Yes, Lemonade Diet is Unnatural

And just because Beyonce supposedly used the diet doesn’t mean you have to. In fact, it’s probably a dumb idea. http://www.superskinnyme.com/lemonade_diet.html

And if you’re pregnant don’t go on a diet fool.

Being skinny is a dream. Just be yourself and eat proper foods instead of the processed crap your see on TV or on TV trays. So simple.

Oh, and exercise.

But don’t believe the hype of phantom cleanse diets that require you to not eat. Common sense.

If it Sounds Unnatural it is

Good post from Huffington on cleanses and how all the rage doesn’t add up. Most people do more harm than good trying to find the next fad in healthy diets. Chances are most everything you hear at the kiosk in the mall is false. Don’t risk your health by listening to a high school drop out tell you how you need to go on a juice diet.

Most cleanses will make prolific claims about the need to rid your body of toxic elements. They use fear to ultimately sell.

Detox Plan – Don’t Trust a Nutritionist

You know the difference between a nutritionist and a doctor? About 4-10 years of school. Why on earth would you listen to nutritionists and marketers when it comes to health? Not saying nutrionists and lifestyle newspaper writers are dumb people, a qualified nutritionist or dietician can do wonders to put you back on track if you’re been an idiot with your diet.

What you do’nt want to do is take medical advice from someone who stands to make a profit from your choices, or who just seems to be piggybacking on prevailing popular opinion.

The Wheat Cleanse

Doctor’s, dieticians, your mom, they all agree, eating whole grains is an important component to a healthy diet and healthy life (plus it makes you regular).

But apparently wheat just ain’t what it used to be. The genetically modified wheat we use now is quite a bit different than the wheat our ancestors used. For one, ours is full of sugar.

You’ve hard of the Atkins diet? Get rid of carbs? Well there’s some level of truth to it, although abolishing wheat all together isn’t the answer.

When Doctors Say ‘Cleanse’ They Mean Good Diet

Too many people are getting sucked into a marketing industry that preys upon the demand of health. Body cleanse diets are certainly up there when it comes to health ideas that have never been proven yet are widely popular.

The thing is doctors don’t advocate cleanse diets you hear about from a nutritionist, or more than likely, your neighbor.

Who are you going to believe? A physician or your neighbor who dropped out of high school?

What Fruits and Veggies Won’t Get

Note to self, the primary advocates of major cleanse programs are at best dieticians with limited schooling and who don’t focus on the scientific evidence behind the validity of the claims of various claims. MONEY is the primary driver behind this health industry. It’s pseudo health.

Countless individuals we encounter feel ‘better’ after a cleanse. But what we do’nt take into account every time is the change in diet. If you start a diet of fruits, veggies, and whole grains, beyond what your body is used to, you’re more than likely going to feel ‘better’ simply because of your diet.
