The Fast Track One-Day Detox Diet

Book Review

   by:VivienneGreenwych    
Original Author: Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., C.N.S.
The Fast Track One-Day Detox Diet is one of the few diet books that is easy to read, the nutrition advice is easy to follow and the diet itself actually works.  Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., C.N.S has done her homework and has given the public a diet that is actually healthy rather than what is currently available.      Dr. Gittleman uses an easy and free flowing style that many readers will find comfortable to follow.  She begins by asking the question that most people today are searching to answer.  Can someone lose 5 or more pounds in a single day?  She goes on to discuss how it is possible to lose that amount of weight safely and quickly.  She shows how the connection between weight gain and toxins are a problem that is easily overcome with her diet.      The book shows how the various low carb diets that everyone has been trying out the past few years have been failures and  unhealthy ones for most people.  Dr. Gittleman goes on to explain how riding the body of built up toxins through fasting is important.  She also explains how most fasts are harsh on the body and usually cause various types of distress.  Most people don’t want to have to deal with these symptoms and therefore don’t try them.      Dr. Gittleman’s books explains how a person needs to prepare their body for a one day fast through proper feeding and for how long.  She also explains how the one day juice fast can be tolerated and not suffered through.  The problem most people have with fasts is that they jump right back into their same old habits and the body goes into stress mode - and the results are lost.  Her book shows the importance of the three phases of the fast and how to keep the results of weight loss and inches lost.      The recipes and food charts are easy to understand and follow.  Dr. Gittleman also gives alternatives to the various foods that she lists for the Detox diet.  Giving people a healthy alternative to the crazy diets out there is Dr. Gittleman’s main goal.  Her book takes the reader from start to finish and even gives alternative therapies.   If taken as a life style change the average person should be able to loose weight, feel healthier, and maintain a higher metabolism that will continue to help keep the extra weight off.
