Note: Experts consider this eating plan a fad diet. Fad diets often promote quick weight loss and severely restrict what you eat. They generally do not have long-lasting health benefits and may be harmful. Talk to your healthcare provider before making any major changes to how you eat.
Eating only fruits and vegetables may sound like a promising way to drop pounds quickly. But that weight loss isn’t sustainable. Plus, highly restricted diets come with significant downsides. Produce may be low in calories and rich in health-boosting antioxidants and fiber, but your body likely won’t get the healthy fats or protein it needs to function properly.
Learn whether eating only fruits and vegetables for a week or longer can help you lose weight in a significant way, and the potential risks of following a restrictive diet plan.
