Tandem401 asked this question about The Plant Paradox: The Hidden Dangers in "Healthy" Foods That Cause Disease and Weight Gain:
I am reading this book now. I am impressed by the apparent answers to many of the digestive problems that plague me! However, many questions I seek are not found in the text. For instance: Do the implied cures of Lupus say that most Auto Immune Diseases can be cured with the diet? What about Alopecia? Is there a pre-packaged "Green Smoothie" product on the market. Is avoiding Lectin the the key to success?

Hair loss and thinning are mentioned. Pre-packaged green smoothie? Yes. at catalystcuisine.com whose owner developed the recipes for the program. But the smoothie is 14.99 for three servings. I plan to do this program but I won't be getting those. I will make my own. In fact, you don't have to use the recipes, you can just pick your foods from the "Yes,Please" lists. Avoiding Lectin the key to success? All lectins are not equal. From what I read those in some plants are helpful. I would say try out the diet for 6 weeks and see if it helps you. That's what I am going to do. If it helps I will stay with it. It has helped many, many people already. I've read lots of positive comments on it on various websites. (less)
