You are basically starving yourself and that comes with huge health risks.
The main issue with the diet is that it’s being referred to as a 'cleanse' on social media. This language is so misleading as ‘cleanse’ or ‘detox’ are completely meaningless terms. They have a positive feel to them and have a health halo but actually it’s a complete myth. A healthy balanced diet is called a healthy balanced diet because it is healthy and balanced. This is neither. Nutritionist and eating disorder specialists agree that the "water fasting" diet is fundamentally synonymous with starvation. Given such an unhealthy relationship with food, starvation dieters are likely to end up gaining weight in the long run. Everyone knows that. This is because when you deny the body the calories it needs, your metabolism slows in an effort to conserve caloric fuel and may be disturbed despite regaining normal eating habits. Ultimately, these kind of diets will lead to severe nutritional deficiencies and possibly a loss of skeletal muscle. Do whatever you think is good for you, just putting in my opinion.
Read Herbert Shelton, you have been lied too. Watch "What the health?" on amazon or netflix, did you know that the american cancer society is funded by cargill, meat producers, milk producers? The ONLY things we should be eating are plants, PERIOD. This is NOT my opinion, these are facts that the powers that be HIDE from us. I used to count up on protein and carbs and and lift weights and do all that bullshit, it was KILLING me. Eat plants = get HEALTHY, please , please , please, watch that video what the health!
I saw it. Doesnt say to starve and only drink water :)
