"Dear Dr. Alo,  Thank you for helping me lose the weight I've been trying to lose for 20 years. I became insulin resistant in 2001. My A1c was over 7. Since then, I've been taking metformin 500 daily.  Exercise is not my forte but I am not sedentary. This diet has helped me lose 35 pounds to date. I started 3 months ago. Thank you again for the Alo Diet, it works! PS My blood pressure was 160/100 and is now 118/70"

"I met Dr. Alo back in medical school. I weighed 340 pounds at the time. Mohammed put me on his diet and I actually enjoyed it. I didn't quite understand everything, but he said it worked, and that people have done it before. I started the diet in April of my first year of medical school. School ended in mid May and I had already lost 20 pounds. By the time I came back to school in late August, I was down to 240 pounds and was wearing clothes I hadn't worn since high school. I'm 6 foot 2 inches tall, and I was looking good! A lot of our classmates didn't even recognize me! It was such a good feeling!"

"I've been on this diet for the past two years. I love it! I'm never hungry, never feel tired, and am not thinking about food! I almost weigh what I did back in high school, and that was over 15 years ago. I can't thank you enough.."

"About six months ago, I started the Alo diet. I am 5 foot 8 inches tall and weighed 209 pounds. I am down to 178 now and look better than I have looked in years. My wife says I look like the day we met. Thank you, Dr. Alo."

"I began this diet about 3 months ago. I used to way nearly 250 pounds. Today I weigh 212.5 pounds! Yes, that extra 0.5 makes me happy, so I will report it. I am not done yet. This is a new way of life for me. I should weight about 180, so I am going to keep going. More than anything, I have learned what certain foods do to our bodies and how our bodies react to foods. This has been an education in nutrition, digestion, and metabolism.... not just a simple diet. And the diet is simple. Just a few easy rules! I love it. Thank you Dr. Alo! I feel liberated!"

"This is by far the best and easiest explanation of how your body metabolizes food and what you can do to counteract it. No one has ever explained this so easily before. I understand what I need to do to lose weight now."
