Liquid diets can have some real drawbacks

Back in the 1970s, liquid diets were "hot" - liquid meal replacements and diet shakes had just entered our lexicon. Today, with the popularity of juicing, new coffee and tea beverages, sports and energy drinks, enriched waters and smoothies, liquids are hotter than ever.

Some liquid supplements and juices may be an effective way to increase your daily nutrient intake, but studies indicate consuming an increased volume of liquid calories may be counterproductive for health.

It's been documented sugar-sweetened beverages, including sodas and artificially flavored "fruit" drinks - rich in calories through readily absorbable sugars - may contribute to chronic diseases. A 2010 study published in Diabetes Care found regular consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages is associated with an increased risk for type 2 diabetes and weight gain.

Sodas and "fruit" drinks are well known culprits for added calories, but many other beverages, such as smoothies and sports drinks, also can add calories to your daily intake without contributing much to satiety. In fact, a 2008 review published in Obesity Review suggests fluid calories are not recognized by the body in the same way solid foods are.

Consuming liquid calories does little to suppress ghrelin - the body's hunger-stimulating hormone - as effectively as consuming solid foods. This means you may feel hungry even after you've finished a high-calorie smoothie, juice, or milkshake. Typically, people don't compensate for those extra calories from their beverage by reducing their intake of food, resulting in more calories consumed.

This was the case in the Nurses' Health Study, which followed more than 50,000 women for eight years.

The study found women who reduced their intake of sugar-sweetened beverages cut their daily caloric intake by an average of 319 calories. Other female participants who increased their intake of such beverages from one per week to one or more per day ended up consuming an extra 358 calories each day.

Your best bet is to steer clear of liquid calories and stick to water and other zero-calorie beverages, such as plain coffee or tea. It may be a better idea to focus on solid foods, such as whole fruit, over their liquid, juice form. You'll end up more satisfied and less likely to overeat throughout the day.

1)        Have you ever been on a diet?

2)        Do you think people who go on diets get the proper nutrition their body needs?

3)        Do you think the fashion industry and advertising is responsible for encouraging women to be super skinny?

4)        Are you happy with your weight and body shape?

5)        How important is exercising as part of a diet?

6)        Do people in your country eat a well-balanced diet?

7)        How often do you weigh yourself?
