Juice Diet
You will lose weight... but at what cost?
BACKGROUND
The name is a little deceiving, but the Juice Diet is really just a fast to help cleanse your body and help jumpstart your metabolism for a long-term diet.
The obvious lack of calories and flushing of your system will quickly drop pounds. Juice Diet followers are warned that this is primarily water weight and once they revert to their old eating habits, the pounds will come back.
PRO
- You will lose weight, but it will be most likely be water.
CON
- Just about everything. It's not healthy to go on a liquid diet for any length of time.
DIET and NUTRITION
For the Juice Diet, you'll replace your food consumption for up to five days with fruit and vegetable juice. Drink only 100 percent juice, with good choices being carrots, pineapple or celery. For best results, freshly prepared or purchased juices are best. You should also drink a lot of water and get plenty of sleep.
EXERCISE
The book addresses exercise, but you would have little energy during this diet period.
CONCLUSION
There are negative effects associated with a Juice Diet and individuals should not commit to making this a long-term practice. While you're ridding your body of many harmful toxins during a Juice Diet, you're also more vulnerable to headaches and decreased energy and strength. Before beginning a Juice Fast, consult your doctor.

I think it's nice that you point out negative side affects- as this diet can not be good for you long term!
cowgirl- it's definitely just something to jumpstart. A juice or fast diet shouldn't be longterm at all. How scary would that be? Youd' starve! And they're right, the first time I did this and then stopped, evertyhing I'd lost came right back. so you definitely need to start another diet quickly.
Yeah I think this would be a better detox or jumpstart diet. I have tried other juice diets and I find them great starters but I can not stay on them long.
I think I'm gonna do this diet. Then after the week, I think i'll slowly jump into eating healthier. I think it'll produce good results :)
I am on the seventh day of a all fresh vege-fruit juice fast. Im planning on doing it for 30 days, and sometimes i get headaches but apart from that it is amazing and celansing. And i probably lost 2-4kgs in 6 days
for gods sake, all you have to do is eat healthier food every day, there is no need to starve yourself by not eating anything, and only drinking juice! these type of diets are to blame for the hundreds and thousands of cases of eating disorders being diagnosed! :(
