This is a shockingly limited diet; it is not for the faint of heart. I really wonder how many people can maintain the diet for very long. Certainly, the few food items allowed on the diet are good for you no matter what diet you would be on.
When I was rereading portions of the book, I noticed that it was recommended particularly for folks with cancer. I know an alkaline diet is of benefit to anyone, and I can see someone with cancer dedicating themselves to this. I was surprised by the number of items not allowed in this diet included in the recipes. There are a lot of typos (saying that it takes 0 minutes to prepare and the recipe calling for boiling 40 minutes -- in the body of the recipe). Overall score = G+
