The 'Lemonaid Diet'?????

Question

ok i heard about this from the internet, beyonce', and my mom who did it for a couple of days....but is it true that for someone who is still growing, like me, the lemonaide diet can stunt your growth, is it also correct that anorexia can do that also...????

Answer 1

you only do it for about 10 days...at first.
its called the master cleanse.
better get some baby wipes if u are going to try it, if u know what i mean!

Answer 2

if your body lacks any essential nutrients required for growth it is seemingly obvious you will not grow and in turn be very unhealthy. Could even kill you, dieting is not the asnwer and healthy eating plan including all the food groups, or even a vegetarian style diet with adequate calories is a much better approach than sipping lemonade to loose weight c'mon.

Answer 3

Any juice fast should be combined with multi vitamins. And you should not be doing a juice fast if you're under 18. Definately not if you're in puberty. You should also only use it to kickstart a real diet. And even then it's still unhealthy, however in short doses coupled with a serious attempt at weight loss you should be OK.

Answer 4

anorexia can permanently effect your endocrine system and cause a lifetime of illness. severely restricting the calories during the growth years is the single worst thing a young woman can do for her body besides smoking, drinking and using drugs both prescription and illegal.

Answer 5

yes it does stunt your growth because lemonade doesnt have all the vitamins and minerals you need to keep growing just eat normally

Answer 6

yes, u need all ur necessary food groups. its not worth it

Answer 7

um, i guess so... i think i have heard that before?..
