| "If someone doesn't comment within two weeks on how great you're looking - then you're cheating." - Dr Joshi. Dr Joshi's craving-free detox attracts stars and supermodels from all over the world to his Wimpole Street clinic. Now, in his first book, Dr Joshi will reveal the secret of his metabolic detox dieting plan and explain how it has transformed the lives and health of celebrities such as Kate Moss, Gwyneth Paltrow and Ralph Fiennes. Based on avoiding foods that are refined, acidic and toxic such as wheat, potatoes, red meat, alcohol and dairy produce, the idea is to alter the PH balance of the body from acid to alkaline - flushing toxins from the system, restoring energy levels and losing weight. It is also about 'cutting down' on certain foods rather than 'cutting out', and changing your palate so you will actually dislike the taste of those foods which are bad for you, so preventing cravings. By following Joshi's intensive three-week programme and three-week maintenance course any one of us can shake off the strain of a high-pressure life and get the body and energy-levels we've always dreamed of. |

That is not an exaggeration. I read this book somewhat skeptically, thinking, Oh, c'mon, another bloody fad endorsed by Gwyneth Paltrow, for heaven's sake. However, after I'd started to read, I found a great deal of sense in what Dr. Joshi says. And I started to detox. I have been on for 26 days now and have lost somewhere around 16 pounds. Amazing. Even more amazing is the way my skin looks, the amount of energy I feel and, for the very first time, the fact that I am no longer suffering extreme PMS.
It's easy to get into the detox plan. However, a big warning here: MOST people get sick on the 2nd or 3rd day of the detox: it's the toxins leaving our bodies. I had a migraine, nausea and exhaustion. Once it left, I started feeling fantastic.
Try this programme. It will really change the way you see your relationship with food and also with your body. |
Healthy,slimming, for life!

| This book is comprehensive, excellent advice to follow. I did it for three weeks, lost 9 lbs, and feel great. I am wanting to continue to follow the principles, do not find them difficult at all, cause there is so much other stuff to eat. I am convinced the no sugar, no wheat, has given me a painfree body, full of energy, and life! I am going to stick to it as much as possible, for life it feels so good! |
Lost 30lbs and counting....

| I wast 172lbs (my heaviest ever) last August and I've lost 30 lbs in the past six months and am down to 142lbs. This book was an easy read and very helpful in getting me on the right track to eating right. I've sent three people to Dr. Joshi and all have lost no less than 20 lbs each. I have given this book to countless other friends who can't get to Dr. Joshi and all loved the book. I recommend it to anyone who needs a clear guide in eating right. |
Liked it, didn't love it!

I went on this detox with very high expectations. Everyone has a different experience on detoxes because we are all so very different. I lost 5 pounds in the 21 days which I am glad for, but I was hoping to lose more. I experienced more detox symptoms on this program than on any other detox (and I have done many!) I have ever been on. I literally felt and saw toxins leaving my body. No, I did not feel great during this regime at all. I could see and feel a film all over my face and body as I was literally emitting toxins through my pores.
I do feel lighter inside and out after following this program. Honestly though I felt the best when I finally went off the program and ate some berries and citrus fruit. I felt like my body was screaming for them. I attribute my worst day to my own fault as the night before (9 days in) I ate some pasta with regrets. But I quickly returned to the regime and was fine. I DO feel like my palate has changed and found myself eating Salmon and greens (by choice) the day after I ended the program.Joshi's Holistic Detox I give this detox 5 stars because although I only lost 5 pounds, this is not a diet it's a detox program and my body definitely detoxed! |
It works, it works , it truly works

| First of all, this is the first time that i am compelled to write a review. I have been on this detox for about 17 days now and i have lost about 12 pounds. I was looking into detox diets 18 days ago with an intention of finding something that could help me build discipline again that i had couple years ago. I have always believed in healthy way of getting in shape and i know that there are no shortcuts and i don't even want them because i love the energy part that it brings along. I stumbled over Dr joshi's Detox diet on google where it listed- things to eat and things to avoid list. I simply started following it the following day and placed an order for this book the 2nd week because i couldn't understand why he wouldn't allow nuts,fruits (except bananas),tomatoes and lemons, etc in this detox. But the book took quite some time to get delievered, i just received it couple days ago. I have read almost all of it and the explanation he gives makes a lot of sense. And, now i am a living proof that it works. I just wanted to get disciplined again but it came with shedding few pounds and who would ever mind that. I am going to get married this coming july'09 and i am convinced to continue this longer than just 21 days to loose more pounds. It has not been hard for me at all finding the foods that one can eat on this detox diet. I am very happy that i chose to do this detox and will always take the info that i have gotten from this book and experience for rest of my life. I sure did incorporate some excercise like walking, running, jumping on the trampoline (It is an excellent way for your body to get rid of toxins and easy on your joints. Also, a lot of fun when you dance away your pounds listening to your favourite music.), yoga and stretching. Also, coconut water is an amazing thing. Try it, you will see what i am talking about. By the way, here is the link to how i first got started on this detox programme. I also stumbled over some of the Rawfood diet books (Rawsome, and living cuisine) while doing this detox and i intend on incorporating some of it in my diet after i am off this detox. However, i have no intentions of going totally raw but you never know. You can start the way i did, i just simply followed the rules from this link http://teamsugar.com/group/43626/blog/43933 and, later if you want like i did go ahead and order this book. Good health is a true happiness and i have started to savour it once again in my life. Sorry for writting such a long review but i was compelled to. Go for it...... |
