There are several reasons why this program should be used with caution however, and the dangers involved may make you think otherwise before trying it. Today we're going to look at the lemon detox diet and examine if it's a healthy weight loss method.

Lemon Detox Diet - Myths and Dangers

We all want to lose weight quickly, no one thinks about trying the lemon detox diet, or any diet plan, without hoping that it will unlock the key to their fat burning potential. but is it safe for the body?

Let's find out!

Lemon Detox Diet - What it Is

Essentially the lemon detox diet is similar to most of the "cleanse" diets making the rounds these days, where you engage in a ten day fast in which you consume only pre-determined drinks based around lemonade as the core ingredient.

Also added to the mix are cayenne pepper and maple syrup (which organic or not is a large quantity of sugar regardless).

Lemon Detox Diet - The Reality

The positive impact of the lemon detox diet is at best mediocre. My concern as a weight loss specialist and Asian nutrition advocate is that by consuming a limited profile of vitamins and nutrients for such a long period of time throws off the body's natural rhythms dramatically.

For example, once you hit the third or fourth day typically your body will begin producing such high quantities of acid that it can leech and remove too many vital nutrients from the limited lemon water and raw vegetables you're eating. It's very similar to suffering from an eating disorder like bulimia or anorexia nervosa, as the amount of digested food is so low that the body begins going into a light state of shock to deal with it.

This is part of the reason why many people report side effects of vomiting, lethargy, extreme weakness, and fainting spells when they get deep into the program, as the body just isn't absorbing enough quality food to function properly.

"Your body does a perfectly good job of getting rid of toxins on its own" says Dr. Nasir Moloo, a gastroenterologist from a specialist group in California. "There's no evidence that these types of diets are helpful or necessary".

As with most shortcuts on the market, it's likely you not only won't receive any weight loss benefits from the lemon detox diet any more than you would if you just starved yourself by not eating anything for a week or more. Clearly a dangerous option when it's so easy to get thin the right way, without working out and without going hungry...
