The problem of excess weight is always solved comprehensively, and a qualitatively different approach to the formation of a diet plays an important role in this process. Any methods of weight loss are based on the normalization of the daily menu, from which harmful products that provoke a set of extra pounds should be excluded, while healthy and low-calorie products should prevail in the diet.

Of course, speaking about the diet for weight loss, you need to understand that the best option can be selected based on the individual characteristics of each individual's body, and it will be very difficult to do this without consulting a doctor. Nevertheless, the general principles of dietary nutrition for weight loss are quite universal, and following them at least will not cause irreparable harm to the body, and at the same time will lay the foundations for the process of weight loss.

We owe the appearance of salads to the ancient Romans. The first recipe for this vegetable dish consisted of onions, endive (a herbaceous plant of the genus Chicory), honey and olive oil. Over time, the Romans came up with many other recipes that we still use. Fresh vegetables are the richest source of fiber, a variety of vitamins and trace elements. In addition, vegetables are low in calories, which is an extremely important factor for those people who want to lose weight.
Salads are good for a holiday and for every day, they are able to decorate any table. It's enough just to chop tomatoes, cucumbers, greens and put such beauty on the table. Vegetables are bright and colorful, so they look aesthetically pleasing on the table in any combination.

Choose juicy tomatoes, but dense. Soft fruits do not keep their shape well, in the process of slicing and cooking they will spread into a shapeless mass and spoil the appearance of the dish.

The salad will look nice and neat if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (for example, cubes).
