Of the following diets, which one would you say is the healthiest?
a. An all-organic, low-fat, vegetarian diet
b. A high-protein, low-fat diet that includes chicken and seafood.
c. A high-carb diet with pasta and grains.
d. A high-fat, high-protein diet that includes red meat and vegetables.
f. A diet that mixes carbohydrates, fat, and proteins in equal amounts.
** How a Low-Fat, Vegetarian Diet Almost Killed Me!
For almost two decades, I ate a low-fat diet with lots of organic fruits and vegetables. And what did I have to show for it? Serious health problems!
I had frequent stomach aches and digestion problems. Blood tests showed that I was not digesting my food properly, and a nutritionist put me on digestion supplements. Further tests showed that I was having liver problems and imbalances in some of my other internal organs.
Once I switched to a high-fat, high-protein diet, my problems disappeared - almost overnight. So you probably think I'm about to say "E" from the above list is the healthiest diet. Guess again!
One of my nutritional clients was eating diet “E” but was constantly sick. He switched to the more vegetable-based diet “A” above, and he began losing weight, feeling great, having more energy, and really enjoys eating now more than ever!
** The Biggest Secret Many Diet Experts Won’t Tell You!
So now we have two people who tried the same diets and had the opposite experience
So how do we know which diet above is the healthiest?
Here is the answer - one of the biggest diet secrets they don’t tell you:
Each person has a unique metabolism, based on their genetic make-up. And our individual metabolisms make the same diet healthy for one person, but damaging to another.
** That's Why "Diet Experts" Keep Changing Their Minds!
So that's why there is so little agreement among so-called "health experts". There is no "one-size-fits-all" approach to diet!
For example, high-protein diets are the rage. While some thrive on this type of diet, obesity continues to rise. Why? Because only a certain percentage of people are genetically "right" for a high-protein diet. For the rest of us, a high-protein diet will cause all sorts of health problems.
And that's true of any diet. A low-fat diet will improve the health of some people. For others though, a low-fat diet may actually cause weight gain. Yes, low-fat diets can cause you to gain weight if you aren't genetically "right" for it! Even worse, these low-fat diets might even cause sickness and serious internal organ problems for some people - just like it did me!
So it’s important to know your “food processing” genetics. Nutritional experts have identified 24 types in all. How do you know which type you are? An online questionnaire, available only from certified advisors, can spot the genetic characteristics that identify your correct internal “nutrition profile”.
With your nutrition profile, you can begin to eat *with* your genetic type, not against it. And you may find that eating with your type can help you lose weight and feel great, without feeling as if you are depriving yourself.
