This book is fatally (for me) flawed. It begins with a strict 3 day diet, but the lists of approved foods and the foods used in the recipes for the 3 days are not identical. I had three choices: Follow the list and possibly be depriving myself of a food I should be eating, follow the recipes and possibly be sabotaging myself, or toss the book back in the return bin.

The editing was also very poor and this is not one to get as an ebook as you must constantly flip back & forth.

I did try it, following the list for foods. I gave up on day 4 feeling exceedingly fatigued. According to the book, I should have been feeling wonderful.

I noticed that many of the 5 and 4 star reviews elsewhere were synopses and didn’t mention any of the above nor did they indicate if they actually tried the detox. I wonder how many were real?… (meer)
