Have You Heard About the Fat-Burning Soup Diet?
Yes, there’s a fat burning soup. It isn’t a magic trick, simply a mixture of various ingredients that help cleanse your body due to its depurative and diuretic properties.
Of course, the soup has to be accompanied by a healthy diet. If you follow this diet to the T, you will be able to lose a few pounds in a short amount of time. However, it has to be emphasized that this regimen is only meant for emergencies; carrying it out for more than seven days can do more harm than good.
However, it’s important that you follow a balanced diet and exercise regularly for long-term results.

Once it is prepared, it is time to eat the soup. The diet lasts for seven days and the regimen for each day is as follows:

- 3: Eat the soup all day + as many fruits and vegetables as you’d like.
- 4: Eat the soup all day + bananas and skim milk (blended bananas, sweeten if you’d like).
