The Three Day Diet
The “3 Day Diet” goes back to 1985 and today can be found all over the Internet and on book store shelves. The three day diet and its variants claim quick weight loss, a cleansing of the system, lower cholesterol and increased energy all through a “specific metabolic reaction” that no version of the diet has ever explained. The diet goes on for three days and then off for four or five with lots of specific and cryptic steps so that when it fails the dieter can be pinned for doing something wrong.
First day breakfast includes coffee (no sugar), one half a grapefruit, and a piece of toast with 1 Tbsp peanut butter. For lunch, you are to eat a can of tuna, a piece of toast, and black coffee. For dinner it's 3 ounces of chicken or lean meat, a cup of green beans, one cup of carrots, one apple, and one cup of regular vanilla ice cream. The following two days of the diet are pretty similar in meal quantity, though the specifics change, for example Day 2 recommends two beef franks for dinner in place of three ounces of lean meat. Supposedly it's possible to lose as much as 10 pounds in only three days.
Baloney! How's that for specific? And no baloney is not on the diet. As stated the metabolic reaction has never been examined much less proven. Any weight loss would be mostly water loss due to a lack of carbs which help the body hold water. That could lead to dehydration.
Because of binge eating after such starvation and because most of the weight lost is from water, the weight will quickly return after the three days. Furthermore, such water loss could result in some serious medical issues. But hey, then you'd lose some real weight in the hospital.
If something sounds too good to be true it is. The 3 day diet sounds too good to be true.
