阅读理解 Diet Coke, diet Pepsi, diet pills, fat diet, vegetable diet. surrounded by the word 'diet' everyw we look and listen. We have so easily attracted by the promise and potential of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically and physically (身体上). Diet products significantly weaken us psychologically. On one level, we are not allowing our brains to admit that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fatty, high-calorie, unhealthy foods. Diet products allow us to jump over the thinking stage and go straight for the scale c秤) instead. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word 'diet' in food labels. On another level, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves without our awareness that we don-t have to work to get results. Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle. The er of diet products lies not only in the psychological effects they have on us. but also in the physical harm that they cause. Diet foods can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are pring our bodies from having basic nutrients (营养成分). Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie only because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemicals that go into diet products are potentially erous. Now that we are aware of the effects that diet products have on us, it is time to seriously think about buying them. Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of medicals. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, and therefore pr the psychological and physical harm that comes from using them. 1. From Paragraph l, we learn that _____.
