AESTHETIC MEDICINE


TREATMENT: NUTRITIONAL THERAPY

To lose weight in a very effective and recover physical fitness is definitely not enough to lose weight. You have to lose excess fat but keeping muscle tone and lean body mass.

The classic diets involve a slow weight loss and especially a lowering of basal metabolism, often compromising the patient's muscle mass.

They are also very difficult to follow because you need to weigh all foods and become difficult to manage for those who often is forced to eat outside the home.

Thanks to Pentadiet method, which takes up the idea developed of what has already been proposed in 1973 in the United States by Prof. GL Blackburn, a professor at the school of medicine at Harvard University and a researcher at MIT, you can lose weight easily, preserving the mass muscle.

The Pentadiet method is based essentially on the principle that a reduction of carbohydrates and lipids, associated to the almost exclusive consumption of high biological value protein, even better if of amino acids, allows to reduce the mass of adipose tissue thanks to the new balance Insulin - Glucagon which is to establish the body.

This method, already spread widely in France from the mid-80s and recommended has been almost exclusively used by thousands of physicians, for the treatment of obesity, but can also be used for the treatment of overweight and adiposity (cellulitis, waistline).

About the company New Penta is that it has developed a program on nutrition amino acid bases that properly managed by the doctor , you can easily bring people to a just and balanced nutrition.

For this New Penta research and is continually developing new health foods , flavor and different format : soups , omelettes , creams , puddings , hot and cold drinks , cakes , bars etc. to meet the wishes of patients with pleasing flavors and manageable preparations that help to not make them feel distant from the usual foods . Proteins are one of our main sources of energy , and are equally important for their role in the construction of cells and in maintaining metabolic balance . Their contribution is essential to :

blood and lymph construction
Maintenance of tissues and organs
Transport of molecules in the blood
Functioning of the digestive, endocrine, muscular, immune, sensory

Penta The method is based on a scheme comprising five successive steps. The first step of Pentadiet Protocol provides for the consumption of biological high-quality protein to protect lean body mass, and induce the body to use as energy source the excess fats. In a few days you can get a significant weight loss and the formation of ketone bodies. These bodies take away the feeling of hunger and have a psicotonico effect (antidepressants, euphoric). This step can last from 10 to 20 days; time taken to process important in weight excess and for those who need to lose weight fast. During this phase the intake of vegetables is necessary in order to vary the power and improve intestinal function and specific supplements for the functioning of the metabolism.

2nd Step replaces a main meal with a plate of animal protein instead of PROTILIGNE Preparation. In addition to being next to 1 °, it may also be used as a first approach with those patients not available and / or with those which for their sociability may not strictly follow the power amino acid. In this phase, the slimming is a bit 'slower, because, if the restriction of carbohydrates is just as close, caloric intake is a bit' higher. In the third step we proceed to a progressive reintroduction of carbohydrates in the diet plan further increasing the conviviality of the meals. The more intense and rapid was the loss of fat mass in the previous phases, especially as this should be prolonged. The progressive reintroduction of carbohydrates facilitates the stabilization of weight loss and opens the door to a more controlled nutrition, and healthier. The patient will be oriented towards new eating habits both quantitative and qualitative: a balanced breakfast, a poor snack in importing sugar, finally, a lunch and a light dinner that will not take uncontrolled weight. Once effectively lost their overweight thanks to the earlier stages, the 4th step allows not regain fat mass and further towards a balanced that power needed to prevent metabolic diseases related to obesity. The 4th step is critical to the understanding and the final evaluation by the physician of the actual clinical and behavioral changes made by the patient. All these elements are essential for planning a meal plan as to be easily manageable in everyday life. In this step you also learn to deal with transgressions: besides being inevitable, they are also a good time because "trespassing is beautiful", but if the transgression becomes a 'habit you end up depriving a pleasure. They are part of our way of life and must be defused and not colpevolizzate. When necessary, you can always take some of the 2nd day and 1st Step to offset the excesses made. 5th Step is the culmination of Pentadiet program with the return to common daily diet but will be changed by the nutritional re-education that the patient has received during its targeted slimming path and redistribution of body mass. In this phase, a physical activity program is essential for maintaining physical efficiency.
