Book Description

April 30, 2007
By the #1 New York Times bestselling author Kevin Trudeau comes the last diet you will ever need. Imagine, you will lose at least 30 pounds in 30 days...with no hunger...no exercise...and no surgery!

An absolute cure for obesity was discovered almost fifty years ago by a British medical doctor. Tens of thousands of people used this simple, inexpensive, safe medical treatment and achieved miraculous, fast, and permanent weight loss. Stubborn area fat deposits melted away. Body reshaping of the hips, thighs, buttocks, and waist was so dramatic it appeared as if the patients received liposuction! Amazingly, this medical breakthrough has been debunked, discredited, and suppressed by the American Medical Association, the Food and Drug Administration, and other medical establishments throughout the world. Now, for the first time in fifty years, this revolutionary breakthrough discovery, which permanently cures the condition of obesity, is being released to the public.

The main problems that overweight people deal with are massive, intense, constant physical hunger; food cravings and uncontrollable urges to eat when not hungry; low metabolism; and an abnormally high amount of fat stored in stubborn secure problem areas such as the hips, thighs, buttocks, and waist. This "weight loss cure protocol" has been proven to be virtually 100% successful in correcting these conditions, thus curing the individual of obesity for life! Read the fascinating true story of how this discovery was made and, more importantly, how this miracle weight loss breakthrough has been hidden from the public so that drug companies can make billions of dollars selling their expensive drug treatments and surgical procedures for obesity. You'll be amazed to read how the food manufacturers actually have a financial incentive to make you fat! This is the book that answers all the questions about why people today are continually getting fatter and fatter. The good news is this book gives you the cure that can solve your overweight condition once and for all.

About the Author

Kevin Trudeau is fast becoming the nation’s foremost consumer advocate and exposer of corporate and government corruption.  Claiming to be a secret covert operative for almost twenty years, Kevin knows from personal experience how big business and government try to debunk individuals who promote products that could hurt the profits of giant multinational corporations.  Trudeau spends most of his time spearheading www.naturalcures.com, the website that promotes education about natural healing therapies; and www.thewhistleblower.com, the website that exposes corporate and government abuse and corruption.  He is actively pursuing lawsuits against the individuals, corporations and government agencies that take advantage of the average consumer.  He is also dedicated to the formation of various foundations to pursue these goals, and intends to donate much of his fortune for that purpose.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't confuse the message with the messenger! August 12, 2007
Format:Hardcover
Kevin Trudeau is indeed a scummy scam artist, but he stole his entire premise for this book from a brilliant doctor named Simeons, whose plan works. HCG injections (which are not illegal in the US--my doctor prescribed it for me, but it's tough to get a doctor to do it for you) combined with the 500 calorie diet does really work. But you don't have to waste your money buying this book. Simeons original manuscript is called Pounds and Inches. If you Google it you'll find free copies all over the internet and they explain how to do this exactly. Trudeau wrapped the original, well-researched plan with his own additions to the program, including the insane "phase 1" with it's cleanses/colonics/massages/etc that no one has the time/money for. I followed Simeons' original plan and lost 30 pounds in 6 weeks. You have to be totally commited, but it does work. It's just too bad that it's wrapped up in the stench that surrounds Trudeau. Trudeau's claims that the HCG is easy to get are just plain wrong--you have to either be lucky enough to have a doctor you can convince (I did but I'm in the very small minority, unfortunately) or be willing to order from an online foreign pharmacy. You have to do the injections yourself. There are oral forms of it our there, too, but there aren't good studies yet to prove that it works as well as the injections. It's definitely something that not all will do, but it's worth it if you're willing to take the risk. It's too bad that this miracle cure had to be brought back into the light by someone as distrustful as Trudeau. Research Simeons, though, and you'll find out about the real "cure" and won't have to line this con artist's pockets in the process.

And for those of you who think this is HGH, it's not. It's an entirely different substance that has no known negative side effects. And for the "just eat less and exercise more" crowd...I've been down that road for the last 8 years, working out with a personal trainer 3 times a week (who was just as baffled as I was as to why I couldn't lose weight), doing extra cardio on my non-trainer days, and eating a 1200 calorie a day diet for 18 months. I don't watch television or sit around on my couch all day. Nothing worked until I tried this. It truly is an incredible thing but you have to be 100% commited to it. It works. Just don't buy this book to find out about it!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Hold on a minute with all the negative feedback... September 25, 2007
Format:Hardcover
I saw Kevin on TV and I admit, he's quite a good salesman, but some reviews about this book are simply dead-wrong. First off, you are not advised to inject yourself with anything unsafe. HCG (Human chorionic gonadotropin) is widely used as a weight loss aid in this country and is ENTIRELY legal; you don't have to get this from outside the country. I found a company that sells it at a reasonable price and in an oral form versus injection (I am not fond of needles). According to the book, this hormone signals your hypothalamus gland to start burning fat in your problem areas. Whether this works or not is debated. Read more about HCG and weight loss here: http://www.releana.com/. Of course I like to learn all sides of an argument so you can also read about a not-so-friendly article on HCG here: http://www.dietscam.org/reports/hcg.shtml. As Fox News tells you: You decide.

There's no doubt this regimen is for the serious person who really wants to change their life, habits, and body. It's a long-term plan and not simply a get-thin-quick scheme. I am not obese, but took parts of the plan, applied them into my life, and after only 1 week on the program am already seeing results. Sure, Kevin recommends many things to assist with your weight loss, but you don't have to do all of them. I think there's over 50 suggestions in the month before you officially begin the regimen alone! I don't think any of us have the time for something that drastic.

And yes, the book is pretty boring reading and could have probably been just a pamphlet rather than a book. Because I'm one with a slow metabolism and has struggled with weight my whole life, I'm doing the full regimen. If 3 months out of my life can show me drastic results I'm game. It has cost me about $300 to get started on all the vitamins and HCG but seriously, aren't you going to spend that on food or something else anyway???

Bottom-line is that it's a regimen not for the faint of heart. It's going to take some hard decisions, serious effort, and a little money to do, what plan doesn't that shows results? If you're not willing to change your habits for 30-45 days DON'T waste your money.

Here's the question: What are you willing to do or pay to see significant change in your body? The principles in the book are nothing new and he is simply reminding us of what we all probably already know...that chemicals lace our food supply and we're all FAT because of that and the fact we stuff our faces with tons of unhealthy food and sit around all day with no exercise! And despite Kevin saying you don't need to excercise; I recommend you do.

All the suggestions in this book are probably good for you and will lead to weight loss. From the teas, to organic foods, fruit, protein, walking outside, and water consumption, nothing is ground-breaking or revelation for dieters. If following some print in a book advising you to do what we all know we should makes you lose weight, then this book is worth the price. Eat well, decrease caloric intake (portions), exercise, and drink water; that's the REAL cure.

If you're willing to sacrifice a little effort and money, you'll see results with this plan. Long-term results take serious efforts; this is no secret and we've all learned that if it sounds too good to be true...IT IS!

3.0 out of 5 stars I'll be honest... August 1, 2007
Format:Hardcover
I would have given this 5 stars if it was solely about Dr. Simeon's Protocol. But Kevin Trudeau has added some of his own methods to do before you actually start the diet. This is where he tries to sell you stuff.

I'm sorry, but as I read alot of the negative reviews on this book I have to laugh. People that are posting negatively are the same people that read the book, decide that it is too hard, give up on at least trying, decide it's not for them, they don't have the time, then come here and post their negative garbage.

I bought this book and fought through all the FDA/Fast Food Industry bashing before he actually got to the actual diet part. It is in "phases".

PHASE 1: This is the part where Kevin Trudeau(KT) is a true salesman. He even states that this is not part of the Simeon's Protocol (the actual diet part) but a phase that he recommends. In this phase he tries to send you to websites where you can buy health products that he probably has some form of monetary interest in. Alot of these products can be bought from your local health food store...BUT IT IS NOT PART OF THE ORIGINAL SIMEON'S DIET.

Phase 2: This is the actual beginning of the original diet. Taking the injections of hCG along with low calorie food intake. From the book it says, "The specific foods used cause chemical reactions in the body, combined with the hCG to activate the hypothalamus into releasing the secure abnormal fat reserves causing dramatic weight loss without the loss of muscle or structural fat." Eating lower calories by itself does not work because your metabolism slows.

Phase 3: This is second and last part of the original Simeon's Protocol. Another diet phase without the hCG injections and pretty easy if you are used to the Atkin's Diet.

Yes, I am currently doing this diet and this is my 28th day on Phase 2 and I have lost 27 lbs. It works. You don't have to do the things that KT "recommends" that you do, although I'm sure that they are good for you. You don't have to do colon cleansing (another of HIS recommendations) ever other day like some people would have you believe.

Kevin Trudeau is only reporting on a diet that is well known in certain circles but is not well known to the general US public. Sure, he tacks on more than a few products of his own that he would like you to go to some website and buy them up but the guy is writing the book for the money.

As for getting the hCG, if you are reading this then you have access to the internet...Google it and get it yourself like I did.

I'm not writing this to endorse KT's methods in this book. I'm writing this to say that Dr. Simeon's methods in this book work. You don't have to do the things that KT "recommends" that you do.

Almased - alternative to hcg method
Hello Douglas

I am looking at doing this too now - could you share what you did to lose the twenty pounds in 6 weeks?

Did you do the weight-loss program where you did a short digestive tract cleanse, followed by only Almased for 2 weeks? And then maintenance for another 4 weeks?

Thanks
