How Can the General Motors Diet Help You?
Posted by fitnessguru in Prescription Diet Drugs on August 04th, 2009
The General Motors Diet, whether it is truth or fiction as a weight loss program for the failing automakers employees is a variation on a commonly used diet theme. This diet plan is to be used for one week and follows the same basic plan that diets like the cabbage soup diet, the grapefruit diet and many other follow.
Day one of this diet is to drink lots of water and eat only fruit. This phase prepares your body for the detoxification process over the next 6 days. Day two is a carbohydrate in the morning and the veggies all day long, as much as you want. Day three is just fruits and veggies. Day four adds bananas, milk and vegetable soup that you can eat as much of as you wish.? Day five is beef, tomatoes and an increase in water intake to further flush the system and adds additional nutrients that have been missing.? Day six is beef and vegetable and Day seven is brown rice, fruit juice and vegetables. This basic cleanse is recommended only one week per month.
The key to this diet is that it is recommended only one week per month. This is your basic cleanse that actually adds meat in the last few days, presumably to get your system back in shape for a regular diet. While you fast or diet during this week you are eating only those foods that use more energy to digest and therefore do not add to the bodies weight while it detoxifies the system of built up fat and waste.
This “diet” should probably not be used as the primary way for a person to lose weight. It will not provide necessary nutrients and energy for the body or any extended period of time. That said, it does seem to be a reasonable way to detoxify your body periodically and maintain and healthy state of being just as any cleansing program does. Use cleansing diets of the type with caution paying close attention to how your body responds and feels while following the program. Use them as periodic detoxification weeks instead of long term diet plans and you may find them useful as a part of your healthy lifestyle.
