“I have more energy; feeling lighter and better mentally. I see no reason why I cannot keep applying your methods to my daily life.”

Dearest Dr. Cabot,

I hope this email will be read by you as it please me no-end what I have experienced reading your book, The Liver Cleansing Diet. I am sure you receive so many letters from others so I will try to keep this brief.

As a retired man of almost 74, I had not paid much attention to my drinking and over eating, though I was relatively healthy and eat healthily, or so I thought. My BP hit as high as 176/91; 220lbs; and had quite the spare tire belly.

Eight weeks ago my young daughter bought me your book, The Liver Cleansing Diet. A week later I was taking up your scheduled diet regime at which point I had struggled and hovered around 216lbs at best. I had tried other means and pills to loose weight, but all to no avail!

I decided to completely skip breakfasts, I follow your eating menus in a basic approach, that is, I am doing about 70% according to your advice. No more alcohol, drinking much more water, no snacking, and being generally active around the property.

Your menus give enough in one preparation to last me for 4-6 days, and I always have a big salad with the evening meal. I always use your LSA and never use butter or margarine. Instead I use your Hummus recipe.

Well, I am on my 7th week of your plan and the change in me is over the hills. My BP is 136/78; porky belly is shrinking I can fit into much of my previous clothing that was impossible for me to get into. I have more energy; feeling lighter and better mentally. I see no reason why I cannot keep applying your methods to my daily life. I can tweak it to suit my needs and vary it occasionally for the odd meal.

In short, I find your recipes very well measured out, proportion wise; highly nutritious; superior in loosing weight; very enjoyable to eat; and the ideas within your book are quite extraordinary and deeply educational. I never realized how important the organ Liver was to the overall well being of the anatomy! The fat deposits that accumulate within the body in different ways is quite a wake-up call to me; how it can destroy us so much.

To be sure, I have and will, continue to speak of your work and book, and stay focused on what I have learned from you.

With greatest of thanks and kind regards.
