Anyone who wants an explanation of the cabbage soup diet can have one – BALONEY. There's no need to know anything more about this ridiculous diet. For the sake of filling time, more information is presented.

Nobody knows who created the cabbage soup diet. Like a chain letter or junk e-mail it was sent from fax machines to fax machine in the early 80s. There were many names for the diet, sometimes a well-known institution such as St. Jude's diet. But in reality the diet had nothing to do with many of these namesakes.

Water is important in the cabbage soup diet, often the only drink allowed in the course of the day. A general outline of the diet is something like this.

Day one -- cabbage soup and fruit, but not bananas.

Day two -- cabbage soup, vegetables – which could be half of a baked potato without butter.

Day three -- cabbage soup plus vegetables and fruit, not including bananas or potato.

Day four -- cabbage soup 8 bananas and skimmed milk.

Day five -- as much as 20 ounces of beef 6 tomatoes along with cabbage soup.

Day six -- cabbage soup, unlimited beef, and any vegetables except potatoes.

Day seven -- Along with cabbage soup eat brown rice, vegetables and unsweetened fruit juice – no potatoes.





The cabbage soup diet cuts calories by drastic amounts, thus the weight loss is also dramatic


The cabbage soup diet claims that people can lose 10 pounds in only one week. Unfortunately that would be 10 pounds in water weight. It's impossible to lose 10 pounds of fat in a week. But given a week the cabbage soup diet could make someone seriously ill from malnutrition.

In addition the cabbage soup diet isn't easy. Not because it's too complicated, but rather because seven days of cabbage soup becomes monotonous. It was common for people to last only a couple of days before quitting. There were even attempts to spice up cabbage soup recipes but they failed.
