Nut And Muesli Diet

Nut And Muesli Diet
Average rating: 3 out of 5 star rating

What is it?

Slimmers normally avoid nuts like the plague as they're so high in calories. But, eaten in the right way, they could be your best friend when it comes to battling the bulge, according to natural health expert Michael van Straten. He has devised this week-long diet which uses nuts and muesli to help you lose up to half a stone while still providing your body with everything it needs.

How does it work?

Nuts are a super-rich source of mono-unsaturated fatty acids that will help keep your heart healthy. They also contain protein and vitamin E to help make your skin glow.
Most nuts, but especially peanuts, have what is called a low glycaemic index (GI). This means they are broken down into sugars very slowly giving you a steady stream of energy.
The muesli will keep you feeling fuller for longer and so help you avoid dangerous cravings for sweet things. It will also give you protein, vitamin C and loads of B vitamins to feed your nervous system.
