What Is the Design of Molecules?
One limitation of an ink-and-paper representation of molecules is that it
often fails to truly capture the three-dimensional beauty of molecules. For
example, DNA molecules exist in a spiral staircase design, while many
protein molecules appear to be all bunched (or "globbed") up. The three-
dimensional design of a molecule helps determine what that molecule can
do (its properties). Furthermore, we will see that many of the important
molecules in our body are actually combinations of smaller molecules.
For instance, proteins are made from amino acids, and fat molecules are
made from fatty acids and glycerol.

Like everyone else
Like everyone else, I started off by trying to apply the usual weight-loss rules and, like everyone else, I became thoroughly disillusioned with the lack of positive results.
But soon afterwards, as luck would have it, I came across a general practitioner with a keen interest in nutritional problems. He gave me some advice, and the guidelines he suggested to me seemed to call into question the fundamental basis of traditional dietetics.
It was not long before I was achieving very promising results. So I then decided to delve further into the theory. This I was quite well placed to do, as I worked for a pharmaceutical company and found it relatively easy to come by the scientific information I needed.
Within a few weeks I had gathered together most of the French and American papers which existed on the subject. I already knew that certain rules brought results, but I wanted to get to the root of the scientific explanations, to know how and in what circumstances the rules would work and what limits there might be to their effectiveness.
