Forget every dieting rule you know - "The Anti-Estrogenic Diet" lets you eat fat, carbs, and your largest meal at night, as you finally win the fight against stubborn belly fat, fatigue, and unmanageable menstrual symptoms. Whether you are a man or a woman, the female hormone estrogen is to blame. Estrogenic chemicals commonly found in the environment, meats, produce, and herbs have harmful effects on our health. "The Anti-Estrogenic Diet" helps women overcome stubborn fat around the hips, upper thighs, and belly, relieve irregular menstrual cycles and bloating, and helps men become more virile and lose belly fat. There are three basic phases to the simple, three-week diet. The first allows you to detox the estrogen in your system, the second allows you to eat a high fat diet to compensate for the problems caused by eating too much estrogen, and the third reintroduces your favorite foods, little by little, to better understand your body's reactions.These phases are incredibly easy to follow, because the recipes included in the book are categorized to fit each phase, and a sample daily diet is provided for each. Hofmekler also includes a chapter on how to avoid a fat-gain rebound, a helpful glossary, and an appendix full of scientific overviews that make the book a valuable resource.
I strongly support The Anti-Estrogenic Diet, which provides simple guidelines on how to reach an optimal hormonal balance that revitalizes and protects the organism.
Daniel Kuhn, MD, founder of Integrative Neural Psychiatric Services of New York
The Anti-Estrogenic Diet is a must read for anyone who cares about their own health, the health of their family, and the health of our global community.

Ori Hofmekler has outdone himself and has put out my favorite nutrition book on building muscle, burning fat, and clearing excess estrogens.
Mike Mahler, strength coach and author of The Aggressive Strength Solution for Size and Strength
On the Anti-Estrogenic Diet, I lost weight I had not been able to lose using any other diet. My hormones are balanced, essentially eliminating any PMS and peri-menopausal symptoms. This is not a diet but an eating plan for life. I feel comfortable in my own body for the first time in a long time.
Testimonial from Nancy Loeffler, project manager at Whiting-Turner Contracting Company, North Carolina
Through a carefully laid 3-Phase protocol, this diet is designed to clean-up detox pathways, eliminate estrogenic foods and chemicals, and then incorporate anti-estrogenic foods for a long-term lifestyle change. Hofmekler still manages to allow many favorite foods but shows how to balance them with an overall anti-estrogenic way of life Overall, this would be a beneficial diet for anyone living in todays toxic environment.
