Product Description

In his New York Times bestselling book, Ultra Metabolism, Dr. Mark Hyman unveiled his groundbreaking but simple plan for automatic weight loss. Never before had all seven keys to permanent weight loss been integrated into a single plan. Based on the cutting-edge science of nutrigenomics-the science of how food talks to our genes-Ultra Metabolism promises to reprogram your body to automatically lose weight by turning on the messages of weight loss and health and turning off the messages of weight gain and disease. Now, for the first time in The Ultra Quick Diet, Dr. Hyman reveals his revolutionary accelerated plan which, if properly followed, allows a person to lose 10 pounds in just 7 days. A chapter in the book will be devoted to each day of the plan, which will feature a menu, exercise routines, relaxation and stress reduction exercises, and a few blank pages in order for the reader to keep a journal of his or her progress. Dr. Hyman will also discuss the philosophy of maintaining a healthy lifestyle, along with its practical ramifications, i.e. keeping the weight off.

Customer Reviews

not so simple
After visiting Mark Hyman's websites and seeing his video blogs on YouTube I bought 'The Ultra Simple Diet'. I started out feeling positive reading through it but then became a little put off. There are shakes and broths that need to be made using ingredients that are not the easiest to find (depending on where you live) and other herbs that need to be purchases etc. I discovered that I need to buy a steamer or a frying pan and a water filter (all of which I don't have). I only have a shower in my flat and part of the book's detox process involves having certain types of baths using epsom salts etc.. The emphasis is on buying 'organic' foods such as flax seeds etc. After looking at everything I needed my thought was 'how much is all this going to cost?' I don't doubt that Mr Hyman knows what he's talking about, but this is not ultra simple. I used Leslie Kenton's 10 Day Detox Diet several years ago and that was much simpler and very effective.
