Why “One-Size-Fits-All” Diets Don’t Work

We often hear that a balanced diet is the key to good health. But have you ever noticed that what works perfectly for one person doesn’t always work for another?
That’s because each of us is unique. Our pH levels, mineral balance, and how efficiently our body uses energy can be very different.
One important factor is our basal metabolism -the energy our body needs just to keep us alive when we rest. Even when we’re not moving, our body still burns calories to support breathing, heart rate, and other vital functions.
Another factor is called non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT) - that’s the energy we use for everyday movements that aren’t workouts, like walking, cleaning, or even fidgeting.
Many people think that if they eat enough protein, healthy fats, and complex carbs, they’re automatically getting all the nutrients they need. But the truth is it’s not only what we eat that matters, it’s also how well our body absorbs and uses it.
For example, if your stomach doesn’t make enough hydrochloric acid, even the healthiest food won’t be fully digested or absorbed.
Another hidden factor that can influence how we feel and even our weight - is the presence of heavy metals in the body. They can interfere with mineral balance, slow down metabolism, and make it harder to maintain a healthy weight.
That’s why a simple, non-invasive test like HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) can be so helpful. It shows your individual mineral patterns, possible heavy metal buildup, and helps you understand what your body truly needs to feel balanced and energized.
