What is Diet Quito?
It is a fat-based versus carbohydrate intake regimen. Reducing carbohydrate intake and replacing it with fat will help further burn.

The idea in this diet is to reduce carbohydrates by a large amount, so that not less than 50 g per day,

Thus, the body begins to use fat and protein to get the energy it needs, burning more fat stored, and thus the body loses a large proportion of fat.

But it is not recommended to follow this diet only under medical supervision and for short periods so as not to affect health negatively

Allowed and prohibited in the Quito diet
Healthy fats are red meat, poultry, eggs, and fish. The system includes butter and cheese varieties but in limited proportions, in addition to low-carb vegetables such as leafy vegetables such as cabbage and spinach.

You can also eat nuts and fruits and add olive or coconut oil to the food.

In contrast, the system is based on not eating rice, pasta, wheat, corn, potatoes, sugars such as candy, soft drinks, unnatural juices, dried and canned fruits, ice cream, and others.

How to follow the Quito diet?
There is no calculation and quantity of food that a person eats during the Quito system.

It is preferable to divide foods into three meals, so that each meal varies and contains the allowed nutrients.

With this system you should drink 8 glasses of water a day, and you can also drink tea and coffee, but without adding sugar to them.

Damage to Diet Quito
Like any dieting system, there are a number of damages to those who follow this system, namely:

Feeling tired: especially in the first period of following the system, because the body tries to adapt to the alternative energy source, where it relies on fat instead of carbohydrates, so it is recommended to drink plenty of water to overcome the feeling of fatigue.
Hunger quickly: Because foods that contain fiber and refrain from eating are able to fill hunger and a sense of satiety for a longer time, and therefore it is recommended to eat leafy vegetables allowed in the system to curb appetite as long as possible.

Some health problems: As a result of excessive intake of fat, can increase the chances of heart disease, and to avoid this, we must balance the allowable foods we eat throughout the day, so that the proportion of fat on proteins or other nutrients in the three meals.
Vegetables should be eaten mainly at every meal in order to reduce the amount of fat.
