Dr Frank Lipman Diet

He is a believer in detoxification and claims to do “three or four cleanses a year”. He has stated that “gluten and sugar are the devil” and takes his patients off gluten even if they do not have a wheat sensitivity, as he claims that gluten causes inflammation in the body. Frank also advocates a low-carbohydrate high-fat diet consisting of grass-fed animal source foods with no grains and limited fruit and has also promoted the paleo diet. Frank recommends grass-fed butter, goat and sheep’s milk cheese, and leafy vegetables.

He disputes the current saturated fat guidelines and argues against low-fat diets. In a 2018 interview Frank said that “if the fat comes from nature, or if it’s made by God, it’s more than likely healthy for you” and “natural fats, avocados, coconut oil, meat from grass-fed animals, eggs, these are all good, healthy fats, and it’s only in the past 50 years that we fell into this low-fat ideology.”

He says that all people should take four daily supplements: multivitamins, vitamin D, omega-3, and probiotics. Frank also recommends that people should supplement with 2,000 IU of vitamin D every day. He has also incorrectly stated that 80% of the United States population is deficient in magnesium and recommends that people soak in magnesium oil or Epsom salts to get magnesium via their skin. Yvette d’Entremont has commented that magnesium deficiencies are rare and has criticized Frabjk’s advice as unreasonable. Frank claims to be a “big proponent of intermittent fasting”.
