does mono diet has to be the whole day or just 1 meal through a day?

I was experimenting mono dieting during the weekend. I made my first day just by eating grapes but the 2nd feel kind boring. However, I do enjoy the idea by just eating one kind of food. Can I do this on my 3 meals but differnt foods? Like banana for breakfast, kale for lunch and strawberry for dinner?

That is a good way to do it. There is less stress on your digestive system when you eat only one food at each meal.

I tried a mono-eating day a couple of weeks ago. I did bananas for 24 hours. I could not believe how great I felt and how much energy I had. I assume it is because my GI tract got a rest and all that extra energy was mine to have. I started at 4:00 pm the evening before and ended the next day when I had a salad around 6:00 pm. I actually did not feel as well after the salad as I had on bananas. I assume it is because I just put too much in my salad or too much dressing after that break.

I will next probably try it with apples which are great and abundant right now.

Mono eating is a wonderful tool. One can eat single foods.....until full....and just wait for them to leave the stomach...before eating something else. So: eating one thing at a sitting/meal....and then one OTHER thing at the next meal....is certainly fine (in my opinion).

-Of course, mono-eating would be different than a mono-food fast.....where one is just eating grapes or something for 3 days straight. That CAN also be a tool for those who are seeking to detox in a less stressful way.

-Just my opinions.
