“Dieta” is a traditional period of seclusion, during which the dieter comes in contact with 𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 “𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐭”” and its spirit. During this time 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 are followed, so that the dieter consumes no salt, sugar, (also no sugary fruit and vegetables), oil, species, or processed food. The meals are bland and simple.

No distractions, including use of cell phones, reading and sexual activities are allowed. Diet is a time of 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 and 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.
