Authored by Jordan Rubin, an alternative nutritionist and Messianic Jew, it prescribes a 40-day program of unprocessed, organic food. Followers must obey strict eating rules set forth in Leviticus and Deuteronomy. Unclean swine and shellfish are out, but carbs are definitely allowed.
Rubin, 28, claims he came up with the diet after trying countless treatments for the debilitating Crohn's disease. He says most people "lose an average of 10 to 15 pounds in the first 40 days." But medical experts have been quick to puncture the almighty hype about the book.

This is no miracle, just yet another example of what happens when you put aside the traditional overprocessed american diet. You loose weight and you feel better |
