Summary

The scientific literature shows a quantitative relationship between diet combined with physical activity as a long term weight reduction modality and an important factor in weight maintenance.

Primary assumption - the 14/21 diet will have an impact on BMI values, and their long-term maintenance.

Secondary assumption - the 14/21 diet will have a positive impact on anthropomorphic and biochemical markers, on blood pressure, resting heart rate, RMR, and life quality.

Conditions

  • Overweight: 25 <BMI <30

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

14/21 diet

Diet program is divided into 3 periods: 1. Low carb diet for 14 days; 2. Low carb and regular diet in alternating days for 21 days; 3. Individual carbohydrate-rich diet for 21 days. The diet consists of a free choice of food ingredients from a detailed list of foods in each category (proteins, carbohydrates, vegetables, fat etc.). The participants are free to choose the types of food as long as they are within the specified allowance (quantity) for each food group.
