Plenty of salads with unrestricted favorite dressing are allowed. There are some items, such as baked potato, all varieties of breads, sweets, pasta, carbohydrate rich or starchy foods are restricted. All kind of processed food is also not allowed because they contain plenty of carbohydrates.

It has been found that the egg diet helps in weight loss. Some individuals have successfully achieved their desired weight lost by pursuing the Egg Diet. However, besides achievement there are some grave exceptional health issues related to this high protein diets.
