There are people out there who are exactly like you and me, with only one little difference – they never put on an ounce of fat. Would you like to find out how they do it? If the answer is yes, read on.

The people I’m talking about are the human tribes living in the wild. Their physical condition is fascinating. At the age of seventy they still have all their teeth intact – and yet they’d never seen a dentist, nor heard of dental floss. Randomly selected tribesmen easily outrun our top athletes – and yet they’d never trained for a contest. They can feast over a good kill for days, consuming mountains of food, with fat running down their chins – and yet the only weight they put on is muscle. They never heard of cancer, diabetes, heart disease, or depression. They usually die during warfare or hunt – but until then they stay healthy and strong.

How do they do it? The scientists have been trying to figure out an answer for decades. At first, they assumed different genetics (kind of racist don’t you think?). That theory fell to pieces as more and more of those people started moving into our modern cities where they – you guessed it! – quickly became like the rest of us: overweight and sick, with bulging waistlines and rotting teeth.

The next theory was of energy shortage; that is, people in the wild are so active that they expend more calories that they can possibly eat. Recent research (especially with Massai in Africa and Inuit in Canada) suggests the opposite: these guys live in places where there is abundance of food, and they sure eat their fill. For instance a Massai can drink up to seven (!) litres of full-cream milk in a single session (that’s about 5,000 Cal!). So what happens to this tremendous amount of energy they put in, if it’s not converted into fat?

They convert it into energy for life. They use food the way it was meant to be used – to give them abundance of energy to stay active, to run for days on end, to make love, to enjoy life and every minute of it!

But how do they do it? It is only in the last ten or fifteen years that the science started to come up with the answer: the secret to their amazing levels of energy, fitness and health is in what they eat! And, perhaps even more importantly, in what they don’t eat.

For you and me, it is the best possible news. If you’d like to become energetic, healthy and fit, to become free of sickness, tiredness and stress, to achieve a body of your dreams … the good news is you don’t have to kill yourself in the gym, you don’t have to run a mile at six every morning, you don’t have to spend a fortune on drugs and supplements…

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS CHANGE YOUR DIET!

Visit the Diet of Nature Natural Diet Book website to learn EXACTLY how to do just that.

WHY Diet of Nature?

Imagine that the tank in your car is made of rubber. Every time you fill it up it expands a little. Now let’s say you need thirty litres of petrol a week for your driving, as you drive pretty much the same distance every week.

Things go well for a few years, but then as your car ages, you notice the engine doesn’t have as much power as it used to. What you don’t notice is that the car uses a little bit less petrol now. You keep pouring in thirty litres every week.

What happens?

As time goes by, your tank swells more and more, until eventually it starts dragging itself behind the car, impairing its movement. You have to do something.

You have three options. You can:

1. Pour less petrol in, OR
2. Drive more, OR
3. Get a mechanic to fix the engine so that it burns a bit more petrol and gives you a lot more power (like it used to).

These are basically the three approaches to dieting:

1. Eat less (reduce calories – this is how most commercial, low-fat and vegetarian diets work)
2. Exercise more (this is why there are gyms everywhere)
3. Re-tune your body so that it becomes reluctant to store fat; this is how the Diet of Nature works – by restricting the storage hormones and activating the fat-burning ones.

Now, the first question you want to ask is: which one works? They all do. So which one do you guys recommend? The Diet of Nature. Why?

Good question. The first reason: because it’s EASY. You can always do things the hard way and the easy way; I prefer the later. It is hard to weigh and count everything you eat, it’s hard not to eat when you’re hungry, it’s even harder to get up one hour earlier on a chilly morning to go for a run; so if there is an easier way to achieve the same (or better) result, why do it hard? All you have to do on Diet of Nature is follow a few simple principles, and watch the fat melt away at incredible pace!

The second reason is SUSTAINABILITY. You see, the problem with calorie-reduced diets is that they are not sustainable. If you don’t eat your fill, your body wants more. Now you can fight your body on this, for sure; but you can’t win. It’s like missing sleep: you feel sleepy but can use your willpower to stay awake for a few more hours, perhaps even few more nights if you’re really strong; but at the end your body will always win, and you will drop! What usually happens on low calories diets is this: you eat less and lose weight, but you feel increasingly hungry, anxious and restless. Your body assumes famine conditions and reduces your energy conversion (metabolism) – you feel hungrier and less energetic, and what’s worse you no longer lose weight as your body protects the stores of fat! That really becomes a bad deal, so you give up and resume your normal eating pattern. As your energy conversion stays low for a while, you quickly regain the lost weight and more! That’s what they call yo-yo effect – the sad truth is it affects over 90% of dieters! (You guessed it, this is how commercial diet companies get repeat business!)

It is a very similar story with fitness. Every year in January the ranks of gym members swell as people make their New Year resolutions. They join the early morning aerobic classes or enthusiastically run the treadmill at 6 am. Eighty per cent do not last till March!

You see, the truth is whatever you decide to do about your health and wellbeing, for it to have a lasting effect you have to maintain it for the rest of your life. If you can be in the gym at 6 am three times a week to run the treadmill for the rest of your life, that’s great, go for it! If you can handle feeling constantly hungry for the rest of your life, weighing and measuring everything you eat, you can do that too. But don’t bother doing it for a few months, because at the end you will only be doing yourself harm. The DIET OF NATURE allows you to eat until you no longer hungry, as long as you stay away from the forbidden foods. You will no longer fight your body – you will work together with your body to become healthier, fitter, stronger, and – last but not least – much more attractive!

The third reason is body composition: on Diet of Nature you don’t just lose weight (composed of muscle, water, and fat); you lose FAT. Because the amount of food you can eat is not restricted in any way, there is no reason for your body to eat away at your muscle and other vital organs; Diet of Nature simply manipulates your hormones to melt the fat away!

Finally, the fourth and perhaps most important reason is that Diet of Nature is NATURAL. This is the diet humans have been on for millions of years, the diet that separated us from our more hairy brethren, the diet people living in the wild still use today to keep themselves unbelievably energetic, healthy and fit.

Whether Eskimos in the Arctic North or Bushmen of Kalahari Desert, they feast on a diet rich in game meat and seafood, supplemented occasionally with some wild vegetables, berries and nuts. Despite their harsh living conditions, they stand tall and strong, with powerful muscles showing clearly through their glowing skin. It is common for them to go through life without ever falling sick, not once.

How many times were you sick last year?

Theirs is the diet our bodies were designed to handle, the diet we’ve been evolutionary made for. Humans have evolved on this diet for fifteen million years; it’s been only the last few thousand that we have changed it. We started replacing animal, protein-based foods of our ancestors with plant, carbohydrate-based foods of agricultural age. As our bodies are not designed to handle them, they cause havoc in our hormonal system. In addition, the industrial age added processed foods to the table – junk foods loaded with sugar and killer trans-fats. The end result is that the most beautiful of God’s creations – human body – is becoming a grotesque mountain of fat that keeps growing until it finally kills the body it’s living on…

The Diet of Nature is based on a very simple principle: eat the foods created by Nature (or, if you like, by God), avoid the foods made by man.
