"Every single day in this country and around the world, people are subjected to conventional “wisdom” and advice from the likes of Oprah, Dr. Oz, the medical and drug company establishment, the government-institution establishment, the industrial-agriculture food establishment, the talking heads in the media establishment, and health columnists. What kind of advice? Advice that keeps people in their 20s and 30s, and even children, in many cases, obese, immobile, and sick. What’s worse, it keeps them dependent on a system constructed for others’ profit."Damned right they do...."
"And isn’t that what it’s really all about, at the end of the day? The authorities don’t want you using your own mind. They want nothing to do with your reasonable and rational self-experimentation on your own body. No, what they want is for you to recognize their “superior” intelligence and privileged access to information only they know how to properly interpret. They want you to need them—to always look to them for your answers.
"They want you to be skeptical—but only towards information that contradicts their diktats. They want to be the authority, the last and final word, always and forever, and they aren’t going to give that up without a fight.
"Well, they’ve got themselves a fight.

Thanks for posting this up! I've ordered his DVD. Did the 4-Hour body diet and I dropped 20 lbs in 6 weeks. I also was near-diabetic and became normalized when I did 4HB. I stopped about 4 months ago and have gained 10 lbs, and only that little because I'm careful of how much I eat. Great beer is my weakness (weekends) and I probably won't ever stop drinking it, but I hope Paleo will help with The Sugar and keep my energy levels up. I also drank the Kool-Aid when I read Born To Run and have been running about 11 miles a week with minimalist shoes. I'm 5'6" and before this whole body improvement endeavor I was at about 280 lbs. When I started 4HB last year, I was at 255 lbs. By the end of my 4HB experiment I had dropped to 229 lbs. I would like something I can LIVE with and I believe Paleo can be it. 4HB was a stepping stone to that goal.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear. 4HB is basically a paleo approach, so you should see continued success. Be patient, though!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck.
