I was thrilled to see Mayo Connect putting out that information on dietary needs. And the accompanying warning about fads and fakirs ( Indian word for fabulists). The hair on the back of my neck stands up when I see a TV doctor selling their latest miracle routine. Making money on the vunerable. There is no magic. No quick fix. The secret is a balanced intake. DASH Mediterranean any similar life long plan to a long healthy life Stay the course. Not on off. Consistency. Check with your health provider. Let them set your caloric and nutritional limits. We're not cookies everyone is different.

My junk folder is full of revelations by "famous doctors" about some food that's killing me or how I should stop exercising immediately. People are so desperate to feel well that they will fall for anything. We have been conditioned to believe that there is a magic "pill" for everything. The idea that we simply have to make the right choices, day after day, meal after meal is kind of foreign to our culture but it is the answer and it's not difficult, as you say. Just stay the course.
