The 3-Hour Diet™

Established by Jorge Cruise in 1998 on the Oprah Winfrey Show, the 3-Hour Diet plan has skyrocketed in popularity. Through books, videos, New York Times Bestseller List, and periodicals to numerous to mention, this plan is an unqualified hit. It encompasses eating every three hours. That’s right – every 3 hours. Here’s how it works.

With the 3-Hour Diet at Home program, you receive 3 meals, 2 snacks, and a treat every day. At $19.95 per day, this can be expensive. However, each menu is designed to afford you a variety of healthy meals especially if you are busy and constantly on the go.

Based on a 4-week plan, you can expect to lose up to 2 pounds per week. The meals are freshly cooked and delivered right to your door. According to Jorge Cruise, “on average our new clients lose up to 10 pounds in the first 2 weeks. With our diet you will be eating the right foods every 3 hours and not feel hungry. Why? You will keep your blood sugar level stable and thus keep your appetite and weight under control.”

According to the 3-Hour diet plan research results, “What happens if you wait more than 3 hours to eat?  Well, after 3 hours your body passes a tipping point and signals your body to launch its natural “starvation protection mechanism” or your SPM. When your SPM is switched on, your body preserves the most calorie-rich tissue in the body to ensure your survival. That tissue is body fat.   Any time you allow more than 3 hours to pass without eating,  your body not only preserves body fat, but worst of all it begins to eat precious fat-burning muscle.  Why is losing lean muscle devastating to your health? Lean muscle tissue is your metabolism. Bottom line, muscle burns fat and thus will set your metabolism in motion.” 

Thus, the 3-Hour Diet plan was formed to counteract losing muscle versus fat. This plan is quite unique, although expensive. It costs $5.00 to join in addition to the cost of meals per day.
