British Heart Foundation Diet
The British Heart Foundation Diet (also known as the Greenlane diet)
is a poor fad diet that has been circulating for many years. Please note that the British Heart Foundation has nothing to do with this diet whatsoever.
The diet has circulated in the form of a one page sheet that claims you can lose 10 pounds in 3 days. The diet has been popular in the UK – but its exact origins are unknown.
British Heart Foundation Diet Plan
This diet is not recommended
| Breakfast
5 ’snax’ biscuits (dry crackers) |
| Lunch
1 boiled egg |
| Dinner
1 cup of tuna |
The British Heart Foundation diet is a very low calorie diet (approx. 700 calories per day), and is often only used for a few days. It is unsustainable. The meal plan should not be undertaken for any length of time without medical supervision.
can you swap the cauliflower for carrots?
this diet is good for a quick fix but in the long run its a BAD IDEA!! as soon as u start eatin rite again the weight just piles bk on. everyone try the body trim diet ita amazin n it actually works! i eat more now than i ever have n the weight is just droppin off its mint…plz try it its so much better 4 u better 4 u in the long run
first 3 weeks I lost a stone and felt great xx
can u drink as much water as u want? or only 3 glasses throughout the whole day??
Starting this diet today, had a 45 min run before breakfast this morning, here’s hoping i get the results i’ve been hearing
good luck to all those trying the same.. ill report with my verdict in 3 days time
can you still drink you 2 litres of water on this diet and can it be sparkling water?
Last year I lost over 4 stone by good old hard work and healthy eating.. then christmas came along and I’ve put almost a stone of that back on. I can’t seem to get back onto my healthy eating plan so, (having never done a ‘fad’ diet before) I decided something short yet extreme was the best way to kick my backside before getting back onto my plan.
I’m at the start of day 2 and have already lost 4lbs. I substituted the grapefruit for orange, I’m having green beans and carrots as my veg every day and cottage cheese instead of the tuna. Yesterday was fine, was a little bit hungry between dinner and tea but I was so full after tea I struggled to get the ice-cream down!
However, I feel dreadfull today. I’m very, very hungry and have a terrible headache, which is no doubt from the total cut off of caffeine and sugar.. I will see the 3 days through though and report back. It’s only 3 days, right?
Good luck everyone x
I’m 22 and 13.3stone. I have always battled my weight and this is the only diet that i can say really works for short term success. I have done this diet for a period of 3 weeks before now, and have lost a stone and a half.
this diet is fantastic to kick start a serious healthy lifestyle reigime. It gives you a head start and makes you feel like you’re really doing a good job. you can see a difference and that pays off – there’s nothing worse than dieting for weeks only to have dropped a pound or two.
highly recommended for a short term solution only. carry on after 3 days eating well, but healthily, and you’ll notice a drastic difference.

Clearing veins and arteries, that really works.
First use fresh water to wash the lemons and garlic.
Take 6 lemons cut up including peel (Make sure the lemons are the thin-skinned types). If you can only get the thick-skinned ones simply peel the thin outer yellow peel. Place this in a heap ready to go into the mixture. Then peel off the thick white stuff and throw away. No need on the thin-skinned lemons, just chop them up. The garlic (30 cloves) you usually get about ten cloves per bulb of garlic. Just separate the cloves and chop up (no need to worry about a bit of peel or shell), as the whole lot will be strained when finished.
Place 3 lemons and 15 cloves of garlic in food processor or vitamiser. Top it up with water (If you want you can add a little sugar for taste) and then vitamise.
pour into a metal pot. Then repeat the process with the other 3 lemons and 15 cloves of garlic. Finally was the vitamiser out with another litre of water and pour this also into the pot.
Bring the pot to boil, and then simmer for five minutes. Pour through a strainer, and let liquid drain into another pot. Finally when all the liquid has drained into the pot, leave it for some time to cool.
When it has cooled use a strainer and funnel to pour into bottles.
Note: give the mixture time to drain through the strainer. And do not keep the slurry from the strainer. Simply throw it away.
You should finish up with (About 3 to 4 Litre Bottles Quantity). Store in fridge. NOTE: DO NOT USE PLASTIC BOTTLES (Plastic bottles with filled warm or hot liquid can cause serious health problems), as plastic particles will leach into liquid in bottle. Use only GLASS Bottles to keep the mixture in.
First Dosage: Drink 1 standard glass each day for three weeks.
Then stop for one week
Second Dosage: Drink 1 standard glass each day for the final three weeks.
Repeat above every six months, or whenever you feel like it as long as you allow some time between treatments.
You can also warm the liquid if preferred, or even dilute it with water and ice for a refreshing summer drink. The lemons kill the smell of garlic on your breath. The secret of the mixture is it’s easy to prepare, and inexpensive to make up.
In my family there has never been any recorded case of cancer. However many heart problems. Twenty years ago I had plaque around the heart. Was told I would need heart surgery in about 15 or 20 years. One day a man who had been facing heart surgery for blocked arteries told me of a mixture that he had taken over 7 weeks that had completely cleared his blocked arteries. He was told he did not need bi-pass surgery.
I wrote the mixture down for future reference. I gave someone a lift to move some heavy machinery around. Started to get chest pains. After a few days
Heres one you can try. Cut out tea and coffee and all the added sugar. eat only one meal at midday. Make it a good one (eat what you want) Meat, Vedgetables and a desert with one glass of red wine. Drink plenty of water 7 glasses a day.
To substitute your breakfast and evening meal simply take a spoonful 5 ml of olive leaf extract oil. This has 40 times the antioxidants of olives (Must be liquid not tablets).
Within two weeks you will have lost weight and feel like a million dollars.
When you have lost the weight. You can start having three small meals a day. Monitor your weight weekly and if you find it has risen by half a stone go back on the diet for a week or two.
Olive leaf extract oil is also great for arthritic joints; it will ease the condition noticeably. Note it is known as “Black gold for arthritics”.
Oh a word of warning…I once described its benefits once to an 80 year old lady, who asked me are there any bad side effects from taking olive leaf extract oil. I told her that it would probably increase her sex drive by ten. Whereupon she said great I will buy a bucketful
Cheers
