If you think drinking distilled water in and of itself is a subject of much debate, wait until the topic of a distilled water diet comes up. That is exactly what we will be discussing in this article. Sure, there are two sides to just about every story and this subject is no different. However, we will primarily be focusing on what we believe are the benefits of a distilled water diet.
The term “distilled water diet” is more often than not referred to as distilled water fasting. One thing that is extremely important about this type of diet – or any diet for that matter – is that you educate yourself thoroughly about exactly what it consists of and – for lack of a better term- exactly what you’re getting yourself into.
While it is true that the distilled water diet helps to disrupt any bad eating habits you currently have, you need to know how to go about it right or you may find to your dismay that it was all for nothing and you will be right back at square one. Now let’s get this straight from the get-go. You will not be drinking only distilled water and that’s it.
On the contrary, it is highly suggested that you incorporate fresh vegetables and fruits into your diet regimen. Distilled water diets usually run 14 to 21 days in duration. Many people who have followed this diet have found that they have a better understanding of the fact that all the excess salt and sugar we tend to add to our food is simply not necessary. That is in large part due to the fact that their palates have been rid of many impurities and chemicals.
Another important thing to understand is that the 14 to 21 days mentioned above is not an absolute standard. Even just 3 to 4 days and in some rare instances one day of a distilled water diet have been found to be quite helpful. In fact, some professionals recommend that those considering this type of diet regiment take baby steps (shorter durations) in the beginning to better prepare themselves for a full-scale distilled water diet.
While there are many diet regimens from which to choose, we do suggest that you consider the distilled water diet as one viable option. And as with any fitness or dietary regime, you should always consult with your physician or a qualified medical professional before actually beginning such a program.
