Have you heard about the Natman slimming diet which promises you’ll shed 4 kilos in 4 days? Find out how this super-fast diet works, our view on its efficacy and some typical recipes.
The Natman diet is an express slimming method which promises weight loss of 4 kilos in just 4 days.
Also known as the “stewardess diet” (in reference to flight attendants apparently fasting on the days they are not flying), it is particularly drastic: you are only allowed to eat lean protein, green vegetables and low-sugar fruit.
As with any low-calorie diet, the idea is to limit your daily energy intake so that you burn more calories than you ingest.
These are the main elements:
Though very strict, the Natman diet offers several advantages:
There are more negative aspects of the ‘stewardess’ diet than positive ones:
To summarise, this very low-calorie diet is effective for losing weight quickly, but it does not enable you to maintain the new, lower weight over the long term: healthy, sustainable weight loss is normally achieved over a much longer period (at a rate of 500g-1kg per week) (1). In addition, it does not encourage good eating habits or participation in regular exercise, both of which are essential in order to avoid regaining all the weight lost.
It is most suitable for healthy people who need to lose weight quickly, even if the results will show up more on the scales than in the mirror. It should not be followed by obese individuals and is not recommended for older people.

Gradually increasing your level of physical activity is the best way of losing weight healthily.
Not only do you increase the amount of energy you expend through exercising, but you also help to build muscle mass, which takes more energy to maintain than fat mass.
A combination of resistance, endurance and recovery activities is ideal, but the most important thing is to have fun. If you see it as a chore, you’re more likely to give it up quickly and regain the weight lost.
Tip: aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week. Start slowly and increase your activity gradually if you haven’t exercised in a while.
A successful diet is one that results in you adopting better eating habits over the long term:
Finally, whichever weight-loss diet you choose or eating habits you adopt, weight-loss supplements can help.
There are general slimming formulations (such as Weight Loss Formula), and more specific products aimed at combatting water retention (Water Retention Formula) or eliminating fat (such as Advanced Fat Burner), and more specifically, abdominal fat (such as Viscerox).

The h pylori supplement has helped my digestive issues. I was diagnosed with h pylori more than once. Also was hospitalized with h pylori several times. Even after taking prescription meds for this condition I still had ongoing digestive issues. So I decided to give this product a try. It has helped with the bloating and inflammation in my stomach and chest. So I gave it a 4 star rating. It helps to calm the pain in my stomach and also acid reflux pains. It is a good product and I would recommend.
