Here are his recommendations on what to eat:
adequate amounts of dietary fats. high content mineral water (2-4 glasses per day) he says 8 8 oz. glasses is way too much. natural meat and organ meat from small free-range grazing animals. All fowl. Eggs. Fermented dairy from free-range animals. fatty fish. moderate consumption of salt. moderate consumption of wine.
I could find nothing on fruits and veggies!!
HERE'S HIS COMMENTS ON GRAMS OF FIBER
Teenagers and adults: Similar amounts of fiber are recommended for teenagers and adults—from 26 to 38 g (0.9–1.3 oz) daily. If you consume that much fiber, it means large stools, inevitable anorectal damage, and eventual dependence on fiber to move the bowels.
The elderly: As people get older, less fiber is recommended (not more, as one may think) because the digestive organs are no longer as agile and healthy. Unfortunately, this is not what most constipated elderly patients hear from medical professionals. The majority urge seniors to increase fiber consumption in order to relieve constipation. Even so, 20 to 30 g (0.7–1.0 oz) of fiber for people over 50, half of whom already suffer from hemorrhoidal disease (and from diverticular disease by the age of 60) is a prescription for trouble.
Of course, he claims that if everyone follows his guidelines, no more IBS, hemrrhoids, etc.
I could not find any real "diet" to follow. Maybe it's in his book. Yes, it made a lot of sense reading it, but so do other sources pushing the fiber. Again, he is trying to sell his book and his products.
