The world of diets is full of myths and illusions – probably because many people strive to lose weight quickly and, as they say, painlessly, as if by magic.
As a result, truly crazy diets are born that have nothing to do with healthy eating.
We suggest discussing such an absurd way to lose weight as the lemonade diet.
The meaning of the diet
The diet lasts 10 days, during which the person losing weight is offered to drink specially prepared lemonade.
The ingredients included in its composition help remove waste and toxins, “accelerate” the blood and speed up metabolism, and also saturate the body with vitamins and carbohydrates.
How to make lemonade
You will need the juice of half a lemon (3-4 tablespoons), which should be mixed with 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, a quarter teaspoon of cayenne pepper and a glass of water.
You need to drink 6 to 12 glasses of the drink throughout the day.
Why You Shouldn't Go on a Lemonade Diet
Despite the fact that the authors of the diet promise a loss of up to 9 kg of weight, it is worth remembering that the result is achieved through cleansing. The lemonade diet does not affect fat deposits.
In addition, the lemonade diet has many contraindications.
