- This diet gets a lower rating because it does not include alternate appropriate food sources for non-meat eaters, effectively excluding all vegetarians. While there is some small advice for vegetarians, it is left to the individual to seek professional advice from a qualified dietician to tailor the diet for them, which means it is not the same diet
- Until the results of the Institutes of Health, four-year randomised, large scale clinical trial are completed in 2009 and the results are revealed, this diet cannot be endorsed yet as a diet that is safe in the long term as the potential health risks, safety and benefits of this diet have not been studied over a longer period
