Now, it may strike you that this kind of diet is rather more severe than that of most people, and that is indeed the case. However, it is an extremely healthy way of eating which everyone should experience at least once in their lives, and adhering to it for seven days is a very good way of developing your power of will.

In the third week of this training, you will experience your own cravings very clearly. Do not become disheartened by this, but welcome the opportunity to overcome your base urges for such things. You are not required to eat this way forever, but only for seven days.

The benefits of succeeding with this exercise are considerable. As well as strengthening your willpower even further, you will experience a dramatic increase in the amount of physical energy that you have.
