Dr. Dean Ornish wrote a book called "Eat More, Weigh Less". It is a vegetarian diet.
The only dairies allowed are fat-free cheeses, fat-free yogurt, milk, and egg whites. Foods such as seeds, avocados, nuts, all fats, oils, and refined carbohydrates are not allowed.
Sample Meal Plan
Breakfast
Orange juice
Whole-grain cereal
Fat-free yogurt
Lunch
Baked potato stuffed with fat-free cheese and spinach
Potato salad with fat-free dressing
Green salad
Fresh fruit
Dinner
Bread with tomatoes and capers
Whole meal pasta with vegetables
Peaches in wine
Drinks
Water, tea, coffee, skim milk, and juices
The diets, which are restrictive, are difficult to follow. Removing nuts, fish and seeds cuts the source of Essential Fatty Acids such as Omega 3.
