Molecular Gastronomy, The Science of Cooking

Roland Piquepaille writes "The Art of Cooking is evolving fast in this 21st century. New food products are being designed with the help of molecular technology, genetic discoveries or space research before arriving in our kitchens. For example, here is a Pravda article which says that NASA is preparing sandwiches which will still be edible after seven years. Companies like Kraft are also using nanotechnology to create food products tailored to users' needs. This is a booming market and, according to Associated Press, dozens of universities in the U.S. are offering degrees in culinology, attracting creative students in their food and science programs."

> Atkins works as it thows your body into ketosis, vegan works as you have almost zero fat intake, simply being active, eating healthy and lowering your calorie intake works the best in the long run.

Atkins and vegan diets kill you for the very same reason that unhealty food does: it's unhealty!

I had many many different diets, and i can tell you that the whole concept of a "diet" is a huge load of crap!

Do you know what it takes to bekome healty and thin?

1. Eat only when you're really hungry! not when you just want to eat now. (to force you to a normal eating behaviour. try taping a "H?" above your fridge to remember yourself.)
2. Eat in smaller amounts and more often (to get your stomach to a normal size again and to not fall into a ravenous appetite).
3. Move your ass and do some sport.
4. And most important: never ever stop doing point 1-3 for the rest of your life!

That's really all you have to do. Nothing more... But as with all addictions, it depents on your willpower to do it. (Tip: A psychologist can help you more than you may think with that problem.)
