very helpful indeed. Although he punts all his products the diet is yummy and easy to follow. Loads of helpful advise. Now to just find the 9 open days in my diary ....

[Andreea-Cristina · Rating 3 out of 5]

Pretty clear except for the recipes that are somehow complicated. I will follow the main ideas of the 9 day detox, but I am not comfortable with the recipes. For example, I don’t agree with mixing fruits.
But that’s just my opinion.

Food for thought, body, mind and soul

Exactly what I needed. Simple advice, and a powerful message to look after myself better for now and the future. A must read for those looking for a proper guide on detoxification, and a health-oriented mind.

This is a quick, informative step by step approach that I want to try.

If you ignore the fact that there’s some pseudoscience, it is a wonderful book of easy tasty recipes that make you feel 1000 times better.

كتيب مختصر يساعد في تنظيف الجسم من السموم. وفبه بعض المعلومات التي اختلف فيها مع الكاتب. عموما التغذية الصحية لها عدة مدارس، كل يختار ما يوافقه.

كان كتاب حلو بصراحة و نصايحه إلى حد ما سهل تنفيذها رغم إن في بعض الخضراوات و الفاكهة اللي كانت في الكتاب مش موجودة أصلاً في بلدنا. و بردو حتة انه عايزنا ناخد مكملات غذائية انا حسيت ان لو انا بعمل ديتوكس فعلاً، المفروض انها تبقى كلها من الطبيعة مش جزء منها من الصيدلية. انا متبعتش الوصفات بصراحة لسه بس النصائح عموماً اه، ساعدتني جداً و فرقت معايا.
