Wow, this is HARSH. I'd have to have an iron will to stick to this... or be on my deathbed. And that wouldn't have been the case for study participants because confounding illnesses were excluded. Give the successful study participants a gold medal.
This is from the Word doc in Appendix A. I neglected to include in the screencaps that they also had fiber, vitamin and mineral supplements, plus 2 L water.
Phase 1: Basically Keto-Opti-Fast
Phase 2: We know you're dying for a pizza and french fries so here's some skinless chicken breast and eggs
Phase 3: How you could have done it all along without the high risk of burnout
One of the things that irked me was their recommendation to choose white meat over red. Where the heck were they getting iron? Just from the supplements?
My personal conclusion: if you're going to do 12 weeks of Kimkins, make sure you're being monitored by medical staff. And you might want to look into some nice hats, head scarves and head bands for when your hair falls out a month later.
