WHAT IS SIRTFOOD DIET?
What is the Sirtfood diet? The Sirtfood diet takes a scientific approach to fighting weight gain. Two renowned nutritionists working for a private gym in the UK developed the Sirtfood Diet.
The diet is based on ‘sirtfoods’, some special foods that work by activating certain protein chains in the body known as ‘sirtuins’. This is where the name of the diet comes from.
WHAT ARE THESE SIRTUINS?
Sirtuins are a type of protein that acts as an antioxidant agent. According to science, these antioxidant agents,
- slowing down aging
- to accelerate metabolism,
- regulating body inflammation
- Maximizing fat burning
- It acts as preservatives.
- Sirtfoods are foods that activate this protein.
Since the Sirtfood diet consists of foods rich in polyphenol content, it also creates an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effect, that is, while weakening, it purifies your body, supports the regeneration of cells and creates a rejuvenating effect.
WHAT ARE SIRTFOODS?
Studies show that the sirtfood diet can help people lose 3 pounds in less than a week.
As complex and scientific as this diet plan sounds, it’s actually not that hard to do.
The diet encourages you to include some delicious foods alongside the foods you use often in your kitchen.
Some natural plant compounds can increase the level of these proteins in the body, and foods containing them are called “sirtfoods”.
SIRTFOOD FOODS
Some common “sirtfood” foods allowed in this plan include healthy foods like blueberries, oranges, dark chocolate, parsley, turmeric, kale, as well as beverages like red wine.
Other foods allowed in the diet that increase sirtuin activation are as follows;
Coffee, soy, extra virgin olive oil, onion, green tea, Matcha green tea, pepper, red chicory, celery, arugula, dates, parsley, capers, cabbage, turmeric, buckwheat, walnuts, can be counted.
HOW IS THE SIRTFOOD DIET MADE?
The Sirtfood diet consists of 2 phases. The first stage lasts 7 days and allows the body to start losing weight quickly. In the second phase of 14 days, you will continue to lose weight while ensuring that the lost weight is permanent with a more satisfying plan.
- It allows you to lose weight effortlessly.
- The diet allows you to lose up to 10 kilos in 21 days, depending on your weight.
- After fixing the weight you lost, you can apply the diet for the second time within 1 year.
Since the Sirtfood diet is a restrictive diet, it should be interrupted after 21 days and repeated if necessary after continuing with the healthy eating plan for a while. During the break, it is very important to avoid snacks and carbohydrates.
1st stage (7 days);
The Sirtfood diet starts with 3 days to spend on 1000 calories. There are 6 meals a day and consist only of green drinks and sirtfoods.
For the remaining 4 days, the diet is increased to 1500 calories and sirtfood and green drinks are drunk from a total of 4 meals.
2nd stage (14 days);
In the second stage, which is the phase of protecting and maintaining the weight you have lost, there are 3 main meals a day prepared with sirtfood foods and a snack consisting of 1 green drink.
WHAT CAN EAT?
The diet combines sirtfoods and calorie restriction, both of which can trigger the body to produce higher sirtuin levels.

When you decide to do a sirtfood diet, you should only consume meals containing sirtfood.
