Mayo Clinic Diet - Beware Of Copies!

The Mayo Clinic Plan

Description

 

Firstly, A WARNING the approved Mayo Cliinic Plan published by the Clinic in Rochester, NY should not be confused with a diet known as the Mayo Clinic Diet which is a fad or crash diet which recommends grapefruit, salad and protein which sharply reduces carbs. Weight loss has been touted to be in excess of 50 pounds in a 10 week period.

The description here is of the Clinic's Plan. Unfortunately some of the Clinic's own published material refers to the plan as a diet which simply adds to the confusion. The Mayo Clinic Diet is not covered in this website and should be avoided.
