The Diet

There is a variety of three-day diets that pass from person to person and on the Internet. They tend to promise weight loss of 10 lb (4.5 kg) or more in just three days. The most recognizable form of three-day diet on the Internet involves consumption of a large quantity of tuna and various vegetables during the day, with ice cream each evening.

Surprisingly surviving the test of time, the 3 Day Diet is another fad diet, dating back to 1980s. Copies of the 3 Day Diet continue to float around cyberspace, promising quick weight loss, cleansing, lower cholesterol, and increased energy. However, no diet book exists to validate the science at the back of the unique metabolic reaction.

Frequently misguidedly called The Cleveland Clinic Diet, the 3 Day Diet is a well-ordered plan that must be followed precisely for three days at a time, followed by normal intake for four or five days before opting to restart the plan again.

Supporters of the 3 Day Diet are promised up to a 10 pound weight loss in three days, although logically, most of that weight is likely due to fluid loss and not the more desirable fat loss. To achieve the proposed loss, exercise is not mentioned in the plan.
