   Hi:   
      
   I’m currently thinking of a hypothetical diet product that is vegan-   
   friendly and has all the nutrients of vegetables, fruits, herbs,   
   algae, seaweed, mushrooms and other non-animal organisms that are   
   necessary/beneficial for human health. It also contains beneficial and   
   essential microbes [such as probiotics]. All the aforementioned are in   
   amounts optimum for human health.   
      
   This product is completely organic and free of any pesticides,   
   synthetic ethylene and other man-made substances that compromise the   
   health of organisms and their human consumers. In addition, no   
   organisms used in the product are genetically-engineered or irradiated   
   to any extent. Equally important is the soil and other conditions used   
   to grow these organisms is healthy, organic, and free of pollutants.   
      
   Prior to the making of this product, all proteins & fats are pre-   
   digested completely, and the following substances are completely   
   removed from the organisms:   
      
   1. Any carbohydrate that raises blood sugar. Soluble fibers [such as   
   inulin] are not removed at all as they don’t count as net carbs and   
   actually benefit health. Simple sugars and digestible starches are   
   completely removed. Insoluble fibers [such as cellulose] are also   
   completely removed as they don’t offer much benefit other than to add   
   bulk to the stools. Non-fermentable carbohydrates not classified as   
   vitamins or fibers are also removed completely.   
   2. Glycerol [which is unnecessary calories and can be produced by the   
   body]   
   3. Saturated fatty acids [which contribute to atherosclerosis]   
   4. Trans fatty acids [which are far worse for health than saturated   
   fatty acids]   
   5. Any other substance that is scientifically-proven not to be   
   beneficial to – or necessary for – health.   
      
   All organisms used in this product – excluding tomatoes – are raw.   
   Tomatoes are boiled to bring out the lycopenes.   
      
   To make the product healthier, bad minerals [such as lead and   
   thallium] are completely removed [assuming any of them happen to   
   somehow be in the organisms]. To decrease blood pressure, sodium and   
   chloride are decreased [but not completely removed]. The sodium is   
   decreased as much as can be without leading to symptoms of sodium   
   deficiency. The chloride is decreased as much as possible without   
   causing any serious symptoms of chloride deficiency – the consumer   
   should still be able to safely perform tasks taken for granted – such   
   as driving or operating machinery. The decrease in chloride will help   
   balance out the acidity caused by ketosis. To help prevent kidney   
   stones during ketosis, extra potassium ions are added to the product.   
   The potassium is also alkaline and will further assist the body in   
   keeping itself non-acidic during ketosis. In addition, the extra   
   potassium is added because the body responds to chlorine deficiency by   
   making the kidneys excrete potassium. So more potassium must be   
   consumed to make up for this loss.   
      
   The removal of the aforementioned substances does not require the   
   addition of any chemicals or substances. This removal relies on a   
   nanotechnological device that recognizes all known chemicals by their   
   molecular structure. This hypothetical device is programmed to remove   
   the undesirables by capturing molecules analyzing their structure and   
   then separating them from the product. If the captured molecule is   
   desired for the product it is then mixed back into the product. None   
   of the desired chemicals in this product are altered in any way, shape   
   or form.   
      
   The product has drinking water added to it to make it easier to drink.   
      
   This product is in small health-friendly, eco-friendly bottles. Five   
   bottles per day should be consumed. The bottles are in a package and   
   are of different sizes. The biggest bottle should be consumed in the   
   morning. The smallest should be consumed in the evening. In between,   
   are bottles of different sizes. Earlier in the day, the bigger bottles   
   should be consumed and as the day progresses the smaller bottles   
   should be consumed. This routine follows the saying “eat breakfast   
   link a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper” – except   
   the food is divided into 5 smaller meals instead of 3 bigger meals.   
   This is an extra benefit to diabetes patients who are following this   
   hypothetical diet.   
      
   It is important to understand that this product will initially not   
   satiate it’s users. However, once ketosis kicks in, appetite will   
   decrease and consumers will no longer feel the urge to eat.   
      
   To summarize, the organisms in the product are chopped to the   
   molecular level. Second, the proteins/fats are pre-digested all the   
   way down to their monomers [amino acids in the case of proteins, fatty   
   acids & glycerol in the case of fats]. Third, the undesirable   
   substances are removed. Finally, good microbes, potassium ions, and   
   drinking water are added.   
      
   There still will be fat in this product, it's just that they will be   
   broken down to fatty acids [and the glycerol portions removed] prior   
   to bottling. Many fatty acids are necessary and/or beneficial for   
   health. They also assist in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.   
   However, the bad fatty acids will be removed completely.   
      
   If this product did exist it would greatly benefit obese patients. I   
   just wish someone would start a company, get the company to make this   
   theoretical product, and sell it to the general public at a reasonable   
   price. I am overweight with hypertension and at risk for stroke. I   
   don't want to end up paralyzed, blind, heart-attacked or otherwise   
   handicapped. That is why I want this product so badly. As said before,   
   I'd like to live off this entirely so I am completely non-disabled for   
   the rest of my life.   
      
   It is also extremely important to note that *physical exercise*   
   significantly contributes to health. So a combination of aerobic,   
   anaerobic, and stretch exercises -- when followed with this diet --   
   will really increase the quality of one's life.   
      
   Quality of life for me means being energetic during the day, calm at   
   night [when it's time for bed], and most importantly not suffering   
   from any handicap -- be it a heart attack, stroke, cancer, etc.   
      
   I must mention my cardiac CRP levels are high enough to indicate a   
   significant risk for heart disease.   
      
   Lord please convince someone to make this product and sell it at a   
   reasonable price to the public.   
      
   For as long as I'm alive, I want to be completely able to move, see,   
   speak, hear, and perform other tasks one would normally take for   
   granted.   
      
      
   Regards,
