“The chemical diet has not only advantages but also disadvantages. The first week of the diet involves a sharp cut in the diet, which negatively affects the state of the intestines. Not only does he strain, processing a huge amount of protein foods, the person also "pours" it with sour grapefruit juice. This can cause abdominal pain and cramps, as well as disrupting your overall health.
Therefore, when the first signs of deterioration appear, the diet should be abandoned. Otherwise, the recovery process will be very long and difficult.
A chemical diet should be followed by people suffering from 2 and 3 degrees of obesity. For the rest, it is advisable to choose a less rigid method of losing weight."
