It seems that when Kumiko Mori announced that she lost 15 pounds following the "Morning Banana Diet" there was a shortage of bananas in Japan.
In fact it was promoted as the fastest and easiest way to lose weight.
The Morning Banana Diet was designed by Hitoshi Watanabe.
According to banana diet, you are to eat only breakfasts and water at room temperature.
Then you can have whatever you want for lunch and dinner as long as you don't eat anything 8 pm.
Moreover you are not suppose to have any alcohol, ice cream, dairy products or beverage after dinner.
One of the popular features of this diet is the non emphasis on exercise.
How does it Work It seems that bananas have certain enzymes that fasten digestion and elimination that leads to rapid weight loss.
Another theory that is propagated is that bananas has a type of fiber that makes you full and accelerates fat burning.
Limitations However, eating whatever you like for lunch or dinner is not the right recipe for shedding weight.
Not eating after 8 pm is definitely good advice, however it has nothing to do with losing weight.
It just depends on the number of calories you consume at dinner in comparison to the number of calories you burn.
It is certainly not the diet that you will be looking forward to everyday.
Lack of emphasis on exercise almost devalues the importance of physical activity in controlling your weight.
A combination of diet and exercise is the ideal bet for weight loss.
