Why There Is No Such Thing As A Perfect Diet

Diets are tempting to go on, and there are many that come out each year and many people get it. However I know in the back of their mind that they know that the diet won't work because they have been on so many before. Since the 1950s, the United States government has been working to put the perfect nutritional program for optimal health. They also invested in numerous of studies for health and nutrition and we all know that these theories on health fluctuate back and forth. This method is known as the food pyramid.

Well, the thing is people have to listen to their own body to determine what they need at times, and how much. However what I focus on is a permanent way of eating, not temporary regimes. Some diets may work temporary, you may lose a couple of pounds, but that all you will lose, and sooner or later you will gain all that weight back and possibly more! The reason why diets don't work is because it's not biologically able to fit into your body.

What?

This means that all diets are depriving you of one of the molecules that your body needs to survive. For instance the Atkins diet deprives you of carbohydrates and gives you excessive amounts of proteins. This is not the correct balance for a human being, and you need carbohydrates in order to function properly. The molecules of life are organic compounds. Organic compounds contain carbon and at least one hydrogen atom. Living organism consists primarily of carbon oxygen, and hydrogen. We get most of our oxygen and hydrogen in the form of water. That's why it's essential for you to drink enough water.

I know many people will ask the standard question, how much water should I drink? Well that all depends on many factors. It's obvious that a 5?0 foot woman will require less water than a 6?0 male because of the size difference. However, the strategy that I went by, especially when I was participating in sports is to drink enough water until your urine is crystal clear. If your urine is yellow, that is a good indicator to drink more water.

So, diets don't work is simply its depriving. Your diet should never be depriving; it should give you a balance of essential nutrients.
