Dear Friend, If you or someone you love needs to lose weight, here are some facts you need to know: Scientists have known for over 91 years that low-calorie diets make people fatter!Popular diets have a built-in design flaw: they force you to obsess about food, so you inevitably drop off the diet. You have to, because you can't stop thinking about food. Once you're off the diet, you gain weight even easier than you did before you started, because your metabolism has slowed down and the food obsessions don't immediately go away. You've seen the statistics that say "dieters fail to keep their weight off 95% of the time". That number is based on an important study done in 1917 at the Carnegie Institution of Washington's Nutrition Laboratory. The study was repeated in 1944 at the University of Minnesota, at the request of the US Army. Both these studies showed there are many physical and psychological side effects of low-calorie diets, and one of those side effects is an average weight gain of 5 to 8 pounds. It's the diet that causes the eventual weight gain, not the dieter. For years we've been blamed for a failure that isbuilt in to the design of almost every popular diet on the market today. Almost all popular diets make you end up even fatter than you were before you started. And "eating right" can be just as bad...Even if you don't officially 'diet', but you 'eat right' by giving up red meat, taking all the skin off your chicken breasts, and looking for those 'heart-healthy' low-fat food products, you're setting yourself up for food cravings and slow but steady weight gain. That's because the low-fat advice was originally based on faulty science, and the media simply hasn't caught up with the latest studies proving that low-fat diets cause sugar cravings and food obsessions. Those scientific studies are publicly available for diet authors to read, but you continue to see articles and books claiming you can lose weight or stay healthy by 'eating less and cutting back on calories and fat', even though the advice doesn't work now, and never did.
Most popular diets don't work, but authors believe they will because so many other authors have said it in the past.I even believed it myself for years, and I wrote many 'helpful' articles containing tips and suggestions about eating less and cutting back on fat. Now I know my well-meaning advice undermined my desire to help people overcome their sugar addiction and food cravings. Now I know that there is a natural way to overcome food cravings and stop the metabolic pattern that makes some people put on body fat easier than other people. When you stop thinking that being overweight is your fault, and start looking at the specific foods that cause food cravings and obsessions, you have won half the battle against obesity. Then, if you discover that certain foods can actually help repair the metabolic damage and help you burn fat faster, build more muscles, and help you lose weight without going hungry, you win the war. That, in a nutshell, is the basis of a revolutionary new way to lose weight by using the nutritional power of good, wholesome, satisfying food. Here's what works:
That makes sense, doesn't it? So why do so many people keep going on low-calorie diets, even though they almost always regain all the weight they lose, and then some? Because we've been brainwashed into believing that the 95% failure rate of almost all popular diets is the fault of the dieter, not the diet. Even though this was proven to be false 91 years ago. The fact is, most people still believe that overweight folks have a character flaw that makes them incapable of eating moderately. It is also believed that overweight people get that way because they don't have the gumption to get up and exercise like they should. But that's also been proven to be untrue. It's simply a matter of prejudice against overweight people that makes most of us, including overweight people themselves, blame obesity and excess weight on gluttony or sloth. When it's really caused by the foods we eat. You know as well as I do that you can't possibly stay on a diet if you can't control your appetite.And you can't eat right if you're constantly besieged by strong cravings for snacks and treats. Even when they aren't dieting, many people find it almost impossible to control their cravings for fattening foods. Since weight loss seems to be impossible to these folks, they become desperate and buy expensive and often dangerous diet drugs that have unhealthy side effects. Many people even sign up for high-risk weight loss surgery. Fortunately, there is a natural way to control your food cravings, even for sugar and other refined carbohydrates that are truly addictive. You can control your appetite naturally while eating foods that charge up your metabolism and help your body burn fat faster, while also building extra muscle mass. The right foods work far better (and they're way safer) than diet pills or appetite-suppressant drugs. And these same foods have powerful antioxidants that improve your immune system and help protect you against cancer. And they can even help reduce the risk of insulin resistance that can lead to diabetes and heart disease. You probably think I'm talking about broccoli and other veggies, but I'm not. I'll explain in a minute... Eating the right foods can help you lose weight, and they keep you healthy. Eating the wrong foods can make you sick. Getting fat isn't the worst thing that can happen if you don't eat a healthy diet. The health dangers of eating the wrong foods...Many people don't know that eating too much sugar, refined carbohydrates and processed foods can lead to:
And refined carbohydrates like sugar and white flour can rob our bodies - and our children's bodies - of important nutrients like calcium and fat-soluble vitamins that help build strong bones and nervous systems. Nobody wants to be overweight, and no parent wants to feed their kids in a way that will make them another statistic in the childhood obesity and diabetes epidemic... But how can you lose weight and eat right if you always feel hungry?Even worse - what if you're one of those folks who actually gain weight even when you eat less food than your thin friends do? Did you know that many people put on weight even when they eat a low-calorie diet?
Some of us (and I'm one of them) have a genetically-inherited tendency to process our food differently from other people. When we eat refined carbohydrates they turn almost immediately to fat. The reason why we gain weight easier than other people is a condition called insulin resistance, which makes us store more fat. Insulin resistance is the precursor to diabetes, and can also cause other illnesses like heart disease, gout, some kinds of arthritis, gastrointestinal problems, and more. There are some people in the world who can eat sugar and other refined carbs without getting insulin resistance, so they don't have to worry about getting fat, and they probably won't get heart disease. I'm not one of those people, and if you have strong cravings for sugar and chips and ice cream, you probably aren't one of the lucky ones, either. Unfortunately, the people who are most prone to insulin resistance are the folks who have strong cravings for the foods that will do the most damage to our health - refined carbohydrates like sugar, pastries, noodles and desserts. I recently found out something that made me mad...Back in 1917, and again in 1945, studies were done to find out what happened when people went on a low-calorie diet. The study volunteers actually ate more calories than the kind of diet that almost every doctor tells you to go on when he thinks you're overweight, and they certainly ate way more calories than you get on most fad diets, like the cabbage soup diet and the 3-day diet. You'll see why I got mad when you see what scientists have known for over 91 years - that low-calorie and low-fat diets actually cause the following health problems:
Take a look at some of the serious symptoms on that list:Depression, mood swings, fatigue, and disinterest in sex: Most doctors believe that the only way to lose weight is to cut back on the calories, even though scientists have known for almost a century that serious psychological problems could result. Many people take antidepressants, like Wellbutrin®, for both depression and to lose weight. It is impossible to be motivated to stay on a diet, (or to do anything else, for that matter), when you suffer from chronic depression. Several famous studies have found that the depression may actually get worse for a while after you give up a low-calorie diet. It takes time for the body to recover from semi-starvation eating plans. Constant hunger and food cravings, especially for refined carbs: When you combine the lack of motivation that always accompanies depression and chronic fatigue, and match it up with constant hunger and food cravings, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise to find out that most people who start a low-calorie diet will actually end up gaining weight. And that's exactly what happens. We try to eat the right way, according to all the current dietary guidelines. We watch our calories and fats. Then we fall off the diet, as everyone does, and we end up fatter than we started. Then we buck up, find another well of motivation, and start the process over again. No doctor would prescribe a drug with that many dangerous side effects if she knew that the drug would actually make the patient's condition worse over 95% of the time. Yet reduced calorie and low-fat diets are prescribed every day by well-meaning doctors, because they believe the failure rate is caused by their patient's lack of self-control. It's really no wonder that so many people are overweight. When we 'eat right' according to all the currently believed 'common knowledge', the supposedly 'healthy' diet will cause us to have food cravings that make weight gain inevitable! And we end up fatter than we started. I uncovered the answer to the problem of food cravings and sugar addiction.It was hiding in scientific studies that were done back in the first part of the 20th century, before the obesity epidemic exploded in the 1960s. The answer has been hiding in plain sight all along. I discovered that highly-respected scientists had studied the issue, and their studies proved that:
These studies have been mostly forgotten by the obesity experts, but they give us the keys to weight loss and appetite control. And that's good news...By using the information that was discovered by those well-respected scientists back in the early part of the 1900s, it was possible to design a diet that:
This new craving control diet will not cause your metabolism to slow down, it won't make you hungry, and itwon't make you gain weight when the diet is over. In fact, this diet is based on such satisfying natural foods that you'll want to feed your whole family this way. Then you can be assured that your kids won't get fat, like many of their classmates, and their risk of getting heart disease and diabetes will be greatly reduced. Since you don't get hungry on this diet, and you eat delicious, old-fashioned satisfying food, you'll never want to go back to eating the way you did before. Why this issue is particularly important to me...I've been writing about health issues for years, and my special passion is helping people overcome their addiction to sugar and taking control of food cravings that sabotage any healthy diet. I started writing about this issue because it has been something that I struggled with all my life. I worked in the health care industry for many years before becoming a full-time writer, and I once held a license as an addictions counselor. While working for a major health insurance company I discovered that the majority of our claims were for chronic illnesses that were caused, in part, by obesity and poor eating habits. Because I think this issue is so important, I wrote a popular book about sugar addiction in 2002. That book gives readers some easy mental exercises that they can use to increase their will-power and self control. The meditations in the book and the extra tips I included do help folks say 'no' to fattening, unhealthy food. The book, entitled Weight Loss: How to Keep Your Commitment, is still available on Amazon.com - and it has helped hundreds of people control their cravings so they could stay on a healthy diet. But now I know there's a better way to control cravings...As the years moved on, it became harder and harder for me to control my own weight. The way our bodies process food changes over time, and many of us tend to put on extra pounds as we get older. That was certainly true for me. So I watched my portions, ate fewer calories, ate less fat, and followed all the current dietary advice about how to eat right. I was, basically, following the kind of diet that causes food obsessions and cravings, but I didn't know it yet. It got to the point that I was fighting so hard to control my cravings, that even the meditations that I wrote about in my own book were starting to fail me. Food was becoming the enemy, instead of a source of pleasure. Something had to change. I started looking for a way to control my appetite that would work even on days when my will-power wasn't very strong. Basically, I wanted a way to eliminate food cravings. If my appetite could be controlled naturally, I wouldn't need the mental exercises. I wouldn't need any self-control. And I wouldn't need any will-power. I found the answer, and I call it the Craving Control Diet. What the Craving Control Diet can do for you...When you use the easy method I recommend for breaking the metabolic pattern that makes you gain weight easier, you can lose weight without going on one of those dangerous low-calorie diets. Your meals will taste better, and you'll be more satisfied after you've eaten. The special foods that help you control your appetite are old-fashioned foods that people have enjoyed for centuries. You may eat foods on this diet that you've been avoiding, and missing, for years. If you've been on and off low-calorie diets for years, you may be suffering from fatigue, low-energy levels, mood swings, and even depression. The wholesome, real foods on this diet will help you recover from these debilitating illnesses. If you feed your kids the foods I suggest in my report, they'll stay active and healthy. If they're overweight now, they'll gradually lose their excess pounds without going hungry, and without feeling an uncontrollable urge to steal fattening high-sugar foods. Many people who eat the foods I recommend find that their blood pressure and blood sugar levels go down, and their doctors can reduce their medications. If you suffer from obesity-related illnesses, like sleep apnea or lower back pain, the symptoms may go away as you lose weight naturally. But don't take my word for it...Let me introduce you to a family that found the solution by reading the same scientific reports and statistics that I did. The couple had previously tried every diet their doctor gave them, and they carefully ate nothing but low-fat food, just as the experts said they should. They avoided red meat, they bought non-fat milk, and they went on one low-calorie diet after another. But both of them continued to gain even more weight every time they fell off one of those diets - and they always fell off the diets, the same way everyone else does. He was a former college athlete, but before he was 40 years old he weighed over 400 pounds and could barely walk a block without gasping for breath and feeling intense pain in his knees. They knew there was a very real likelihood that he wouldn't live to see his children graduate from high school. Both parents suffered from mood swings and occasional depression, and there were frequent arguments because they were both tired and stressed. The husband was in a great deal of pain from illnesses associated with obesity, and they were both extremely worried because their grade-school aged kids were already starting to get fat. Something was very wrong. They were following the experts' advice to the letter, but it wasn't working. In fact, each year things got worse. Then they remembered that their grandparents had never been fat, even though they didn't eat low-fat foods, 'lite' food, or commercial diet shakes. In fact, they ate red meat, drank whole milk, fried their fish in lard, put butter on their bread and veggies, and made delicious gravies and desserts made from real cream. Their grandparents didn't use modern convenience foods to save time, but they still managed to have the energy to raise large, happy families. The kids and relatives always gathered around the kitchen table, because the kitchen was the soul of their home. Our couple decided that their grandparents knew more about nutrition than the modern experts did, but the grandparents weren't around any more to teach them what they knew. So they started hunting down and studying everything they could find about traditional food. Eventually, they found the research done by the world's first nutritional anthropologists, the traveling scientists who visited with the healthiest people on the planet and documented the foods that protected these folks from getting heart disease, diabetes, obesity, or any of the other 'diseases of civilization' that are caused by modern industrialized food. Then this couple designed their own real food diet, based on the same documents that form the foundation of theCraving Control Diet. They had discovered that most of the food sold in supermarkets lacks the fat-fighting elements that kept their grandparents thin, energetic and healthy, so they found local sources of real food. Within a year he lost over 150 pounds, and she lost almost 50 pounds. They got their energy back, most of their pain and obesity-related illnesses went away, and they were confident that their kids would never suffer from obesity or diabetes. They're now enjoying their life, and their food, more than they have since they were kids. This was an extremely motivated family that was willing to go to a great deal of work to turn their lives around. Will you have this level of success? I don't know - but I do know it will be easier for you to find the information you need to follow the same path, because it has been painstakingly gathered for you in the Craving Control Diet.
