It was something about a liquid diet, giving your digestive tract a rest. Fresh fruit and vegtables. Any information would be helpful. Thanks

Violet Pearl, they way people eat NOW is not the way people at for 'thousands of years'
thousands of years ago food wasnt full of hormones, pesticides and chemicals, the human body is not meant to absorb all of the stuff it does nowadays and yes because of that, the digestive tract does need a rest...and if u want to look into history, juice/liquid/water fasts have been around FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS examples are monks, native indians, buddhists etcetera...which have all been around longer than the three meals a day routine so yes, liquid diets are fine in moderation but again u should only attempt something like this when u are in touch with ur body and can decipher its signals...ie if ur not feeling refreshed, rejuvenated and energized than u are not eating what is right for your bodyfor example, some people cant function without meat, i cant function with it...i thrive on fruits and vegetables, i feel bloated, heavy, lethargic when i eat heavy meals such as meat and potatoes or even just chicken...my body craves as natural and light as possible, i react to any processed foods and agricultural byproducts like breads and pastasnow on the other hand, my boyfrined cannot function without heavy carbs and meat, you have to LISTEN TO UR OWN BODY...a fast is meant to enlighten you, to bring u in touch withi ur body, u should feel rejuvinated, energized...if ur lethargic and cant function or feel terrible (after the first few days, u will normally feel under the weather for the first one or two days while ur body cleanses depending on how long u have ate crap for), then quit the fast and resume normal healthy eating habitsdocument how u feel after each food u eat, u will start to see a cycle, stick to the ones ur body is asking for by feelnig good when it gets it, it doesnt have to be hard, confusing or complicated, ur body is smarter than u give it credit forso under normal healthy circumstnaces, when u have no health concerns such as diabetes, hypoglycemia, etc...then try it, it can truly be an amazing thing...its all in ur willpower and mindset
it's more like losing 8 pounds of water, 8 pounds of muscle and 4 pounds of fat - you will be worse off than when you started - losing 1-2 pounds per week insures that most of the weight loss comes from fat
Yeah, doesn't sound very healthy when you're losing a lot of muscle =O
Lot of such ads.Eat only when hungry and not more than thrice a day. Nothing other than water in between. Include plenty of uncooked vegetables and fruits in each meal, preferably 50%. Chew each morsel at least 32 times to activate ur body to generate signals of hunger/fullness. Obey these signals.Take light exercises and brisk walks regularly preferably twice a day.U will achieve what u have not even dreamt and that too in a reasonable time. Do not be in a hurry.
The best way to diet is to watch your fat intake, control your portions (eat a little less) and excercise more.
LOL that's hilarious! People have been eating 3 meals a day for thousands of years, and suddenly we need to give our digestive tracts a rest? LOL
