Results are that some days my energy level can be ordinary, usually when it's a low entropy day i.e. not much sun but if the sun is out....... HOLY SHIT!!!!! i get so much natural energy from this diet especially if i'm well rested that i'm actually slightly uncomfortable, definitely go burn some of that energy off, you will feel amazing and you probably will lose some extra pounds but no guarantee's.
