6. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the HawaiiDiet™, we put a number of community leaders, including the Governor and some representatives of the Native Hawaiian community of Papakolea Homestead, on the HawaiiDiet™ in a 3-week program. In 3 weeks, the group weight loss for the 23 participants was 249.25 pounds. Average weight loss per person was 10.8 pounds. The highest weight loss was 21.75 pounds. Webhealthforyou.com

7. Average cholesterol decreased 23.6% (from an average of 205 mg/dl to 157 mg/dl). At the beginning of the program, there were 11 people with cholesterol over 200. At the end of the program there was only one person whose cholesterol was over 200. Average triglycerides decreased 36.3% from an average of 238 mg/dl to 152 mg/dl (normal range - 50 mg/dl to 150 mg/dl). One person's triglycerides decreased 863 mg/dl from 988 mg/dl to 125 mg/dl. Another person's triglycerides decreased from 617 mg/dl to 93 mg/dl. Webhealthforyou.com

8. Blood sugar in those with diabetes or borderline diabetes fell an average of 38%, from an average of 177 mg/dl to 122 mg/dl. This drop resulted even though the four participants on medication for diabetes were able to reduce their medications, including one who got off 90 units of insulin. Webhealthforyou.com

9. Average blood pressure fell from 130/79 to 120/75. This resulted even after eliminating one person's blood pressure medication when his blood pressure dropped to normal levels, and also after reducing the blood pressure medication of two other people. Webhealthforyou.com
