Christian Symbols and Their Meanings Christian symbols began in the Roman Catacombs to tell a story. Here are some meanings and history to some of them.

Diet Plan Articles
17 Day Diet - Dr. Michael Rafael Moreno is the creator of the 17-Day Diet. Dr. Moreno’s diet has to do with calorie and carb confusion. If you confuse your body about the amount of calorie and carbs it takes in, then it won’t become complacent and stop losing weight. His philosophy is that if you change up the healthy way you are eating every couple of weeks, it will trick your body. When you change up what you eat or the exercise you do all the time, your body never gets used to it, so it doesn’t plateau as easily. If you eat the same things all the time, or exercise the same way all the time, your body gets used to it, and will simply plateau. The 17-Day Diet is meant to stop that from happening, and will also teach you a very healthy way of eating for the rest of your life.

The Paleo Diet Plan Our ancient ancestors ate a very different diet from the one most of us consume today. Some suggest that a diet modeled after the caveman provides the nutrition for which our bodies are most genetically suited. During the Paleolithic Era, grains, beans, and potatoes were considered inedible, as they contain many toxins in their raw state and the idea of cooking them had not yet entered the picture. Referred to as the Paleo or the Caveman diet, this food plan is rich in animal fats and whole foods, completely devoid of processed foods. The Paleo diet is believed to help prevent the diseases of the civilized man such as osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s, obesity, and type-2 diabetes.
