Diets: the Good the Bad and the Ugly

“Combine the extremes, and you will have the true center.” – Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel

When it comes to healthy food, the shear amount of experts out there is quite staggering to me.

Forget about the experts, it is difficult even to keep track of all the diets: Atkins, Raw, Alkaline, Paleo, Fruitarian, Blood Type, Detox, Okinawa, Water Fasting, Juice or Zone. This is not to mention Vegan or Vegetarian. There are even such exotic diets as Cookie, Lemonade, or Crash. If you have time you can browse through a list just to amuse yourself.

The proponents of these diets often appear very confident (occasionally even aggressive in the marketing sense) and the internet is full of shiny ‘before and after’ images of weigh loss successes. Sometimes pictures are followed by ‘buy-my-miracle-stuff’ limited time offers.

No wonder customers are lost, disappointed, frustrated, and sometimes even angry from all of the suffering and unfulfilled expectations.

To demonstrate this I just want you to see a few examples. The first is a video of a healthy diet and fasting ‘expert’ who seem to ‘know enough to be dangerous’.

The following two are classical and less glamorous examples of Juice diet disappointment …

… and Water diet disappointment.

Main point: look for people who understand the field and do not be a pray to those looking to satisfy their ego or make a few quick sales. If you do your research slowly and thoroughly, at the end you will save yourself a ton of time, money and disappointments.

Living Without Guilt

“Fear is the tax that conscience pays to guilt.” – George Sewell

Living with guilt can be a torture. Especially when nothing can be done to rectify the mistakes that we have made.

Maybe this video will help you to get a new insight on your feelings. Sometimes we hide our true emotions and thoughts deep inside making it hard to uncover them.

Did the video help you to understand yourself a bit better? I hope it did and you feel some relief now.

"I was truly touched after your presentation. Not that I just liked it, not that it was very well prepared and delivered, I was touched. The same is your founders-blog. It comes from your soul, it is based on your knowledge, it is simple and powerful at the same time. God bless you!"
