I’ve been trying to adhere to it for a year or so. My main point of departure is that I drink a lot of diet soda and beer. My results:
I lost five pounds in the first two months and the weight didn’t come back, despite consuming slightly more calories, and a lot more calories from fat.
It’s easy for me not to graze on simple carbohydrates, because I feel fuller. Regardless of your nutritional philosophy, most of us agree that potato chips and cookies do nothing for you.
I haven’t gotten or given anyone food poisoning or any other indication that my food is too undercooked. Especially for beef and lamb, I strongly suspect that I could eat it raw and be OK. Similarly, but not so much, for eggs, fish, and pork. I still cook the pink out of chicken, but I’m eating much less chicken anyway.
