In order to determine how the foods we eat affect the way we feel, I recommend that you take my 21 day diet trial.
If you have medical problems, please consult a professional before beginning.

Let me warn you up front that this trial will not work unless you are diligent about making ALL of these changes strictly for the entire 21 days as I have outlined on the back of this page.

You must not make just some of the changes or eliminate some of the foods. You must not cheat. Adjust a little. I suggest that you tell yourself---

This is only for 21 days and I really want to see if I feel any different, if my children behave differently, and if anyone is diabetic, how well their blood sugar is regulated when certain foods are eliminated from our diets. (You don’t want to have to start over so be strict)
Check your blood sugar frequently if diabetic.

Remember that although moderation is okay for many things, toxic foods can affect us even in small quantities so for this test to work, you must do it right.

If you feel that you could not eat this way even for just 21 days, then I feel sorry for you since it means that society has turned you into a convenience food junkie.

Many of my patients have felt so many beneficial changes after just 21 days that they could not believe how much food has been affecting their life and the lives of their children.

Remember, you are not really going on a diet; you are simply eating a great deal healthier for 3 short weeks.

I would wish you good luck, but luck has nothing to do with it. If you truly care about your health or the health of your children, 21 days of a strict eating plan is not that difficult and is generally well worth the effort.

Try to drink 2 quarts of filtered water each day, mostly between meals (less for a child).
Eat adequate amounts of the allowed foods - do NOT go hungry!
Don't forget to eat some animal protein at 2 - 3 meals (preferable at every meal) and load up on the non starchy vegetables.
If a food is not on the Allowed list, DON'T EAT IT!

So plan your food carefully. be sure that you are not eating any packaged or canned foods since they all have added ingredients that are not allowed.You can NEVER be sure what is or is not in any restaurant food no matter what they waiter/waitress tells you.
