Hypothesis
I will lose weight and improve my health, sleep, skin, and general beauty by doing the following:
- Eliminate high glycemic foods (including sugar), artificial sweeteners, gluten, and bad fats from my diet.
- Take supplements to support health, including fish oil, multi-vitamin, evening primrose oil (for skin), and probiotic. Green tea.
- Switch my beauty and cleaning products to 100% natural and preferably organic.
I am a typical American, eating a typical American diet. High glycemic, sugary products, eating out frequently, gluten (i.e. wheat), and not nearly enough fruits and vegetables. I have intense sugar and carb cravings.
I would say I have metabolic syndrome (weight issues, inflammation, blood sugar issues). I gain weight easily and find it impossible to lose it. I also have a sluggish thyroid and skin issues. My energy is frustratingly variable and I have trouble sleeping.
My inspiration
I was inspired to do this experiment by a book I've read (and reread), called "The Truth about Beauty" by Kat James.
So what should I call this experiment? I have to call it something, but I can't think of anything creative!
