The fruit diet promises to lose weight quickly, between 4 and 9 kg in 3 days, using fruits and vegetables, preferably raw.
It also favors the
detoxification process, which accelerates even more weight loss.
According to the
author of this diet, Jay Robb, which should be done for only three days in a
row, the only physical activity recommended is a maximum of 20 minutes of light
walking per day.
One should not drink
coffee or black tea on these days, only water, about 12 glasses a day with
lemon.
However, for this diet
to increase fat burning and cause quick weight loss, it is essential to eat
foods rich in protein such as soy milk, grilled chicken breast, white cheese,
boiled egg, or protein powder to put in the soup or juice, for example.
And that is why this
diet is also known as a fruit and protein diet.
Another fundamental
point for the fruit diet to work is that vegetables are organic or biological,
free of pesticides so that they help eliminate the toxins accumulated and
detoxify the body.
Besides slimming, it
also improves the skin, circulation, and functioning of the intestine.
