The GM diet and health program was developed for employees and dependents of General Motors, Inc. and was intended for their use. It recommends that during the first seven days you must abstain from all alcohol and that you must drink 10 glasses of water each day.




Day One

All fruits except bananas in any quantity you want. It is suggested that you consume lots of melons the first day especially watermelon and a loupe. You are preparing your system for the upcoming programme. Your only source of nutrition is fresh or canned fruits. Fruits are nature's perfect food. They provide everything you could possibly want to sustain life except total balance and variety.


Day Two

All vegetables. You are encouraged to eat until you are stuffed with all the raw or cooked vegetables of your choice. There is no limit on the amount or type. For your complex carbohydrate, you can start day two with a large baked potato for breakfast. You may top the potato with one pat of butter. This starts with a fix of complex carbohydrates coupled with an oil dose. This is taken in the morning for energy and balance. The rest of day two consists of vegetables, which are virtually calorie free and provide essential nutrients and fibre.


Day Three

A mixture of fruits and vegetables of your choice in any amount, any quantity. No bananas. No potatoes because you get your carbohydrates from the fruits. Your system is now prepared to start burning excess pounds. You will still have cravings, which should start to diminish by day four.


Day Four

Bananas and milk and soup. Today you can eat as many as eight bananas and drink three glasses of milk. The bananas are for the potassium you have lost and the sodium you may have missed the past three days.
