Smart people do not diet, because any restrictions are ineffective, and sometimes just dangerous, says Dr. Markey. But this does not mean at all that you can eat everything, sit for hours in front of the TV and throw scales, sneakers and a bicycle into the trash. Quite the opposite. Dr. Markey, a graduate professor of nutritional psychology, is confident that for a long life (and a happy old age), it will be useful for all of us to pull ourselves together, establish a diet, physical training and sleep. The main thing is to be guided in this process not by fashion trends, but by proven scientific data and common sense.
