This is for people for whom it is a matter of LIFE and DEATH, not for the average overweight Joe. For one, it doesn't provide the necessary nutrition for the "average" American, and for two, unless you stay on the diet (VERY bad idea), you will quickly regain the weight you lost. This is an excerpt from an article at: ://www.americanheart.org/Health/Risk_Factors/Overweight/Fad_Diets/release.h tml "Many fad diets, like the cabbage soup diet, take advantage of people's desire for instant results by creating the myth that certain foods - in this case cabbage - have magical weight loss properties," says Robert H. Eckel, M.D., a member of the American Heart Association's Nutrition Committee and professor of medicine and physiology at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center in Denver.
