The LDD diet is a structured regime that involves taking LDD (liquid diet drops) on a regular basis, suppoted by a 500 calorie per day diet. Any additional calorie requirement that the body has is taken from your body’s fat stores.
What Are Liquid Diet Drops?
LDD are a safer alternative to the HCG diet (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) that has become popular over recent years. Unlike HCG, LDD contain no hormones whatsoever.
LDD is made up of natural amino acids. These amino acids trigger signals in the body that kick start the breaking down of body fats. In this way, stored body fat is used as the primary source of energy. LDD should be combined with a low calorie diet so other sources of energy are kept at a minimal so fatty stores are used first.
