Conclusion

The diet will help you lose weight, but that is just because anyone who cuts out all of that sugar will lose weight. From what we have read, the average caloric intake for anyone doing the Sugar Busters diet was 1200 calories per day. At this rate, anyone will lose weight. Those who watch their carbohydrates will likely have more energy and less food cravings, but for the first few days on this diet, you will likely feel intense cravings. The fact that the diet is not customizable will make it hard for most people. At any rate, any diet should be balanced and include a healthy exercise routine with plenty of water for weight loss, and healthy weight loss, to occur.
