How To Improve The Cabbage Soup Diet Plan
The principle of the popular and spectacular Cabbage Soup Diet combines the cabbage soup, known for their slimming qualities and fruits, vegetables, meat, sometimes in unlimited quantities but not at the same time neither the same day.
Cabbage is known for having weight loss stimulating properties, by regulating the metabolism of sugar and fat and is rich in vitamin C, potassium and fiber. Fibers are indispensable to a good intestinal transit.
Peppers, tomatoes, carrots, celery, onions provide vitamins A & C, potassium, beta carotene, fiber and protein.
Improving the taste of this soup is allowed and can be done by replacing tomatoes and/or peppers by zucchini and the white cabbage by a green one.
