Experts do not recommend getting carried away with diets that are not scientifically approved. However, methods that allow you to lose up to 5 kg in a week appear like mushrooms after rain.

One example is the egg diet, which has some downsides in addition to its benefits.

The egg diet helps fight weight, but without harming muscle mass. But at the same time, such a diet is not suitable for everyone.
