Fruit juice diet?

hi, i would like to know if the 'Fruit Juice Only' diet is good?


is there any risks or short/long term effects?





I mean ONLY fruit juice and water! NO FOOD!

Fruit juice diet?
Of course it isn't good! Fruit juice doesn't even come close to giving you all the nutrition you need to survive. Not enough vitamins, minerals, fuel, fibre, protein, nothing! All you get is fruit sugars and a minimal amount of fibre.





I've never tried fruit juice-only diet, but I hear that it can make you need the bathroom more, and you'll pass mainly liquid. Moreover, the acid level in your stomach might reach unhealthy levels and you may suffer from gastric problems.





If you need to lose weight, for goodness sake DON'T go for fad diets like these. They do more harm than good. The best way to lose weight is have steady, longer-term goals - aim to lose about one or two pounds a week (anything more than that is unhealthy). Cut down sugar and simple carbohydrates and consume more vegetables and fruit (try to have the whole fruit since it gives you fibre as well). Switch to complex carbohydrates. And exercise!





There's no fast-and-easy way to lose weight healthily. If you effect a change in your lifestyle, diet and exercise, you'll lose those (excess) pounds and be healthy, and the weight is more likely to stay off. If you starve yourself with a silly fad diet like this, you'll end up gorging when you finally come off it and put the weight back on.
Reply:Its not a good diet to be on for long but a couple of days is ok if you wanna detox %26amp; feel healthier for a while.


Otherwise I wouldnt recommend it, unless its for medical reasons %26amp; u take all the necessary supplement requirements ie vitamins, minerals, nutrients etc..aswell as being monitored by a health professional or dietitian


Our bodies do need certain nutrients etc..to mend and repair injuries inside us, things we dont see like cells %26amp; things we do see likes cut which require plateletts to clot the blood to stop the bleeding then the white cells get busy repairing from the inside out otherwise u would b a haemophoeliac %26amp; ud never stop bleeding.


So think bout it %26amp; be careful





It would be like playing with ur pet 24/7 without feeding him/her, its a sad fact but eventually ur pets body will give in %26amp; he/she will die.
Reply:Fruit juice is highly concentrated and has lots of sugar added.
Reply:Yeah. HUNGER! Try the fruit and vegetables diet. Only eat fish for meat
Reply:Not good...any diet that wants you to eliminate all (or most of) anything (sugar/carbs, fat, protein, food, etc) is not a good diet. Sure, you might lose weight but what happens when you start eating again?





Fruit juice doesn't have all the vitamins and minerals you need to stay healthy, and it has a lot of (natural) sugar.





The best way to lose weight is to eat a balanced diet and watch your calorie intake...and of course, exercise regularly.
Reply:I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS DIET, YOU WILL END UP WITH HEARTBURN OR SOMETHING. YOU NEED FOOD TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. JUST EAR HEALTHY FOOD. PLUS WHEN YOU GO ON THESE FUNNY DIETS,THE WEIGHT YOU LOSE COMES BACK AS SOON AS YOU START TO EAT AGAIN.
