Why Does This Diet Work?

• Low Calories: The diet keeps daily intake very low, forcing the body to burn stored fat.

• Protein Focused: Meals are high in protein, helping preserve muscle while losing weight.

• Simple Foods: Easy-to-find, portion-controlled ingredients reduce excess calorie consumption.

Precautions

• Short-Term Only: Avoid following for longer than 3 days at a time.

• Nutritional Deficiencies: Prolonged restriction may lead to lack of essential vitamins and minerals.

• Consult a Professional: Always check with a doctor before starting, especially if you have health conditions.
