The reason behind prescribing vegetables on Day- 2 is to neutralize the high amounts of sugars acquired from the fruit diet on Day 1. Also, on Day 1, your body has a deficit of carbohydrates which will be fulfilled on the 2nd day. The dietary fiber from vegetables can speed up the digestion process and improve the functionality of your gastrointestinal tract.
