The following is a trial diet designed to help recalibrate the body’s sugar control mechanisms. It increases energy and 
vitality when followed closely. This diet may not be a healthy diet over a long term, but it is beneficial during a trial period. As physical symptoms improve, foods may be added back into the diet. This way of eating takes planning, but is well worth the effort. Most people will lose their cravings for unhealthy foods within one or two weeks. Many are pleased to experience weight loss without feeling hungry or deprived. Those who need to gain weight often find weight return without undue effort. Eat small amounts of food every two hours. Between meals, a small amount of nuts, or one half of an apple, is enough. No processed or packaged foods are allowed. Patients should eat only whole foods as they are found in nature.
PROTEIN
Each meal should include a minimum of 4 to 6 ounces of protein. Eat as much as you desire. Meat, poultry, fish, and eggs are unlimited. Consider a protein shake as a quick easy meal. (this is for the main meals: breakfast, lunch, and dinner)
