'Within just four days my weight had dipped effortlessly.' Barbara Griggs, Vogue 'I am sure that today I couldn't cope with the work I do without the diet.' Sir John Mills 'How to lose weight without really dieting' Anthea Hall, Sunday Telegraph

UK Kirkus review

Three-quarters of a century ago an American doctor, William Hay, devised a dietary philosophy based on a simple principle: to digest proteins requires acids, to digest starches requires alkalis; therefore never mix the two. Despite orthodox medical antipathy, the Hay principle 'Don't mix foods that fight', under various names, has a strong and growing following. It claims to alleviate ailments ranging from allergies to migraine, hay fever, and indigestion, as well as promoting weight loss and general feelings of good health. As diets go this one has to be worth a try: you don't have to give up anything, only change when you eat it. This is a useful, simple guide to the theory and practice, with recipes. (Kirkus UK)
