The Maker’s Diet

As a God-fearing person, I was especially interested in learning more about The Maker’s Diet, which claims to be a diet program based on God’s teachings. As a professional, I also try to stay impartial with respect to religious ideals as this can become very dangerous ground.   However, with respect to The Maker’s Diet, I can remain neither impartial as a believer nor a professional.  The Makers Diet has all of the makings of the most insidious scam I have ever heard of.

What is The Maker’s Diet all about?

If you check out the website, you will find explanations such as “Just as God handed down His moral law in the Ten Commandments, the dietary guidelines he set down were designed to preserve our health. God’s dietary guidelines are not some narrow-minded religious exercise meant to set apart certain people from their neighbors. They were given by a loving God to save His people.”

This is fair enough and I can respect the idea and even accept it, however what I cannot accept is the blatant use of God’s name to market marginally effective diet and acne products.  You heard me right.  Looking further into their “A Day on the Diet” section, I find their schedule to include such “godly” recommendations as “Clenzology®: Comprehensive cleansing system for face and hands” followed by morning prayer.  I am pretty sure to anyone schooled in Judeo-Christian theology, this will be recognized pretty clearly as breaking at least one of the commandments.

But beyond all of the religious theory, the sheer audacity of using the name of God to make some money is absolutely horrendous.

As a believer and a professional reviewer, I recommend you stay the hell away from The Maker’s Diet (no pun intended).  Belief in God is great, but don’t fall for this scam.
