Four Crazy Diets that Might Actually Work
Carnivore, Vegan or Fast Food Fan? There's a Diet for Every Type
There is a new miracle diet every day. Or at least it seems that way. Even if there aren't 365 diets a year being proposed there are so many that some of them have to work. And for many people, many of these crazy miracle diets do work, just in different ways. HereThe Shangri-La Diet has a ridiculous name and a fine pedigree. The creator, Seth Roberts, is a professor of psychology at Berkeley and a prolific writer. The crux of the Shangrila diet is drinking sugared water or water and oil in between meals in order to train your body away from associating flavor with calories. The sugar is diluted so much that the water is tasteless, and the oil and water is as unappetizing as it sounds. Appetite and cravings begin to decrease immediately, and coupled with sensible meals it has worked for many. If you're skeptical SethRoberts.com has an active free forum, blogs, and links to many scientific explanations of how this kind of appetite suppression works. You can also read the first five pages of The Shangri-La Diet free online too. For a weight loss site the overall tone is very restrained and thoughtful, even when the Shangrila followers are celebrating their successes. Seth Roberts doesn't promise dramatic weight loss as much as he offers a way to change our behavior. The diet has also been been given a very balanced review here on Associated Content .
