Metabolic Health ⓘ
4
Temporarily lowers calorie intake but lacks long-term metabolic benefits and may induce nutrient deficiencies.
4
May temporarily improve some markers but risks blood sugar instability and nutrient deficiencies.
Micronutrients ⓘ
3
Severely lacks essential vitamins and minerals, leading to significant deficiencies.
2
Severely lacks critical micronutrients like B12, D, and iodine without fortification or supplementation.
Nutrient Density ⓘ
3
Relies on low-variety, water-rich foods with limited nutrient concentration per calorie.
4
Provides moderate nutrient content per calorie but lacks fiber and may have high sugar content reducing efficiency.
Overall Health ⓘ
2
Severe nutrient deficiencies and unsustainable restrictions compromise long-term health and metabolic function.
3
Severely limits essential nutrients and long-term sustainability while lacking robust evidence for chronic disease prevention.
Sustainability ⓘ
2
Severely restricts food variety and nutrient balance, making long-term adherence impractical and unsustainable.
3
Requires extreme dietary restriction, lacks flexibility, and is impractical for long-term adherence due to cost, preparation demands, and psychological strain.
Lifestyle Fit ⓘ
3
Severely restricts social interactions, travel adaptability, and daily convenience, causing significant lifestyle disruption.
2
Severely restricts social engagement, travel flexibility, and daily routine integration, making long-term adherence impractical for most lifestyles.
Practicality ⓘ
7
Offers low cost and accessibility but requires strict meal repetition and limited variety, reducing long-term practicality.
2
Requires significant financial cost, specialized equipment, and time-intensive preparation, making long-term adherence highly impractical for most individuals.
Appetite Control ⓘ
5
Limited protein and restrictive nature may cause hunger but low energy density provides temporary satiety.
3
Severely restricts protein and fiber, leading to significant hunger and cravings due to low satiety and glycemic instability.
Fat Quality ⓘ
2
Severely restricts essential healthy fats and lacks omega-3 sources, promoting an imbalanced and deficient fat profile.
3
Severely lacks essential healthy fats and omega-3s, risking cardiovascular and hormonal imbalances.
Fiber Intake ⓘ
3
Primarily relies on limited insoluble fiber from cabbage, lacking diversity and functional benefits for long-term gut and metabolic health.
3
Severely limited fiber quantity, type diversity, and functional outcomes due to reliance on low-fiber juices and potential digestive distress.
Gut Health ⓘ
3
Severely restricts dietary diversity and may impair microbiome diversity and digestive tolerance.
3
Severely limits dietary fiber diversity and excludes prebiotic/fermented foods, risking digestive distress and reduced microbiome diversity.
Hormonal Support ⓘ
2
Severe caloric restriction and nutrient deficiencies disrupt insulin, cortisol, sex hormones, and thyroid function.
3
Severely restricts macronutrients and micronutrients critical for hormonal balance, risking insulin instability, cortisol elevation, and sex hormone deficiencies.
Macro Balance ⓘ
3
Significantly low in protein and fat, leading to poor macro balance.
2
Severely lacks protein and fat, promotes excessive sugar intake, and lacks adaptability for functional health outcomes.
Protein Quality ⓘ
2
Severely inadequate in essential amino acids and digestible protein sources, leading to significant muscle catabolism and satiety deficits.
1
Severely lacks sufficient high-quality protein for muscle recovery and satiety.
Taste ⓘ
3
Limited flavor variety and repetitive meals reduce long-term enjoyment and adherence.
3
Limited flavor variety and potential for monotony reduce long-term enjoyment and adherence.
Body Composition ⓘ
3
Primarily induces water and glycogen loss with minimal fat loss and significant lean mass risk.
3
Severely limits protein intake and energy availability, risking lean mass loss and compromising training performance.
Energy Balance ⓘ
4
Limited calorie control due to restrictive structure and poor satiety, leading to unsustainable energy management.
3
Juice fasting severely restricts calorie control, satiety, and flexibility, leading to unreliable energy management.
Lean Mass ⓘ
2
Severely restricts protein and energy intake, leading to significant muscle catabolism during weight loss.
2
Severely restricts protein and energy intake, leading to significant muscle catabolism during fasting periods.
Athletic Support ⓘ
2
Severely limits energy, macronutrients, and recovery-supporting nutrients critical for athletic performance.
2
Severely limits energy, protein, and fats essential for athletic performance and recovery.
Weight Loss ⓘ
3
Creates a temporary calorie deficit but risks muscle loss, metabolic slowdown, and poor long-term adherence.
5
Provides short-term calorie deficit but lacks sustainability, risks muscle loss, and has limited evidence for long-term fat loss.
