Diet!
WEIGHT
LOSS: AS SIMPLE AS WE CAN MAKE IT
The
whole world seems to be on a diet! Their motivations are
varied; however they all seem to need or desire to weigh
less, and they want to feel and look better than they do
now. This is not surprising since statistics are reporting
that men, women and children are overweight at alarmingly
high percentages. These are disappointing statistics considering
that the American public has been obsessing over weight
loss for a decade. Statistics estimate that 60-70% of us
may be overweight with as much as 40% being obese (20 lbs
or more overweight). Obesity and excess fat has been linked
by medical research to a number of serious physical and
psychological concerns. It has become one of the most serious
health threats facing us today. Why is this happening--Why
are we gaining weight? There are many theories:
-
We
are not getting enough exercise.
-
WE ARE EATING TOO MUCH.
-
The
chemical additives and way that many of our foods are
processed may be impacting our metabolism.
-
We
are eating too many "fast foods".
-
Our
metabolic functions are not working properly.
-
The
types of food we are eating; ie, some think the problem
is fat, some think
it is carbohydrates, etc
No
matter what is causing it--THE FACT REMAINS WE ARE OVERWEIGHT
AND IT IS A PROBLEM THAT WE MUST ADDRESS.
We want an answer and we want it now. We want a simple answer
that we can understand. That we can combine with our own
exercise program and the foods that we eat. Every successful
weight management program must include...
Exercise! - We encourage you to walk vigorously for an hour a day
five or six days a week. Exercise is key and essential
to the success of your efforts.
VitaOne™ - Also vital to your success is proper vitamin and mineral
supplementation. In June 2002, JAMA (Journal of American
Medical Association) published report in which the Harvard
medical researchers said that very American, regardless
of age or health status should take a daily multivitamin.
Vitacorp International strongly urges you to follow this
advice and add VitaOne to your daily health regimen.
Right
Food Chioices - You must also be wise in the
selection of your food choices. Eat as many fresh fruits
and vegetables as possible. Choose your protein, carbohydrates
and fat foods wisely and in moderation. Excess is not
good. This is hard to do with today's eating habits. Especially
if you eat out in the many restaurants where "Super
Size" is the norm. IT HAS NEVER BEEN EASIER TO OVEREAT.
This is what Vitacorp International wants to help you
address--the impact that overeating has on your weight
management.

WHAT
IS THIS AMAZING APPETIZER DIET AND WHY DOES IT WORK? RECENT
RESEARCH HAS FOCUSED ON THE BENEFITS OF SOY, SOY PROTEIN
AND FIBER AS THEY RELATE TO WEIGHT MANAGEMENT !!
The Appetizer Diet is a delicious "fruit punch" beverage that you drink as an "appetizer" 30-45
minutes before eating your meal. The Appetizer Diet beverage
is creamy and delicious and has only 80 calories! It offers
the weight management benefits of fiber, soy and soy protein.
A LOW CALORIE, HEALTHY APPETIZER that can help you reach
your weight management goals--who could ask for more?
The Appetizer Diet is a combination of nutritional and educational
technology that Vitacorp International has chosen based
on research into why most diets fail. By listening to the
most common complaints that led people to abandon their
diets ("it didn't taste good", "I didn't
feel full", "it was too complicated", etc.),
we formulated a simple plan which takes into consideration
physiological, psychological and emotional issues.
What are the key ingredients of the Appetizer Diet and why
are they effective?
THE FIRST KEY INGREDIENT IS SOY PROTEIN:
Recent research has focused on soy proteins impact
on "fat storage" and lean muscle mass . Proteins
are "linked chains of amino acids" which are unique
and have specific functions within he body. Dietary protein
(soy protein) is broken down into its amino acid counterparts
in the body and,later, reconstituted to perform a specific
task. One of the critical tasks that amino acids perform
is to assist the body with converting fat to muscle and
energy! Soy protein is especially desirable because it is
comprised of every "essential" amino acid. Soy
protein has been widely used in the fitness world. Research
has focused on soy protein which is rich in isoflavones
and impacts fat storage and lean muscle mass support. Soy
impacts insulin levels which impact the storage of fat;
thus soy may help the body store less fat! Add that to soy's
ability to assist with lean muscle mass production which
helps burn fat and you have a powerful weight management
tool. Other research points to soy's ability to assist your
metabolic ability and make you feel fuller.
SOY IS AN EXCELLENT CHOICE FOR PROTEIN THAT CAN HELP YOU
REACH AND MAINTAIN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS GOALS:
*IMPACTS
FAT STORAGE
*SUPPORTS LEAN MUSCLE MASS
*SUPPORTS METABOLISM
*HELPS YOU FEEL FULL
*HELPS YOU FEEL MORE ENERGETIC
THE OTHER KEY INGREDIENT IS FIBER:
The
Appetizer Diet is a combination of psyllium, oat, guar gum
and pectin fiber. We are familiar with the impact that dietary
fiber has on our overall good health; but we may not be
aware of its importance to weight management. Over the past
two decades the studies relating the benefits of fiber as
observed in target populations like primitive cultures and
American Mormon and Seventh Day Adventist populations have
been growing. These studies are establishing a relationship
between the relative long lives and good health of these
populations to their consumption of high fiber foods.* The
importance of fiber is now being recognized, appreciated
and taught worldwide.
Just what is fiber and why is it so significant to our health
and weight management? Fiber is not just one substance.
It actually has "types" like soluble and insoluble,
crude or dietary. It has even broader classifications such
as cellulose, pectin, hemicellulose, lignin and gums. Denis
Burkitt in his book, "Eat Right to Stay Healthy and
Enjoy Life More, defined fiber like this: "Fiber is
the part of food which is not digested. Whereas fats, carbohydrates,
and proteins are almost entirely absorbed in the small intestine,
fiber passes through to the large intestine virtually unchanged.
Fiber does not provide energy or nutrients, or materials
for growth or repair. It is the only component of food that
contains almost no calories."
FIBER IS IMPORTANT FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS:
1. Prevention Magazines book, "The Fiber Revolution" pointed out that fiber:
a. Satisfies the appetite.*
b. Slows the digestion of food, so you are not hungry so soon.*
c. Impacts normal cholesterol levels, blood sugar levels and metabolism.*
d. Impacts binge eating.*
e. Impacts constipation.*"Constipation is common among dieters because they are eating less food. Not only is constipation
uncomfortable, but our weight-loss clinic at the New
England Deaconess, we've found that less-constipated
dieters have an easier time sticking to a weight loss
regimen."*
2.
Betty Kamen, PhD. points out even more in her book, "New
Facts About Fiber":
a. "Psyllium
husk encourages good colonic microbial metabolism.*
b. "Psyllium has the greatest bulking activity of
the dietary fibers studied to date, making elimination
smoother and more regular, and absorbing toxins on its
journey..."*
c. "Psyllium
is tolerated by children and adults.
d. Psyllium
exerts beneficial force on your glycemic index--your
body's response to foods with sugar.*
e. The
result is progressive with each successive meal, and
so accounts for the long-term beneficial consequences
of the fiber supplement."*
f. "One thing is certain: The higher the percentage of fiber
in your diet, the lower the tape- measure reading around
your waist."*
3.
Other fiber benefits:
a.
Guar Gum impacts normal cholesterol levels, supports normal
blood sugar levels and helps the obese with weight management.
b. FOS(Fructo-oligosaccharide) helps produce the "good" bacteria in the intestines that benefit digestion and
metabolism while reducing the "bad" bacteria,
aid in calcium absorption which assists metabolism, and
assists with the maintenance of normal blood sugar and
cholesterol levels.
c. Pectin helps maintain normal cholesterol balance as
well as provides other fiber benefits.
d. Other fiber research indicates that fiber may actually
reduce the number of calories absorbed during the course
of a day. Depending on the amount of fiber, it is estimated
that between 30-180 calories per day may be blocked. Over
the period of a year (if you are getting 15-30 grams of
fiber a day), that could result in 3-18 pounds.
THE APPETIZER DIET offers all the benefits of fiber which
help you with your weight management program by:
-HELPING
YOU FEEL FULLER LONGER*
-HELPING YOU FEEL SATISFIED WHEN EATING LESS*
-HELPING REDUCE DIETERS BINGING
