The UltraSimple Diet is a new book from Dr Mark Hyman, author of the bestseller UltraMetabolism.
UltraSimple is a 7 day program that seeks to address toxicity and inflammation. Hyman believes that these two factors are the reason why many people struggle with obesity.

Here is a rundown of the diet:

Foods containing the following are eliminated from the diet:
Caffeine
Processed and refined carbohydrates and sugar
High-fructose corn syrup
Hydrogenated (trans) fats
Processed, packaged, junk, or fast foods
Alcohol

The book provides very detailed instructions and guidance on how to go about removing these things from your diet (along with any supplementation that may be required).

During the program, the following foods should be eaten:
Filtered water
Fish, especially small, nonpredatory species such as sardines, herring, wild salmon, black cod or sable fish, sole, and cod
Lean white meat chicken breasts (preferably organic)
Fresh or frozen noncitrus fruits, ideally berries only (preferably organic)
Fresh vegetables (preferably organic)
Fresh vegetable broth (three to four cups per day)
Legumes (lentils, navy beans, adzuki beans, mung beans, tofu, and others)
Brown rice
Nuts and seeds (almonds, walnuts, pecans, macadamia nuts, and pumpkin seeds)
Flaxseeds (ground, preferably organic)
Lemons

These are good rules in general.
