As a doctor...
"If I had a drug that could do these things,
with no adverse effects,
I would put every patient on it.
It just doesn't exist
...but the diet did it"
Diet allowed: ad libitum intake of food...
-no calorie counting
-no carbohydrate counting
-no medications
-eat freely...everything got better
