(620 posts)their sole purpose is to sell something. I prefer to consider 'diet' as everything/anything one puts down the neck, and there is so much information available as to nutritional value of all food items, glycemic indices, fat/protein/carb needs for the body, etc., it should not be necessary to buy a labeled 'diet' to maintain a good weight/healthy life - especially with a good exercise program (check with your physician before beginning one.)

PROS
The advantages of The Fat Resistance Diet are that everything is clearly explained about the concept on the website as well as in the book, which can be purchased directly from the official website. Dr. Leo Galland is an expert in his field; a fact which is not only a self-declaration among doctors trying to sell diets, but one that is acknowledged among his peers.
CONS
The downside of the diet is that the medical studies that were performed on it used animals and not humans. Furthermore, evidence has yet to show that this diet is any more successful than other diets. The details about what is actually involved in participating in this diet are rather vague, but it does seem to require significant lifestyle changes regarding to food consumption.
