Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

Acidic fruits have the strongest detoxifying effects of all fruit agents. Especially (red) grapefruit and lemons are detoxifying. Citrus fruit is all acid fruit but also tomatoes and pineapples are acid fruits. Citrus fruit is also very energizing.

What is the Citrus Diet?

The Citrus Diet is a diet in which the only things consumed by the dieter are citrus fruits and juices. You can eat lemons, limes, oranges and grapefruits along with lemon juice, lemonade, lime juice, orange juice and grapefruit juice.

How Does the Citrus Diet Work?

Due to the restriction of caloric intake and the high consumption of high fiber foods, your body goes to work shedding fat. Two Day Citrus is a cleansing diet. Other beliefs are that the powers of Vitamin C that citrus foods contain will also help promote weight loss. Whether or not Vitamin C has such a detoxifying effect is unknown.

Should You Go On the Citrus Diet?

Before you make the decision to go on the Citrus Diet, there are several things that you will want to take into consideration. Like all diets, there are pros and cons to the 2 Day Citrus Diet. For starters, you will want to keep in mind that citrus foods are known to cause damage to the teeth. If you do decide to go on this diet, it is important to maintain proper dental care. Also keep in mind that you will probably become hungry on this diet, mainly because you will not be eating anything besides citrus fruits. If you are looking for a healthy lifestyle change and a permanent way to keep the weight off, then the Citrus Diet may not be the best option.

What is Acai Berry?

Acai (pronounced ah-sigh-ee) is a high-energy berry that originates from the Amazon. Because of its nutritional value the weight-loss industry has been testing it on dieters.

Acai tastes like a mix of berries and chocolate. Acai is packed full of antioxidants, amino acids and essential fatty acids. Acai is not something you will find in the grocery store, but most likely something you’ll find in a health food store. Acai is one of the many products that are popping up online.

HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE ACAI BERRY DIET

The Acai Berry Diet includes consuming the Acai Berry in any form. The goal of the Acai Berry Diet is to lose weight, consume vitamins and minerals essential to the overall health of the body, increase energy and support continued weight loss. The Acai Berry also consists of fiber, antioxidants and fatty acids that keep you in good health all the time. As it makes you healthy, it is also intended to make it easier to reach your desired goal.

The Acai Berry makes the movement of food particles in your digestive system very easy and thus the unwanted food particles eradicated and not absorbed by the body and stored as fat. The fiber also aids in satisfying hunger.

PRO

* Increases energy
* Offers antioxidants and amino acids
* Good source of fiber
* Organic products available
* Many juices and other products available in major grocery stores

CON

* Like other exotic products, Acai can be pricey
* Does not provide exercise instructions

* Online suppliers have been known to auto-ship and auto bill your credit cards

Conclusion

In conclusion, all of the Acai Berry based diet products that are inundating the supplement market are all free trial nightmares. They get you on the free trial and usually bill your credit card up to $90 5 days after your purchase. There are legitimate products that contain Acai berry in them, but don’t fall for a free trial scam.

What is FucoSlim?

How FucoSlim works?

One of the cons to FucoSlim is that there isn’t a lot of information regarding how it works. It appears to target a protein called UCP1 that increases the rate at which abdominal fat is burned. FucoSlim has been tested on mice and rats by Japanese researchers and has been found to combat obesity. FucoSlim is taken one or two times daily. FucoSlim is not a long term solution to weight-loss problems.

Pro’s

* Wakame, green tea and pomegranates are very healthy foods

Con’s

* FucoSlim may induce side effects
* Not a long-term solution to weight loss
* Weight loss claims may be exaggerated
* No diet or exercise plan provided

Conclusion

In conclusion this product does contain a few good ingredients. In my opinion FucoSlim is trying to offer too much and as a result doesn’t effectively accomplish anything but minimal weight loss. Keep reading to learn more about the most effective and affordable diet pills on the market.
