How much cabbage soup is enough on the miracle cabbage soup diet?
Although Dr. Rolls did not specifically test the miracle cabbage soup diet, she tested the volume of soup needed to make a difference on your appetite in clinical trials with over 10,000 volunteers. A cup (240 ml) of soup is enough to make a difference, although bowl containing two cups (480 ml) of soup is better. The soup can be pieces of vegetables floating in broth, or it can be a puree of vegetables floating in broth, or it can be a mixture of smooth and chunky vegetables. This means the miracle cabbage soup diet can use big pieces of cabbage, little pieces of cabbage, or pureed cabbage. All three reduce calorie consumption from 20 to 26 per cent. And if you reduce your calorie consumption by 20 to 26 per cent without changing anything except starting your meals with soup, you will lose two, three, or even four pounds a week effortlessly. And you can keep on losing after the first week on the miracle cabbage soup diet.
