Hmm, I don't think so ..

I've ordered the book, but may be a few weeks getting here. In the meantime .. The program is not anti-saturated fat. They do focus on monounsaturates and encourage reduction in POLYunsaturates. Lean meats. poultry with skin, whole eggs, full fat dairy are allowed and encouraged. It's not like South Beach, which restricts saturated fat.

The program encourages 50% of fat from monos. If you think about it, that's biologically appropriate -- Most animal fat - beef, pork, poultry - is approx. 50% monos, and 45% saturates. .. here are some sample food lists
