The lemonade diet + detox recipes: 3 kg away in 15 days

The lemonade diet , that is: 3 detoxifying recipes based on lemon juice to use for a period of one to two weeks to easily lose 3 kg without making drastic dietary changes, deflating the belly and increasing intestinal regularity.

How does the lemonade diet work, and why does it work?

The lemonade diet is a diet that involves drinking lemonade from early morning to mid-afternoon to provide the body with more vitamin C which acts as an antioxidant and intestinal cleanser as well as a diuretic.

The lemonade should be enriched with mineralizing substances such as sliced ​​citrus fruits (without peel) in addition to organic fruit, fresh aromatic herbs, organic honey or molasses or malt, spices.

In addition to drinking lemonade, for one or two weeks the diet includes a very light dinner based on a warm, hot or cold soup that is low-calorie and does not include potatoes or legumes (or a light soup alternatively).

Breakfast and lunch can be free, so this diet is not drastic, as long as there is a protein food such as skimmed Greek yogurt, meat or fish (also ok: bresaola, defatted ham, turkey breast, natural or smoked canned fish , shellfish or legumes), tofu, tempeh or seitan, cottage cheese or two eggs at the beginning of the meal.

For maintenance , dinner is eaten like lunch without carbohydrates but with 150 grams of fruit in their place and drinking only two glasses of lemonade for two weeks + one free meal per week. In the following weeks: 1 glass of lemonade in the morning + 2 free meals per week.

It is therefore a simpler and more balanced version of the famous Master Cleanse lemonade diet .
