Philosophy Behind the Plan• We crave what we are most intolerant to.• Intolerant foods cause gut inflammation

which leak out into the rest of the body– Cause an auto-immune response

• Food intolerance is not fixed and is correctable

• IgG reaction (slower, food-sensitivity)

Foods to Avoid

• Gluten—30-40% intolerant, maybe as much as 70%– Lectins-binds to insulin receptors– Phytates-makes minerals bio-unavailable

• Dairy—promotes insulin resistance, acne, and bone depletion– The more processed the worse it is, antibiotics, hormones

• Soy—new to the human diet– Disrupts hormones as a phyto-estrogen– Impairs thyroid function– Genetically modified– Overly processed– Asian food as a condiment and fermented

• Corn—pro-inflammatory/high-glycemic/not a vegetable– One of the most genetically modified– Host to 22 different fungi– High in lectins– Symptoms: hives, rashes, migraines, joint pain, mood

disorders, temporary depression, insomnia, eczema, fatigue, hyperactivity in children, night sweats, dark circles around the eyes, repeated ear infections, UTI, sinus

– Corn starch, corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, corn oil

• Eggs– White part is the allergen– Might be more of what they are fed

• Peanuts-legume– Aflatoxin (mold)—toxic.– Peanut oil-atherogenic (arterial plaque)– High in phytic acid and lectins

• Sugar-140lb/year– Insulin metabolism disruptor– Increase yeast production– Feeds bacteria– Dampens immune function– Artificial sugar worse than natural

Gluten Alternatives

• Gluten free flours– All-purpose (ArrowMills/Trader Joe’s)– Mungbean– Almond meal/flour– Garbanzo bean flour– Brown Rice flour

Dairy Alternatives

• Milk– Coconut, Almond, Rice, Hemp

• Daiya– Non Dairy cheese

• Ghee– Clarified Butter

• Coconut Oil

Sugar Alternatives

• Stevia• Maple Syrup• Dark Chocolate (70% or higher)• Agave• All must be used in small amounts and not at

all first three weeks

How to Begin

• Week One—7lbs in 7 days– 2 meals/day with Virgin shake– Snack should be small handful of raw nuts and/or fruit– Third meal should be ¼ lean meat, ¼ healthy fats, 1/8

high fiber, low-glycemic carbs, rest nonstarchy vegetables

– Meats should be wild, organic, free-range and grass fed• Will crave what intolerant to most• Recommend sweet squashes and sweet potatoes

(especially chips) to survive sugar loss

Water

• 10% of your body weight. • Keep it with you at all times• Less from a bottle• Best to not drink when eating and drink 1 hour

before you eat.• Adding flavoring with the exception of real

fruit makes it no longer water.

• Week Two & Three– One shake for breakfast– Snack if needed

• Nuts

– Lunch• Salad is great• Protein from night before• Pumpkin seed/sunflower seed• Balsamic vinegrette

– Snack if needed• Apple (sunflower seed butter)

– Trader Joe’s

– Same dinner as week 1
