I was actually just now browsing the info. at iVillage.com about the FFP, and one of the questions there addressed the suitability of the plan for men. Ms Gittleman replied that men will require more friendly carbs, and higher protein amounts. The complete response is here.
I'm going to (try to) get my own copy of the book today But, from the reviews I'm reading, not only does the flush address women's water retention issues, but also fatty acid and protein deficiencies. So many women have been slavishly eating lowFAT foods for decades, fake ultra-light dressings, fat-free dairy, fatless meats ... and only tiny amounts of those. Our cells are holding onto the water while at the same time crying out for FAT.
Thanks for the great review Jenny I'm looking forward to reading the book.
