Apple Day

Apple day consists of eating nothing but apples for 1 day.  You eat 6 large apples and drink water all day.   That’s it.   No other fruit, no vegetables or protein.

Steak Day

Drink plenty of water. In the evening, a huge steak with only an apple or a raw tomato.

Herbal Teas

Dr. Simeons suggests a diuretic, that maybe a bit drastic and if you are not under a doctors supervision maybe hard to get.  Some herbal teas act as a natural diuretic and will produce the same desired effect, release of water.  You can get a list of the recommended hCG diet teas and their benefits that Kevin Trudeau recommended by click here: hCG Diet Tea

• Cornsilk Tea
• Green Tea
• Dandelion Tea
• Fennel Tea
• Parsley Tea

You can add more tea to your hCG diet or do a fast with tea. Parsley Tea in particular is a very powerful natural diuretic. It contains vitamins A and C and has more beta-carotene than a large carrot. A cup of minced parsley has more vitamin C then eating 2 oranges. And a cup of minced parsley has more calcium than a cup of milk and 20 x as much iron as liver. Parsley is also a natural breath freshener thanks to chlorophyll contain in Parsley.
