In fact, in his most recent release, the Fruit Diet 14-Day Rapid Weight-loss Program, Robb claims that increasing the number of fruit servings consumed each day to 20 or more can help turn back the hands of time by helping to soften the skin, lower body fat levels, lower blood pressure, firm the muscles, lower cholesterol levels and improve eyesight, while eliminating joint pain, indigestion, backaches, headaches and constipation.

Fruit is the key ingredient used in Jay Robb's 3-Day FRUIT FLUSH and his 14-Day FRUIT DIET because fruit is naturally high in water content, high in fiber and high in natural slow-releasing sugars. The nutrients in fruit can help dissolve toxins, and the water and fiber in fruit helps flush out the toxins via the urine and the bowel. Robb says that by following the FRUIT FLUSH™ 3-Day Detox, individuals can cleanse their body of toxins and lose up to nine pounds in three days.

The Fruit Flush™ requires two simple steps: Day #1 is a "Pre-Flush" day, where the body is hyper-fueled with regular protein feedings to deplete glycogen levels and prepare the body to be flushed of toxic waste. On Days #2 and #3, the "fruit flushing" begins, and a specific amount of fresh natural fruit is eaten every two hours to maximize the detox process while keeping blood sugar levels stable, thus avoiding hunger. The Fruit Flush™ also requires that evening meals consist of what Robb refers to as "grounding foods" that consist of specific vegetables and proteins.
