Hi Everyone!
Wondering if there is anyone out there who is trying the 17 day diet. I did it last summer and had great success, about to get back on the wagon now. I was wondering if anyone knew why zucchini & summer squash are not considered cleansing vegetables. I absolutely love both, especially this time of year, but I don't know if they are ok to eat! If anyone knows why/ why not they are a part of cycle 1 please share!! Thanks!

    I think there are quite a few oddities like this in the book. I included zuchinni on cycle 1 with no problem. But then I also included avocado - it's probably better to go with your own knowledge and research and keep the carbs down, while watching to ensure the calories don't drop too low.

    My guess would be that they are considered more 'starchy' vegetables? I'm curious about what this 17 Day Diet is?
