Your fat is not your fault.
Are you eating all the right things—low-fat yogurt, egg-white omelets, whole-grain bread, even tofu—but still can't lose the weight? Your favorite "diet" foods may be to blame.
In this runaway bestseller, nutrition and fitness expert JJ Virgin reveals the real secret behind weight gain—food intolerance. A negative reaction to certain foods like dairy or gluten can sabotage your health by triggering inflammation and causing a host of nasty symptoms like bloating, breakouts, headaches, achy joints and—worst of all—stubborn weight gain.
On The Virgin Diet, you'll eat plenty of anti-inflammatory, healing foods to reclaim your health and reset your metabolism, while avoiding the 7 foods that are most likely to cause food intolerance. You'll never feel hungry or deprived, and in just one week, you'll drop up to 7 pounds, lose belly bloat, gain energy, clear up inflammation and look and feel years younger. And that's just the beginning!
Including delicious, guilt-free recipes as well as testimonials from people who have had successful results, The Virgin Diet will help you to look and feel your best.

From Booklist
Healthy foods in moderation equal weight loss? No, says nutrition and fitness expert Virgin, whose claims include losing seven pounds in seven days by eliminating—forget moderation—seven food groups, including gluten, lactose, and others known to trigger true food intolerance, food sensitivities, and food reactions. Time-honored “correctly” balanced eating may be holding you back because of physical chemical responses causing digestive problems, inflammation and other immune reactions, and weight gain. This “science experiment” that puts a halt to calorie counting and isolates food intolerances can, Virgin attests, help us regain a healthy systemic balance before we reintegrate appropriate foods from certain food groups. The author’s straightforward, comprehensive approach provides a detailed guide to restaurant eating and “meal assemblies” structured in three cycles: elimination, gradual reintroduction of certain foods, and a diet for life. She also includes a Virgin Diet shopping list, a metrics conversion table, source listings, additional resources, and a list of the author’s favorite books. --Whitney Scott

Is It Really All FI?
By JerzeyBird
As many readers are aware, the food intolerance and elimination diet ideas have been around for a very long time. This book is a decent synthesis of that tradition, but the author's many statements of certainty leave me cold.
I am a physiologist working in the field of adult metabolic dysfunction, and I agree with her that diet is the cause of pretty much all the ills we experience. I read and generally follow the authors that she lists in her recommended reading as well as seriously read the medical literature, personally eat aligned with Weston Price, and think the GAPS diet is superior for healing a leaky gut. I do agree that there is mounting evidence that leaky gut is at the root of many autoimmune problems, and I define autoimmune in a very general way that includes anything that causes inflammation (that is to say, much more general than establishment medicine uses the terms for a limited set of specific illnesses).
But, in my opinion, she kind of mashes up a number of suspected metabolic derangements into the "IT!!" of food intolerance in order to sell her newest best thing, which oversimplifies the issue and sets people up to think that their weight and their cravings are all about their exposure to food antigens. To begin, of course people are going to lose weight when they clean up their diets, and how much of her claimed results are the result of folks giving this 3-week protocol a whirl and eating a clean and portion-controlled diet? Secondly, many of the foods on her list are well-known players in the insulin problem. How do we know that her results are not actually related to positive impacts on insulin and the resulting decrease in inflammation and cravings that accompany better regulation of it? She does talk about insulin effects, but again, it's sort of mashed in there with her primary goal of making everything about FI.
So, for example, while I agree with her that gluten is a huge problem for a lot of people, many folks will switch to non-gluten foods like high quality oats or rice, and still not be able to lose weight because those foods still cause a problematic insulin response for them. She also claims that cravings are about circulating IgG immune complexes on the hunt for their partner food particle (an idea I could find zero evidence for in the scientific literature), whereas in our work with disordered eating patients we found cravings and bingeing were related to not eating a breakfast that included protein, and suggest that it's actually more of a blood sugar issue. In fact, the Sweetness Trap chapter is mostly about sugar's effect on insulin drive and blood sugar. A food can be extremely problematic hormonally and have little or no impact on your immune system's response to it (which is what defines a food intolerance).
There's also that whole IgG thing; lots of blow back in the medical literature about what IgG really indicates and if it's bad or protective, and also significant discussion about the lack of sensitivity and validity of the IgG tests that are on the market. I had an IgG panel done and it did not flag foods that I have definite problems with. Clinicians who use the test (mostly naturopaths) have reported similar problems with it. She touts the test with certainty on her PBS show as a certain way to find out if you have a food intolerance to something, and knows that she's got a problem with eggs because she had the test.
Finally, I have problems with the whole dairy thing. Firstly, I think we need to really describe two separate types of dairy foods: pastured and raw vs. pasturized. These are really two different food groups. She does a whole chapter on how problematic dairy is, and then in fact makes the statement that pastured and raw dairy are something else entirely, and invites her readers to check that food out. Pastured dairy is becoming more easy to find (heck, you can find Kerrygold Irish butter and cheese in most supermarkets in the NYC area). I'm lucky in that I live across the river from PA where raw pastured dairy is a legally sold staple. However, if you have lactose intolerance, you'll know it and no amount of pastured or organic or raw will help you probably. But if you don't, then pastured and raw dairy may be a great food for you. Some animal studies have found a relationship between the milk protein cassein and cancer incidence, and there is human study evidence to show autoimmune reaction to cassein in Type 1 diabetics with celiac disease - which is a very specific and limited case, but my personal opinion is that this is an area of knowledge in human nutrition still to be figured out. I believe our diets should be as diverse and nutrition dense as possible, and eliminating so many foods can be a nightmare. If you have autoimmune symptoms, then eliminate it for a couple of weeks and see what happens. If not, or if eliminating it doesn't clear up your health problems, then raw dairy can be a great source of nutrition.
There are folks in the paleo community (for example, Robb Wolf and his mentor Loren Cordain and now Terry Wahls, MD of the Wahls Protocol) who are extremely respected and who believe that dairy is a no-no. They base their opinions on a few studies that concluded that while dairy does not have a big impact on your blood sugar, it still causes a rise in your insulin. This is one of the points that JJ Virgin makes in her chapter on dairy, which would be based on these studies. I read all of those studies, and I have problems with them. For example, the yogurt food used in the study most cited, which increased insulin very significantly, was actually yogurt with a fruit preserve it in. Whey increased insulin, even in a "combination" meal, but that combination was with white bread. How much would whey protein impact your insulin response if it was combined in a shake with a couple of tablespoons of coconut oil? That result would likely be much different. I am most miffed in that chapter, however, by her blatant misuse of the scientific literature in her statement that dairy makes you fat. She makes that statement as a bold section heading on page 96, and supports that statement with a study that didn't find that at all!!! (Barr, 2003). That review found that in 9 studies that looked at *increasing* dairy (not just eating dairy, but increasing it), 7 found no difference in weight to controls and 2 found an increase in weight in an elderly population for which they could not "accurately determine the extent of dietary compensation for the increment in energy intake provided by the added dairy products"; that is, they couldn't determine that the weight gain was due to the dairy itself or the increased calories. She maneuvers around this by saying in the text "if you drink *more* milk you gain weight". That's just dirty pool, and if she's got nothing more than that weak study (which the study authors even say was statistically weak), and she has to play word games with it to make the point, then there is no point.
So might many folks who have weight problems or inflammatory problems or mood problems also have food intolerances? Probably. But is FI the REAL cause of weight gain as her book states on the cover in no uncertain terms? Maybe not so much. I absolutely think humans should avoid modern grains, industrial seed oils, sugar, HFCS, GMOs, pasturized dairy and feedlot meat, but I'm not at all certain like she is that every thing is caused by a food intolerance.

Taking an In Depth Look At This Book And Diet
By Colorgirl
I have been a health enthusiast for a long time now, having studied and gone through many phases of health and wellness eating and living. One of the things that I have found to be extremely effective is the anti fungal approach to eating as Doug Kaufmann seems to have gotten the jump on for quite some time now. I prefer a more raw foods approach than he has, but still the principles are solid.
The Virgin Diet seems to be a spin off of many of the things that I like about the anti fungal approach from Know the Cause, but there are some things about it that bother me.
WHAT I LIKE ABOUT THIS BOOK:
1. I like the idea that you are honing in on 7 foods that are most likely to cause fat retention or bloating, etc. It is basic and not too overwhelming to think about.
2. I like that there is a basic core of information you can absorb and then do your own thing to stick with it for 21 days until you have purged your body of whatever it is that frustrates you. It does take time and devotion though- not easily done in all situations.
3. I like that there is an emphasis on things which do not feed fungi (which is a problem so many people don't realize they have) so that I know that this way of eating is bound to work well.
4. I like the shopping list in the back. It makes it easy to copy and print if you should desire an easy way to get through this 21 day test.
5. Every chapter has clear and easy to follow information about why you can or can not eat certain things and what the consequences might be.
WHAT I DON'T LIKE ABOUT THIS BOOK
1. There is mention in the book by the author that says that it is important to have a forum of support to help you make it through the first few days when you whine and get cranky from the adjustments. Then she says, that you just imagine her saying things to you, etc. Yet in the testimonials, people talk of having the forum of people to rely on which helps so much.
Ooooo Forum? GREAT- yeah, right, just try to go find it. No such thing. I am not too good at making pretend people talk to me when I am hungry and crabby, sorry.
2. If you want any kind of support on this diet, you can count on paying plenty for it. You can have coaching and group support, but then you have to come up with more money.
3. Most of the things are relatively easy to get to eat, but one of the vital ingredients in this diet is a pea/rice protein powder. Granted you can buy it at the store if you are lucky to find it, but you can go to her site and pay a pretty penny for it if you like- Another thing that makes me feel merchandized.
4. The layout of the book is not overly easy to follow for me, and I KNOW much of what is in this book already with a few exceptions I have to refer back to. That means that when I am on the first phase when I am trying to clean out, I am cranky and irritable and need help to find something to eat RIGHT NOW. To have to go through the book in a rage just to find something to eat so I don't go nuts, is not very helpful. I am dedicated, but not too many people will be able to spend this kind of time trying to figure out what the heck they can eat right now. I see this as a potential failure point, especially if someone is dealing with work schedules and other things which don't allow for heavy reading constantly.
5. There seems to be some confusion about this diet for me. Such as, in stage 1 you eat on week 1, two virgin shakes and 1 meal. Really? That is it? What kind of a meal? Which one? Does it matter? Then after that you get to eat 1 shake and two meals for two weeks. Later in the book there are recipes- a few not too many, so I just grab at one of them and hope for the best. But then there is that ONE FALSE MOVE AND BAM YOU HAVE TO START OVER routine. That was a little frustrating for me. Just one tiny bite can set you back in the 21 days? That makes it seem almost too stressful if you think about it. 21 days is a LONG time if you have a lot of places to be and people to be around who have no idea what you are doing.
THE BOTTOM LINE
When you eat store bought eggs and milk, you will get a lot of problems because of the way things are raised and the way they are changed through processing (ie pasteurization), even organic milk. Those are two things which are targets to get rid of on the Virgin Diet or at least test for reactions to.
One thing I would like to point out is that on the anti fungal eating program, one important thing is that corn is fed to most animals and is one of the highest sources for fungi of any food source (as are peanuts). It is passed down in the milk and meat, hence why the problems bloating up. That could mean you are not at all reacting to dairy or eggs, but what is coming through them.
Okay, so then what? Soy is tested for, and gluten, and also corn, peanuts, sweeteners, (in addition to dairy and eggs).
You can eat grass fed beef, salmon, and other animal proteins if they are from clean sources. On false move in the 21 days when you start and BAM you are back at square one again.
So, you get rid of those seven ingredients for 21 days.
Is it hard? YES.
Will you lose weight? ABSOLUTELY.
Will you feel better? MOST LIKELY.
Do you need this book and special protein powder to do it? NOT REALLY.
WHO WOULD LIKE THIS BOOK?
Anyone who is desperate to have a weight loss and health breakthrough would most likely like this diet. If you are not too aware of what to do or what might be causing your difficulties, it is a great place to start. Anyone who is struggling with diets that don't work, will find help with this. Anyone who is over 30 especially over 45 will find help with this book. If you want to just feel better in general, you might find this book helpful at the beginning, but maybe not for life, unless you are a really experienced cook who adapts easily.
WHO MIGHT NOT LIKE THIS BOOK?
Anyone who likes to play games with themselves will not like this book. If you regularly cheat and make excuses why a little bit of variation won't hurt to whatever diet you attempt- don't waste your time with this. If you are the type of person who wants everything to be spelled out for you in charts and graphs, and don't really read carefully about things before you try them, don't bother with this book. You will need to spend some serious study time before you begin this diet.
FINAL COMMENTS
I lost about five pounds the first week on this diet, but with all of the stuff I had to cut out to do it, that would have happened anyway. I did not have the protein powder, can not find it locally.
I just had a good reason to try eating more focused again, and I am thankful for the book. It was much needed motivation to return to a more strict way of eating. I do feel healthier with it and recommend this book with caution- again you have to force yourself to do this alone and to really read up on it before you try as the first week, there will be no one there holding your hand, and you will most likely get CRANKY. That is not a good time to have to rifle through the book to find some help or direction.

I need a new belt!!!
By Dr P
Most of the people I know could lose a little weight. I know I'm among the "most people." We want to, we know the traditional ways that we "SHOULD" eat and exercise, BUT... something gets in the way. So we carry that weight, a little more each year. Another promise made - and broken - each year.
And then, I heard JJ Virgin talk about the 7 foods that cause inflammation. She talked about the body being more like a chemistry lab than a bank account. It's not always about calories in and calories burned. Sometimes it's about what the body does with the "fuel" it's given.
I decided to give JJ's plan a try. She gathered evidence from thousands of people she had seen in hospitals and in her practice. Not only had she done her research, but she got results over and over again. I will say that in eating differently and by dropping seven foods out of my diet, I've lost 19 pounds in the last five weeks. I've experimented with different foods and putting some back in at this point just to see what my chemistry lab of a body would do. I'm now pretty clear about what works for me and what doesn't.
JJ's plan is simple, easy to understand, and easy to do.
It's funny to write a book review and to say that as a result of this information, I need new clothes!
You'll be saying the same. I hope you try it and that you, too, need a new belt soon!
