If this step is not supported by the appropriate dietary adjustments during feeding and the period after, there won’t be considerable and lasting results. It is difficult to believe in the serious intentions of someone who takes in alcohol or coke during feeding, or chews a gum, watches cookery shows and food all day long thinking only about the feast he is going to have straight after the “end of treatment”.
Are margarine, butter and oil dirty words? We often make wrong choices in selecting the main products for cooking or enriching the taste of our meals. Let us make things clearer in this respect. In the name of a slender and beautiful body many people limit the consumption of fats and oils.

Big doses and strong drinks result in oppressing of the stomach secretion.
