Product Description

Review
'Within just four days my weight had dipped effortlessly.' Barbara Griggs, Vogue'I am sure that today I couldn't cope with the work I do without the diet.' Sir John Mills'How to lose weight without really dieting' Anthea Hall, Sunday Telegraph

Product Description
A fresh new feel for this international best-selling guide to how the Hay diet (food combining) can improve health and vitality. With over one million copies sold worldwide, this is the ultimate guide to the health benefits of food combining from two of the most respected authors in the field, freshened up to attract a new, contemporary audience. A fresh new cover design, more modern look and updated text bring this classic guide to food combining up to date for the 21st century. This is THE classic guide to the health benefits of the Hay Diet, or food combining, from Doris Grant, a pioneer for the Hay Diet in the UK. The diet works by keeping starch foods separate from protein foods in the daily diet so foods can be digested more easily and general health is improved. This informative guide gives you an in-depth look at the wide range of health problems that food combining has been found to alleviate, including; digestive disorders such as IBS and indigestion; obesity; ulcers; arthritic pain; persistent migraines and headaches; skin problems such as psoriasis and eczema. As well as practical advice on how to begin and then stick to the food combining system, this comprehensive book offers plenty of suggestions and over 90 recipes to show you how easy it is to stick to the plan.

5.0 out of 5 stars 'Does exactly what it says on the tin', 20 Mar 2000
I followed the advice from day one. Gradually changing from habit to common sense; to such an extent it felt as I was spoiling myself. The feeling of well being was immediate and allergies showed signs of disappearing within a few days. And for the first time in 51 years my hay fever did not bother me, at all. I have suffered badly from the age of eleven. I'm not a crank. Engineers aren't cranks they are realists. Thoroughly recommended aloing with the Kathryn Marsden book.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you ever thought 'there must be another way', this is it!, 14 Dec 1998
By A Customer
Having been recently discharged from hospital with a diagnosis of 'severe diverticular disease of the sigmoid colon' (UUmmm, nasty!) my GP told me to eat more fibre and increase fruit intake. Not being content with just following orders I started to think seriously about what I was eating on a daily basis. A friend had a well worn copy of this book and lent it to me. Within days of starting to follow the basic principles of food combining I was feeling much better and generally more energetic all round. The book gives you an explanation as to why the food that most of us eat is not allowing the body to use its own restorative powers and then goes on to suggest how you can change that. As a by-product I have lost a stone and a quarter in the last 4 weeks (this was not actually part of my original aim) and am feeling better than ever before. The recommended food intake section is invaluable for beginners as it allows you to start eating properly without having to understand (initially) why it works.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have for a healthy mind and body, 31 Aug 2000
After just 3 weeks I have lost a stone in weight despite enjoying rugby player quantities of beer and wine. I feel energetic throughout the day - no more mid-afternoon lulls or chocolate cravings. You basically eat the same foods but in slightly different combinations...and cut out all the processed c**p.
