Fruit diet for weight loss in 7 days

The fruit diet entails eating 5 different fruit and vegetables, along with a handful of nuts (or another source of protein), at every meal for a week. It leads to rapid weight loss which is clearly seen from the third day.

Fruit contains antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and fiber. All of these nutrients will help you to lose weight and improve long-term health. There are some major nutrients that fruit generally lack. These include protein, iron and essential fatty acids. It is important that you include a good source of protein (like nuts, seeds or one of the other protein sources listed below) to make sure that you don't become deficient in one of these nutrients.

We need protein.

Why do we need protein on the fruit diet?

The body uses protein to make and repair tissue. It also uses protein for a variety of other functions. Protein deficiency is usually caused by malnutrition (lack of food in extremely poor communities). You can also experience a lack of protein if your daily diet does not contain enough of it.

Signs or symptoms of protein deficiency

1. Hair loss
2. Brittle nails
3. Dry, itchy, wrinkly or rough skin
4. Swollen or puffy skin
5. Bloated belly
6. Kwashiorkor
7. Very low immune system
8. Increased frequency and severity of viral and bacterial infections
9. Low muscle mass and muscle weakness
10. Brittle bones and high chance of bone fractures
11. Constant hunger cravings (sometime for sugar, sometimes for salty food)
12. Increased or decreased appetite
13. Fatty liver (leading to inflammation, liver disease and liver failure)
14. Stunted growth
15. Wounds take longer to heal
16. Pale skin
17. Yellow skin and yellow eyes

Eat enough protein.

It is important to make sure that you get enough protein - no matter what diet you are on. You can cause many health complications if you don't get enough of this precious nutrient every day.

Can you get protein from fruit?

Fruit are not a good source of protein. The fruit with the highest amount of protein is the guava. A single guava contains 1.4 grams of protein. Males who don't exercise generally need 56 grams of protein per day. Females need 46 grams of protein per day. You'd need to eat 40 guavas per day if you were male and 33 guavas per day if you were a female.

Since guavas have the highest protein content, you'd need to eat a lot more than that if you depended on other fruit for your protein content. You would need even more protein if you exercise, which you should be doing every day.

If you are going to use the fruit diet for weight loss, you need to include other sources of protein to ensure that you don't become protein deficient.

Sources of protein

Include at least one of these proteins at every meal to make sure that you get enough protein:

1. Eggs
2. Nuts
3. Seeds
4. Beans
5. Lentils
6. Fish
7. Chicken
8. Beef
9. Pork
10. Seafood
11. Turkey
12. Cheese, yogurt or milk
13. Beef jerky
14. Protein shake

Eat enough of these foods every day.

These protein sources will also have the iron and essential fatty acids that you need to stay healthy.

Can I lose weight by eating nothing but fruit? 

You can lose a lot of weight by eating nothing but fruit. Most fruits are over 80% water. They also contain lots of fiber that can't be digested and turned into fat. The sugar in fruit is locked away in this fiber and takes a long time to be released into the bloodstream. This prevents the blood sugar spike that we get when we eat processed food that has added sugar.

Eat fruit to lose weight.

How much weight can I lose when I eat nothing but fruit?

You can lose just under a pound for every two days that you eat nothing but fruit. You will still lose weight if you add the listed protein sources. Protein makes the diet sustainable and prevents a nutrient deficiency.

Should I use the fruit diet for weight loss?

I am a big fan of the health benefits of fruit and vegetables for weight loss, but I don't believe that this kind of diet is sustainable. It doesn't have enough of the nutrients that you need like protein, iron and essential fatty acids. It won't give you sustainable weight loss and you can't follow it every day.

It is better to follow a diet that has all of the nutrients that your body needs - and none of the nutrients that will turn into fat. Weight loss will be sustainable (you won't gain it back as soon as you stop the diet) and you can follow the diet for much longer than a week.

Get everything you need.

What is the best diet for weight loss?

The best diet for weight loss will give your body all of the nutrients that it needs and cut out all of the foods that lead to weight gain. A good weight loss diet will include whole sources of protein, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber, energy and avoid added sugar, processed food, sweeteners and other artificial junk.

These are the best diets:

For beginners that have never followed a diet before

The basic diet is easy to follow. It gives you all of the nutrients that you need and empowers your body to use fat for energy instead of turning every meal into further weight gain. I would recommend this diet for absolute beginners.

Best diet for overall weight loss

The healthy weight loss diet improves your health and uses your body's own natural mechanisms for fat metabolism. It improves your metabolism and doesn't have the typical weight gain that follows shortly after most diets. I would recommend this diet for most people who want to lose weight. You can follow this diet indefinitely without any negative health consequences.

The keto diet

The keto diet will teach your body to use fat for energy and greatly reduce the amount of sugar that can be stored as fat. It involves reducing sugar and carbohydrate intake. Your body will eventually adapt to use fat as its primary source of energy.

For young adults

Young adults get their own diet because their bodies have specific needs. They need the most amounts of energy possible as they complete their education or start their own career. There is a female diet and a male diet. Both of them will lead to weight loss and improved energy.

For people who live in the eastern world

The Indian diet plan is the best diet for people who aren't familiar with typical western foods. It contains the types of food that are common in the eastern parts of the world. People who would like a completely new kind of diet can also try it out.

Choose long term health benefits.

Final word on the fruit diet

Fruit is good for you. You might lose a lot of weight on the fruit diet, but you won't get enough protein. This can lead to disastrous health consequences. Include a good source of protein at every meal to avoid this. There are other diets out there that will also lead to weight loss without any of the negative health consequences of a fruit-only diet.

Remember to do everything in moderation and consult your medical practitioner before you make any major lifestyle changes. Stay Strong!

Healthy weight loss lasts longer.
