At the “approach to summer, many people wish to relieve themselves of a few” too much “kilos. Among the vogue diets, the 1825 diet attracts more and more followers, seduced by its accessibility and its return to fundamentals. But is it balanced? What about its health effects? Julie Boët, dietician-nutritionist, tells us more about it.
The 1825 diet: raw and seasonal products
This somewhat outdated diet advocates a return to local and seasonal food, similar to that adopted at the beginning of the 19th century. Raw and natural foods are thus privileged (vegetables, fresh fruits, legumes, eggs, fish, meat …), while ultra -processed products are put aside. Exit the prepared dishes, sodas and blown cereals, make way for good little simmered dishes!
“The 1825 diet is inspired by the traditional feeding before the industrial era, long before the massive arrival of ultra-transformed products on our plates. The idea is to return to a simple, authentic and nature diet: vegetables and fresh seasonal fruit, legumes, whole grains, as well as eggs, meats or fish from local or responsible sectors. Ultra-transformed-prepared dishes, sugary drinks, refined cereals or industrial snacks-is excluded “, Confirms Julie Boët, dietician-nutritionist.
The expert also reveals to us that the Regime 1825 is based on a daily intake of around 1825 kilocalories, allowing progressive and durable weight loss.
“IThe is therefore part of a global health approach, aimed at reducing chronic inflammation and stabilization of blood sugar. This diet is not based on excessive deprivation, but on balanced food choices, respectful of the body and its needs “, she says, “Although each person – and their needs – differ “.
Thus a consumption of 1825 kilocalories “may not be enough“For sports people, active or suffering from any pathology, recognizes the dietician.
What benefits can we expect from the 1825 regime?
According to her many followers, the 1825 diet would lose weight, without suffering or frustrations. But is this really the case? Here is what our nutrition expert thinks.
“This return to a” real “diet makes it possible to find a natural balance and a better connection to your food sensations. Meals, rich in fiber, essential proteins and micronutrients, become not only more satisfactory, but also more satisfying, which helps to eat in suitable quantities without feeling frustrated. This mode of food also promotes more serene digestion and better management of everyday energy”. recognize Julie Boët.
In terms of weight loss, said diet would also be effective because it combines a moderate calorie intake to a dense nutrient and low glycemic supply. “This makes it possible to create an energy deficit while properly nourishing the organism, which limits cravings and avoids deficiencies”, underlines the specialist.
“In addition, by eliminating the sources of added sugars, bad fats and additives, this diet contributes to reducing chronic inflammation, often linked to an unbalanced and industrial diet. Recommended foods in this context are naturally rich in antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids and beneficial compounds for cell health”, she says.
Another significant advantage: the 1825 diet helps to stabilize blood sugar, thanks to a choice of low glycemic index foods which avoid blood sugar peaks and promote better regulation of insulin, while reducing the consumption of refined or transformed products often too rich in sugar. “All this is beneficial to prevent type 2 diabetes, but also to improve concentration and limit fatigue”, Enfers the nutritionist again.
However, it is essential to emphasize that a food change, even if it seems balanced, should never be undertaken without professional supervision.
“The needs vary from one individual to another, and a poorly adapted diet can lead to imbalances, deficiencies or digestive disorders. For a secure and personalized approach, the accompaniment of a dietician or nutritionist is highly recommended”, concludes the dietician.
