How can I get diet information about this program?

It does not promote eating tons of fat. Fats are permitted in form of bacon (breakfast) and on vegetables (dinner). Otherwise I feel it’s healthy as it promotes tons of vegetables, the half grapefruit fir fruit ad lean meat or fish for dinner. It cuts out white carbs (like pasta, bread and rice and potatoes
