Dieting Makes People Fat
Changing Your Shape Means Changing Your Life
Obesity has become an epidemic in this country, along with most other countries throughout the civilized world. As such, an industry was born to cater to the population which it effects. Weight loss is estimated to be a $40 billion industry, whose executives would be most unhappy if people really did lose weight. If their diet plans worked, we would surely have a population of fit, healthy, and slim women; and the industry would be self-terminating. It would have served its purpose. Instead, we have two and six week diet plans which help women to lose a small amount of weight (usually less than 10 pounds) to soon regain it with even more. This is actually part of the business plan, for the money of this industry is made from people being unhealthy, and miserably staying that way. Diet products fail because that is part of their design, just as the medical industry has no cures for its cash cows, and will make certain that it never does. There is no money to be made from healthy people. Meanwhile, surgery-enhanced celebrities create a facade of how women should look.
The western world has adopted an unhealthy approach to eating, which would have been considered gluttonous in the not-so-distant past. We pay little attention to the amount that we eat, and often stare at entertainment throughout our meals; neglecting meaningful interaction with others. The great irony is that we are overweight as a nation because we are starving for nutrition. We are deficient of magnesium, the B vitamins, Vitamin D, and almost every trace mineral, due to our synthetic fertilizers having depleted the soils, and our chemically "refined" foods. Our foods are so deficient that the more we eat, the hungrier we tend to become, as our bodies struggle to make use of the empty calories. It is like the case of the early American settlers, who lived on a diet of corn. A huge portion of those settlers died of starvation and
