I think Seraphina’s remedy diet would work wonders for sufferers. But she has me wondering how she came up with that wonderous remedy. Practical experience?
She can’t have acquired her knowledge from the Amish! 
I just concocted it from the dark web of my mind, except the absinthe. Straight up and you’ll forget all about your diet.
Not from the Amish, however, there are quite definitely Amish junk food junkies. The idea that they all eat such healthy foods as part of their religion isn’t true. The more conservative, the less diet conscious; the more liberal, the more diet conscious. I once drove a young Amish couple from northern NY to Indiana. Simon wanted to hit every interstate truck stop for whatever fast food they offered. It was harder to keep Simon’s belly filled than the gas tank of my car. Off the interstate, any gas station I stopped for gas and restrooms had to have an attached convenience store. Invariably, Simon would come out with bags of chips, cheese curls, Doritos, candy bars, six packs of Coke, Mountain Dew, sweet tea, you name it! Yes, Simon was obese, but somehow, it didn’t slow him down. He got his work done on the farm. His wife, Catherine was shaped like a bean pole. Shortly after they had their fourth baby, Simon had a heart attack at age 26. His wife, mother, mother-in-law, father-in-law, the preachers from church—two deacons, two ministers, and the bishop—his brothers, sisters, and a slew of doctors, gave him the business. The bishop put him in the Bann until he shed 50 pounds.
Much to his credit, he joined Overeaters Anonymous, lost the weight and kept it off. He passed away at age 60, result of a farm accident.
