The DNA diet claims to give you all that you been dreaming about; wrinkle free skin, great figure and more. Sounds cool, right? Not really, this is no magic wand that’ll help you achieve all this with a whoosh of a stick, but a reality check that gives you options to choose and change your lifestyle habits to realize your dreams.
What is it all about? It is said that although 99 percent of the human DNA is identical, it is that one percent that makes your body and looks different and unique. (Of course, nothing exciting, if all of us are similar!). Well, this one percent determines how your skin ages and how easily you will put on weight.
So, what the experts do here is to identify that gene that could possibly be responsible for the bodily changes that could occur in the future. In simple words, if your DNA analysis says that you are prone to osteoporosis, you could take up load bearing exercises and up your calcium intake earlier on. If you are prone to age earlier, then you will be advised to go in for an intake of antioxidants that will help neutralize ageing free radicals.
And, last but not the least, if you are having a ‘fat gene’, you know why all your diets are failing and why your friend who gorges on packets of chips remains slim while you bloat if you munch the smallest cracker!
But, what’s this diet going to do? The nutritionist then uses the information to create a diet and lifestyle plan that is tailor made to compensate for any potential problems your genes may cause you. The DNA diet experts say that once you are armed with the knowledge, it makes it easier for you to reach your goal as you are aware of your drawbacks and are willing to put in the extra effort to reach that last mile.
These great promises don’t come cheap either. If you are willing to spend £300-£825, you could get your complete analysis and find out about your potential susceptibility to heart problems, cancers, even Alzheimer’s.
Well, if you are smart enough, you could ditch the so called DNA diet and spend the fancy amount on anything else that you are drooling over. Switching over to a healthier lifestyle will anyway give you all these!
