All Fruit Diet

You’ve been on a fruit juice or water diet to get rid of those extra pounds that prevent you from flaunting your sexy curves. While you are asked to avoid meals to increase the success of detoxification, know that less food intake reduces your metabolism rate to a great extent. Thus, to overcome this drawback and enhance your weight-loss program enters the all-fruit diet. As the name suggests, this diet comprises of nothing, but gorging on fruits and fruit juices, the entire day. While you love plucking fresh and ripe mangoes and peaches and biting them till you reach the soft flesh, this diet gives you another chance to marry your mouth with the splendid and juicy taste. Also called fruitarian diet, all-fruit diet includes acid fruits (such as oranges and grapefruits), sub-acid fruits (such as apples, cherries, and berries), sweet fruits (like grapes and melons), oily fruits (like coconut), and dried fruits (such as dates). If you wish to practice the all-fruit diet and lose some visible weight, learn how to make a fruit diet meal plan in the next section.

 

 

The morning meal is the most important of all meals. Hence, it should be nutritious and filling. Start off with watermelon pomace juice, coupled with a bowl of mixed melons to get that needed energy to work all day. Watermelon pomace juice is prepared by processing the flesh and rind of watermelon, and is known to reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. Further, it increases arginine levels, decreases blood levels of sugar and fat, and improves endothelial cellular activity in cells. In case you diabetic, consult your doctor before consuming watermelon pomace juice.

 

Combine lots of sub-acid fruits, since they have low glycemic level and do not shoot up your blood sugar levels. You can make a fruit bowl of apples, pears, apricots, peaches, and berries. Berries can consist of strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries. These are high in anti-oxidants and hence, decrease the risk of caner and heart disease, and slow down the ageing process.

 

To complete your fruit diet, do not miss on the teatime. While you cannot consume tea or coffee, you can certainly dig into an orange, tangerine, or dried fruits, such as figs and dates. For that much-needed energy, have a banana. For diabetics, grapefruits are a good option. If that is not sufficient, have a small bowl of dry fruits, such as almonds, Brazil nuts, hazelnuts, and pine nuts.

 

Have a mixture of coconut, mango, grapes, pears, pineapple, and papaya. You can also have a medium-sized bowl consisting of macadamia nuts, pistachios, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and sesame seeds.

 

While following an all fruit diet speeds up the detoxification process and enhances waste removal from the body, medical experts don't advise a fruitarian diet simply because of the long-term health implications associated with malnutrition and dietary imbalances. Following this diet for longer durations can lead to deficiency of vitamin B12 (found only in meat, eggs, and dairy products), diabetic or hypoglycemic-type symptoms (due to the presence of high sugar content in fruits), and eating disorder symptoms since long-term fruitarians often develop food cravings and binge on foods that are ‘illegal’ or ‘not allowed’.

 

To sum up, all fruit is the most delicious diet to practice and lose weight fast. However, its success depends on the type of fruits you savor.
