This is the first & only audio CD on the Master Cleanse, also known as The Lemonade Diet. This CD covers the widespread nature of obesity, the body’s method of handling toxins by creating fat cells to store them in, how to do the cleanse, and what pitfalls to avoid. This CD also contains three inspiring live testimonials and makes a great companion to The Master Cleanser, by Stanley Burroughs, or Lose Weight, Have More Energy & Be Happier in 10 Days by Peter Glickman, a leading authority on the Master Cleanse (See “About the Author” below)

Customer Review: Less than Lukewarm
I bought Glickman’s book and CD with the intent to read about the cleanse when I had downtime between appointments, etc. And, I’d listen to the cd during my commute to work, etc. I would not recommend the book. (See my review about the book.). I definitely would not recommend the CD either because it is poorly organized in its presentation of the program. Glickman seems to be in conversation with some guy who sounds like a paid DJ. The information was also repetitive in nature such that I got the impression that Glickman was using up “air time”. However, I give Glickman his “props” for being creative enough to dawn a CD about the cleanse.

Customer Review: More about detox , than weight loss
I’m a big of Ann Gittleman. I have all her Fat Flush books. I think that the information they provide is invaluable. I learned a lot from reading her books. I’ve had success with this book and the Fat Flush Plan. To be honest, I did not lose the weight that I expected to lose from this detox diet. As one reviewer points out, it takes a lot of other factors to help you lose weight. However, the detoxification that I got was worth more than the extra pounds of weight loss. My actual weight loss came from Fat Flush. But, Fast Track helped to make my liver and colon much healthier. On this detox diet, sometimes it was hard for me to find a food within each of her categories that I liked, but I did my best. I liked the Miracle Juice, and it was easy to prepare. I really didn’t think it was that bad. The detox day didn’t affect me in any adverse way. I ate the next day, but I wasn’t ravenous. To anyone who is thinking about purchasing this book, just know in advance that this book will help you in many ways, but it is a very tough 11 days. Just make sure that you’re up to it before you begin. Also know that because it says that you COULD lose up to 8 pounds doesn’t mean that you will. All I can tell you is that I enjoyed this book, and I will use it again to detox. Five stars for detoxification!

The Detox Book: How to Detoxify Your Body to Improve Your Health, Stop Disease, and Reverse Aging, 2nd Edition
Customer Review: Why don’t more people know about this?
This book has a ton of great insights about disease prevention. Doctors rarely, if ever, provide information on prevention because prevention is not profitable for either hospitals or big pharma. If everybody took a little more time to understand how their bodies work, we’d have a lot less disease in our society. Prevention is the key to good health and you truly are what you eat. We can’t expect to fill our bodies with garbage and expect good results.
I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to live a vital, disease-free life. Read the book and buy a copy for someone you love. Don’t rely on doctors to keep you healthy. You can only rely on yourself.
I also highly recommend The Coconut Miracle. If you do nothing else, please introduce coconut oil into your diet and you will see amazing results.

The Rice Diet Solution: The World-Famous Low-Sodium, Good-Carb, Detox Diet for Quick and Lasting Weight Loss
Can you really lose twenty pounds in a month? Will you really keep it off this time? With The Rice Diet Solution, you will! The Rice Diet Program has been helping dieters successfully lose weight since 1939. Now in book form, this world-renowned weight-loss method can help you change the way you eat forever.
The Rice Diet Program in Durham, North Carolina, was one of the first medical facilities in America to use diet as the primary way to treat disease. On this high-complex-carb, low-fat, and low-sodium whole-foods diet, “Ricers” lose weight faster, more safely, and more effectively than people on any other diet. Men lose on average twenty-eight to thirty pounds and women on average nineteen to twenty pounds per month! The Rice Diet also detoxes your body, ridding it of excess water weight and toxins from processed foods and the environment. The program’s results have been documented by extensive studies and confirmed by thousands of people who report amazing weight loss, as well as immediate improve-ment in such conditions as heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension. After all the other diets out there have failed them, people find that the Rice Diet is the one that finally works — for good.
Here’s how it works: The Rice Diet strictly limits salt and sodium-rich ingredients. Salt, like refined sugar, is an appetite stimulant, so when you reduce salt intake, you lose water weight and are less inclined to overeat. The Rice Diet also limits saturated fats and instead relies on carbohydrates (fruits, vegetables, grains, and beans) as the main source of nutrition. The fiber cleanses your system and satisfies you so you feel full quickly. The Rice Diet makes it easy to limit calories; when you’re eating foods that truly satisfy your hunger, it’s a challenge to eat 1,500 calories per day!
To make it easy to follow the program, The Rice Diet Solution includes hundreds of tasty, filling, easy-to-prepare recipes — some from the Rice House kitchen, others inspired by major chefs and adapted to Rice Diet standards.
The Rice Diet is not just an eating plan. It’s a physical, emotional, and spiritual program that will change the way you live, giving you new vitality, energy, and longevity. Ricers report that the Rice Diet not only helps them solve weight problems they’ve struggled with their whole lives but also teaches them a whole new way of healthier, more mindful living.
Whether you want to lose twenty pounds or two hundred, the Rice Diet can help you do it — finally and forever.
RAPID WEIGHT LOSS: The average “Ricer” loses up to thirty pounds in the first month!
LONG-TERM SUCCESS: 63 percent of people who have lost weight on the Rice Diet report weighing the same or less one year later.
MEDICALLY SOUND: The Rice Diet Program is run by Duke University-trained M.D.s (a cardiologist and an endocrinologist) with more than thirty years of medical experience using diet as the primary treatment for long-term weight loss and disease reversal.
SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN: Numerous scientific publications, including the American Journal of Medicine, have documented the diet’s dramatic effects on such life-threatening illnesses as congestive heart failure and heart disease and its risk factors: diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and obesity.
HOLISTIC APPROACH: The Rice Diet Solution helps you examine root causes of health issues and empowers you to create the life you really desire. With practical, easy-to-follow instructions, you can personalize your own practice by integrating meditation, yoga, journalizing, and even quantum physics.
THE INSIDE SCOOP: A stay at the Rice Diet Program in Durham, North Carolina, costs participants thousands of dollars. Now, for just the cost of this book, you can have all the tips, recipes, and advice you’ll need to lose that weight and keep it off — for good!
Customer Review: “It’s not what’s in the rice, it’s what’s not in the rice”
Maddening.
This is a low-sodium, low-fat diet plan, that includes less red meat, more fruits and vegetables, more complex carbs, exercise, maintenance follow-ups, and stress reducing exercises. The first week results in low calorie consumption, less than 1500 calories a day. Between exercise and this 1500 cal/day diet, you WILL lose weight, guaranteed.
Founder Walter Kemper found “…it was almost impossible for [his patients] not to lose weight following the diet [of rice and fruit]” (p. 9). BTW, this is the reason it is called the “Rice Diet” as opposed to the Duke Diet, the Kemper Diet, or the Rosati Diet. He also said, “It’s not what’s in the rice, it’s what’s not in the rice.”
So how does the Rice Diet work? There are three steps:
1. Diet in the following manner:
a. 1 week of grains, fruits, and veggies. This is the detox period, with 1000-1200 calories/day.
b. keep the same diet, but add some non-fat dairy, and you get animal protein once a week.
c. Maintenance while you add more foods.
2. Be a mindful eater. Pay attention to what you put in your mouth, and how you cook.
3. Find supportive people or groups, and surround yourself with them.
I’m irritated by the discussion of “detoxing.” They note, “The overall goal of Phase One is to cleanse and detox your body’s system of excess water weight… excess sodium, [and] allergic-like symptoms from a range of potential offenders from our food supply (e.g., pesticides, fertilizers, antibiotic and growth hormone does animal products, and others” (p. 31). In addition, “How does the Rice Diet detox the body?… This is probably an impossible aspect to actually quantify or prove but many signs of detoxification occur” (p. 58). Let me repeat that, “This is probably an impossible aspect to actually quantify or prove…” Then why is this coming from a physician and a RD?
Still, except for this “pop-nutrition”, everything makes sense. Eat less meat, more fruits and veggies, more whole grains, less sugar, low-fat, high fiber, and exercise.
The book has more. It includes recipes and product suggestions. Some of these product suggestions seem way too specific: Yogurt? “Stonyfield Farm is best” (p. 49). For bread, try “Galliee Splendor Bible Bread” (p. 44).
I did try a recipe last night. The Bouillabaisse recipe on page 250 caught my attention. I couldn’t get my hands on any fresh fennel, and I thought 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of saffron was a bit much (have you seen the price of this spice?). I used fresh bay leaves instead of dried, I chopped the cloves (the recipe didn’t specify), and given that I didn’t have 2 1/2 cups of “hot fish stock” on hand, I used an 8 oz bottle of clam juice and another 12 oz of water (this also dilutes the salt in the clam juice). I mixed and matched my seafood with what was available… a pound of size 31-40 shrimp, a pound of Alaska salmon, a half pound of tilapia, a can of packed crab (no salt), and 8 oz of fresh mushrooms.
It was delicious. I served it on hot rice, in honor of the Rice Diet. MIne served 6, not 10.
Most of the recipes seemed fairly complicated. They definitely are not fast food. They are also a bit pricey, not an impossible situation, but one to be aware of.
But the Bouillabaisse was so delicious!
So the Rice Diet didn’t seem to have any fatal flaws. It had a few pop-nutrition issues, and I really didn’t like the gummy bear story. You will lose weight if you eat 1500 calories a week. You have to find a way to maintain your healthy weight when you readjust your calories to 1800-2000 calories. You should always exercise.
Be well.

The Great American Detox Diet: 8 Weeks to Weight Loss and Well-Being
Here, in response to all the requests, is the detox program that undid the damage Morgan Spurlock-director and star of Super Size Me-did to his body in a month of gorging on nothing but McDonald’s What would happen if you ate nothing but fast food for an entire month? That’s what filmmaker Morgan Spurlock attempted to find out by making his scathing tongue-in-cheek documentary Super Size Me. A 33-year-old New Yorker in excellent health, he would eat nothing but McDonald’s for 30 days, to gauge the effects on his body. The results were shocking: He gained almost 30 pounds, saw his cholesterol skyrocket, and developed chest pains and dangerously high blood pressure.
Customer Review: Best Diet Book I Ever Read
Non-preachy. Personal. Great recipes. This is the book that finally got me to change the way I eat. It’s not a diet book really — it’s a lifestyle change primer. I lost 25 lbs. in 6 months. No crazy dieting.
