12 Eggs a Day + Carrot Juice Diet: From Kitchen to ICU
-
Hey, forum pals!!!! I've got quite the story to share about my recent experiment with a rather unconventional diet. For a whole month, I decided to go all-in on a diet of 12 eggs a day and an entire liter of carrot juice. Sounds crazy, right? Well, here's how it all unfolded: the first few weeks were surprisingly uneventful. I adjusted to the repetitive meals of eggs prepared in various ways, and i actually felt more energetic during the day. The carrot juice, though an acquired taste, wasn't too bad once i got used to it. I even noticed some positive changes, like clearer skin and improved night vision. But then, things took a sharp turn.
after about three weeks on this diet, i ended up in intensive care for a grueling two weeks, followed by over a month in the hospital. It turned out my body couldn't cope with such an extreme and imbalanced diet. my nutrient levels went haywire, and i suffered severe health complications. This experience was a reminder that, no matter how intriguing a diet might sound, it's essential to prioritize a well-rounded and balanced approach to nutrition. So, what are your thoughts on this dietary adventure, and have you ever experimented with an extreme diet?

@newmexico I've heard of other people being sent to the hospital after overconsuming carrot juice before. Happened to Ashton Kutcher too, apparently.

You need to rethink everything. I recommend putting parental lock on all of your devices so only very select few are available. This includes the internet, no more for at least 6 months. During this time, go to the supermarket and buy foods that look tasty and eat them. Also spend lots of time going for long walks outside and interacting with other humans
