diet

diet forms an integral part of our life.there is sudden surge of various diet to follow to avoid or to prevent complications of modern life style. our old men did not require any diet plan. their only plan was to work ,work and enjoy life as it comes. every new day is a discovery for them.


in modern lifestyle it is no longer a discovery. we can 'plan' our day ,months and years.in short we take life for granted and sleep with the thought that tomorrow morning'' i am going to stick to new routine for weight reduction!''.similar to our fast forward lives we also take diet for granted and assimilate protein ,carbs,fats(oops) into our diet.diet is no longer a way to satisfy hunger. it is a means of loading our stomach .it seems loading stomach is a way to fill our bloated ego.

modern man has passed his limitations and in his urge to show'' i have a bigger car than your 's ''  is turning him into a maniac .he is implementing the same rules to his diet.he keeps on eating without understanding what that food will finally do to his being.when the situation does come for the diet to manifest into a sign or symptom it is too late.the disease has struck!



our ability to process the need for diet can be understood if we carefully evaluate the anatomy and build up.physiology.

human body is made up of skeletal system which has a large network of bones and cartilages. upon this frame muscles are attached with give the movement to the body.there is a control center in the brain and spinal cord also bring about these movements through coordination with brain.like any machine there needs to be a efficient fuel to run the engine and storage of that energy in the body. this is provided by food we eat which when assimilated and processed forms into minute elemental nature of food and unrequired waste products are eliminated from the body. our body is basically herbivorous and has a small stomach and long intestines where this assimilation or absorption occurs.the storage of final end products takes place in liver and excess is stored in the body as fat.proteins are required for body building and fat is required for providing lubrication and also protection against cold weather.



hence carbohydrates ,proteins and fat are essential for proper maintaining body building as well as repair. so also micronutrients are required for assisting various other function in the body.

body is made up of 70% water ,hence we must take care to hydrate ourselves always. any dehydration will cause mental obtundation.
