The diet resolves around cucumbers – you can eat this incredible vegetable as much as you like and whenever you’re feeling hungry. Cucumbers contain a variety of important nutrients that can clean your body of toxins, boost your metabolism and clean up your intestines. Cucumbers are a powerful diuretic as well that can remove excess water from the body. The vegetable is great for your skin as well, which is why many cosmetic products contain it.
Here’s how the diet plan looks like:
Breakfast: slice 200 gr. of cucumbers and add them to a cup of low-fat yogurt, and eat an apple or a few peach slices if you’re still hungry.
Lunch: for lunch, you’ll need to take a bowl of cucumber salad and a piece of bread. Alternatively, you can prepare the following recipe:
Ingredients
1 cucumber
2 potatoes
300 gr. of fresh fruits
Tea or coffee with no sugar
Instructions
Boil or bake the potatoes and eat them with a piece of wheat bread and sliced cucumbers. For a snack, have some dried fruits or a fruit salad. You can also have a cup of coffee or tea with no sugar.
Here’s another great meal you can have for lunch:
Ingredients
150 gr. of tuna or 2 eggs or 2 150 gr. of white meat
3 slices of whole wheat bread or 2 potatoes
1 cucumber
You can either choose potatoes or bread and eat them with some tuna or cucumber – it’s up to you. If you don’t like the taste of tuna, eat grilled white meat and hard-boiled eggs.
Here’s a few ideas for snacks while on the cucumber diet:
Cucumber shake
