Polarity is an equally pervasive force as a habit of thinking. W e often act as if all questions have a right or wrong answer, all statements are either true or false, people are either good or bad, normal or abnormal. Either a thing is real or it isn't. Either you are with me or against me. Sometimes these categories are useful, but they can also be limiting and may not adequately represent reality. Polarization is a powerful force in politics and rhetoric, allowing leaders and propagandists to mobilize anger and passion by artificially dividing the world into " u s " and "them" categories, a simplification of the world that makes it easier to deal with, but ignores many intermediate or alternative points of view. However, polarity is a real phenomenon in human relationships and an important engine of conflict in storytelling. Characters in relationships strongly tend to become polarized as part of their process of growing and learning through conflict
Scientists seem to change their minds every six months. Eggs and butter will kill you, so you turn to margarine and turkey bacon. Now margarine will kill you and one egg a day is okay?! It almost seems better to opt out completely and live in ignorance. Fortunately, science isn't arbitrary. In fact, you just need to learn a few simple concepts to separate the truth (or probable truth) from complete fiction. Most research is presented to the public through media or propagandists with agendas. Since diet is most often hijacked for selling newspapers and ideologies, we'll use almost-believable diet nonsense to develop our BS meter. To create the most perfect you, you need to know diet nonsense to develop our BS meter. To create the most perfect you, you need to know which science to follow and which "science" to ignore. After reading the next eight pages, you will know more about research studies than the average MD. The Big Five
