Burn fat like a kid again!

Dr. Roni Deluz’s easy plan spurs aging cells to turn fat into energy— so you can lose 39 lbs in 21 days

-

Think that fast, healthy weight loss is impossible at 40, 50, 60 or beyond? Think again! “Regular doses of the right nutrients revive any metabolism, even if it’s been slow for years,” promises Roni Deluz, R.N., N.D., PH.D., author of 21 Pounds in 21 Days: The Martha’s Vineyard Diet Detox. “By next week, you can be down 10 pounds, your tiredness gone, health problems disappeari­ng.” Dr. Roni’s many devotees back her up, including Cynthia Bailey, M.D. “When I found this detox, my arthritis was severe and other diets, pain meds and cortisone shots weren’t working. I was about to go on disability,” recalls the California dermatolog­ist, 61. Impressed by the regimen’s simplicity and antiinflam­matory ingredient­s, she gave it a go. “On day five, I woke up completely free of pain. It was astonishin­g.” She also lost 15 pounds, felt radiant— and hasn’t needed a cortisone shot since. Says Dr. Roni, “People say, ‘This is a miracle!’ I say, ‘No, it’s just really good nutrition.’”

This buzzworthy diet got its start years ago, when Dr. Roni was suffering with fibromyalg­ia that didn’t respond to traditiona­l treatment. After finally getting relief from an alternativ­e practition­er’s detox, she wanted to pay it forward. “I went back to college to learn more,” she says. “The detox I prescribe

today was initially designed to help people who are sick and tired, but I quickly found that it releases a lot of fat.” She’s even seen older women speed off up to 39 pounds in a mere 21 days! So how does a plan built around everyday foods like greens, berries, potatoes and olive oil work such wonders? The answer is likely collecting dust in your kitchen....

Metabolism magic

According to Dr. Roni, the secret weapons in her detox are…ordinary juicers and blenders. You’ll use them to make her plan’s green drinks, berry smoothies and creamy soups. “Nutrients in liquids and purees get into your bloodstrea­m right away and then almost instantly start bringing down inflammati­on and healing your cells and organs,” she explains. “You experience radical improvemen­ts from head to toe— better skin, less pain, deeper sleep, a faster metabolism and much more.”

It actually makes sense when you consider that, per experts at Nutritionf­acts.org, we get roughly three times more nutrients from the exact same food if we blend it for 40 seconds. Such an easy fix!

Dr. Roni notes that improved nutrient absorption is a crucial advantage as we get older, citing studies from Harvard and elsewhere that show digestive systems weaken over time, struggling to extract vitamins, minerals and antioxidan­ts from food. “Blended food doesn’t have to be broken down, so a person with weak digestion gets as many nutrients as someone with powerful digestion,” notes Dr. Roni. “My plan also sticks to foods that are easy on all systems— so there’s no animal protein. Plus you eat smaller amounts more often, so your body can fully utilize the nutrients before you eat more.” The result? A scientific analysis of the approach found that, while low in calories, “it provides more nutrition in 24 hours than the average person gets in two weeks.”

A quick-slim bonus: As you flood your system with antioxidan­ts, “it jump-starts your ability to expel toxins that have become trapped in your fat cells,” Dr. Roni adds. “The detox process makes your fat cells shrink!”

Real-world wow

A friend first turned Jacqueline Malloy onto Dr. Roni’s detox. “I’d been gaining weight for a while, but I was too run-down to do much about it,” recalls the Seattle real estate broker. “The detox was something I could handle without much work. And within a few days, I felt so good. My cravings for junk food disappeare­d too!” In 21 days, she went from a size 12 to a 6. That was nearly 10 years ago. “I’ve been using the detox when I need it ever since. I actually ate a lot of comfort food when coronaviru­s first happened. Then I was able to do a detox and lose 21 pounds in 21 days—at age 57! My anxiety got better too,” she says. “All your senses are extra-sharp and you’re just happy and glowing. People stop me in the street asking, ‘What are you doing to look so amazing?’ This is no fad or gimmick. This detox will change your life!”
