“You’re putting on weight.”, ”When you tee-off, can you actually see the ball?” Fat remarks for the fat one. Obesity is an epidemic here too. We are a nation of fat, obese people. Lot’s of dieting programs & weight management programs have been created by all sorts of people to make monetary gains.
With all the advertisement & promises around they actually confused the “over-knowledgeable” consumer (consumers who think they know it all but probably know nuts or the wrong things). This is true as I’ve witnessed many a time at the Hypermarkets (Carrefour); cereal area. I once witnessed someone recommend a box of cereal to her friend (fat friend) it went something like this, “you should take this for meals.” “This is good, you’re sure to lose weight.” I too, went over to read the label of that box of cereal & guess what???? That fat person will be buying more clothes (bigger sizes) after a month or so. It’s filled with sugar & other lovely sweet, yummy ingredients but has the word “low fat” on it’s label. This is how confused the consumers are.
Weight management to me is nonsense. The true term is body composition management. Weight loss program is also nonsense. It should be fat loss program. The reason being, muscles are heavier as compared to fat. So if a person loses too much weight & look smaller, that’s what they are; smaller but not necessary leaner. You get the picture? Don’t feel too happy when you weigh yourself & see a drop in weight. You could be losing muscles. Losing muscles is the worse thing if you’re attempting to shed fats. Muscles are our natural fat burners. The lesser muscles you have, the more inefficient you’ll be at burning fat.
To actually lose fat & live with a great body there are a few factors to follow.
1. Diet - what to eat?
2. Exercise - workout - weights & cardio.
3. Drink enough water
4. Get enough sleep
5. Correct Nutrition
6. Start a new healthy lifestyle
We’ll return to these in a moment.
Lets take a look at diets. What is a diet? A diet simply means eating food in a certain way. Some people follow bigger diets. Some people follow smaller diets. Some people do not eat at all (just kidding). Here we will look at dieting for health, happiness & vitality.
There are all types of dieting program out there mainly targeting people who want to look good. Have you looked yourself in the mirror lately, naked, wide-eyed, wondering is that mirror okay? It’s probably not the mirrors fault no matter how much you want it to be. You’re out of shape. You’re plum. To be harsh…. You’re FAT. A longer word is obese. That’s reality.
There are millions of fat, obese people out there thanks to the improvement of technology which make things so easy & fast food. Dieticians, nutritionist & even doctors are to blame (not all of them) for coming out with diets that give people the temporary relieve of being fat. A lot of people have gone on diets, lost weight, looked smaller yet feel sick & weak. After the program, boom… fatter than ever. Ever wonder why?
In the past century; dieticians, doctors, & nutritionist have design all sort of diets from low protein diets, high protein diets, fruit diets, vegetarian diets, eat less diets, go hungry diets, etc. With all these diets around which happens to be a multibillion dollar industry, why are there so many fat, obese people around? The answer would have to be diets that don’t work.
Before you embark on your dieting program or body composition management program, answer these questions.
1. Why do I want to go on a diet?
2 . Am I going on a diet to be smaller & lighter or do I want to feel & actually be healthier?
3. Will I be able to follow the program until it becomes a part of my life?
4. Will I suffer or enjoy this program?
Lets look at the human body designed by God, that can never be created by science alone. The human body is made up of tissues, muscles, bones, veins, nerves, organs, etc. Each of these beautifully engineered part needs it’s fuel to continue working & living. If ever there is shortage of fuel or food, the body naturally takes action to protect itself.
The human body is like a world of it’s own with traffic flow, traffic police, cars, trucks & workers. What I want you to focus on here is the body’s traffic police team. What ever you eat goes into your mouth, oesophagus, stomach, etc. and reaches this police (copper). The copper will tell it where to go to. Here’s a simple example. You put a piece of tuna mayo, sandwich into your mouth. When it reaches the cop, the cop direct Tuna fish into the protein storage, mayonnaise and bread into carbohydrate storage, lettuce, tomatoes & onions will be broken down & directed to fiber storage. At the storage area other coppers will break down the food & direct different parts to different storage areas. Protein feeds the muscles. Carbohydrate feeds the brain, skin, etc. (turns to fat as well). Sugar turns to fat. Fiber cleans the stomach, encourages fat cells to come get stuck to it. This is called “Nutrient Partitioning.” Whatever that is not wanted will be cleared out of the system the next time you visit the loo. That’s basically what happens when you eat.
Now that you know a little bit of the system our bodies are made to follow, you know that it is important to eat right. Your body needs fuel to survive, work, play, most importantly, to keep you alive. Take care of it.
What about diets & dieting? From the above, whatever you know about dieting makes sense. Eat less food per serving, eat more vegetables, fruits, drink lots of water, cut down meat, eat 2 eggs a week because they are high in cholesterol, miss a meal, take a fiberous drink instead, jog an hour daily, etc., etc. Wait a minute….. Haven’t you been doing just that? Now, all those nonsense that you’ve read & study about are just that. Pure rubbish.
Let’s go deeper into our body system. Our body has it’s own natural defence system. You heard of white blood cells? This is different. A long time ago (stone age), food was scarce. The people then ate only when they get food. There are times when they have to survive days without much food. The human body goes into survival mode. This is called “Starvation mode.” Your body turns food to fat which will be used as fuel to keep the human body alive.
Many of us have been told to stick to three main meals a day & not eat in between or you’ll get fat. Many of you walked around hungry with the mistaken belief that eating is what makes you fat. From the perspective of our metabolism, we’ve been eating wrong. Actually, your metabolism works best when it is fed through out the day. This is possible today as food is not scarce anymore. You should divide your meals evenly into at least 6 meals a day. Spread them out. Feed your body no more than three hours apart. This will help your body re-adapt.
Here’s a surprise. The mere act of eating turns up metabolism. When you eat, you stimulate your body to burn more energy. Second, your body needs a constant supply of enough amino acids to make muscle & do other essential metabolic tasks. If you don’t take enough protein throughout the day, your level of available amino acids will inevitably drop. When one system in your body is deprived of amino acids to function, it will take it from other sources, & muscle is the richest source. If you rob your muscles & other storage sites of protein, you will steadily deplete your muscles & bring new muscle production to a grinding halt. Now, you do not want that to happen. God has given us natural fat burners to burn off excessive fat. These fat burners are your muscles. The more muscles you lose, the more difficult it is to lose fat. On the other hand, if you keep amino acid levels constant throughout the day, through a steady intake of protein, there will be enough amino acids on hand to do the body’s work without wholesale pillaging of your muscles. Stop living in starvation mode & eat.
That’s protein. What about carbohydrates? Carbohydrate is as important as protein. We need carbohydrate (carbs) as energy fuel for our body & most importantly, brain. Yes carbohydrates do turn to fat. Not all actually. Don’t go on counting calories just yet. Eating the right amounts of carbohydrates is essential. Take bananas for example. This particular carb, is low in fat & contains approx. 3 grams of fiber. Although the word fat is used, it doesn’t mean that you will grow fat by eating bananas. This fat is actually used as energy by the body. It’s good fat. The fat you don’t want comes from sugar (glucose). Contrary to ancient belief, sugar is not used as energy but turned to fat at the Nutrient Partitioning stage. Yes, you will feel energetic for a moment because it triggers a sharp insulin spike, but your energy level will drop below the level you started at. Yes, sugar is carbohydrate as well. Bad one. It’s classified as starchy carbohydrate, which is a “Negative Nutrient Partitioning Agent.”(turned directly to fat when it reaches the copper).
Here’s one to be cautious about. Fructose Corn Syrup. Now that is the Bad “F” word you want to remember. Go into your kitchen today & start reading food labels. You will notice that Fructose Corn Syrup is a common ingredient in all processed or prepared foods. Fructose is a particular kind of sugar, that is present in a wide assortment of processed foods, including baked items, soups, snacks, soda, condiments, frozen entrees, breakfast cereals, and candy bars. Fructose was developed as a low cost alternative to sucrose, or what we call table sugar. Today fructose is not just used as a sweetener. It has became a multi purpose food additive. In Many products, it is not just an additive but a major ingredient as it extends the shelf life of foods. A little bit of fructose is okay as long as it is used the way it’s meant to be used.
There is compelling scientific evidence that fructose, more than any other single ingredient , is responsible for the obesity epidemic sweeping the U.S. & many parts of the world. Over-consumption of fructose is the caused of the unprecedented rise in obesity among children & teenagers, many of whom consume an endless stream of soda, snacks, & lots of other fructose laden foods.
Ironically, fructose has been promoted as being healthier that table sugar, when research shows it to be much worse. I am not suggesting that table sugar is good food. It is not. As I’ve explained earlier sugar (starchy carbohydrate) are precisely the wrong food for our metabolism because they are negative nutrient partitioning agents that promote the storage of fat. But as problematic as sugar is, fructose is worse.
I want to assure you that if you occasionally eat a food product containing fructose, you will not be endangering your health. Let me explain why. Fructose when used as an additive and not a primary ingredient (the way it’s meant to be used), fructose is harmless.
Fructose, also known as levulose, or fruit sugar, is found in small amounts in fruits & to a lesser extent in vegetables & in higher concentrations in juice. It is the sweetest of the various kinds of sugars, High-fructose corn syrup, which is identical to the fructose found in nature, is a chemically altered version of corn syrup.
I am not suggesting that you stop eating fruits because they contain fructose. Despite their sweet taste, when you eat fruits, you actually get a tiny amount of pure fructose along with other good stuff, like water, fiber, & beneficial phytochemicals (disease-fighting substances), vitamins & minerals. When you eat processed food with fructose, you are getting a highly concentrated form of fructose minus all the goodies.
When it was first introduced, High-fructose corn syrup was thought to be a healthier sweetener, because when fructose is metabolized it doesn’t trigger as sharp a spike in insulin levels as table sugar does. Elevated insulin levels are linked to several health problems, including insulin resistance, Syndrome X, & type 2 or adult-onset diabetes. You may already be familiar with the glycemic index (GI), which is a system for rating foods according to how they affect blood sugar & insulin levels. Foods with low GI ratings are considered to be healthier than those with high GI ratings, because they stimulate the release of less insulin. On the glycemic scale, table sugar rates a high 59. High-fructose corn syrup rates a low 20. Due to its low GI rating, fructose has been touted as a safe sugar for diabetics. However there is substantial evidence that fructose poses a far more serious health threat than table sugar does. Indeed, scientist believe that the health risk associated with table sugar results from the fact that table sugar is 50% fructose.
Although fructose does not cause an immediate spike in glucose & insulin levels, there is compelling scientific evidence, dating back to the 1960’s , that shows the less immediate but long-term damaging effects of fructose. Dr. John Yudkin, M.D., chairman of the Department of Nutrition at London’s Queen Elizabeth College, was one of the first researchers to call attention to the link between heart disease & sugar consumption. Dr. Yudkin discovered that a diet high in sucrose (table sugar) resulted in elevated blood levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin, cortisol, & uric acid. What about fructose? When Dr. Yudkin performed the same experiment using fructose instead of sucrose, he found that fructose caused blood levels of cholesterol & triglycerides to soar nearly twice as high. The more fructose we eat the lesser our HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol that is good cholesterol, which prevents heart disease.
This are fruits & vegetables that can be found everywhere. Fiber plays a very important part in your diet. It cleanses the Gastrointestinal Track, & helps remove fat from your system. Generally all carbohydrates with fiber are good. Look at the classification of protein & carbohydrate which is attached.
Since protein is muscle food, & muscles are your natural fat burners, protein must be a vital part of your diet. While eating more protein will get you in fat burning mode, eating more fiber will help keep you there. When fiber is digested, it is fermented in the gut & converted into short chain fatty acids, which can be burned for fuel. The burning of fatty acids from fiber sends a signal to your fat cells telling them to release fat, which your body uses for fuel. The fiber in food also gives you the sensation of feeling full, so you feel more satisfied after eating it.
Unfortunately, fiber has been removed from the modern food chain supply. Over the past 50 years, modern agriculture has stripped every last bit of fiber out of most of the bread, rice, & cereals sold in grocery stores. Getting rid of fiber is great for manufacturers, because it increases the shelf life of their products, but it’s deadly for us.
Starchy carbohydrates are rice, bread, potatoes, yams, (see food classification). Starchy carbohydrate must be reduced, not eliminated. I’m sure, you are aware of the hundreds of diet programs today that tells you to eliminate starchy carbs or they enforce bizarre restrictions; for example, you can’t eat them with meat, or you can’t eat them with fruit. These approaches are just plain silly. If you like these foods by all means eat them. You can mix and match them however you like. The protein & fiber in your diet will keep you in fat burning mode as long as you stay within the carbohydrate guidelines.
Most fat comes from protein source, as protein inevitably contains fat. There is no reason to count fat grams, but you must not add extra fat to your food. If you use butter or salad dressing, do so sparingly. Do not eliminate fat from your diet. Fat is an important nutrient: It’s essential for many bodily processes. Extremely low fat diets will dry out your skin & nails, make you tired & leave you hungry. Too little fat in your diet can slow down fat burning.
There are many different types of fat in the food we eat. Some are better for us than others. Dietary fats come in three varieties: saturated fat, polyunsaturated fat, & monounsaturated fat. The three fats differ in chemical structure, notably in the number of hydrogen molecules. Saturated fats found primarily in foods of animal origin, like fatty cuts of meat, & whole fat dairy products. Plant source of saturated fat include peanut butter & coconut. Some saturated fat may raise blood cholesterol levels & increase the risk of having a heart attack or stroke. Therefore, I recommend that you limit your intake of saturated fat by sticking to the leanest cuts of meat & low fat or non-fat dairy products.
Not all saturated fat is created equal. The visible layer of fat outside the actual meat portion, or the muscle, is far worse for you than the fat within the muscle in terms of raising blood cholesterol levels. In fact some studies suggest that the fat within the muscle of red meat may actually cut cholesterol levels. So when you eat red meat, trim off the outer excess fat.
Polyunsaturated fats are found primarily in vegetable oils & margarine made from plant sources. These fats are reasonably healthy in limited quantities, & some of them (safflower oil, canola oil, & sunflower oil) may reduce blood cholesterol levels. They don’t, however, have as much flavour as olive oil, a monounsaturated oil that is just as healthy & taste better. Omega-3 fatty acids found in fatty fish are a special type of polyunsaturated fat that appears to be quite beneficial. Lots of studies have documented the positive health effects of these fats, which have been shown to lower blood triglyceride levels, reduce the risk of blood clots, & reduce inflammation, & may help prevent certain forms of cancer.
There is however one kind of fat that you must avoid at all cost, trans-fatty acids. Some polyunsaturated oils & margarine undergo a process called hydrogenation to make them useful for baking & increase their shelf life. This process creates trans-fatty acids. Trans-fatty acids may become incorporated within cell membranes, making them rigid, which can interfere with normal cell function. Over time, a diet high in trans- fatty acids can increase the risk of insulin resistance, high cholesterol, & cancer. Trans-fatty acids are found in processed, refined grain products (including cookies, cakes, breads, chips, & other junk foods), & deep fried foods. Obviously you should steer clear of these fats, but doing so is not as easy as it sounds. The Food & Drug (FDA) does not require manufacturers to list trans-fatty acids on food labels, although the agency is reconsidering that rule. Even though a label may say that a product is cooked in vegetable oils or is low in saturated fat, it may very well contain trans-fatty acids. Unless a label clearly states that it contains NO TRANS-FATTY ACIDS, you have to assume that most processed foods & margarines do.
Note - Oils like safflower oil, canola oil, olive oil, etc… must never be cooked or used for cooking as the act of heating these oils creates trans-fatty acids.
Stop counting calories. Wait a sec. What about calories? It’s common knowledge that consuming too many calories will make you fat & cutting back on calories will make you slim. According to the calorie theory, that what you eat doesn’t matter; how many calories you eat does.
Now, the common knowledge is wrong. No one has proven the calorie theory to be true. There is not one study done to show that if you feed people the same amount of excess calories, they will all gain the same amount of weight. Nor has anyone shown that if you deprive people of the same amount of calories, they will all lose the same amount of weight. Human metabolism is far more complicated than that.
Calorie intake by itself does not determine body composition. The quality of the food you eat is even more important than the quantity. We all know people who eat relatively few amount of calories & still have a high amount of body fat. Despite their miserly diets, these people actually look over weight. They may even believe in some bankrupt theory about a slow metabolism or some such nonsense. We also know people who eat many calories but who are muscular, trim & strong. Why? NUTRIENT PARTITIONING. Nutrient partitioning is a phenomenon that puts calories in their place.
Now you know that calorie counting diets don’t work. Unfortunately, the medical establishment in the U.S. has become so fixated on the calorie hypothesis that it automatically rejects any other theory, even when good science supports it. That is why you still find so many doctors, dieticians, etc. telling you to count calories. I don’t think it is fun carrying a weighing machine everywhere you go to eat for the rest of your life.
European scientist are light years ahead of the Americans in the study & acceptance of Nutrient Partitioning. It was first done on live-stocks. This research produced ground breaking findings that clearly demonstrates that the manipulation of the type of food fed to animals - not necessarily the number of calories - could create leaner or fatter animals. Later studies proved that the same principles work for humans. Recently it has attracted the attention of body builders, because victory in a body building competition can be as slim as a few ounces of fat.
-Dr. A. Scott Connelly, MD. : It wasn’t until I worked with patients who were suffering from wastage syndrome that I understand the power of nutrient partitioning. Wasting syndrome is a problem that often follows a severe injury or a severe illness. Even when wasting patients are fed an extra ordinarily high calorie diet - up to 5,000 calories daily - they do not necessarily gain weight. I saw many overfed wasting patients die from starvation. I didn’t need much proof that there were big holes in the calorie theory. There had to be another powerful force regulation metabolism. Years later I realized that the same force that was causing wasting disease could operate in reverse to make people fat.
Obesity & wasting are both nutrient partitioning problems due to a metabolic breakdown. In the case of obesity, the metabolic traffic cops are so overwhelmed by a flood of negative partitioning agents that they divert too many nutrients to the fat parking lot & not enough to the lean muscle parking lot. Thus there is too much fat & too little lean muscle. In the case of wasting, the metabolic police are so overwhelmed by the enormous demands imposed on illness that there is a complete derangement in metabolism. Starved for the right nutrients, the body begins to feed on itself.
In the wasting syndrome, nutrients from food are not stored: They are burned for fuel. Despite a high calorie intake, the body is starved for more nutrients & will begin to devour it’s own tissues. Muscle is the first to go. Why? Muscle is the primary source of amino acids, the building blocks of protein, which are critical for the normal function of many systems, including the immune system & the brain. When you’re wasting, your body rapidly depletes its stores of amino acids, which is why you quickly lose muscle tone & strength. From My own experience as a bodubuilder, I knew that the more protein I ate, the more muscle I made. During those rare times I stopped my high protein regimen, I lost ground. I realized that simply inundating the body with calories wasn’t going to stop wasting. In order to reverse wasting, you have to give the body the right balance of amino acids so that it will no longer deplete it’s own muscle. That’s precisely why my high protein formula worked, whereas the standard high calorie diet did not. Once the metabolic police were given the right nutrients to meet the body’s need, they were able to restore normal metabolic traffic, & the wasting syndrome stopped. Paradoxically, the same approach works for obesity, but for different reasons. If you provide the metabolic police with the right nutrients, you will correct the metabolic glitch that is forcing the body to sock away fat & not make muscle. Just adding calories will not cure wasting, simply taking away calories will not cure obesity.
3,500 calories = 1 pound of Fat. This is a myth.
Let me give you some examples of nutrient partitioning in action that also demonstrate why calorie theory is at best only part of the story. In a ground breaking study conducted at a major Canadian university, 12 sets of twins (male) were overfed 1,000 calories a day for 84 days, a total of 84,000 excess calories per twin. If as commonly believed, 3,500 extra calories is equal to one pound of fat, than each man should gain 24 pounds of fat over the course of the experiment, right? Wrong! Some men gained as few as 9 and a half pounds while others gained as many as 29 pounds. Moreover, even though lean mass & muscle actually weigh more than fat, the men who put on the least weight were those who gained primarily lean mass & muscle, not fat. Why? Because of Nutrient Partitioning.
The men in the study who put on the most weight were governed by traffic cops that tended to divert nutrients toward the fat parking lot. Those who gained primarily lean mass & Muscle were governed by those that tended to divert nutrients to the lean muscle parking lot. Although there was a wide variation in weight gain between groups of twins, individual twin pairs showed a similar tendency to be either fat or lean. The twin in each set had similar tendency to be fat storers or fat burners.
This study also confirms the role of genetics in determining body types. A lucky few may eat all they want & still stay lean & slim. Like the twin in the study that gained the least amount of weight, the lucky individuals are more likely to build muscle mass & burn more fat. Most of us however are not so lucky. Most people are generally programmed to be fat storers. Nevertheless this doesn’t mean that we have to throw in the towel & accept a less than desirable body composition. It does mean that we have to be more careful with what we eat, & in particular, choose foods that help us overcome our genetic disadvantage & reprogram our metabolic traffic system.
Note : Those were the words of Dr. A Scott Connelly, MD.
After reading all these words & making sense of it, I am sure you know why so many dieting programs fail. What you’ve read actually contradicts what you already know, right? So it’ll only make sense that for a dieting program to really work it should sound silly.
Lets recap.
.
1. To lose fat you must eat more.
2. To lose fat you must eat right.
3. To lose fat you must stop counting calories but use Nutrient Partitioning.
4. To lose fat you must not suffer.
5. To stay lean you must enjoy your program.
Forget about dieting programs. What you need is a new life style. A eat healthy, stay happy lifestyle. If you’re willing to do this, I guarantee you’ll see changes in 6 months. In fact you’ll start seeing changes right from the first month it. Why not a program but a lifestyle? Because a program is merely a program that you follow for a certain amount of time and at the end, see the results, smile, & that’s it. Back to normal bad habits. A lifestyle is different. You’re incorporating a new way of living which you’ll follow subconsciously and not give much thought about what to do next.
Here’s what to do. First weigh yourself. Write it down. Next measure yourself: your waist, arms, legs, etc. Write it down. That’ll be the last time you weigh yourself to see how light you are. You can store the weighing machine somewhere for later use. Weight is not how you will define whether you’re fat or lean anymore. As muscles are heavier than fat, being lighter doesn’t mean that you’re getting leaner. It could mean that you’ve gained fat & loss some muscles.
Rule No. 1: Food is no. 1
Food is the number one tool for transforming your body. To achieve a stronger, sculpted, leaner body, you must give your metabolism the raw materials it needs to start burning fat & building muscles. Expect a lot from food! Every meal you eat should work with your metabolism, not against it. Eating well is also the key factor to health. It is the single most important factor in avoiding diabetes, heart diseases, high blood pressure, many forms of cancer, & premature aging. In sum, if you cant to look & feel terrific, eat as though your life depended on it.
Rule No. 2 : Simplicity Rules
When it comes to food, simplicity rules. With rare exceptions, most people eat the same 12 to 15 foods over & over again, day in day out. The problem is that we often eat the wrong ones. You will choose your favourite foods from the list of high-quality proteins, fruits, & vegetables, & breads, & starches. You will then design your daily diet around these foods. There’s nothing wrong with variety but remember, keep it simple & you’ll succeed.
Rule No. 3 : Eat Often & Eat Enough
Get out of the Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner rut. Eat! Eat at least 6 times a day! Eat whenever you are hungry (as long as you eat the right foods) The only way for you to fail in this program is if you do not eat enough (or eat the wrong foods). It is essential to eat enough to keep your metabolism burning. It is essential to feed your body every 2 to 3 hours the fuel it needs to burn. Skipping meals & cutting calories will not improve your body; It’ll hinder fat burning. This is especially true for women, who are natural fat storers. The trick is to load up on foods that stimulate the fat-burning-muscle-building mechanism. Eating 6 times a day may sound difficult but it’s not. In fact you are probably doing that daily. Every time you put a candy, chocolate or cookie in your mouth, you’re having a meal. It is the wrong type of food but it’s still a meal. You’ve now got to change that cookie for protein & fiber. Simple. So go on & enjoy 6 to 8 meals of the right stuff!
Rule No. 4 : It’s About Protein & Fiber
Protein & Fiber keeps your body trim & strong. You need adequate amounts of both to build muscle at the expense of fat. Be vigilant about eating enough high quality protein rich & fiber-rich foods. Protein provides the amino acids you need to operate your metabolism & other vital systems. Fiber stimulates fat burning & helps counteract the damaging effect of high glucose producing carbohydrates such as grains. This winning combination will keep you sleek & lean.
Rule No. 5 : Just Say No To Fructose
Just because food manufacturers put fructose into their products, it doesn’t mean that you have to eat it. Just don’t buy it. Read labels & you’ll quickly know which products contain fructose 7 which do not. If you keep children fructose free, you will go a long way in helping them to avoid abesity & serious metabolic problems down the road. Avoid table sugar as well.
Rule No. 6 : When You Get Control Of Your Body, You get Control Of Your Life
it’s not just about having a terrific body: it’s about achieving your full potential, physically & mentally. Sure, it’s wonderful to look in the mirror & say “Hey, I look great.” But you also gain so much more in the process. You will be empowered by a new found confidence, knowing that you radiate health & vitality. You will have the strength & stamina to do the things that you once thought impossible.
