The Four Cycles
Cycle 1: The accelerate cycle, limits participants to 1200 calories a day, and prohibits the eating of sugary or processed foods. Requires participants to eat lean protein and non starchy vegetables.
Cycle 2: The Activate stage, allows participants to increase their calories by 500, and to eat two servings of whole grains a meal. This is recommended in order to increase gut motility and promote weight loss.
Cons: This diet deprives the body of adequate calories, causing the body to rely on fat instead of glucose for energy, this means placing the body in a form of ketone acidosis, which the body should only go under during a form of fasting.
This diet also lifestyle change although participants may lose weight in the first two cycles, they will regain their weight back in the last cycles when the can eat whatever they want.
This constant cycling of diets could also cause a participant to initially gain more adipose stores, and require even less calories than before to try to lose weight placing their bodies into more stress during the next round of cycles.
