TODAY’S HEALTH REALITY

* Annually

The World’s Leading Causes of Premature Deaths Are Degenerative Diseases:

• Cardiovascular Disease (17 million*)• Cancer (8.6 million*)• Stroke (5.5 million*)• Respiratory Disease (3.7 million*)• Diabetes (990,000*)

33% of children born in America today are expected to develop Type 2 Diabetes. For Black and Hispanic children, the number jumps to 50%.

• 30% of Americans are trying to lose weight. Another 30% are trying to maintain weight.

• Americans spend $30 Billion per year on diets and weight control plans.

• Two-thirds who lose weight on diets gain it back within 1 year.

• 98% gain their weight back and more within 2 years.

WEIGHT CONTROL FACTS

WHY DIETS DON’T WORK

• Short-term solution for a long-term problem

• Majority of diets are not balanced (Ornish, Atkins)

• Few tackle the core issue ofkeeping blood sugar balanced

• Few look at the whole picture or health as a lifestyle

WHAT IS THE GLYCEMIC INDEX?

FOOD GLYCEMIC INDEX

High GI = 70+ Medium GI = 56-69 Low GI = 55 and below

UNDERSTANDING HOW YOUR BRAIN & BODY WORK

• Brain & body work off of glucose• Carbs are NOT bad – it’s the kind & amount• Challenge: Brain works off a Narrow Band of

Blood Sugar

BRAIN WANTS US TO “ROLL” IN THIS NARROW BAND OF BLOOD SUGAR

BREAKFAST FOODSCEREAL, BAGEL, ORANGE JUICECOFFEE SHOP LATTE & MUFFIN

“STATE OF EMERGENCY”

SPIKE your blood sugar, brain thinks it’s...DROWNING

Blood sugar too LOW, brain thinks it’s...STARVING

BOTH states are equally harmful to brain/body….

WHEN BLOOD SUGAR SPIKES

• Brain releases a very powerful hormone• INSULIN is your storage hormone• It does its job very well!

1 HR LATER - BLOOD SUGAR DROPS

YOU ARE STARVING! (OR DEAD TIRED)

• Blood Sugar TOO low• Shaky weakness, fatigue, mental fog• Uncontrollable Hunger (Emotional

Eating)• “Get me FOOD!”

WE DO THIS 5 X’S PER DAY OVER 20, 30 YEARS ...

BODY CAN’T HANDLE IT ANYMORE

THIS IS WHY...

• Diets Don’t Work Short Term Solution to Long Term problem

• Extremes Don’t Work Balance, not deprivation or removing whole

food groups• Quick Fixes Don’t Work

Lifestyle

HIGH GLYCEMIC FOODS

• 85 to 90% of the carbohydrates adults and children are consuming in the US and Canada are considered to be high-glycemic.

• Bread, rice, cereals, and potatoes actually spike your blood sugar faster than if you were eating table sugar.

WHAT ARE HIGH GLYCEMIC FOODS?

• Sugar, Candy, Ice Cream, Cookies• White Flour, White Rice, White Tortillas• Most Breads & Cereals• Potatoes• Highly Processed Foods• “Instant” Foods• Fruit Juices• Every time you spike your blood sugar, you create

INFLAMMATION in the body

INFLAMMATION

“Chronic inflammation lies at the root of virtually every disease process known to modern man – from weight gain, obesity & heart disease to autoimmune disorders

like lupus, MS and rheumatoid arthritis.” - Dr. Chris Lydon, Yale University

Anti-inflammatory Lifestyle =

Supplementation, Exercise & Nutrition

WHY IS ENERGY STORED AS FAT?• Muscle Cells have insulin receptor sites• Too much insulin in blood?• Muscle Cells shut down receptor sites become

Insulin Insensitive

WHY IS ENERGY STORED AS FAT?

• BAD NEWS….– Fat cells are like Energizer Bunnies!– AND have their own insulin receptors

TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY...

Fat cells duplicate, multiply & secrete hormones which create more fat cells,

which create more…

GOOD NEWS! REVERSIBLE!

• Keep blood sugar rolling between “band”• Slow release of insulin• Muscle cells start regenerating insulin

receptor sites• Fat cells starve (receptor sites shut down)

REGENERATE INSULIN RECEPTOR SITES!

TAKE HOME POINT

Don’t SPIKE blood sugar or let it go too LOW

Both are equally harmful to brain/body

WHY?

WHEN OUR BLOOD SUGAR IS TOO LOW

• Cravings• Binging• Low Energy• Moody, Irritable• No Dieting!

WHEN WE SPIKE OUR BLOOD SUGAR

• Store energy as fat WAIST• “Insulin Insensitivity” - difficult to lose weight• Uncontrollable Eating & Cravings• Increase Risk of Diabetes & Degenerative

Disease• Decrease immune system• Low Energy Energy Roller Coaster

WHEN OUR BLOOD SUGAR IS KEPT STABLE

• Lose Weight• Release Fat – WAIST!• Energy!• Feel satisfied & lose cravings• Increase Fitness Levels• Strengthen Immune System• Reduce Inflammation• Feel GREAT!

How Do You Keep Blood Sugar

Stable Throughout The Day And Reduce Inflammation?

NutritionExercise

SUPPLEMENTATION

• All about CELL HEALTH• All health and disease starts in the cell

Get Cells Healthy And Then The Cells Can Take Care Of The Body

IMPORTANCE OF SUPPLEMENTATION

Research of Dr. Bruce Ames, professor of toxicology at UC Berkeley has demonstrated that “a deficiency in any of the micronutrients such as folic acid, Vitamins B-12, B-6, niacin, C, E, iron or zinc, mimics radiation and chemicals in damaging DNA by causing

single & double strand breaks, oxidative lesions or both”.

In fact, the damage your system will endure from a nutrient deficiency is hundreds of times greater than any damage

cause by radiation or chemicals.

SUPPLEMENTATION

Every Day…

Take a High Quality Multi-Vitamin Essential Fatty Acids – 2 kinds

Cell is the building block of the body…where all health and disease originates

BUT WHAT ABOUT IF YOU EAT VERY HEALTHY?

• 1900’s versus today• Over farming, fertilization methods• Nutrition is no longer in the soil

BUT WHAT ABOUT IF YOU EAT VERY HEALTHY?

HOW DO YOU SUPPLEMENT?

• Twice a Day• Why?

– Body comprised of 100 trillion cells– Every hour 1 billion cells renew

**If necessary vitamins, minerals & antioxidants are not available, cells will SUBSTITUTE

WHAT I GET ALL MY CLIENTS ON AS A MINIMUM…

• Multi-Vitamin– Essentials OR Health Pak 100

• Essential Fatty Acids (EFA’s)– BiOmega (fish )– Flax Oil (plants)
