fiber and resistant starch. Bananas contain only 2-4 grams of fiber.

Meanwhile, to be considered as a source of "good," the food must contain from 3.5 to 4.9 fiber per serving.
Bananas, as well as other fruits, has long been a part of the diet and weight loss programs healthy. However, although nutritious, bananas do not have the special ability to lose weight.

The conclusion of the Banana Diet
Eat whatever you like for lunch, dinner, and snacking is not a recipe for weight loss.

To lose weight, you need to be physically active and control calories. And to stay healthy, you should choose healthy foods.
Not eating after 8 pm it is good advice for those who tend to be indiscriminate snacking after dinner.
But make no mistake in responding to, because there is no magic about not eating after 8 pm.

The most important thing is how many calories you eat (no matter when you took it), and how many calories you burn.
And although breakfast can indeed help your metabolism, but there is no magic thing from breakfast with a banana.
Breakfast with a banana and drink the water it was quite easy and certainly is a low-calorie options. Because bananas contain only 72-135 calories and 10 -20 grams of sugar, depending on size.

Although bananas do contain little fiber, but the pure carbohydrate breakfast that usually leads to hunger in a few hours, and hunger is usually the beginning of the destruction of the diet.
Better, combine bananas with a little ice and low-fat yogurt (150 calories and 12 grams of protein) for a delicious and nutritious breakfast in order to stay energized.
To feel full with fewer calories, focus on foods that contain lots of fluids and fiber, such as soup, vegetables, and fruits.

Make sure to include lean protein, such as low-fat yogurt, eggs, or nuts, to help keep you from feeling hungry.
Fad diets that restrict calories can certainly produce weight loss, but almost always followed by a quick rise.
And most experts agree that there is no food that is able to burn fat. If so, then we certainly would never have to deal with the epidemic of obesity.
