The Dodo diet: the new fasting diet

In short, we have understood that the guru of the ideal weight pulls a lot: be it a religious practitioner, an ecological naturopath or, as in this case, a passionate nutritionist, everyone can write a book on diets and declare themselves the inventors of a method to lose weight. Then this is fantastic, fasting to lose weight: one day you eat, another fast . Who has never thought of a diet like this?
It is called the Dodo diet (no, it is not inspired by the Dodo, that strange extinct turkey, but it is the acronym for Day On / Day Off): inspired by fasting for religious reasons, it was developed by a certain Drew Price, a nutritionist and coach, who to stay in shape is based on the lifestyle of the ascetic of the past. Who, for religious and certainly off-line reasons, used to eat by alternating days of normal nutrition with full days of fasting and meditation.

Everyone reading Drew Price’s book said to himself, come on, why not be like the faithful Orthodox? It is also easier than intermittent fasting, you only need to eat every other day , that is, following 24 hours of fasting. Not difficult! In one article they even wrote seriously that 24 hours of fasting include hours of sleep . Journalists, more and more jokers.
But go?
And yes, because we all generally have 24-hour days when we don’t sleep at all. Unlike the Fast diet (you ate 500 calories of stuff: little, okay, but you ate), the Dodo diet preaches, it must be said, absolute fasting on the fast day.
A walk. On the other hand, if it works for people who do self-denial and ascetic meditation with fasting, how do you want it not to work for mere mortals who meditate in the office?
I immediately propose some suggestive variants: the diet of the religious fanatic , the Kafkaesque diet of the faster, the diet of the self-flagellant, the diet of the heretic , the diet of the poor man in cane. I also have a slogan, but I am generous and I am writing it here, I leave you the copyright:Are you looking for a simple diet? Try not to eat.
