is post pushed all the right buttons and got the exact reaction he wanted from his loyal followers. Comments like, 'F**k yes, tell it like it is', and 'Great post mate, can’t get enough of these comparisons!' Such comments are great for his ego and undoubtedly gave him the significance he clearly craved that day. However, as I alluded to in my original response to him – and what I want to make really clear here - he hadn’t actually read the book he was so confidently condemning. I know! So, this aggressive, expletive, headline-grabbing post is focused on a book he hasn’t even read. It's like me giving a review of a film I have only seen the poster for! The greatest irony is when he goes on to say, 'My goal is to provide people with facts…' Yes, he did say 'facts’. I don't know how you can provide people with fact-based information when you haven’t even read the subject matter but hey, what do I know?
straight. Otherwise, my approach, the approach that may just turn someone’s life around, will be ignored all because of this so called ‘expert’.
What is it going to take for people to realise that 5 days of consuming juice is NOT going to solve 20 years of being overweight or obese, NOT going to 'cleanse' you and NOT going to kick-start anything remotely meaningful.
First up, let’s deal with the, 'nothing sustainable has been learned' comment. If you have read the book under fire, or indeed any of my books, you will know one of the main things I deal with, in quite some detail, is what to do after an initial kick-start juice diet. It is one of the most important things I teach and one of the reasons why so many people go on to turn their health around after following one of my programmes (and that is a fact!).
There are many who argue (as he tries to), that a juice diet isn’t sustainable, but who said it was? Who has ever said you can live on nothing but juices or blends every day for the rest of In his first post, he commented on my your life? I certainly haven’t. My juice/ 5-day juice diet: blend plans are a short-term kickstart which can act, when followed properly and when 'But what happens 5 days after that? all the information is 5 weeks after? 5 years? Nothing, because actually read, as a real nothing sustainable is learned. You still catalyst for positive don’t know how to control weight by eating life-long diet and health changes. normal food. You are still unaware of WHY
you are overweight.'
It’s difficult to know where to start, due to the sheer absurdity of what this guy has posted. Unfortunately, many of his followers will believe this crap, assuming (understandably) that he’s done his homework and therefore basing his argument on ‘fact’. Which is why I’ve had to say something and why I feel compelled to set the record
What tends to happen when anyone follows one of my juice/blend plans, is your cravings usually change massively by the end. Meaning the vast majority of people (especially those who actually read my books or watch my coaching videos), crave good nutritious food come the end of their juice experience. Despite this fact, @thefitnesschef ended his post with:
The utterly ill-informed, spouting claptrap like this really get my goat. Once again, he uses language like ‘poorly advised’ and ‘misleading’ – this from a guy who, let's not forget, has totally ripped apart a book he hasn’t even read (have I mentioned that yet? You know the fact he hasn’t read the book?) I mean, that’s not at all ‘poorly advised’ or ‘misleading’ to his followers at all! He also finishes with the statement:
‘We should be better than this. We should be educated.’ Oh, the irony once again. Comments like, ‘It won’t kick-start anything remotely meaningful' simply illustrates his sheer lack of research into my work and this subject. I don’t have either the time or the space here to share the stories of the many thousands of people who have seen long-term changes through juicing. People contact me daily to tell me their juicing success stories, and often one of my books, juice plans or Super Juice Me! documentary have sparked something within them which has made a difference to their outlook and helped them to move forwards with their health in some way. I could share numerous examples of incredible success from around the world, but here are just a few examples...
