The reducing diet of bananas the and skimmed milk Johns Hopkins diet is one of the better diets, but is safe for a short time only. Normally healthy persons can safely try this diet for 10 days or so, but no longer if they want to avoid vitamin deficiencies. Whatever your reducing diet, remember that to be safe for your health, it must keep a proper balance of protein, minerals, and vitamins.
