My name is Benedicto Bobadilla Cortegana, I'm from Peru and I'm 55 years old. Before the challenge, as far as I was concerned, I had a healthy life, but I realised that a lot of what I thought was healthy actually wasn't healthy at all. I had small health problems, not very critical: slightly elevated cholesterol, prostatitis, gastritis... The reason for taking the challenge is that I wanted to correct these minor health problems through food alone, and I have really achieved very significant changes, not only have I corrected those issues. The areas where I've noticed the most change in my life are, the main and most important one is my relationship with food, it has changed drastically, I can be in control of what to eat and I have completely ruled out what isn't food, I have almost total control over choosing what to eat each day and I'm enjoying and finding a taste for my new food. I've lost 7 kg and now I'm 5 kg below my ideal weight, but I feel very good and I don't even have that need to gain weight. Several aspects of my health have improved and the most important thing is that, despite having very good self-esteem, I feel it has improved. I want to share my story because I want to contribute so that other people can come to have a healthier life, away from medications and doctors that are a scam, and to have real control over what they want to eat each day, far from the influence of the bad food industry that exists all over the world.

Mi nombre es Benedicto Bobadilla Cortegana, soy de Peru y tengo 55 años de edad. Antes del desafio, segun yo, tenia una vida saludable, pero me di cuenta de que habia mucho de lo que crei que era saludable, que en realidad no era para nada saludable, tenia pequeños problemas de salud no muy criticos, ligeramente elevado el colesterol, prostatitis, gastritis... La razon de tomar el desafio es que queria corregir estos ligeros problemas de salud solo en base a la comida y realmente he logrado cambios muy significativos, no solo he corregido dichos inconvenientes. Las areas que mas he notado un cambio en mi vida son, el principal y mas importante es mi relacion con la comida, esta ha cambiado drasticamente, puedo tener el control de lo que comer y he descartado totalmente la que no es comida, tengo el control casi total de elegir que comer cada dia y estoy disfrutando y encontrando el gusto a mi nueva comida. He bajado de peso 7 kg y ahora estoy 5 kg debeajo de mi peso ideal pero me siento muy bien e incluso no tengo esa necesidad de subir de peso, varios aspectos de mi salud han mejorado y lo mas importante es que a pesar de tener una muy buena autoestima, siento que esta ha mejorado. quiero compartir mi historia por que quiero aportar para que otras personas puedan llegar a tener una vida mas saludable, alejada de medicamentos y doctores que son una estafa y a tener el control real de lo que quieren comer cada dia, lejos de la influencia de la mal industria alimentaria existente en todo el mundo.
