The high-protein diet method

If you're reading this page, it's probably because you want to lose weight and you're looking for information about the high-protein diet. You've come to the right place!

What is a high-protein diet, how does a protein diet work, what weight loss can be expected with a high-protein diet, who can follow this diet to lose weight... We tell you everything!

The high-protein diet has existed for many years! Low-calorie diets were popularized by Dr. Robert Atkins in the 1960s. Prof. Blackburn from Harvard University was inspired by this in 1970 to create a high-protein diet, building on the foundations of the low-calorie diet. The high-protein diet has since been followed by millions of people and is recommended by numerous doctors.

A high-protein diet is a weight loss diet that involves consuming a large amount of proteins. The consumption of carbohydrates and fats is very limited, making it a low-calorie diet (few calories are provided to your body).

The high-protein diet allows targeting weight loss on fat mass only. Proteins help to protect muscle mass during weight loss. To consume enough proteins, your diet will partly consist of high-protein sachets. Cétofine 21 high-protein sachets contain proteins with high biological value. Thus, your body can fully assimilate them.

To summarize, the high-protein diet allows you to lose weight quickly thanks to:

• The reduction of your caloric intake (carbohydrates, fats) = targeted weight loss on fat mass only
• The increase in your daily protein intake = preserving muscle mass

By excluding carbohydrates and lipids from the diet, the metabolism is forced to mobilize its fat reserves to obtain the energy necessary for its functioning.

Simply put, your body fat will serve as an energy resource for your body. This is what we call the state of ketosis. To enter ketosis, you must consume less than 30 grams of carbohydrates per day.

This metabolic change leads to rapid and effective weight loss from your body fat.

This rapid weight loss occurs during Phase 1 of the protein diet, the strict protein diet. To enter ketosis and lose weight quickly, you will consume only high-protein sachets rich in amino acids along with allowed vegetables.

The Cetofine 21 program is based on a structured method with 4 progressive phases, designed to ensure effective weight loss without the yo-yo effect.

The high-protein diet is based on the following principle: consuming a lot of protein and reducing the intake of carbohydrates and fats.

You will replace many foods in your diet with high-protein meal substitutes: high-protein sachets.

You will find on our website many high-protein recipes that are both delicious and low in calories: various cream soups and broths, omelets with different flavors, drinks, gourmet desserts, chocolate-flavored recipes, and a wide selection of savory recipes (cheese soufflé, vegetable stuffing, shepherd's pie, chili con carne,...). Plenty of options to vary your meals!

During Phase 1, you can accompany these high-protein sachets with vegetables. Not all are allowed as some contain too many carbohydrates. You will receive a guide with your first order containing the list of vegetables lowest in carbohydrates. Sugar-free beverages are allowed at any time.

To give you a more precise idea, here is the program for a typical day in Phase 1:

To follow Level 1 of the protein diet, we recommend women order 5 boxes per week: 3 sweet boxes and 2 savory boxes. For men, we recommend ordering 6 boxes per week: 4 sweet boxes and 2 savory boxes.

Starting from Phase 2, you can return to a more traditional meal composed of dietary proteins (animal or dairy proteins) and allowed vegetables.

Starting from Phase 3, you can consume a balanced breakfast with dairy products, bread and fruits.

Starting from Phase 4, you will consume starches again (rice, pasta, bread), in limited quantities.

When you place an order on our site, we provide you with a complete guide that specifies what to eat, when, and in what quantity. You will no longer need to ask questions, you will simply need to follow the guide.

The high-protein diet adapts to all types of weight loss, from the smallest (minimum 2 kilos or 4.4 pounds), to the most significant (losing 30 kilos or 66 pounds). If you wish to lose more than 30 kilos (66 pounds), we invite you to contact us so that we can provide you with a tailored weight loss program.

The high-protein diet consists of 4 stages:

• It is during the first two stages that the most significant weight loss periods are concentrated. The initial stages allow you to lose about 2 kilos (4.4 pounds) per week.

• During the last two stages, you will gradually reintroduce all food groups and stabilize your weight loss. You will lose about 0.5 kilo (1.1 pounds) per week.

The duration of the high-protein diet adapts to your weight loss goal. In the table below, you will find the average duration of a high-protein diet according to different weight loss objectives.

Option 1: you complete the 4 stages of the protein diet, including Stage 1, the strict protein diet.
Stage 1 is the strictest stage of the diet, but it will allow you to lose weight more quickly.

Option 2: you start the protein diet with Level 2, the moderate protein diet.
This level is less strict but weight loss will take longer since you will keep one real meal composed of dietary proteins.

You also have the option to order one of our weight loss packs with a pre-defined duration: the -3 kg (6.6 lbs) in 2 weeks pack, the -6 kg (13.2 lbs) in 1 month pack, and the -10 kg (22 lbs) in 1.5 months pack. Each pack contains the number of high-protein sachets you need to complete your high-protein diet.

Our 4-phase method guarantees you effective weight loss but above all permanent weight loss!

At Cétofine 21, we are committed to helping you maintain your weight loss to avoid the famous yo-yo effect. This is why we have developed our high-protein diet method to include a transition phase and a stabilization phase.

It is essential to complete these two phases if you do not wish to waste all your efforts and regain all those lost pounds. These phases allow you to gradually return to a balanced diet and better eating habits. Your metabolism will adapt gently, without yo-yo effect.

As a specialist in medical dietetics, our goal is to provide you with all the keys to regain a balanced diet and a healthier lifestyle following the high-protein diet!

If you are following a high-protein diet to lose weight, you will need to replace many foods with protein-rich substitutes: high-protein sachets. You will understand that it is crucial to use quality high-protein sachets to avoid any nutritional deficiencies during the diet.

During phase 1, it is important to note that, with the exception of vegetables, high-protein sachets will be the only source of nutrition, thus emphasizing the importance of choosing quality products.

All the high-protein sachets offered by our laboratory meet three quality guarantees:

• Nutritional quality: all our high-protein sachets have a chemical index higher than 100. Thus, your body will have all the essential amino acids necessary for the proper functioning of your metabolism during your high-protein diet.

• The protein quantity: our high-protein sachets contain an average of 18 grams of protein. That's about 20% more protein than the sachets you'll find in stores, which are typically dosed at an average of 15 grams of protein.

• Taste quality: Since you will be consuming many high-protein sachets, it's important that you find them tasty!

It is crucial to emphasize that protein consumption is effective only if it comes from high-quality protein-rich products, ensuring energy, health, and vitality!
