They're too expensive or they...
They don't store very well, so you won't get the whole grains, the nuts.
You're getting the soft inner parts of the product rather than the whole thing.

Everything is softer.
Everything is easier to eat.
Nothing really requires much in the way of chewing.
Yeah, well, we've been brainwashed for the last 40 years into thinking that calories were the thing to eat.
And this was really led by the food companies, but also the diet industry, the classic Weight Watchers and all the others that came off of that.
Because it's a really easy thing to give people goals and say, right,
success or failure.
You've failed.
It's your fault.
It's not our fault.
Therefore, they keep coming back and paying them more money.
But I'm a scientist foremost.
And when you look at the actual data of all the studies done, even in trials where people are given an amazing amount of support to do calorie-restricted diets,
um, you know, the most they can go is, is about two years and the vast majority, 80 or 90% have returned to their, uh, baseline weight by that time.
And then they tend to overshoot.
So they often do worse having gone through this.
