Bestselling author, Kathy Freston visited ABC’s Good Morning America today to discuss her new book, The Quantum Wellness Cleanse.
Freston, who advocates replacing foods with healthier choices rather than depriving yourself, claims that in just 21 days without “the big 5″ - caffeine, gluten, sugar, alcohol and animal products - you’ll experience more energy, lessened cravings and a change in your tastes. Freston herself engages in these three-week cleanses a few times each year. She also says if you can’t handle removing all five things at once, try just abstaining from one or two.
TV maven, Oprah Winfrey praises the cleanse and even blogged about her own 21-day experience. (Ironically, Oprah has just posted a coupon for a grilled chicken two-piece meal from KFC on her website…)
Although it is said to help with dropping a few pounds, Freston’s cleanse is more than a weight-loss plan; she suggests trying it as a way to jump-start an inner makeover. The program actually has its roots in Freston’s third book, Quantum Wellness: A Practical and Spiritual Guide to Health and Happiness which details how incremental changes can reap large rewards.
