Ok, so let me get this straight, you are NOT fat, you are CONSTIPATED. You are constipated because of all of the chemicals you have been eating in cooked foods. You must eat raw foods to lose weight and untoxify yourself.
Ok, so I am going to eat raw foods and I will lose weight. Hmm what about the foods that your body can’t digest unless its cooked? So that means I’m only cutting in at around half the calories and nutrients i was taking in before.
So now I am going to lose weight because im eating half the calories and half the nutrients that my body needs to function properly which includes burning fat.
So, ok my metabolism has almost completley shutdown due to lack of nutrients and energy, my body is breaking down muscle protein to use as energy because it is starving and now i could possibly suffer from malnutrition because my body isn’t getting all of the nutrients it needs to funciton properly because it cant digest some of the raw foods.
Now what part of this diet makes any sense at all?
I mean it has no real evidence that eating raw foods benifits you in any “real” way and it has no scientific backing at all.
So I ask you, is it really worth it?

This book’s writing is a bit confusing. It talks about many things, but not very much about weight loss.

This book is great and provides great insight to the world of natural foods. However, if you are some fatty that’s been living on the Standard American Diet (SAD) and have made no serious attempts at eating healthy, this book maybe too much for you to handle. That is my one complaint about this book. Ms. Rose makes everything too rosey. There are a lot of people who would die just thinking about this diet. Literally! They would just keal over and die. I know some of these people. They’re digusting. However, I lost four pounds in three days, so it works for me but I’ve been eating fairly healthy for the past five years. I wouldn’t be able to do it if I had still been eating burgers and “Diet” Cokes. Anyway, good book but not definitely not for everyone, especially those in the midwest.

I paid extra money to have this book shipped to me quickly and it did not arrive early enough to match the amount extra I paid. Tried 2 or 3 times to contact the people selling it, they never did e-mail me back. This is the 3-4 time that I’ve written something negative about the experience and I still have not heard anything from anybody ! I gave a one star but if I could go back and take the star off I would !!!
