New Study Says, "Don't Focus on Weight Loss"!

Researchers concluded that "Dieting and other weight-loss efforts may unintentionally lead to weight gain and diminished health status" in a recent literary review.

Our Suggestion/Strategy Remains the Same
For years we have done our best to steer people away from the "quick, short-term diet" mentality and towards a "learn about healthy habits and how to incorporate them into your life" way of thinking.

There are many well-known reasons why this is a much better strategy. In essence, ANYTHING that sets a time limit should be cautiously considered. Instead of buying a 5-day, two-week, or two-month diet or workout plan, look into a long-term commitment.

We understand nutritionists and other professionals from the wellness industry have good intentions when they tell their clients exactly what to eat. We feel it is better to TEACH these clients HOW to eat. Take the time to teach them how to manage quantities and how to rotate foods so that a wider variety of nutrients are ingested.

We challenge all health & wellness professionals to have your clients/patients depend on you ONLY for information and not for meal and exercise plans. Instead of handing them a list of foods to eat at specific times during the next few weeks, sit down and explain how THEY should construct a meal plan. Teach them about the glycemic index, proper exercise, and how to calculate the amount of water each needs to drink.

We challenge clients/patients who go to weight-loss professionals to not take these prepared diet regimens. Instead, ask HOW YOU can construct a meal plan on your own. If you only learn that "you need to eat this at this time and come back for a new plan in three weeks" you will never be in control of your health. And, as suggested in this study, you may struggle with weighloss and possibly do more harm than good. Bottom line, your health and wellbeing is no one else's responsibility but your own. Go on GlycoTrainer.com and spend 30 to 60 minutes a day reading and learning about your body, nutrition, and physical activity.

If you have already changed your eating habits and have started to exercise but are disappointed about your results, contact us. Our fitness and weight management products are fantastic. Our whey protein blend is backed by numerous clinical studies where it has proven to aid in fat burn (50% more than with diet and exercise alone).

Bacteria and Obesity

In numerous posts before we have stated that obesity has very little to do with calories going in vs calories going out.

We have pointed you in the direction of maintaining a healthy body and the body will consume its accumulated fat as it needs to, in a slow and healthy manner. No drugs, no tricks, just give the body what it needs, stop giving it what it doesn't need, and increase your activity.

But these lifestyle changes will only get you so far. You need to supplement. First, with our peptide blend. Next, with our antioxidants and phytosterols. And now, research published this morning suggests that you will also benefit from taking a probiotic.

See... There are several systems that have a say in how much fat you burn and how much you store. Your endocrine system (hormones) has a lot to do with this. It almost completely dictates what to store, when, and where. If a single hormone in any of these processes is off, it will manifest as either too much store or excessively fast utilization. The circulatory system takes care of moving the fats that for burning or storage. The digestive system breaks down the food we eat and releases essential nutrients.

It is in the digestive system that probiotics do their job... In the gut! We have millions of bacteria inside the gut and we needs to replenish them on a regular basis. According to the study, "The researchers also found that in people with certain genetic variations in taste receptor genes, a low level of bacterial diversity in the gut correlated with a higher likelihood of obesity, while a high level of bacterial diversity correlated with a lower likelihood of obesity."

The more diverse of a culture you have in your intestine, the better. See, in the gut, these bacteria will compete with one another for resources (foods we eat). And when one is dying off, another kinds will rush in and take their food and kill it off. Bacteria are at constant war with each other for resources. They want to survive along with their "family" (same bacterial types).

There are lots of probiotic supplements sold in stores... Sad thing is that the majority of these do not have a full spectrum of bacteria and in many cases, the bacteria is dead because there was little or no food added to the capsules or the powders.

Our probiotic supplement is guaranteed to have live bacteria. Contact us for a quick explanation this probiotic supplement, our fat-loss system, or our optimal health system.

New Study: New weight loss aid?

On February 18th, it was reported that isoleucine, an amino acid, could have a lot to do with weight loss.

In our "Your Body May Not Let You Lose Weight" blog post, we listed four mechanisms by which an advanced protein peptide technology can help you eliminate unwanted fat from your body.

The very first mechanism is:
Protein synthesis - provides three branched amino acids (leucine, isoleucine, and valine) essential for your body to make protein

This study has EVERYTHING to do with isoleucine and fat metabolism. Scientists took mice and fed them a diet that consisted of 45% fat for six weeks. Mice were separated and placed into groups after the second week. One group was administered isoleucine in their drinking water while the other was administered a placebo in the water.

Results: reduced fat deposits and increased fat metabolism (among other results).

"Researchers suggest that isoleucine could effective in treating obesity."

Presentation "Challenge against Fat" Was Highly Successful!

Last night the glycotrainer team held a virtual presentation in Spanish focused on fat loss.

Thanks to everyone who was able to make it last night to this virtual presentation about how fat is handled and eliminated in the body. It was such a success that we are thinking about hosting a follow up presentation (or series) about this topic and maybe go into more detail about other topics which were mentioned, like reducing certain sugars from your diet or the reduction and increase of certain fats (fatty acids), etc.

If you were unable to be with us, you'll have an opportunity to be part of the next one. Send a friend request through Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/glycotrainer) or become a fan of our fan page so you don't miss the invitation.

Interesting points from the presentation

• Many participants, a lot of interest (great questions at the end)
• Kevin Harper presented, Jovanny Martinez gave his testimonial, and doctors Edgardo Alcade (general surgeon) and Eduardo Aguirre (surgeon/GYNO) added a few things at the end.
• Obesity and diabetic tendencies in the United States
• Where people live longest in the United States
• False advise from nutrition experts in regards to fats and sugar
  - mechanisms in the body produce fat and glucose when they are eliminated from the diet
• Definition of obesity
  - Stop thinking about weight and start thinking about sizes
  - The Royal Spanish Academy never mentions "overweight" when defining obesity, obese, or fat (person who's fat)
• 5 pounds of fat versus 5 pounds of muscle


• Saturated fats versus unsaturated fats
• Processed carbohydrates versus Carbohydrates versus whole grain carbohydrates
• Food pyramid as is known and accepted (incorrect)


• Food pyramid suggested by Harvard Medical School (includes supplements; created in 2004; Based on sience)


• Supplement that helps build muscle, burn fat, prevent fat storage, gives sensation of being full
• Shake to more easily reduce 500 calories from your diet (substitute for breakfast, dinner, or a snack in between meals)
• Optimal Health System for facilitating necessary communication during the burning of fat and to feel full, neutralize free radicals liberated during the breakdown of fat, improved coordination of hormones required to prevent fat storage and to burn fat (in addition to others), and to provide the body with nutrients (reduce cravings, and to make cellular processes/functions a lot more efficient

Your Body May Not Let You Lose Weight

It's true! Your body is equipped with mechanisms that will allow it stay in an environment it thinks it needs to be in (homeostasis).

That is why it's no surprise that the scientific study discussed on You Can't Burn Just Fat reports that even when taking a supplement that promises to burn fat, your body will convert stored glucose into fat.

It is precisely this that separates our Whey Protein Blend from the rest. IT IS DIFFERENT from all other whey proteins on the market, and we have the double blind, placebo controlled clinical trials to prove it! Unlike whole whey protein products which are sold for building muscle mass, this exclusive peptide technology only has branches from whey protein (subsets) that have proven to accelerate the breakdown of fat (lipolysis) - the bulk of the whey was discarded. The mix was then enriched with calcium and magnesium (from plan sources, not salts, mined, or chemical).

This exclusive peptide technology has four very healthy mechanisms of action required for optimal fat loss:

1. Protein synthesis - provides three branched amino acids (leucine, isoleucine, and valine) essential for your body to make protein
   
2. Inhibition ACE - angiotensin-converting enzyme promotes storage/accumulation of fat. By inhibiting it, it loses it's ability to store fat, thereby preventing the formation of new fat cells.
3. * Promostes production of CCK - cholecystokinin is secreted by gland after you have consumed some food (some fats or proteins) and send signal to the brain telling it that you are satisfied and to stop making you fell hungry
4. Calcitrophic Hormone Regulation - regulates whether you will burn the fat or not.

* If taken 20 minutes before meals, as is recommended. Product can be taken at any time (before, during, after meals) twice a day. But you gain a mechanisms by taking it 20 minutes before a meal.

Studies

Two test groups told to log food intake to see actual caloric intake. Told to reduce by 500 calories. Told to do increase activity. Told to take product (or placebo) twice a day, 20 minutes before meals.

Both groups dropped almost the same amount of weight. But those who took peptide product lose almost twice as much fat per pound lost when compared to control group.

If you struggle with weight loss, even after dieting and doing exercise, you need this product. You will undoubtedly benefit from the four action mechanisms described above. Contact us now and receive a 6 month, full money back guarantee.
