So when you eat a Donut or a piece of Cheese Pizza – the body has to search out the complementary B vitamins, enzymes, vitamins and minerals from somewhere in your body (since it is not in the food)  to actually process this food. Every transaction the body makes “costs” 19 different nutrients. If it is not there in the food or in your reserve, then the body has to borrow, beg and steal!

Think about it like this – when you go to the bank in order to take money out – you had to first make a deposit. The money has to be in your account to draw upon when you need it.  Your check needs to have some cash to back it up.  Every function in the body, whether it is the act of breathing, thinking, exercise, the creation of energy and every other vital transaction your body makes REQUIRES vitamins and minerals as the foundation of the chemical transaction.  When you take in “empty calories” from junk or highly processed food your body does not get the nutrients to use for these vital functions. Eventually your body breaks down.

Enzymes are essential to digest and process EVERYTHING you come into contact with – supplemental enzymes will break down foods, eliminate toxins and also decrease inflammation in the body from metabolic by products.

If you are experiencing any of the following, you would benefit from supplemental enzymes:

• heartburn GERD
• constipation
• skin problems
• joint aches
• low energy
• poor immune function

Avocados, walnuts, coconut oil are all a healthy fat that not only boosts metabolism but also supports your body’s utilization of fat soluble vitamins like A,D,E and K.

As a member of Master your Metabolism, you have access to the program, Battle Against Butter, that chronicles the 1920′s to today with eating patterns and heart disease. It is not what you think!

An over abundance of carbohydrates, especially refined and high glycemic carbohydrates, shuts down fat burning. Fats, especially, medium chain triglycerides are not easily converted and stored by the body nor readily used by the body to make larger fat cells. Research as well real life anecdotals demonstrate when medium chain triglycerides like coconut oil and butter are substituted for long chain triglycerides as in the vegetable plant oils (polyunsaturated oils), the body is much less inclined to store fat. Taking in coconut oil tells your body to burn fat!

Does everyone lose weight eating more coconut oil? Not everyone, Women on the pill have reported gaining weight. Some people report not losing weight but actually having increased muscle mass and firmer tissues, helping their clothes fit better.

In order to lose weight, adding in MCT or coconut oil is just part of the story. It is important to also reduce and or eliminate refined carbs, breads, pasta, white potatoes as well as reducing and or eliminating partially hydrogenated oils. For more on shifting you to a fat burning mode, learn to Master Your Metabolism!

If you think you aren’t addicted – then try giving up anything that has any sugar on the label! You will know when you see what happens WITHOUT IT!

Once you start reading labels, you will realize EVERYTHING has added sugar! Most of the time, the sweetners are multiplied with not only sugar but one or SEVERAL of these: corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, acesulfame K, maltose and you may even see aspartame and splenda just to make it that much sweeter without the calories.

As a member of Master your Metabolism you have access to , “How Sweet Is It?” one of our many programs to help you understand more about healthy lifestyle. “How Sweet Is It” focuses on the sweeteners used in the food supply and their impact on your metabolism, cravings and health. Our programs are done in audio, video, ebooks and are engaging and informative.

America is hooked on sugar

“If Americans could eliminate sugary beverages, potatoes, white bread, pasta, white rice and sugary snacks, we would wipe out almost all the problems we have with weight and diabetes and other metabolic diseases.”  Dr. Willet Harvard School of Public Health

Here are some facts:

US is No. 1 IN THE WORLD for Chronic Degenerative Disease. That is right, we top every single country, Third World or otherwise for chronic disease. These are LIFESTYLE diseases. We are not even in the top 30 for health! Somewhere BELOW Ethiopia.

We eat LESS potatoes, breads that our grandparents and we are fattter and sicker than they ever were.

Where or where is my Cinnabon, Pretzel Annie, Brownie Surprise and Funnel Cake?

We consume Sodas to the exclusion of water and FRESH juice. Ok, so a little caffeine never hurt anyone? Wrong again, in children there are problems with caffeine and the artificial stimulation has further contributed to the chronic stress, attention and focus problems maxing out the adrenal glands and packing on the pounds around everyone’s middle even the eight year olds.

Here are just a few of the conditions that would benefit TREMENDOUSLY from a decrease in sugar consumption.

• Arthritis,
• Fatigue,
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome,
• Weight gain
• Heart Disease
• Diabetes

The average American, man, woman and child consumes over 200 lbs of sugar per year! In the 1800′s it was only a few TEASPOONS!!!

Sugar creates its own addiction. The more you eat, the more you want. There are reasons for this not the least of which is yeast overgrowth.

Learn more about yeast overgrowth... see if you would benefit from a cleanse. Yeast can become chronic and is often an untreated source for illness and chronic disease.

You will NEVER realize HOW GOOD YOU CAN FEEL until you come off sugar.   Give yourself a break and go off it for 2 weeks – we can help!

I want help coming off sugar! Join Master your Metabolism to learn more about healthy diet, protecting yourself and LIVING WELL!

A healthy GI tract is much more than a tube that funnels food through your system. Your intestines are a major contributor to your immune system keeping you from catching colds and flu as well as boosting your mood. Did you know there is more serotonin, the feel good chemical, produced in your bowel than in brain?!  This is true so your ability to feel good, keep anxiety low begins in your bowel.  Your bowel is also where all nutrients get absorbed to be used in the liver and throughout your body for complex and vital functions.   Your bowel is one place  toxins are bound up and released - or not - depending upon the health of your bowel.

So to keep it simple, take enzymes. Enzymes are one of the single most important supplements. Stress, age, processed food, sensitivities all interfere with the body’s ability to break down and absorb food.   Our product is a comprehensive formula especially for people/children with dairy and wheat sensitivities.

Excellent Formula esp for wheat and milk

Vital-zymes is a complete formula – this is a great product and works well with ADHD, children on the spectrum and anyone with milk and wheat problems..   Label

Enzymes can often be a great anti-dote for

• heart burn,
• overeating,
• constipation,
• IBS,
• lactose problems,
• wheat intolerance
• inflammation
• skin problems and so much more.

Fat is not really the enemy and cholesterol is needed by every cell in your body. Learn more about what cholesterol does and why your body depends on it!

Grains should be kept to minimum and only consist of WHOLE GRAINS.  On the food label, the first ingredient needs to read “whole grain” flour to be considered truly whole grain.

Here is a list of foods that have been shown to nudge cholesterol levels  in the right direction. Go ahead and bring some of these whole foods into your daily diet.

1. Almonds (Raw) Approx 1 small handful daily

Helps prevent LDL “bad” cholesterol from being oxidized, a process that can damage the lining of blood vessels and increase cardiovascular risk.

2. Avocados

The monounsaturated fats in avocados have been found to lower “bad” LDLs and raise “good” HDLs… high in calories so it is important to take this into consideration if weight loss is also your goal. Consider having celery and vegetables with your avocado dip opposed to Tortilla chips.  Use 1/4 avocado slices in salads.

3. Barley

When volunteers in a U.S. Department of Agriculture study added barley to the standard American Heart Association diet, LDL “bad” cholesterol levels fell more than twice as far.

4. Beans and lentils

From a recent study in the Annals of Internal Medicine, LDL “bad” cholesterol levels fell almost twice as far in those volunteers on a low-fat diet who added beans and lentils along with more vegetables to the menu.

5. Blueberries

Blueberries contain a powerful antioxidant called pterostilbene that may help lower LDL cholesterol.

6. Oats

A University of Toronto study added oat bran to an already heart-healthy diet, HDL-cholesterol levels — the beneficial kind — climbed more than 11 percent.

7. Red Wine

Drinking a glass of wine with dinner — any alcoholic beverage, in fact — has been shown to raise good-cholesterol levels and lower the risk of a heart attack.  Alcohol does have its own problems and if you really want these health benefits, Resveratrol is the ingredient Researchers found works! Learn more about Reseveratrol.

Nutritional supplements are plentiful and range from the very cheap to the exclusive. Do ingredients really matter? Is it necessary to spend alot of money to get good quality from your nutritional supplements?

Over 20 years ago when I started my practice I explored the manufacturing of nutritional supplements and have not stopped. I am always on the lookout for the highest quality, evidence based and best value for that product.

When it comes to supplements ask yourself 3 questions:

1. What do you want from your supplements?
2. Do results matter?
3. Would you eat inferior ingredients in your food?

Quality is important to any professional grade product. We look for quality in manufacturing, processing as well as the presence of  proven results.

It can be confusing and annoying to have to sort through mystifying claims to catch a glimmer of the truth. Direct, simple and basic. – this is what we look for in a product.

Nutritional supplements can make a difference in your health when you take the right product in the right amount. Ingredients can be critical. Let’s take the example of Fish Oil. Many people experience burping after taking fish oil and have to give up this powerful nutrient. Did you know that many of the less expensive products use parts of the fish that are discarded? It makes sense you would belch this up.

In addition to the parts of the fish, fish oil has to be free of mercury and other heavy metals. We ensure processing does not damage the therapeutic value of the ingredient and the natural integrity is present in the range of supplements we offer.

Ingredients are very important and the raw ingredients matter. If you take a product that does not provide the basic ingredient so your body can restore optimal health – then why take it?

Are you getting what you want from your supplements?  You probably need more and a more efficient combination.

We look forward to helping you on your path of vibrant health. We provide a 25% discount with a FREE membership on professional grade products, offer an individualized approach,  professional guidance and back up support and education.

Over 10,000 NEW chemicals introduced in the last 20 years. All you have to do is read the label on your food, personal care products and listen to the health statistics with cancers and heart disease still an all time high and you get the idea that our world is toxic.

The good news is our body is actually designed to eliminate toxins.  However there is a point at which when overload occurs AND the body runs out of the necessary nutrients to detox itself. You have to have all the right nutrients in place before your body can do what it does naturally. In today’s world with stress taxing your body, a diet high in processed food and little whole food and natural support, most people would benefit from a Detox.

Periodically it is helpful to support the body’s natural cleansing functions. It does not have to complicated. You may want to start out with the following:

1. Supplement with All Zymes Enzyme formula,
2. Eat a diet rich in whole foods – vegetables, fruits. Check out the Detox Diet
3. Supplement with Chlorella product.    FAQ’s Chlorella
4. Supplement with a multi vitamin formula (Nutri Vitamin Enzyme Complex) to support healthy digestion and Detox.

This program will restore much needed nutrients and prepare you for further Detoxing.  Schedule a Detox Consult for an individualized approach to your Detox.

Did You Know?

• Columbia University School of Public Health reports that 95% of cancer is caused by diet and environmental toxicity.
• EPA studies of human fat biopsies found styrene residue in 100% of people.
• According to the EPA, our bodies accumulate 210mcg of just plasticizers (phthalates) everyday. (Linked to cancers)
• Studies show that most of us have between 400 and 800 chemical residues stored in the fat cells of our bodies.
• A USA Today article indicates that the average city water contains more than 500 chemicals.

Stress produces metabolic byproducts in our body that have to be processed by the liver. Even if you are young, the liver is overloaded from the sugars, refined food, alcohol, drugs, Tylenol and you name it. EVERYTHING, including our emotions are processed through our liver! Protect your liver with Super Milk Thistle.

This diagram helps to show the oxidative stress from free radicals. Free radicals are a by product of life and are greatly increased with toxins, nutritional deficiency, fatigue, stress and diet. Just like rust on a patio set, your body has to manage this oxidative damage. Your body needs nutrients to protect itself. Does your diet provide adequate nutrition?

One approach to manage free radicals is with antioxidants. Eating a diet in whole fresh food is your best defense against premature aging. Check in here for a FREE Whole Food Detox.
