How does it work?

The Hollywood 48 Hour Miracle Diet disrupts your regular food intake while cleansing your digestive system.  The juice is a blend of natural fruit juices, enzymes and minerals which in combination acts as a mild laxative to flush out your system.   Consuming the juice at regular intervals thorough out the day, helps to balance your blood sugar level and aids in controlling your hunger.

Where does the weight loss come from?

At this point you need to understand a little biology. 

First Fat Loss. 

A pound of fat contains 3500 calories and the average 150 lb person will burn about 2000 calories a day.  This would result in a maximum fat loss of just over 1 pound over 2 days.  This applies to all diets claiming fast weight loss, not just the Hollywood Diet.  One pound of fat loss over 2 days or 3 1/2 pounds a week, is the maximum fat loss you should expect from any diet.

Muscle Loss

A pound of muscle contains about 700 calories.  So in fact if your body burns only muscle for energy you would lose 6 pounds of muscle in 2 days.  This of course would not happen as your body will only burn small amounts of muscle at a time, perhaps 700 calories a day at the most or about a pound per day.  The loss of muscle can be prevented or reduced by exercising. Your body will only burn muscle as a last resort if they (muscles) are being used.  When dieting the saying “use it or lose it” as it applies to muscle, is true.  This is one reason why it is important to exercise while dieting so that you do not lose muscle.  Remember ,”use it or lose it”.

Waste product 

The typical individual has between 3 and 10 pounds of fecal matter and other waste material in their body.  In fact, this is where a large part of the weight loss comes from in the Hollywood Miracle Diet.  This is the main reason I would call it a cleansing diet. You might expect to lose between 2 and 5 pounds or more of waste matter.  

Water Loss

The Hollywood diet may also act as a diuretic causing you to lose water. You may expect to lose between 1 and 6 pounds due to water loss. Please remember to drink plenty of water. You should drink at least 10 – 8oz glasses of water.  In fact, when you drink a lot of water, your body will have a tendency to retain less water.
