Juice Fasting for 30 days?
Anyone ever try it? Four of my friends have done it and lost about 30lbs each. But for some reason I am not sold on it. Any help?

I have a friend that lost 30lbs in three weeks on the "PH Miracle" diet, which is alkaline in nature so it does not have the negative side effects. The first 3 weeks of this diet is all soups and shakes with no fruit or meat. |

Why not just go on a high protien low carb diet that is much better
or start counting calories that'll do the trick too |

You are basically starving yourself. Of course it will make you lose weight, but I bet alot of that will be muscle mass as well.

Starvation is the second most effective means to lose weight after amputation.

Common temporary side effects include headaches, tiredness, hypoglycemia, constipation, acne, increased body odor, and bad breath.
Other side effects can include fainting, dizziness, low blood pressure, heart arrhythmias, weight loss, hunger, vomiting, diarrhea, and kidney problems. If these side effects occur, there is a worsening of symptoms, or new symptoms appear, the fast should be discontinued and it should prompt an immediate visit to a qualified health professional. Another possible side effect is diarrhea, which can lead to dehydration and electrolyte loss. If continued for a longer time, fasting can lead to nutrient deficiencies, particularly protein and calcium deficiency. http://altmedicine.about.com/od/deto...ce_fasting.htm

It's a monumentally bad idea. Not only will a large portion of any weight loss be from lean tissue instead of fat, but very low calorie diets put your body into fat storage mode. The minute you go back to eating normally, you'll regain the lost fat and then some. You won't regain the lean tissue as quickly (or at all), leaving you actually fatter than before, even if you might weigh a little less.

Also, the constant insulin spiking isn't too great for you, either. |
