That is an awesome video and the information in there is life-saving. It is the best presentation I've seen on the subject, and he also has a couple of books; I'm buying a Kindle version today. I will most definitely read it.
It is not a diet but a change of lifestyle completely. I followed this very simple rule, no sugar and no processed foods -- made of complex sugars and carbs-- and fasting. I lost tons of pounds, like over seventy pounds in a year and of course it made living with the stoma astronomically better. No more having to go to the bathroom often to deal with gastronomic and digestive messes that made the whole experience torturous. No belly so now it's tucked inside me so even if you hug me, you still can't feel it, and it hides itself, it's an afterthought now, never mind I look better and feel more agile.
It brought social changes also, more activity, and a better life without having to deal with frequent bathroom visits and blow-outs and such. I am blessed and fortunate I have no side effects now, so I forget I have this the whole day, an afterthought now, cross my fingers stays this way.
It works and can work too well also. I took it too far, started to fast for days, and stopped eating veggies and salads, what happened was my kidneys started to fail due to the creatine, and my doctors had no clue. I kept losing and was getting very skinny, but I loved it because of the freedom I found with this diet. I hate this thing so much that changing my diet was so easy, loved it because I could see the changes immediately and feel the freedom the weight lostand lifestyle changeswere bringing, became addictive lol, not funny.
Doctors don't think it's diet that may cause something, they simply ignore it. Well, started to eat again, gained back fifteen pounds, ate allkinds of things, the kidney failure scared me cold, and the kidneys started working again. I was lucky I helped a friend move to this city and she stayed with me for eight months just as my kidneys were failing and she loves to eat and eats tons, doesn't gain either which is crazy for the amount she eats, and cooks really well also.
Now I followit but remember to eat salads and veggies and I do eat once a week 'bad food' like ice cream and pop corn, homemade with real butter, love Costco hot dogs. It's a good balance now. My friend visits now about once a week which is great for my diet, keeps me from taking it too far which I can do easily just because it is so freeing. I mean you follow these rules and you will have absolutely no issues living with this thing, it will free you, unless you have other complications.
This eight minute video can change your life, good luck to anyone having these issues.
