My first question would be who gave it to you?
Are you about to undergo surgery?

There are many fad/very low calorie diets about that claim to be for certain patients,
such as gastric, heart patients etc.
Be aware.

If you have been given it by a doctor, then by all means follow their advice.

Not heard of it myself.....do bear in mind that your initial weight loss will be mainly water, and this kind of diet almost always leads to putting the weight back on soon after.
An extreme diet plan like this is not nutritionally balanced and does not contain
enough calories for a healthy lifestyle.

Good luck - I'd never heard of it, but googled and it's looks pretty tough to me. Let us know how you get on if you do it.

Hi there, I have been given what is called a chemical diet...apparently what doctors use for patients about to undergo gastric op's..any views? looking at them they seem harmless...
