The Diet Manifesto

The excess of sugar products (cakes, pies, yoghurts, dates, grapes, figs, melons) leads to the rapid destruction of the pancreas, which has the role of producing insulin and regulating the amount of sugar in the blood, which favors the development of diabetes. Any excess of carbohydrates causes digestive problems such as bloating, diarrhea and increases the level of cholesterol in the blood, which leads to deposits on the arterial walls, causing arterial stiffness, high blood pressure, and heart disease. Lipids are essential elements in the constitution of the cells of the human body. They provide the body with between 30 and 35% of its energy needs. The daily needs of the individual are 1g of lipids for 1 kg of weight. Vitamins are essential to the balance and vitality of the body, even if they are not involved in the construction of tissues or in the production of energy. The role of vitamins is to help enzymes to carry out chemical reactions in the tissues.
