Is doing like a water diet for 7 days bad?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably: I personally believe in balance. Our bodies spent thousands of years evolving to require balanced nutrition. In other words, its just not natural to do such a drastic diet. Practically speaking, without calories, electrolytes, you run the risk of becoming seriously ill.
