Here are few diets that can claim long term weight loss. The liquid diet is one such proven method. It involves consumption of liquid food for a considerable period of time. It sound difficult for sure, but is it the best diet to lose weight effectively and quickly? Here is a quick review to know that the "liquid diet" be the best or not?

Benefits Of A Liquid Diet :

· They are easy to use, especially as the foods that are not easy palatable but are beneficial for health, such as celery.

· It is good for people who are moderate to high level of obesity. This involves replace of the meals with one or two liquid meals and helps to reduce body mass.

· An obvious positive aspect is that as there would be little or no use of fat in the liquid meal and therefore the fat gain from oil, butter, or margarine etc can be avoided completely.

· It also uses protein shakes which are healthier than eating a diet of cooked solid food as this increases the fat intake.

Disadvantages Of A Liquid Diet :

· They do not contain enough fiber as opposed to a solid diet of healthy foods. This results in constipation, and can lead to bringing and dieter dropout as they may not fill the appetite to satisfaction.

· These diets lack in essential nutrients and vitamins, for example they contain only one fourth of the amino acids in daily need. This can lead to a major health issue in the course of the diet.

· They also do not have enough vitamins and minerals. This can severely affect the health of the dieter.

· In number of cases the dieters gain the weight back, as soon as they switch back to their older eating habits as the change of diet is not long term lifestyle change. Hence the diet is not a long term solution to keep weight under control.
