“There are so many things in my life that have benefited from my choice to eat clean. I feel younger, healthier and more empowered. I have constant energy all day long.
All my life, I have battled anxiety. Ever since going clean I have reduced my medication dose in half! I can’t say enough great things about what eating clean has done for my family.
Eating clean isn’t a sprint, it’s a journey to a better you.”
ELIZABETH THOMSON
CLEAN EATING CHALLENGER
“I don’t diet and I don’t even own a scale. I go by how I feel in terms of energy and how my clothes fit. I like to think I eat right and the rest takes care of itself.
Since being on the Clean Cuisine diet I now crave good, wholesome food and don’t even remotely feel tempted by junk. I don’t even worry about portion control. Now, I naturally eat reasonable quantities because it tastes and feels satisfying.”
HOLLY REYNOLDS
CLEAN EATING CHALLENGER
“I am embarrassed and proud to say, I have lost 90 pounds following the anti-inflammatory diet. Many people say I look younger.
I used to take an alpha blocker, a beta blocker and a water pill to control high blood pressure. I no longer have to take any of my medications. My triglycerides have dropped from 174 to 67. This is the healthiest I have been in my life!”
How do I sign up for the 8 Week Clean Eating Challenge?
The original 8 Week Clean Eating Challenge was developed by Ivy Larson and Andy Larson, MD based on the Clean Cuisine 8 Week Anti-Inflammatory Nutrition Program published in 2013. Since then, thousands of people have taken the challenge to drastically improved their health and lives.

“Within 3 days of adopting a 100% clean eating diet, my entire life changed. Autoimmune symptoms I had suffered with for 10 years went away and my gut finally got in balance. I am a happier, healthier, leaner version of my old self. I now eat clean 90% of the time and have maintained lower antibodies and a healthier lifestyle.”
MADISON SUTTLES
8 Week Challenge Curator
“Within just a month of switching to a client diet, I felt better than I had in my entire life. Clean eating has enabled me to live the last 3 years in remission from my IBD and has given me back my freedom and life. I am so glad I made the transition.”
IVY LARSON
8 Week Challenge Creator
“I firmly believe that the clean eating anti-inflammatory diet and lifestyle I have followed for years is the reason I have never needed to take any disease-modifying medications for my Multiple Sclerosis. I am actually healthier and physically stronger today at 44 than I was at 22.”
Are you ready to reduce inflammation, lose weight, boost your immune system and optimize your health?
Clean Cuisine is an anti-inflammatory program that focuses on eating “whole” foods in their most natural and nutrient-rich state. Our nutrition program places a heavy emphasis on plant-based nutrition and is particularly rich in anti-aging and disease-fighting phytonutrients and antioxidants. Overall, it is a comprehensive physician-designed lifestyle solution developed to combat the two factors that contribute to disease and obesity: malnutrition and inflammation.
Who Will Benefit from taking the Clean Cuisine Challenge?
Anyone who is looking for a permanent lifestyle solution that will improve their health, energy and appearance should sign up for the Clean Cuisine 8-Week Challenge.
The Challenge will dramatically reduce systemic inflammation and is perfect for anyone with an active inflammatory condition (MS, asthma, arthritis, fibromyalgia, endometriosis, etc.)
And, although the Challenge was not specifically created as a weight loss program, the number one “side benefit” of reducing inflammation is hunger-free weight loss.
Can the Entire Family do the Clean Cuisine Challenge Together?
Absolutely! Clean Cuisine is a safe and healthy program the entire family, including kids, can follow together.
How is Clean Cuisine Different from Other Diets?
Clean Cuisine is not a “diet” but rather a lifestyle program and a way of living. You will not be required to weigh or “count your food” in the form of calories, carbs, fat grams, points, etc. Instead, Clean Cuisine shifts the focus towards making your food count nutritionally. You learn to eat in an intuitive way that fuels your body with the nutrients it needs and craves. But you also learn a completely new way of eating that places heavy emphasis on flavor-forward cuisine.
Our unique patient/ physician relationship is one of the things that really help make our program and approach to wellness unique; we don’t just look at the science, we take into consideration the importance of enjoying life. If you were to walk into our house you would find as many medical journals as you would gourmet cookbooks and magazines. On our bedsides we have copies of the Journal of the American Medical Association right alongside Food & Wine magazine. We have worked for over fifteen years to blend the best of modern nutrition science with the best of the food world and we don’t just want to extend our lives…we want to enjoy our lives too!
Is Clean Cuisine 100% organic?
No. Not because eating 100% organic wouldn’t be utopia, but it’s just not realistic.
Instead, we strongly encourage people to know as much about their food as they possibly can. Where did it come from? How is it packaged? How is it grown?
If you eat beef you want to know exactly what the cow ate and the conditions in which the cow was raised. If you eat canned beans you want to know whether they are packaged in a can that contains BPA. If you eat salmon you want to know what waters the salmon swam in and what food the salmon ate. All of these things matter. Once you learn where your food comes from you’ll be able to make educated decisions on what you eat and when it is important to go the extra organic mile.
Also, it is important in general to know that because animal foods are highest on the food chain they will contain more toxins than what are found in plant foods (the higher up on the food chain you go the more environmental toxins accumulate.) It is absolutely worth the extra money to spend organic on any animal foods you eat. But, since Clean Cuisine is a reduced animal-food way of eating doing this is not as costly as you might think.
Clean Cuisine is not a vegan program but it can very easily be modified to be so for individuals who do not eat animal foods.
How is Clean Cuisine book different than your typical clean eating / whole foods diet?
We shift the focus away from deprivation and introduce a whole new world of cuisine that combines flavor with superior nutrition. It’s a totally different mindset. Instead of saying, “Oh, I can only eat XX amount of carbs or XX number of fat grams,” we want people to say to themselves, “How can I get more fruits and vegetables into my diet? How can I make sure I am getting enough omega-3 fats? Did I eat enough phytonutrients and antioxidants today?” There is no shortage of food on Clean Cuisine!
Instead of encouraging people to “count their food” in the form of calories, carbs, fat grams, etc., we want people to learn how to make their food choices count nutritionally. And then we show them how to make their food taste amazing. Tasty food is a very important component of Clean Cuisine!
If you don’t focus on calories, carbs and fat grams, then what is the primarily focus?
We focus on nutrients! The best way to get the most nutrition is to eat predominantly plant-based foods in their most natural and unrefined “whole” state. This means we want you to go for corn instead of corn flakes or steel cut oats instead of a granola bar that is “made with oats” (but also made with a bunch of junk like high fructose corn syrup, processed corn oil, etc.), we’d rather you eat apples—with their skins on!!—instead of store-bought applesauce. We’d rather you eat “whole” orange juice made with peeled whole oranges rather than commercial pasteurized orange juice. We’d even prefer you eat “whole” olives or “whole” flaxseeds over olive oil or flax oil. The “whole” food is always, always going to have more nutrients per calorie.
