Hills Diet Review
What You Should Know
The Hills Diet, or the Beverly Hills Diet as the plan is also called, was first introduced in 1981 as author Judy Mazel released her book on the plan. The weight loss plan aims to reduce weight in just 6 weeks with a very strict set of instructions and food lists. There is no official website at this time for the Hills Diet, but this could be due to the death of the author in 2007.

Product Features
The Beverly Hills Diet is one of the most restrictive diets on the market today. Even though the book was originally released in 1981, the methods are still in play today. The weight loss plan begins with 10 days of fruit which needs to be eaten in a specific pattern over those 10 days. For days 11 through 18, the dieter can broaden the diet a bit and begin consuming bread, butter and corn. On the 19th day of the plan, specific protein can be added.
The Hills Diet is not one of the most supported diets on the market today. After the Hills Diet book became a best seller, doctors from Johns Hopkins University and the University of Maryland both criticized the diet plan for being unhealthy. The plan restricts foods that are needed to incorporate a healthy daily diet. The doctors were also concerned about the 10 day fruit fast due to the diarrhea that could be associated with eating so much fruit. This loss of water could severely dehydrate the body.
There is confusing information on the Internet regarding the Hills Diet. There are two forms of the diet ñ the original Hills Diet and the New Hills Diet. The prices for the Hills Diet book will range from $10.17 to more than $25.00 depending on which version of the book you purchase.
Advantages
- The diet is very restrictive which can help dieters who have trouble making food choices.
Disadvantages
- There is no official website for the Hills Diet.
- There is an original and new version of the diet plan.
- The original Hills Diet is very restrictive and could be harmful to your health.
- Doctors call this diet plan a ìfadî diet and disapprove of the plan.
Conclusion
The Hills Diet was created more than 25 years ago and doctors have disapproved the diet plan for all 25 years. The restrictive phase of the diet plan forces the dieter to eat only fruit which can cause severe dehydration and a laxative effect. If followed for a significant period of time, the dehydration could lead to death. This fad diet is not one we choose to support.
