    Dr. NO's Lean Diet plan focuses on eating smaller amounts of fewer varieties of foods, avoiding hydrogenated fats, refined sugar, salt, and following principles of food combining and digestion in layers. The plan emphasizes eating watery foods first, chewing food thoroughly, and avoiding certain food combinations to optimize digestion and save energy. Foods are grouped based on their digestion times, with fruits digesting quickest and animal proteins taking the longest. The principles draw from ancient sources like the Mahabharata and Ayurveda as well as modern research.
