The Biggest Loser Kid Plan:Red Light, Green Light, Eat Right is a child and adolescent weight nutrition program that has helped thousands of kids lose (or maintain) their weight and learn healthy eating habits. Designed by pediatrician Joanna Dolgoff, MD, the program has not only proven itself to be an effective way for children to lose weight, it is also medically founded to ensure that children continue to get the important nutrients they need to grow strong, healthy bodies.

Red Light, Green Light, Eat Right is based on the principles of the traffic light and uses the power of play to get families excited about healthy eating. Green Light foods are lowest in calories (Go!); Yellow Light foods are moderate in calories (Slow!); Red Light foods are highest in calories (Uh-oh!).

Three Groups in Study:

People who have been under regular chiropractic

care for 2+ years

People not under chiropractic care but deemed

‘healthy’

People who were sick, had cancer, etc

Results:

“The Chiropractic patients also had a 200

percent greater immune-competence than

people who had not received chiropractic and

400 percent greater immune-competence than

people with cancer

or other serious diseases.”

“Chiropractic may optimize

whatever genetic abilities you

have so that you can fully

resist disease”
