The French Gender Diet

While the diets and cook books posted on in-gender is the best one for gender swaying; some people find it hard to maintain. The very next best diet (I think) to the one posted on ig is the French Gender diet(unless your ttc a boy and have high blood pressure; then do the alkaline diet). This diet allows more food than the diet posted on in-gender. Therefore, you have to be very strict even in the 2ww (no cheating ever!) The French diet can be done up two years without a break. According to the book you must be doing the diet for 2 1/2 months before ttc. Now this book is in French; so if you can't read French don't bother buying it (if you can read French then do buy it!). HOWEVER, THERE is a English version!! The French diet book looked at the original gender diet made in the united states and did there own experiments. They use a much larger study group. The following information has all be provided by Revedebleu. She did the translation and dictation of the books; and has provided all the follow information:

The name of the book is Choisissez Le Sexe de Votre Enfant: par la methode du regime alimentaire by Francoise Labro et Dr. Francois Papa
