Anyone have any experience with the "Hunza Diet"?
Edited on Sun Jun-13-10 12:49 PM by Mr. Ected
It seems intriguing.

That, together with Apple Cider Vinegar, sounds like a good, healthy way to lose weight and clean out the old arteries.

"HUNZA DIET BREAD is a bread That Miraculously Stops Your Appetite And Hunger and is based on a 2000 year old recipe said to beat all fad diets hands down. It's the fastest, and totally painless way to lose weight. "

Hunza breads ingredients are loaded with nutrients, protein and vitamins with a heavy texture. This combination causes a "full" feeling after eating only a couple of slices. With the protein and vitamin rich ingredients it makes it easy to wait till your next meal before wanting to eat again.

The Hunzas are considered to be the healthiest people on earth. Their bread is the main part of their diet. This bread is absolutely delicious. Everybody loves it. But then a startling discovery was made. Just one or two slices of this bread would suppress a person's appetite for 4 to 6 hours! Could this be a designed bread invented thousands of years ago?

2. Sounds a lot like the Whyza diet I've been on for about 35 years
"Why's a cauliflower even considered a food"?

4. Only if you put bacon and cheese on it
Aw, who am I kidding. Not even then, not by a long shot. Cauliflour recently became an integral part of my diet, but it has no flavor worth mentioning.

6. I think that is an unfair assessment
Pork, love it or hate it, has a distinct flavor. Plus, it tends to have loads of salt from curing, which also is a punch to certain taste buds.

I do not think its fair to say pork has no flavor to speak of. Just not one that you enjoy.


Moving on, since this is, after all the lounge, what has a defenseless little cauliflower ever done to you, that you need to viciously gnaw on it? At least pigs are sometimes mean, and would eat me if given the chance...

7. The flowers of cauli have never done anything to me.
Rather than discussing pork products, the flavorful nature of cauliflower or why I think everybody should be compelled vegan in order to save the Earth, I shall now ramblingly pontificate at great length about the marabou stork (Leptoptilos crumeniferus).

I am a militant greenie and a lover of pigs, chickens, cows, horses, whales, pigeons, cats, dogs, marmots, turkeys, fish (I'm a strict nearly-vegan vegetarian, you see)...but not marabou storks.

Marabou storks are malevolent creatures: mean as psychopaths, territorial, aggressive and some of the very few animals known in the wild to kill for pleasure. You can't make bacon out of marabou, they're filthy disease-ridden carrion-eaters and the pretty much only animal on the planet more destructive per proportional population than humans. Their scat is an environmental pollutant in any quantity and highly contaminated with parasites and nematodes. Unlike most large raptor birds, not only are they not threatened or endangered, they're thriving...and everywhere they spread they devastate the local environment. They've done as much damage to the Serengeti as man has. You can't miss them, they're the largest landbirds in the world. They've been known to disinter, befoul and consume funerary remains that have not been buried deep enough...for this as well as their reaper-like appearance they're known as the undertaker bird. I've already contacted the National Zoo to inquire, they will not lend me one or both of their breeding pair for Dick Cheney's funeral. They look like vultures except they're the size of Andean condors and golden eagles...about 20lbs and a 3.5m wingspan. They eat half their body-weight in rotting meat daily, have single-handedly caused the extermination of multiple species of wildlife including two types of flamingos and they have no natural predators.

I f*cking hate them. They're a wonderful allegory for the destructiveness of mankind.

8. Like chickens
With long beaks and long legs.

I hate chickens.

Then again, I find most birds rather annoying.

11. that is an idea worthy of contemplation
Particularly if one were to coat it in cheese and bacon, then batter and deep fry it.

9. hmmm.... the answer to your question, so far, is
no.

Which is unfortunate, because I'd actually like to know if it works.

I take exception with your assertion that "This bread is absolutely delicious." I think it tastes like punishment.

Of course, I've only had one bite, maybe it will grow on me.

12. Didn't hear about the diet till now. Found more than one "free" recipe at a single website --->
http://www.clevermag.com/investigations/hunza.htm

Too much molasses and honey to be low-cal. Wouldn't
a couple slices of any whole grain multi-grain bread
be enough to cause a "full" feeling when eaten before
meals?
