Despite the efforts of credit card companies and banks the money kept flowing through shell companies and manipulation of payment data. WORST GIMMICK: The “Pure Energy Weight Loss plus Energy Band.” This plastic bracelet embeds green and silver hologram discs claimed to give off vibes that resonate throughout the body and stimulate weight loss and health. Among the alleged results are decreased appetite, balanced metabolism, balanced hormones. ![]() ![]() A testimonial declares, “Since I bought my Pure Energy Band I have lost over 8.

The Sensa website states boldly that users can lose an average of 3. It claims that Sensa has been “clinically proven.” Smell and taste receptors supposedly send the brain messages to tell your body to stop eating. It “activates a hunger- control switch in the brain and you “eat less and feel more satisfied. The California complaint states that (a) there is no competent and reliable scientific evidence to substantiate these claims and (b) an expert who reviewed Sensa's main clinical study judged it “beyond worthless.” WORST PRODUCT: HCG (human chorionic gonadotrophin. HCG was first introduced more than 5. British physician Dr. ![]() Albert Simeon who claimed the hormone, found in the urine of pregnant women, would mobilize stored fat, suppress appetite and redistribute fat. He contended that regular injections would enable dieters to live comfortably on a 5. For a time, these weekly injections were the most widespread obesity medication administered in the US. In the mid- 7. 0s the FDA and FTC effectively shut them down by ordering the Simeon clinics to stop claiming their programs were safe and effective, and requiring they inform patients in writing that there was no evidence HCG increases weight loss beyond that resulting from caloric restriction.” More recently infomercial king Kevin Trudeau took up the cudgel. His 2. 00. 7 book claims HCG is . HCG is heavily marketed online and in retail outlets as oral drops, pellets, and sprays, while injections for weight loss continue.

An Arizona man who used Ultimate Cleanse is suing the maker and seller charging that it caused perforation of his colon requiring two operations; his surgeon believes the perforation was caused by cascara segrada. There is no proven safe or effective dose for cascara, derived from the bark of a buckthorn plant. Long- term use may lead to potassium depletion, blood in the urine, disturbed heart function, muscle weakness, finger clubbing and cachexia (extreme weight loss). Regular use is linked to increased risk of hepatitis and colorectal cancer. Though banned as a drug, cascara sells in dietary supplements through a legal loophole.

The caveat: the program requires a semi- starvation diet of 5. Further, the HCG program often begins with a liquid fast detox period. Common short- term effects include fatigue, headache, mood swings, depression, confusion, dizziness and stomach pain. MOST OUTRAGEOUS: Basic Research LLCBasic Research, marketer of bogus products, carries an extensive history of FTC warnings, charges, fines and on- going lawsuits against multiple products. Basic Research, also doing business as Carter- Reed Company, has been a plaintiff or defendant in more than 4.

The same stuff comes out of the fat cells.” So excess fat is released and the fat cells shrink, or so it is claimed. The FDA classifies the device as an infrared lamp rather than a laser, so likely it is harmless. Yet the price is hefty: $1. An online diet review site rates the Lipo. Our Clean Eating: :The Feingold Diet. What? Yes, the Feingold Diet. I’ve had a few people ask me to post about my son’s diet. BJ is hyper. Never sits still. Sometimes, like any other child, he gets in trouble. Sometimes it’s more than any other child. I have to drink several pots of coffee everyday just to keep up with him. Over the top crazy- ass behavior that wasn’t normal or cute or tolerable. It was emotionally exhausting. There was discipline. There were consequences, praise, redirection, conferences. Pulling of hair (my own). Nothing made a difference. I knew what people were thinking and saying when I wasn’t in earshot. They were thinking MY GOD that woman does not discipline her child, and WOW give him some Ritalin. Wrong. I do discipline, and I don’t believe that Ritalin is the answer for every spirited child. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying that medication is the devil. It’s certainly necessary in some situations, and if our situation had warranted it, or had it not improved (stay with me here) I would have investigated all means of fixin’. But I honestly don’t think our situation was to the point of needing medication. Enter Dr. No, he’s not our pediatrician. He was a doctor who stumbled upon something so great. Back in the 6. 0s & 7. California trying to figure out a way to help people with skin allergies, he found a connection between the crap in our foods and children’s behavior. You see, some wild (as in behavior) kids who were following his elimination diet to help with their eczema were, lo and behold, acting better as well. As in not wild anymore. So he investigated, poked around and created the Feingold Diet. How did I find out about this diet? I was on it when I was a child. It’s funny you ask (okay, so I really asked for you) because for the majority of BJ’s 7 years, I thought that sugar was the culprit of his always- hyper- state. I was substituting sugar- free (read: splenda, equal, aspartame, etc.) for all the regularly sweetened things in my house. No you can’t have a piece of dark chocolate. Eat this sugar- free pudding instead. Funny thing is this never really seemed to work. So I started reading up on Feingold, picking my mom’s brain, searching the internets, and talking with other bloggers about it. I read so, so many success stories, studies, and testimonials that I had to give it a try. My son was worth it, and it was all really starting to make scary- sense to me. Like anything new, it was overwhelming and hard and scary for the first 2 weeks. We were not only changing our diet, but our thinking about food in general. I’ve been on the eliminate- as- many- processed- foods- as- possible kick for awhile, but this was even more than that. We have eliminated all food dyes, all additives and preservatives, some naturally occurring things in foods known to cause reactions, and of course all artificial sweeteners. BJ is on it almost 1. I still drink Diet Coke and eat things that aren’t approved, but only when he’s not around.)What do we eat? We eat most everything, but most of the things we eat are either made from scratch or approved. We have a handy Feingold food guide that lists grocery and personal items that have been extensively researched by the Feingold Association and deemed to contain non of the above – hence being approved. It’s not as simple as just reading the food labels, because lots of the things we eliminate aren’t even required to be listed on the labels. Things like TBHQ, BHT, and BHA, which are anti- oxidant preservatives used in the packaging of products like cereals, cookies and crackers. Eating out is a little trickier. Feingold provides a fast food list, which would be nice if we ate fast food. And I’ll have to be honest here, because we have hit the drive- thru more since we’ve been on this diet than ever before. When you know for a fact that something is safe, you’re more likely to choose it because HELLO, a reaction is hell. You really don’t know what’s in food at a restaurant, so we try to choose grilled chicken, steamed veggies, things that seem less done- up? Basically reverting back to old behavior – out of control (and by out of control, I don’t mean flailing around on the floor, I mean jumping up and down, running around, erratic behavior, clothes chewing, fidgeting, noisy- ness, NOT LISTENING) And we’ve had a couple thankfully, because those reactions allowed me to see just how much this diet is working for us. Has it helped with BJ’s issues? I cannot even begin to tell you how much easier it is to parent BJ these days. No, he’s not robotically perfect, but I am no longer emotionally and physically exhausted. His goat- like clothes chewing isn’t an issue anymore. Mornings are (almost) a dream, and homework gets done with a lot less frustration. He is focused, and more pleasant to be around. He doesn’t constantly fidget and move and make random noises. His behavior at school has improved, which is so relieving for me. He is a 7- year- old boy. He’s energetic, he still talks and talks and talks. He’s just a much better version of the boy I was dealing with a couple of months ago. How has BJ handled being on the Feingold diet? From the beginning, I talked openly and honestly with him about what we were doing and why. We’ve always been label readers and healthy eaters, so it wasn’t too hard of a transition. He had hard time at a couple of birthday parties when he couldn’t eat cake, and hot lunch at school is a no- no. I’ve found creative ways to make sure he has the same or very similar to what’s being offered here and there. There are lots of online resources, natural candy stores, all- natural food dyes, and many other things we’ve switched to. Most importantly, he’s been honest, which is amazing for a 7- year- old. He does not eat things that people offer him, and as a family, we bypass things he cannot have when he is present. What’s next? Well, once we see consistent success on Phase One, which consists of a LOT of elimination, we move on to Phase Two. Basically we’ll start adding things back in. Just like when you’re testing for allergies, because really, that’s what this is. An allergy to certain things in food. Once we are able to target what’s causing his reactions, we’ll just leave those out. Feingold material says that sometimes children ! Do you have any questions? I’d be happy to answer them if I can, or find the answer for you! Just ask below in the comments section, or you can email me at christy @ shrinkingjeans. I encourage you to go read the overview of the Feingold diet. Even if you don’t have a necessity for it in your life, it’s very eye- opening. Edited to add a link to an interesting press release: http: //www. FDA- Hearing. html(Visited 7,8. Prime Male Testimonials. Brian, United States. Age: 5. 7Goals: To reduce my body fat level, regain my youthful . I have been active my whole life. Biking, hiking, skiing, motorcycles, and basically anything outdoors and active was where I wanted to be. My profession is also very active. I am a Navy veteran that has been in the building trades and a contractor for over 3. I have always been height and weight proportionate, full of energy, and had a nice shape. I tried various vitamins and supplements that claimed to “regain” your vitality but they just turned out to be hype, playing on the desires of the aging searching for that fountain of youth. I had heard of testosterone boosters and had even tried a few with no noticeable results, still minimal energy, the “extra” pounds and a lack of muscle tone and strength. I did some research on testosterone boosters, read reviews, investigated the ingredients, and they all pointed me toward Prime Male. I did not get excited, I thought that it was probably just another in a long line of products that does not work. Boy, was I wrong! Within the first week, surely the second week, I could feel the difference. I was sleeping well, no more “naps” in the afternoon, my energy level soared. By the third week I could begin the see a difference in the mirror. My waistline was getting smaller and my muscles were becoming more defined like I had looked 1. My girlfriend noticed the difference and people I did not see regularly said “Wow, are you pumping iron?” Yes, I joined a gym, started a resistance routine, and took my Prime Male as prescribed. My strength increased quickly and my athletic shape was returning, something I had thought was gone with my youth. I have been taking Prime Male for 9. I feel and look better than I have in 2. I am asked advice in the gym due to my dramatic gains and I point out the fact that I attribute my success to Prime Male, a product that actually does what it claims. I am more than happy with my progress and my hat is off to Propura and an amazing product!”.

Could it be that the number of calories you burn in a day is more dependent on your biological roots than the number of minutes you spend being physically active? Intriguing new research has indeed shown that it's possible human metabolic rates are more evolutionary in origin than a reflection of our modern lifestyles – confirming that what you choose to eat could be the most important factor in your risk of becoming overweight or obese. Hunter- Gatherers Burn the Same Number of Calories as the Average American The Hadza tribe of Tanzania still leads an ancient lifestyle that includes daily hunting and foraging for berries, roots and fruit. It's all done on foot, using bows, digging sticks and axes – no guns. Clearly, this is a high level of physical activity that would, according to current beliefs, burn a far greater number of calories than, say, sitting at a computer for eight hours. What the new research found, however, was that even though physical activity levels were greater among the Hadza people, the average daily energy expenditure was no different than that of Westerners! In other words, even though tribe members spent many hours trekking long distances to hunt and forage for food, they still expended no more calories each day than adults in modern Europe and the United States. Upending the long- held science of metabolism, the findings indicate that daily energy expenditure may be an . Herman Pontzer of the department of anthropology at Hunter College, New York told the BBC News: 1. Being active is really important to your health but it won't keep you thin - we need to eat less to do that. What this means is that if your diet is based on sugar/fructose and processed junk food, it's highly likely that your weight is going to become an issue. About one- third of U. S. Dietary culprit #1 is easily fructose, sugars and grains. According to the 2. Report by the Advisory Committee on the Dietary Guidelines for Americans,2 the top 1. American diet are: 1. If it's true that we burn about the same number of calories a day as Tanzanian hunter- gatherers who are physically active at a level only the most dedicated of athletes in America likely attain – then the reason why so many Americans are overweight while the hunger- gatherers are lean comes down to food choices. I believe the two primary keys for successful weight management are severely restricting carbohydrates (sugars, fructose, and grains) in your diet, and increasing healthy fat consumption. This will optimize insulin and leptin levels, which is key for maintaining a healthy weight and optimal health. For more details, I suggest you review my Optimized Nutrition Plan, which is a comprehensive and step- by- step guide to help you make health- promoting food and lifestyle choices. This includes: Limit your fructose to less than 2. Limit or eliminate all processed foods Eliminate all gluten, and highly allergenic foods from your diet Increase the amount of fresh vegetables in your diet, and consider juicing Eat at least one- third of your food uncooked (raw), or as much as you can manage Avoid artificial sweeteners of all kinds Should Your Diet Mimic the Hunter- Gatherers'? During the Paleolithic period many thousands of years ago, people ate primarily vegetables, fruit, nuts, roots and meat—and a wide variety of it. Today, these staples have been largely replaced with refined sugar, high fructose corn syrup, cereal, bread, potatoes and pasteurized milk products. While we may consider ourselves to be at the pinnacle of human development, our modern food manufacturing processes have not created a race of super- humans in possession of great health and longevity. Humans today suffer more chronic and debilitating diseases, including obesity, than ever before. And there can be little doubt that our food choices play a major role in this development. By eating foods that are concordant with your genetic ancestry, you can avoid many of the diseases associated with our modern diet, including obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer. You can actually mold your diet around the principles of Paleo eating rather easily by following my nutrition plan. Episodes of intermittent fasting may also be important, as our ancestors clearly did not have access to food on a 2. I believe it to be one of the most profound interventions for the 2. Quite simply, we've strayed too far from the foods we are designed to eat, so going back to basics and refocusing your diet on fresh, whole, unprocessed, . In addition to the points noted above, a . Interestingly, just as a hunter- gatherer diet may be beneficial, there's a lot to be said about moving like a hunter- gatherer too. Instead of being sedentary for much of the day and then running for an hour on a treadmill, our ancient ancestors combined lots of walking with regular lifting and short bursts of high- intensity activities, and health experts agree that this may be a healthier way to live because this is what your body is . My Peak Fitness program incorporates this essential factor, which is, I believe, why so many people have achieved such great results with it. A summary of what researchers believe might be an ideal exercise prescription would include the following aspects of normal hunger- gatherer living: A variety of exercises performed regularly (weight training, cardio, stretching, etc.) Alternate difficult days with easier days Exercise outdoors, which helps maintain vitamin D levels and improve mood Peak Fitness sessions performed no more than three times a week. Weight training 2- 3x a week Walk and run on softer, uneven terrain, such as grass and dirt, possibly barefoot or using. ![]() Arizona Deals - Best Deals & Coupons in Arizona.

The First Phase: Period of Not- Eating– How to Schedule Your Fasts– What to Drink While Fasting. The Second Phase: Period of Eating. How to Track Your Results. Further Reading. New Blog Posts: Redefining the Role of the Binge. Preface. First of all, I would like to say a few words about myself, and what the Intermittent Diet is all about. My name is Will Hinotsky, and I wrote this manual to help people understand how they can easily simplify and, at the same time, maximize their weight loss by using the method of structured intermittent dieting. The path I took toward writing Intermittent Diet was not typical for a diet author. First of all, I’m a guy who studied mathematics and statistics at a university for four years. This was a great time in my intellectual life, during which I realized that math is not just about figures and equations. After some training, you begin to develop a mathematical way of seeing the world. There is a moment when math becomes not just your discipline; it becomes a way of thinking. The first time I had any experience in the dieting world was when my girlfriend told me she wanted to try a low carb diet plan. I wanted to be sure she was trying something that would be safe for her health, so I decided to do some research. Before this time, diet talk for me was similar to fashion talk. I had never given any deep thought to dieting. I started reading popular fitness magazines, blogs, and forums, and, after a while, the topic of dieting caught my interest. I continued by studying books on weight loss, nutrition, and biochemistry, as well as consulting several diet experts. Since I was initially trained to work with quantitative data, I also collected data from different experimental weight loss studies to figure out what models could fit their findings. My new goal was to find out whether there were any concepts that constantly proved their long- term effectiveness. The first important piece of information I found was that caloric restriction, even without specific food restrictions, is necessary for effective weight loss. Another interesting finding was the importance of simplicity in a dieting process. A calorie- restricted but complicated diet has been proven to work short- term only. Probably the most astonishing discovery was that, by default, there are two different phases of human metabolism: fed and fasted. The fasted metabolic state promotes a great fat burning effect, however almost 9. All these principles apply to the Intermittent Diet, making it the universal diet solution. This means you can lose weight and prevent weight gain by following only the Intermittent Diet manual. Or, if you currently enjoy some type of diet plan but find that it brings you limited results, then the Intermittent Diet is still for you. It can be a great complement to or even a critical missing link in your fat loss nutrition program. Big Leap or Small Steps? I want to begin this manual by presenting a model which shows why it is more feasible to lose weight by dieting intermittently than it is to lose weight with traditional dieting. First of all, I’m going to uncover the link between weight loss rate and dieting to see how it can be applied in diet design. In order to do that, we need to conduct the following experiment: Let’s randomly select a huge group (over 1. We won’t be specific, and we’ll allow our imaginary participants to choose between lots of diet plans in existence: low fat, low carb, high protein, vegetarian, or whatever they want. For simplicity. After all, each person is unique, with his or her own personal characteristics and lifestyles. In reality, though, the range of our results will be narrow, if we consider that body weight (like height, life span, bone density, etc.) is a biological variable. And when scientists need to predict values of biological variables, all they need to know is their average value. Then they get their results by using the law of normal distribution. The law of normal distribution. To illustrate it, I will use human height. The law simply says that if one man in six has a height above 1. The tallest person on the planet has a height of 2. Applying the same law and assuming the average rate of fat loss per week is 1 pound, we will get the results for our experiment. I will skip all technical details and formulas, and present the final outcomes only. Chances of losing a certain amount of body weight per week under the terms of our experiment: You can see how irregularly weight loss rates are distributed throughout our population. Chances to lose weight within a given range drops off very quickly as you get away from the average 1 pound. In our experiment, weight loss chances decrease by about 1. What most of our participants should expect from dieting is a weight loss of somewhere between 0 – 3 pounds per week. Note, that weight loss rates tend to slow down as fat mass levels decrease. After losing a significant amount of weight during the first months of your body transformation journey, you will not likely continue losing 1- 2 pounds a week during the following months. Weight loss may slow down to 0. This rate may appear relatively slow to you, but it is quite acceptable for the purpose of body transformation, since it is obvious you don’t need to lose 1,0. Consider also that forcing weight loss to happen faster than it should may have some undesirable consequences. In fact, if you’re trying to lose weight too fast, you have a risk of developing health disorders, such as gallstones. Another concern is that losing weight too fast may result not only in fat loss, but in muscle loss as well. It is becoming clear now that it is highly impossible to lose all your excess weight in one day, regardless of how hard you try. Your total weight loss will be a result of the sum of your collective efforts, not of a single effort or a few efforts. In other words, you are more likely to achieve your goal by taking a number of small steps rather than trying to commit one big leap. The same is applied to dieting. One week of dieting does not make your body super lean – just a bit leaner, although months of dieting are more likely to do that. To be fair, this rule works in both directions. Weight gain doesn’t happen in one day. Overeating on one given day adds only a small percent to total weight gain. So, if TOTAL weight loss takes an EXTENDED period of time to happen, and if a small part of that period contributes only a small amount of weight loss, then we can describe the weight loss process with the following line: The distance between any two dots on the above trend is one week, and since each week is associated with a mild reduction in body weight, the whole trend is also gradually descending. I think this trend model helps to explain why even small but long- term changes in eating habits and physical activity, or what people usually refer to as lifestyle changes, eventually outperform radical but short- term solutions and can lead to lasting results. If we take into account that weight loss is a result of calorie restriction, we can build a similar decreasing trend for total calorie deficit during a dieting period. That’s because calorie intake, like rate of weight loss, is also a non- scalable variable, meaning you can’t eat or burn your monthly norm of calories in just one day. Under our models, it becomes clear that losing weight doesn’t necessarily require constant dieting. The only thing needed is to be in a calorie deficit over the course of some period of time. And this is exactly how intermittent fasting works. For most days out of a week, you will not be in a calorie deficit, but for one or two days, you will be in an extreme calorie deficit. As a result, over the course of a week, your food intake on average will drop, making it possible to lose weight. It makes a lot of sense, however part- time dieting is still not fully recognized in the fitness world, mainly because it involves short- term periods of not eating. This is something we are going to discuss next. Misconceptions Related to Fasting and Dieting. I bet you’ve often heard or read the claims that not eating enough food will actually cause you to store more fat. This argument is the so- called “Starvation Mode” theory (a non- scientific term, by the way). According to this theory, two negative effects are caused by low- calorie dieting: 1) Eating too few calories will slow down your metabolism. As a result, you end up burning fewer calories, and your weight loss slows down to a very minimal rate. Your body starts to utilize muscle for fuel instead of stored fat, and this leads to a decrease in muscle mass. Based on these two points, some experts recommend that you avoid cutting calories too aggressively and advise that you keep eating in order to increase your metabolism and maintain muscle mass. These seem to be central points in promoting daily- calorie restricted diets which instruct you to reduce only a small part of your food intake on a daily basis. In order to detect the real effect of low- calorie dieting on metabolism and muscle, we have to have a bit of basic knowledge. Metabolism, or, more specifically, metabolic rate is a topic that seems to produce a lot of speculation in the weight loss area, so first let’s visit it.

By Dr. Mercola. If you're already off to a good start on a healthy fitness plan, and you're looking for ways to take it to the next level, then you might want to consider intermittent fasting. In essence this fitness- enhancing strategy looks at the timing of meals, as opposed to those fad plans where you eat just one or two things for several days in a row. You can also opt to simply delay eating. For example, skipping breakfast may be just the thing to get you off a plateau in your fitness routine. The issue of fasting is a major shift from my typical recommendations. I've not been a major advocate for it in the past, but as many of you who have been reading this site for years know, I am always learning. Your Ancestors Rarely Had Access to Food 2. So it makes sense that our genes are optimized for to this type of feeding schedule. It takes about six to eight hours for your body to metabolize your glycogen stores and after that you actually start to shift to burning fat. However if you are replenishing your glycogen by eating every few hours, you make it far more difficult for your body to actually use your fat stores as fuel. Interestingly, since adopting this approach for the past few months I have lost two inches from my waist size and gained three pounds, which means I have lost body fat and gained muscle mass. Just broke 3. 3 inches for my waist and am maintaining my 1. It appears particularly powerful when combined with exercise—i. According to some fitness experts, such as Ori Hofmekler—whose guest commentary is featured below—fasting may indeed push your exercise program to the next level. You have to chose one or the other and tailor your diet and fitness regimen to achieve your intended goal. Gender differences also come into play when fasting, which you need to be aware of. For the last several months I have been experimenting and not eating breakfast and compressing the time that I eat into a 6- 7 hour window. I do this nearly every day of the week and it has helped me drop my body fat percentage effortlessly. Interestingly, hunger is not much of a problem as I have shifted to upregulate my fat burning enzymes. I am convinced that having periods of 1. The other variable I am currently in the process of evaluating if dinner would be the better meal to skip. Skipping breakfast is far easier and logistically and socially more acceptable, but avoiding dinner might be better from a health perspective.

Intermittent Fasting for General Health and Longevity. There's plenty of research showing that fasting has a beneficial impact on longevity in animals. There are a number of mechanisms contributing to this effect. What do you get when you merge motivational fitness quotes with extreme drunkenness?Normalizing insulin sensitivity is a major one as insulin sensitivity is critical for the activation of the m. TOR pathway, which along with IGF- 1 plays an important part in repairing and regenerating your tissues including your muscles and thereby counteracting the aging process. The fact that it improves a number of potent disease markers also contributes to fasting's overall beneficial effects on general health. For example, modern science has confirmed fasting can help you: Normalize your insulin sensitivity, which is key for optimal health as insulin resistance (which is what you get when your insulin sensitivity plummets) is a primary contributing factor to nearly all chronic disease, from diabetes to heart disease and even cancer Normalize ghrelin levels, also known as .

He also offers a few caveats to successful IF, such as the necessity to avoid the standard American diet when you do eat, as your body requires high quality nutrients when you're doing intermittent fasting. He also reviews some of the gender differences, and why you need to decide on a goal—either maximum fitness, or maximum longevity. Guest Commentary by Ori Hofmekler. Studies on animals reveal that intermittent fasting (IF) can improve health and extend lifespan similar to calorie restriction. Both regimes have shown to protect against diabetes, cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative disorders and cancer. Animals on IF have demonstrated some major physiological changes, including: Decreased plasma insulin. Decreased blood sugar concentrations. D blood pressure. Decreased heart rate. Enhanced immune function. Reduced body fat. Human Trials on Intermittent Fasting. That's how animal respond to a low feeding frequency. But what about humans? Is the human body programmed for a low meal frequency? Only a few experimental studies have tested the effect of intermittent fasting (IF) on humans. Apparently there have been conflicting reports concerning the results. Subjects seemed to feel increased hunger and desire to eat, and a decreased feeling of fullness during these trials. These seem like minor benefits compared to the dramatic results shown in animal studies. Why Do Results from Human IF Trials Differ from Animal Studies? Apparently, a couple of design flaws have rendered some of these studies unfit for IF trials. Take a look for instance at the initial human study on reduced meal frequency by the American Society for Nutrition – three meals per day versus one meal per day. Here is how.. Forced Feeding Shatters Your Adaptive Response to Fasting. Fasting has a profound effect on your food cravings as it has shown to shift cravings toward more subtle tasting, nutrient dense, satiety- promoting foods, which can then lead to a spontaneous decrease in your overall calorie intake. This is probably part of an early adaptation mechanism to food scarcity, which encourages intake of maximum nutrients from minimum food. Force- feeding abolishes this adaptive feature. However, if they were allowed to choose their foods freely and stop eating upon feeling satiety, they would have probably become increasingly adept to fasting, and the study's results would have been very different. The second flaw in the diet design was that it was based on the typical American diet's food ratio, and that food ratio is counter- effective to IF. The Typical American Diet's Food Ration Negates the Benefits You Get from IF. The typical American diet and its high glycemic food ratio will never complement intermittent fasting, certainly not the one meal per day. Shoving in 4. 0 percent of the daily calories from refined carbs alone in one sitting will affect your insulin and your health more than when that amount is divided into three or several meals. And note that the typical American diet with its high carb, low protein, low fiber ratio is known to promote hunger and weight gain; and it certainly lowers your capacity to endure fasting. What should be your right food ratio when following an IF regimen? What should be your right food choices? And what should be your right fuel food? Proper Food Ratio: high protein, low carbs, high fiber. Having a low glycemic food ratio is critical to the viability of your intermittent fasting. Your ideal ratio would be: high protein – low carbs – high fiber. That ratio has proven to be most effective in promoting satiety and resisting hunger. The high protein part serves to nourish and retain your lean tissues whereas the low carb- high fiber ratio helps optimize your insulin and sustain a healthy metabolism. This dietary ratio has also shown to be most effective in decreasing body fat while sparing muscle tissue. Proper Food Choices: Quality protein, green and fibrous vegetables, nutrient dense fruits, good fat. Your protein should preferably come from organic whole food sources - fish, pastured eggs, legumes and dairy. Your fat fuel should come from nuts, seeds, avocadoes, olives, extra virgin olive oil, coconut oil or whole dairy. Fat will Typically Accommodate Your Fasting Better than Carbs. Fat fuel will generally accommodate your fasting better than carb fuel, as it has a longer and more profound effect on your satiety and your ability to sustain energy during fasting. Fat fuel increases ketogenesis – an energy pathway that involves production of ketone bodies, byproducts of fat metabolism – known to serve as your body's preferred fuel during fasting, when glycogen reserves are depleted, and glucose supply is limited. There are however some exceptions to the above. Cases where Dietary Fat Should Not Be Your Primary Fuel. Fat should not be your primary fuel if you suffer from a condition of impaired fat metabolism such as: Hyperlipidemia. Cholesterol disorder. Obesity related insulin resistance. Liver disease. The other reason for not having fat as a primary fuel relates to your type of exercise. If you're a power lifter or engaged in sheer strength training, fat should not be used as your main fuel. Max strength performance requires carbohydrate fuel, as you predominantly use your fast glycolytic fibers (Type IIB white fibers), which are inherently carb dependent and have a very limited capacity to utilize fat.

The history of hypnosis is full of contradictions. On the one hand, a history of hypnosis is a bit like a history of breathing. Like breathing, hypnosis is an inherent and universal trait, shared and experienced by all human beings since the dawn of time. On the other hand, it’s only in the last few decades that we’ve come to realise that! Hypnosis itself hasn’t changed for millennia, but our understanding of it and our ability to control it has changed quite profoundly. The history of hypnosis, then, is really the history of this change in perception. In the 2. 1st century, there are still those who see hypnosis as some form of occult power. Those who believe that hypnosis can be used to perform miracles or control minds are, of course, simply sharing the consensus view that prevailed for centuries. Recorded history is full of tantalising glimpses of rituals and practices that look very much like hypnosis from a modern perspective, from the “healing passes” of the Hindu Vedas to magical texts from ancient Egypt. These practices tend to be for magical or religious purposes, such as divination or communicating with gods and spirits. It’s important to remember, however, that what we see as occultism was the scientific establishment of its day, with exactly the same purpose as modern science – curing human ills and increasing knowledge. From a Western point of view, the decisive moment in the history of hypnosis occurred in the 1. Century (coinciding with the Enlightenment and the Age of Reason). The work of Franz Mesmer, amongst others, can be seen as both the last flourish of “occult” hypnosis and the first flourish of the “scientific” viewpoint. Mesmer was the first to propose a rational basis for the effects of hypnosis. Although we now know that his notion of “animal magnetism”, transferred from healer to patient through a mysterious etheric fluid, is hopelessly wrong, it was firmly based on scientific ideas current at the time, in particular Isaac Newton’s theories of gravitation. Mesmer was also the first to develop a consistent method for hypnosis, which was passed on to and developed by his followers. It was still a very ritualistic practice. Mesmer himself, for instance, liked to perform mass inductions by having his patients linked together by a rope, along which his “animal magnetism” could pass. He was also fond of dressing up in a cloak and playing ethereal music on the glass harmonica whilst this was happening. The popular image of the hypnotist as a charismatic and mystical figure can be firmly dated to this time. Inevitably, these magical trappings led to Mesmer’s downfall, and for a long time, hypnotism was a dangerous interest to have for anybody looking for a mainstream career. Nevertheless, the stubborn fact remained that hypnosis worked, and the 1. Century is characterised by individuals seeking to understand and apply its effects. Surgeons and physicians like John Elliotson and James Esdaille pioneered its use in the medical field, risking their reputation to do so, whilst researchers like James Braid began to peel away the obscuring layers of mesmerism, revealing the physical and biological truths at the heart of the phenomenon. Thanks to their persistence and efforts, by the end of the century hypnosis was accepted as a valid clinical technique, studied and applied in the great universities and hospitals of the day. This trend continued into the 2. Century, although in some ways, hypnosis became imprisoned by its own respectability, as it became mired in endless academic debate about “state” or “non- state”. This conundrum – does hypnosis have a real, physical basis, or not? Important shifts were happening elsewhere, however. First of all, the centre of hypnotic gravity moved from Europe to America, where all the most significant breakthroughs of the 2. Secondly, hypnosis became a popular phenomenon, something that was increasingly available to the layman, outside of the laboratory or clinic. At the same time, the style of hypnosis changed, from a direct instruction issued by an authoritarian figure (a legacy of the charismatic mesmerist) to a more indirect and permissive style of trance induction, based on subtly persuasive language patterns. This was largely due to the work of therapists such as Milton H. Erickson. More importantly, perhaps, hypnosis became increasingly practical, and regarded as a useful tool for easing psychological distress and bringing about profound change in a variety of situations. This theme has continued up to the present day. Advances in neurological science and brain imaging, together with the work of British psychologists Joe Griffin and Ivan Tyrrell who linked hypnosis to the Rapid Eye Movement (REM), have also helped to resolve the “state/non- state” debate, bringing hypnosis and hypnotic trance firmly into the realm of everyday experience. At the same time, the nature of “ordinary” consciousness is better understood as a series of trance states that we go into and out of all the time. The history of hypnosis, then, is like the search for something that was in plain view all along, and we can now see it for what it is – a universal phenomenon that’s an inextricable part of being human. The future of hypnosis will be to fully realise the incredible potential of our natural hypnotic abilities. Official Tickets and Your Source for Live Entertainment.
