21 pounds in 21 days….it might sound great, but is it healthy??
Steve Harvey is following a liquid detox diet called the Martha’s Vineyard Diet which is outlined in the book Lose 21 Pounds in 21 Days.
Steve says he is feeling healthy even though he has not chewed food in 11 days!
This diet consists of drinking juices and eating vegetable broths. Protein and enzyme supplements are suggested to be taken too.
He may feel good, however nutritionists frown on crash diets.
This may be a quick fix, which is ok for some, however once you start eating real food again, you will gain all the weight back because your metabolism has slowed down so much.
Another problem, is that diets that don’t include solid food don’t provide the feeling of fullness, so they are hard to stick to.
These liquid diets deprive you of so much, why would you want to do this?!
