50 kcal salad


I have seen a show from BBC Horizon and become inspired. The program was about fasting and how it can affect our bodies. Important to remember here is that the fasting that was shown in the program had positive effects on healthy people who live a little cozy, i.e. eat well and do not exercise at a extreme high level.
Now the idea is that I and Pauline will start a 5:2 diet where we reduce our calorie intake 2 days a week. The idea is that it will improve our blood fats, insulin, IGF-1 and do so that I can continue to eat the sausages I make.
To begin with, I will not try very hard to eat less than 600 calories a day. Is it less than 800 kcal per day, it is better than it was before.
Fresh, newly cut salad
Ingredients, energy content and weight:
  • 100 grams of cucumber -> 14 kcal
  • 50 grams of tomato -> 12 kcal
  • 20 grams of spinach -> 4 kcal
  • 45 grams of carrot -> 20 kcal

A total of about 50 calories and 215 grams of salad. It is possible that the energy content varies so that there are not exactly 50 kcal, but I am not that picky that it will matter.

Ready to eat or be mixed.
The idea of ​​this salad is to give me something to work from. Because I like vegetables I will be able to eat it as it is a couple of times, but it will not last for long. It will become tedious, so I must add and vary the composition during the low calorie days.
Mixed salad.
