Hollywood 48 Hour Miracle Diet and Hollywood
24 Hour Miracle Diet are intended to produce large
amounts of weight loss in very short times.
The 48
hour diet claims that dieters can lose up to 10 pounds
in just two days. The 24 hour diet claims that dieters
can lose up to 5 pounds in just one day.
These diets
suggest that they be repeated often until the desired
weight loss has been achieved. These diets also claim
that they will detoxify the body and rejuvenate the
dieter.
The 30 Day Miracle Diet is intended to provide
more long term weight loss over a period of one moth.
The amount of weight that dieters can expect to lose
during that time period is not specified.
The Hollywood 48 and 24 Hour Diets are not
intended to be lifestyle changing diets. They do not
provide recommendations for exercise, and they do
not provide the dieter with any other forms of healthy
lifestyle support, such as stress reduction techniques.
The 30 Day Miracle Diet encompasses the 48 and 24
Hour products, but is intended to be a lifestyle program
for more long term weight loss. It does provide
healthy eating and exercise recommendations for the
dieter to follow during the course of the diet.
Benefits
The Hollywood 24 and 48 Hour diets do contain
fruit products and many vitamins and minerals that
are part of a balanced diet. Drinking the diet product
instead of a higher calorie, sugary drink such as soda,
may have some health benefits. Used as a diet however
the benefits are unclear.
The dieter may lose weight on
the diet, but it is likely to return quickly after the diet is
stopped if old eating habits are resumed. There may be
some psychological benefit to quick weight loss but
this are likely to be undone if the weight is regained.
The 30 Day Miracle Program may have some
benefits. The suggestions for helping dieters maintain
the weight loss achieved by the 24 or 48 Hour Diets
follows many guidelines for healthy eating and moderate
exercise.
Following these suggestions, such as
avoiding sugar, red meat, and fatty foods, are more
likely than the 24 and 48 hour diets to result in moderate,
sustainable weight loss.
Weight loss can have
many health benefits if achieved through healthy eating
and exercise. Obesity is a risk factor for many
diseases and conditions, such as type II diabetes and
heart disease.
Weight loss can reduce this risk. Following
the diet’s recommendation for 30 minutes or more
per day of brisk walking may also have health benefits.
Regular exercise has been shown to reduce the risk of
cardiovascular disease.
