Magic recipe
Most people ask us for a diet that they can follow step by step, as if it were a recipe of exact ingredients that had to be mixed to give the result that everyone is looking for.
Some people seek to improve the aesthetics of their body and the minority seeks the care of their health. In both cases, the answer is the same ... “That magic recipe does not exist”, because the basic elements are perseverance, discipline, control and above all the interest in taking care of yourself.
When a person takes care of himself/herself, he/she is able to care for others with the interest that he/she does for himself/herself. So we remind you not to do temporary diets; instead, change your habits permanently.
Instead of not eating something special anymore, it’s better to learn to know what you are eating, so that you can recognize if it is beneficial to your body or not; if you must eat it in small portions or on very special occasions. That way there will be some foods that you, yourself, will decide to not even buy.
Nothing is achieved by magic, so when someone offers you a product that will make you lose weight in a few weeks or a shake that will take away your hunger or an equipment that will give you the body of your dreams in just a few days, remember that it’s a lie because everything is achieved based on perseverance.
