General rules

Summer is the best time to switch to proper and healthy nutrition.
One of the brightest, most effective and juicy is the rainbow diet. The basic principle of nutrition is to eat as many colored fruits, vegetables and berries as possible. That is why the rainbow diet is known by several other names: “colored” or simply “rainbow”. Products of plant origin get their color and color for a reason. Special phytochemicals give a certain color, smell, taste and texture. Each substance has a specific set of nutrients and cannot be replaced by another. For example, blueberries cannot replace raspberries, and peas cannot replace carrots, etc.

Eating on the rainbow diet consists of choosing your daily diet according to the color of the food (orange, blue, purple, white, red, yellow, green in the diet).

Red

Red vegetables, berries and fruits contain large amounts of lycopene and anthocyanin . Lycopene acts as an antioxidant , and anthocyanin is a plant pigment. Red foods are rich in fiber, manganese, vitamin A and ascorbic acid . It has been proven that flavonoids have not only an antioxidant effect, but also an antitumor effect. Red fruits and vegetables remove breakdown products of free radicals from the body, stabilize blood pressure cholesterol levels . For example, rhubarb contains a large amount of calcium and vitamin K , pomegranates contain B vitamins folic acid .

Yellow and orange

Sun products are rich in beta-carotene , which is a form of vitamin A. Additionally, fruits and vegetables of this color can enrich the body with vitamins A and C, which are so necessary for maintaining healthy skin and for the full functioning of the immune system . Bananas are rich in magnesium, iron, calcium, phosphorus and potassium, while corn is rich in starch and Mg.

White

The white color in plant products appears due to the pigment anthoxanthin . White vegetables and fruits have antiviral, antifungal and antimicrobial effects. Additionally, the body is enriched with folic acid, vitamins K and C, and fiber. Soybeans are rich in magnesium, iron, sodium and potassium, and onions and garlic are simply irreplaceable in the fight against colds.

Green

Green fruits and vegetables owe their color to chlorophyll , which is able to repair damaged cells. The “green” arsenal is rich in potassium, calcium, fiber, B vitamins and minerals. Regular consumption of products from this category can improve vision, the condition of the skeletal system and teeth, and normalize the functioning of the immune system. Green foods have been proven to help maintain a healthy heart, fight diabetes and lower cholesterol .

Blue and purple

Plant products from this color range are rich in antioxidants, anthocyanins and flavonoids (resveratrol, lutein, ellatic acid, zeaxanthin).
Additionally, the “blue-violet” group is rich in fiber, manganese, vitamins K and C.

White and brown

Products from these flowers maintain the balance of hormones, promote digestion, lower cholesterol, and strengthen the immune system. They are also rich in minerals and vitamins, which helps keep bones strong. In addition, garlic and onions , which belong to this group, have antibacterial properties. This also includes banana, cauliflower, potatoes, apples, parsnips, parsley root, and daikon.

Authorized Products

Products vary depending on the diet day.

On the first day, you can only eat red foods of both plant and animal origin (raspberries, peppers, strawberries, etc.). On this day, steamed beef, red fish and even dry red wine are allowed.

On the second day, you are allowed to eat all orange-colored foods. Fruits are mainly citrus fruits (grapefruits, oranges and tangerines). Vegetables: carrots, orange peppers. It will be useful to eat a salmon fillet dish on this day.

On the third day you can eat everything yellow. Fruits include yellow apples, plums, and peppers. You can eat potatoes, zucchini and pineapples.

On the fourth day, you can eat everything green: cucumbers, asparagus, seaweed, peppers, spinach, etc.

On the fifth day, the menu will be more dense: white fish, cheese, pasta, egg whites. On this day it is important not to overeat, because... the diet is quite high in calories compared to previous days and the risk of failure is high.

The sixth day is the hungriest day, the “blue” day. During the day you should drink only mineral water. You can eat 1 bunch of blue grapes or a glass of ripe blueberries.

On the seventh day you can eat eggplants, red cabbage, and grapes.

Drinks include water and freshly squeezed juices.

Walking on a Rainbow

What's the point

According to Pyatibrat, this is a nutritional system that allows you to manage your metabolism, restore health and, ultimately, prolong life.

Principles

The author divides most of the products available to the population into 7 groups in accordance with the chemical composition and, as a consequence, the dominant components in them.

Next, he divides these product groups into 3 types according to their frequency and resonance characteristics, and assigns a different color to each.

• Acidic food – red
• Alkaline food – yellow-green
• Carbohydrate food – blue-violet

The full range of all the products we consume, if divided by frequency, is the seven colors of the rainbow, from red to purple, like seven notes. They ultimately create the music that your body “hears.”

Vladimir claims that most people live their entire lives in the most dangerous red color, feed on poison and, as a result, die from this poison, which fills their body to the brim.

And when moving “along the rainbow” from the red color, a person gradually gets rid of viruses, microbes, removes acids, excess water, and cleanses his body even at the cellular level.

results

which the author promises personally make me a little wary. If all of the above sounds very nice, then the following numbers are scary:

• Body water content may drop by up to 30 percent
• body weight is reduced to 15 kg (and this is considered an excellent result!)

True, Vladimir immediately adds that he managed to achieve this in the early 1990s as a result of special experiments, and under current conditions, an ordinary person will not be able to reach such figures without additional measures. Which I guess is not a bad thing, right?

Also, the author writes that, I quote

With maximum action of the system, regeneration of organs occurs (the regrowth of previously lost legs, arms, eyes, teeth and other little things is observed), this will happen when using the “Cradle” program in full, but for many people, similar phenomena can be observed to a small extent even when using a truncated version of the system (such phenomena have been observed repeatedly).

Let me note that the “Cradle” program is part of his Deep Teaching, which describes the process of obtaining, with the help of technology, a certain electro-plasma shirt (outwardly similar to a coffin), which protects a person from harmful influences from the outside.

Within a few days of staying in such a “coffin,” all viruses, harmful bacteria and “biological impurities” leave a person.

All of the above looks, to put it mildly, strange. What do you think? How do you like this method of losing weight, in which your arms and legs grow back?

Tips and contraindications

In case of severe chronic diseases or the use of serious medications, consult a doctor.

Do not drink alcoholic beverages during the diet, including beer. You can make your own cognac or vodka purified with manganese, or alcohol to which you add homemade fruit syrup.

Vegetables, fruits, cereals - Vladimir advises washing all this with a weak solution of manganese (or laundry soap).

Avoid contact with food with bare hands (cook with gloves).

Products by menu stages

The description is presented in order of priority - each color corresponds not only to the danger of a given product for humans, but also to the order of consumption of these food products on a diet. In other words, each color in the menu is a separate stage.

Red color

Mushrooms, yeast, all foods of animal origin (any meat, milk, eggs, butter, fish, seafood).

Orange color

• Any soy products, except cheese (the author believes that it is prepared by fermenting rennet - sheep Trichomonas and their enzymes), and therefore it is harmful.
• Legumes (beans, lentils, beans, peas)
• Nuts (any - walnuts, peanuts, hazelnuts, pine, and sunflower seeds), coke chips (uncolored)
• Corn
• Carbohydrates
• Various porridges (barley, semolina, oats, rice, buckwheat are mentioned)
• Potato
• Vegetable oils (sunflower, corn, soybean, olive).
• Coconut oil
• Homemade fruit and vegetable juices.
• Tea from mint, St. John's wort.
• Mineral, boiled or unboiled water from a mineral spring, spring

Yellow

• Any vegetables
• At the same stage you can still eat vegetable oils
• Berries. Watermelons should be treated with caution; Vladimir is concerned about the high content of harmful substances in them - nitrates.
• Homemade fruit and vegetable juices and mint tea are also included in this step.
• Mineral, boiled water and water from a source, as in the previous stage.

In general, the guru advises silvering chilled water at any stage for disinfection. If there is no thirst, then water is not needed, says Pyatibrat.

Green color

• Citrus fruits (tangerines, oranges, grapefruits), feijoa, bananas, kiwi.
• Fruits: cherries, cherries, plums, grapes, apples, pears, apricots.
• Homemade fruit and vegetable juices, mint tea, mineral, boiled and silvered water are also included in this stage.

Blue

Dried dried fruits - bananas, figs, dates, dried apricots (it is advisable to eat all these products only in the first half of the “blue” cycle). Next, you should leave only the raisins (they have few microbes, says Pyatibrat, and they are more suitable in terms of their characteristics).

St. John's wort and mint tea, mineral, boiled and silvered water. Drink water only if you want.

Blue color

• Honey and well-purified medical alcohol (2 tsp per day). If you don't want to, you don't have to drink.
• Boiled and silver water.

Purple

• Glucose powder
• Boiled and silvered water.

Building a diet

The entire diet takes from one to one and a half months.

You should move from stage to stage gradually. Everyone determines the moment of transition for themselves.

The main indicator that the time has come is your urine. The author advises collecting it in a jar and looking at the color.

It is best to have two of these jars on hand at once - one contains urine from the previous test for comparison, the other is filled. This makes it easier to notice changes in color, consistency and smell.

During the Pentebrate diet, the body is cleansed, and accordingly, the urine gradually changes its color - from normal to cloudy, dark, with a pungent odor, large sediment, and then, within a week, it becomes lighter again. This is a signal that it is time to move on to the next stage.

If such radical changes do not occur, then you begin the next stage after about 5 days - perhaps your body is in such poor condition that you need to switch to a different color in order to force it to work on cleansing and losing weight.

To achieve a good result, there is no need to reach the very last stage. Usually, people limit themselves to stage 5-6, after which they exit the diet in the reverse order.

The duration of the exit is not important, but it is better to eat 1-2 days during each cycle. There is also no need to go all the way back to red, just bring back some of the products from there.

So what happens? To be honest, it’s difficult to say anything specific. Vladimir's advice on organizing nutrition seems reasonable to some extent, and reviews on the Internet indicate that people actually lose weight this way and achieve quite tangible results.

You be the judge, my dear readers, but I am only offering you the basic postulates:

Fully or partially limited products

Fast food and all high-calorie dishes (fatty, fried, etc.) are absolutely prohibited. On the “red day”, the consumption of dry red wine is allowed (no more than 1 glass). The use of spices and salt when preparing dishes is prohibited. Sugar is prohibited. The last meal should be 4 hours before going to bed.

Table of prohibited products

Menu (Meal Schedule)

red day

orange day

Yellow day

Green Day

White Day

Blue day

• a bunch of blue grapes or a glass of blueberries;
• mineral water.

Purple day

Blue and purple

The blue-violet group includes blueberries, huckleberries, blackberries, plums, purple cabbage, eggplant, grapes, figs, onions (red-purple), beets, purple potatoes, some greens (purple kale, basil), asparagus, broccolini, cauliflower purple cabbage. All these products contain polyphenols and bioflavonoids. They increase the body's resistance to adverse environmental influences, strengthen blood vessels, reduce emotional excitability, improve sleep, mood, memory (they are an excellent prevention of Alzheimer's disease), and also improve muscle tone.

Since polyphenols are not destroyed by heating, these vegetables can be cooked for quite a long time. Anthocyanidins contained in purple foods affect the functioning of the heart muscle, cells, skin function, digestive organs and brain activity.

Advice and comments from nutritionists

Many nutritionists recommend introducing white foods into your diet, regardless of whether you are on a diet or not. These include: mushrooms, garlic, cabbage, white radishes, onions, radishes, etc. “White” foods are rich in phytochemical compounds that can not only lower blood pressure , but also remove “bad” cholesterol from the body. Most reputable weight loss experts support this diet. It is recommended to eat 5 servings of vegetables or fruits daily to improve your figure and replenish it with vitamins and minerals.

Quitting the diet

Getting out of any color diet is not difficult. It is enough to continue to eat the same foods, but in a mixed composition - according to a multi-colored menu. At the same time, the calorie content of the diet should be increased gradually, especially if it was significantly underestimated. The duration of this period should correspond to the duration of the weight loss itself.

If a method was used that included a fasting day, then, in accordance with the recommended scheme, it should be the last. In this case, you should approach the exit differently - add another day, preferably a protein one. After a protein day, food can also be multi-colored.

Reviews of the colored diet and its results

Reviews from those who have lost weight are mostly positive: the diet really works, but the preservation of the achieved result depends entirely on the correct exit from the diet. Among the minuses, one can note the present feeling of hunger, bowel irregularities, increased gas formation due to the abundant presence of fruits and vegetables. During the diet, the condition of the facial skin improves, because... Plant-based products are rich in fiber, which, like a brush, cleanses the intestines, ridding the body of stagnant toxins and waste.
