There are no gimmicks, no associations with other supplement or product lines, and no pills to take. It's just real food for 14 days and the results from former clients include weight loss, reduced joint pain (formerly chronic), improved energy, and cleared skin.
“In just 14 days, you will notice your sugar and carbohydrate cravings subside, and you will learn how much better you function when relying on whole, unprocessed foods for nourishment,” Devyn says.
