Being overweight seems to be a national trouble. Diets, books on dieting, dieting organizations, and advice from doctors and health professionals do not seem to be enough. Millions of people have turned to dangerous drugs or harmful diets to stave off their hunger.
The meat industry and the fast-food restaurants have more to do with America’s weight problem than anything else. Each day we are filled with powerful TV and radio ads promoting (推销) the idea that it’s perfectly OK to have bacon and eggs for breakfast, hamburgers and French fries for lunch. and fried chicken and French fries for supper.
Is there a healthy diet that people can use to lose weight and keep themselves slim and fit? There is indeed. A healthy diet-and-exercise regimen (养生之道) is actually pretty simple. That is to cut meat, fish, and milk products out of the picture completely (and I do mean completely).
* Do not eat any meat, fish, eggs, or milk products. No cheese, no ice cream, no pizza, and no butter.
* Eat only low-fat, and low-sugar foods. Eat fruit (in reasonable amounts) for desserts.
* As much as possible, avoid drinks with caffeine, such as coffee, tea, or cola.
* Use soya drinks instead of milk. Soya drinks are high in protein and generally fairly low in fat.
* Eat cereals, grain, bread, and pasta in reasonable amounts (with no cheese, but always with high-protein foods).
* Jog or walk fast at least one mile per day. If you are unused to this level of exercise, start with smaller distances and build up to a mile.
It has been known for years that it is possible to get all the protein we need from high-protein vegetarian foods. Many restaurants now serve vegetable protein meals, such as veggie burgers or refried bean tacos and burritos; be sure to ask for them without cheese or sour cream!
