Extreme dieting is: dangerous, even life-threatening. Weight loss needs to be supervised by a doctor. Blood sugar can go out of balance and cardiac issues can result just for starters. Spectracell lab in Texas has a good nutritional lab panel that can become the basis of a good food plan. Peace and good health.
