It's a new book written by Sara gottfried, MD, entitled The Hormone Reset Diet. It's a 21 day plan to get your hormones at a healthy level. Every 3 days you add a new hormone to focus on while continuing the others. After 21 days you have "reset" 7 hormones through diet and not medication. The resets are: Estrogen - Meatless Insulin - Sugar Free Leptin - Fruitless Cortisol - Caffeine Free Thyroid - Grain Free Growth Hormone - Dairy Free Testosterone - Toxin Free I just completed the first cycle which was easy for me, no meat and no alcohol. This second one is proving to be a bit harder. I really have to use this site to check my carbs before I make a meal.
