There is more discussion of the correct diet and who know just what the right one is. A quick look at successful diets you only need to go to the people who live a long and healthy life. There is what National Geographic says they listed them as the blue zones these people live to 100+ years in harsh conditions. I am sure people do not want to give up their life style to get that result so we need to look at what is the difference between them and us. They eat total natural foods no processed foods, no additives, no chemicals. No doctors at first glance that would sound bad but they know the body will fix most everything just gives it nutrition and wait. It you throw a drug into every ache and pain which changes the system and poison the organs. Most of these blue zones have a fresh flow of minerals into the soils and also most have little rain to wash it out. Many diets have come and gone some successful other not most were lopsided eat more of this and less of that. The latest is vegan diet this is more of a religion than a real diet. If you look at the blue zones once more they are all eat meat so success should count. Even cows are not vegetarian in reality but carnivorous cows have four stomach first three breaks down the grass so they can use it the last stomach is done with microbes which are animals and the cow eats the digested microbes. Like the leaf cutter ants that cut leaves and take them underground to grow fungus which they eat and not the leaves. There was a juicing craze that swiped the market and it was great and helpful for many people it is interesting because we have a built in juicer it is called your stomach which takes all food and turns it into a liquid call chime. If your stomach is not doing its job than a juicing diet might be the answer. Diets only work if what you eat gets absorbed into the body the only way that is possible if the digestive system is working correctly. The digestive tract is a tube that runs through the body unless the nutrition leaves that tube it is really not in the body and is useless. There are lists on different websites that tell you what minerals that are essential, vitamins that are essential, amino acids that are essential, and fatty acids that are essential. Once you get these on a daily diet you end with a perfect diet but most all foods sold today will not give you all and supplemental might be needed.
