For cryin' out loud, what is WRONG with people?! Why doesn't he do both?! If there's even a snowball's chance in Hell (we know better) that the Diet works, why would he not eat a friggin' smoothie every day?
because it's DANGEROUS!!! You just never know!!!!!!!
When my brother's wife to whom I had given natural Vitamin E for preventative purposes, particularly for my brother's heart (my father died at 47 of a heart attack leaving us five children between 9 months and 8 3/4 years, I was 2) told me in all earnest that she didn't take them since "one didn't know what the long-term effect would be", I nearly fell to the floor with stupefaction. I realised where she got this great wisdom from: her doctor had warned her!!!!!! I am sure the same doctor will daily give out drugs whose side-effects are KNOWN to kill people every day...
Thus is the sad game of people implicitly and innocently trusting in authority and those who wield it detrimentally by not opening their horizon further than their narrow education...
