The criticisms of this program is that it lacks scientific backing. I don’t find that to be a concern; this is not a diet plan where you are taking pills or steered into unhealthy eating. You make as much or as little change to your diet to lose weight, gain energy and feel good. You will not be hungry on the Fit For Life program.

I have incorporated many of the suggestions in this book into my diet and occasionally still refer back to it as a reference.

to detoxify your body, menus for healthy vegetarian meals, eating fruit properly. The only thing I find missing in the menus is grains, so I add them. This diet comes so naturally and is so easy to adopt. You learn to make choices and love the right kinds of food. It's that easy. Show Less
