Transcript
Someone in California sent me an audio tape touting the benefits of algae. You eat this algae and drink 15 glasses of water every day and, according to the testimonials, you lose weight and you feel good. I probably would have tried it if they had stopped there, but then they said you?d have the same amount of pep and energy as you had when you were 20. And that killed it for me right there because I couldn?t get out of my own tracks then either. I?ve heard that a friend of mine is on one of these algae and water diets and that he has lost 30 pounds. You can see how that could happen. No matter what you eat, if you put it down on top of 15 glasses of water every day, you?re going to lose weight.

Review of A California Diet That Works
Good piece, but I think it is unusual that some one would just send a letter to the producer about his special diet. Everyone has a special diet but this is really special. This guy has like bypassed being a homo sapien and went to like an amphibian or fish. Jesus, fifteen glasses of water plus algea. Yeah sounds like a fish to me. But whatever, as long as someone is healthy and loses weight, it is socially acceptable. Anyway, good for him and good for the producer.
