You are required to drink as much as you like - ideally 6 to 9 glasses a day or whenever you feel hungry. The single most important part of the detox program is not eating - no solid foods are allowed. For optimal results it is recommended that you go on this diet for 10-14 days.
Does it work?
There's little evidence that extreme diet regimens such as this do anything other than lead to unpleasant, unhealthy side effects. The idea of detoxifying or purifying the body of harmful substances has been around for centuries. However, your body does a perfectly good job of getting rid of toxins on its own. On this radical diet you will most likely lose weight due to calorie restriction. Once dieters resume their normal eating habits, you will most likely just put all the weight back on again. Although the syrup in the drink provides some energy, overall there is a serious restriction in calories, resulting in feeling constantly hungry.
