I have never looked at it thoroughly but I am guessing it uses high fats/protein and low carbs to put your body into a Ketonic state and the uses a carb ramp to trigger an insulin spike. If this is the case, then I wouldn't reccommend it at all. IMO you would do alot better for yourself moderating your carbs like Achilles said in order to provide for your body the neccessarry fuel. Personally, I don't like these diets at all, it's kinda like the Atkins diet, or maybe it's the South Beach diet, either way it is no good. Besides putting your body into a Ketonic state makes your breath smell absolutely foul:blink:
