Table of ContentsIntroductionWhy You Should Never "Diet!"One FoodFoods Which "Oppose" Each OtherFoods That Complement Each OtherThe Necessity of Fat in Your DietThe Myth of CaloriesConclusionAuthor BioPublisherIntroductionI decided to write this book when I saw a number of my friends following fatty diets with no proteins, low calories, no carbohydrates or anything else being promoted by any sort of person who called himself a dietitian and had good PR behind him.And I began to think. If these people were put in situations when they could not get food to eat, and had to survive with their body starving, they would not treat food with such casual contempt. However, they were starving their bodies of essential nutrients out of sheer ignorance. They wanted to get thin. Many of them were genetically programmed towards obesity. Others began gaining weight due to the body reaching a stage when it was in such a desperate condition that malnutrition had set in. And that is why it was putting on weight as a last resort in order to protect the body from any sort of future starvation.This book is going to tell you all about ancient food eating practices followed by the wise men of yore. If you say, I cannot do without my potato chips, or my sugar fix, well, you are not ready to live a lifestyle which were followed by our ancestors all over the world, millenniums ago. They ate nourishing food. And they were thankful for what they got. They did not bother much about silly newfangled ideas about calories and in the amounts of calories required to keep you healthy and strong. This of course is a fallacy and is a silly myth, which I am going to explain to you later on, but at the moment I am going to tell you more about how foods were used to heal a number of diseases down the ages, and naturally.
