Liquid diets is a broad category of diets that can
be used for a number of different reasons.
In essence, it
means any diet which replaces regular meals of solid
foods, with fluid drinks. For many medical procedures
it is helpful, or even necessary, that patients consume
only liquids before or after the operation.
People also
consume only liquids during periods of fasting. When
a person is diagnosed as seriously obese, a physician
may decide that he or she should undergo a medically
observed weight loss program, like Optifast.
There are
also several programs like Slim Fast, that mimic the
medically-observed programs, but in a less severe way
that can be followed without supervision.
