These dietary recommendations are an excellent beginning diet for patients who are beginning detoxification. Patients who are committed to the changes can have dramatic results in just a few weeks. Try and eat only organically grown foods. There is no restriction on the amount of food you can eat. The foods listed are only examples of foods to eat.

Steamed vegetables
The primary reason for using steamed vegetables is that steaming improves the utilization or the availability of the food nutrients allowing the GI mucosa to repair itself. Use minimal raw vegetables except as a salad.
Eat a variety of any and all vegetables that you can tolerate. It is bet to try and eat mostly the lower carbohydrate (3-6%) vegetables.

For example:
3%-asparagus, bean sprouts, beet greens, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, celery, Swiss chard, cucumber, endive, lettuce, mustard greens, radish, spinach, watercress

6%-string beans, beets, brussel sprouts, chives, collards, eggplant, kale, kohlrabi, leeks, onion, parsley, red pepper, pumpkin, rutabagas, turnip
