While the diet is designed to burn fat without losing muscles, some may find it very strict or very boring.
According to The New York Post, the plan first seven years ago Dr. Park appeared in the book, but has made a comeback online. An intestine health blogger wrote, “By the end of the week 1, I saw low swelling and better digestion. By the week 4, I had lost 4 and a half pounds of body fat and felt more energetically and mentally clear.”
