Dietary bites

Did you know that almost 95% of people on a calorie-restricting diet re-gain the pounds after they lose it?

Many diet pills have things like caffeine to make you "hyperactive" so you can burn fat. What's wrong with that? (a) maybe you never knew (b) maybe you think you were not taking in so much caffeine

Some weightloss pills are just a bunch of dietary fiber - the same thing they stripped away from the natural food during the processing... They sell it to you (again), but you could have had it better by eating enough fresh fruits and vegetables. But wait...

"Eighty percent of Americans do not eat fruits or vegetables that are rich in antioxidants."- Health Power, Diehl & Ludington

Wow! That's bad. But you do eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, right. And eating them is better than drinking them...

I know you knew that, but I just had to say it. Bye. Stay healthy!
