Original history
There was a suggestion that Maggi's diet "came" to us from the UK, and Margaret Thatcher herself was its founder. The Prime Minister did not suffer from overweight and did not set a goal to create it. However, there is information that Margaret’s harmony recipe, which she herself speaks, is as follows: a week you have to eat chicken eggs in a total of 28 pieces. No wonder Maggi's diet is also called eggs.
Thatcher posted a two-week ration menu to keep him healthy. This became the prototype of the diet, which got its name "Maggi" - short for Margaret. Who the author of Maggi's "second part" is is unknown. The effectiveness of a low carb diet diet has been confirmed by many people who have lost extra weight with it.
