Why Bother with the Master Cleanse?

There's a lot of buzz surrounding the Master Cleanse. Lately it seems like every Hollywood actress or actor who needs to get in shape is turning to this decades old health system that involves drinking a mixture of lemon juice, maple syrup, and cayenne pepper.

With all the diets out there to choose from why would anyone bother with the Master Cleanse?

To Skip Ahead Click Here

There's two main reasons people like the Master Cleanse. The first (and most obvious) is that it works. The results people are getting with the Master Cleanse border on miraculous, and they are backed by thousands of devoted users who are living testimonials to the effectiveness of the Master Cleanse.

The second reason people choose the Master Cleanse over other diets and wellness programs is that it's fast. The typical person only spends 10 days on the Master Cleanse, compared to other diets that can last months or even years you can see why they choose the Master Cleanse.

Another interesting thing about the Master Cleanse lasting just 10 days is that you only need a short term burst of will power to get through it. Having to sacrifice for months is what makes other diets so hard to stay on, but most people can will their way through 10 days.

What can you expect from 10 days on the Master Cleanse? To Skip Ahead Click Here

Even though most people are going on the Master Cleanse to lose weight quickly, there's many other health benefits to be gained by doing the Master Cleanse. Flushing out your system is what the Master Cleanse is really designed to do. Even back 60 years ago when the Master Cleanse was first invented people had health problems as a result of waste building up inside of them. Today with processed foods, pollution, and all around poor diets our bodies desperately need to be flushed out every once in a while.

When you flush out your body with the Master Cleanse the waste you eliminate will be abnormal. The smell, color, and texture of the waste that comes out of your body shocks some people, so you should be prepared. To Skip Ahead Click Here


If you want to try the Master Cleanse there's more you need to know then just drinking the lemonade mixture for 10 days. In fact most people who try the Master Cleanse without knowing all the steps fail. If you think the Master Cleanse is something you would like to try there's a good book at CLICK HERE that you should read before starting the Master Cleanse because it covers the common problems people face, and how to avoid them.

The Secret to Permanently Losing Weight

The Secret to Permanently Losing Weight


The Secret to Permanently Losing Weight That No One Will Ever Tell You About…Not Even Your Doctor!

FAT - Friend or Foe? Understand it and you can easily control it.

Click Here to skip to the One Week® Diet Cleanse


Most people think of fat as their enemy. It’s unsightly, it’s unhealthy (biggest contributor to diabetes and heart disease), and makes your normal motions of life burdensome.

Like any enemy, however, you’ll never conquer it until you understand its motivation and purpose. That’s right, fat actually serves a purpose. It gives you energy and protects you. In essence, fat is your friend, that’s why it doesn’t want to leave you. As funny as that sounds, it’s true. Now you are going to learn the little-known secret on how to get rid of this “friend” forever.

HOW FAT GIVES YOU ENERGY
The first role of fat is to supply you with energy.

Your body breaks down fat with enzymes to release glycogen and fatty acids into the blood. These circulating fatty acids in turn supply muscle cells with the energy they require to function. When your body lacks energy-producing nutrients (the American diet), it produces fat and stores it to help supply you with energy. Click Here to skip to the One Week® Diet Cleanse

HOW FAT PROTECTS YOU
Fat protects us externally. Eskimos, for example, have more body fat than people from other regions. They need the fat to protect them from the cold. But fat also protects us internally. From what? It protects us from foreign invaders. This is where the story gets interesting...

By “foreign invaders” we mean the additives that are in our foods that aren’t themselves food. Additives such as pesticides, preservatives, trans-fatty acids (oil used to make French fries, etc.),, or dozens of other foreign substances in our modern-day diets. Read the ingredients on a box of donuts, this will give you an idea.

One hundred years ago excess fat on a person was rare. Even as little as fifty years ago the average person weighed twenty-five pounds less than they do today! If you don’t believe it rent the video Woodstock. Out of the half a million people present at the rock concert, see if you can find even one fat person. Compare this with today where over thirty percent of youths are overweight and up to seventy percent of adults. So what changed? Today’s foods are filled with additives (foreign invaders) that pack the pounds on, yesterdays foods weren’t. Click Here to skip to the One Week® Diet Cleanse

TERRORISTS IN YOUR BODY!
When these foreign invaders enter your body through what you eat and drink, the body doesn’t recognize them as food (because they aren’t food) so it treats them like they are “terrorists.” It first tries to get rid of them through its natural cleansing process. If this doesn’t work it imprisons them by building up fat to prevent them from running free in your blood stream where they could wreak havoc or even kill you. In this way, fat actually serves to protect your body from these poisons.

HOW YOUR METABOLISM GOT CRIPPLED
If you think you put on weight because you were born with a slow metabolism, think again. As pointed out, fifty years ago people weighed twenty-five pounds less than they do today. Were people not “born with a slow metabolism” back then? See, a slow metabolism is not a genetic gift from God, it’s a dysfunction manufactured by the foreign invaders. The poisons you consume in foods, in addition to creating fat as a protection device, are what slow down your metabolism which in turn puts on even more pounds.

HOW DIETS CAN HARM YOU
Think of fat as “walls” that your body erects in order to imprison the foreign invaders (terrorists) that have entered your body through food. Now, what would happen if you tore down those walls without first removing the foreign invaders? That’s right. Whether by means of appetite suppressants, extreme dieting, metabolism boosters, or some other means, if you try to lose weight without first removing the foreign invaders, the terrorists will be free to ravage your body. This is why most people feel worse after dieting! This is why dieting can actually make you sick…if you don’t cleanse out the foreign invaders first! Click Here to skip to the One Week® Diet Cleanse

FOREIGN INVADERS ABOUND
According to the Environmental Protection Agency 4.3 billion pounds of chemical substances are legally dumped into our nation's environment each year. This comes out to be about 15 pounds for each person in America.

70,000 chemicals can be found in the food, water and cosmetics we consume and use.

According to the US Geological Survey, a common head of lettuce has 38 different toxic chemicals in it. A cucumber 41 toxins. And in a tomato 51 toxins.

HOW TO LOSE POUNDS QUICKLY, SAFELY AND PERMANENTLY
To lose the fat on a permanent basis you’re going to have to do two things:

  1. Cleanse the foreign invaders out of your body.

  1. Infuse your body with a full range of energy-providing super nutrients.

Do these two steps and your body won’t need the fat to protect you and to give you energy. The foreign invaders will be gone and the infusion of nutrients will give your body all the energy it needs. Your metabolism will adjust, which will further keep the fat off. Now you’ve conquered fat for good, because there is no reason for it to be in your body. Doing these two functions is the secret to losing and keeping the weight off. Click Here to skip to the One Week® Diet Cleanse

BODY BURDEN - a term you will be hearing more and more about:
The term "body burden" is now commonly used in reference to harmful chemicals that have entered into our bodies since the beginning of the 20th century.

Toxic chemicals commonly get into our bodies through the air we breathe, processed foods we eat and chemicals in cosmetics we absorb through the skin. Pregnant women can pass them to the developing fetus through the placenta. The term " body burden " refers to the total amount of these chemicals that are present in the human body at a specific point in time. Toxins pose a serious threat to our health and longevity. You could say our bodies are turning into toxic soups. The natural life that our ancestors enjoyed is becoming our of reach in our culture.

Body Burden is a serious situation that affects us all. It is a human emergency and it must be made broadly known. A new Major motion picture called "287", due out in the fall of 2009 is expected to usher in this awareness. What Inconvenient Truth is to your external environment, "287" is to your internal environment. Click Here to skip to the One Week® Diet Cleanse

Unfortunately in our culture you can find out more about the chemicals in the fish you eat than you can discover about the chemicals stored in your own body. In other countries, Sweden for example, body burden monitoring is more extensive, and the government tracks how well it is doing in reducing people's exposure to environmental chemicals. Body burden monitoring also can serve as an early warning system that identifies new chemicals that are increasing in people, and is something that all governments should be paying attention to. We could take a lesson from the Swedes and encourage the establishment of rigorous community-based body burden monitoring programs worldwide.

Interestingly, the men of Sweden rank third in the world in terms of longevity, living an average of 75.35 years and women ranked fifth worldwide with an average lifespan of 80.79 years.

Another lesson we may want to borrow from the people of Sweden is that cleaner diet, focusing on the intake of precise nutrients that fortify the liver and other internal cleansing organs, and the use of Medically tested herbal cleanses can be significant in relieving the body of excess fat and inflammation stemming from chemical toxicity.

One clinically tested product that has swept Sweden by storm and is now available all over the UK and North America is the One Week® Diet Cleanse.

The Dreaded Return of the Fat....

Have you ever known anyone,who made a decision to go on a diet, actually stuck to it until they lost the all the weight they wanted to?

Only to run into them a few months later and findthat they had gained all of it back... plus more?

Has this ever happened to you?

It doesn't have to be that way...

One of the reasons that this happens over and over again is because people have not been taught how to use their brains effectively. (Click here to skip ahead)

EVERY PERSON...is a master at maintaining their weight perfectly. Granted they may be 50 pounds too heavy, but they are able to stay within 4 to 5 pounds of their their usual poundage, without much thought.

You see we have an internal setting that automatically controls our weight. When you change this setting through the techniques in this program your habits begin to change automatically and you find that your body begins transforming before your eyes with barely a thought.

Now, when you notice those people that lose theweight only to gain it all back...

You are looking at people that made the tragic mistake of not changing the self image they have on the inside, to one of a thin person.

And...

the mind rejects this new body because it doesn't match up with the person they believe they are on the inside. (or if you are my ex-husband, you are in denial and rely on a carnival mirror)

Remember...we are built to be successful. It is only a matter of understanding how to use our minds correctly.


PS- it's never too late to transform your body. It just starts with a decision: CLICK HERE

Lose 10 to 15 Pounds in 7 Days

Crash Diets Have Miserably Failed:
-A crash diet is a diet which is extreme in its deprivations, typically severely restricting calorie intake. In other words a Crash Diet forces your metabolism to not burn as many calories as are required to maintain your energy level. Thus a crash diet differs from outright starvation only slightly.

Such diets are typically unhealthy and are rarely - if ever - recommended by doctors or dietitians. Crash diets can lead to malnutrition, and are not a recommended means of weight loss. After a person discontinues a crash diet, the "yo-yo effect" is often seen. This causes a person to eat far more than normal, causing them to regain even more weight than before.

Weight-loss Centers Work But....
It is possible to lose weight at weight loss centers and clinics but problem is these not only very costly but do rarely show desired results. They make it imperative on you that you join their centers on regular basis; which is near impossible in this fast modern age. And on top of it, they sell you their dietary supplements. So all the effort for losing weight is yours not theirs. And no sooner you will stop going to weight loss center, you will regain weight. These weight loss centers and clinics are meant for rich people, middle class simply cannot afford this extravagance.

Low Carb Diets Have Failed...
It is far better that you remain overweight than losing weight by carrying out any low carb diet plan. Low carb diets plans are not only very hard to follow but these deprive your body of vital energy--- thus rendering it miserably "half-active" and sunken. After two weeks of low carb diets, you will notice that you have lost some weight. But, is it fat that you have lost? No, it is muscle. Fat is yet intact there in your body.

Never forget -- LOSING BODY FAT IS YOUR ONLY GOAL, NOT MUSCLES TISSUES.

Weight-loss Pills Have Failed...You can lose weight to some extent by swallowing pills and drugs. But you will have to put your health on risk. All kinds of weight loss pills like herbal pills, diet supplement pills, and all other weight loss drugs or liquids are not only unreasonable ways of losing weight, rather these are injurious to health.

Increased blood pressure, decreased metabolism and heart troubles are commonly known problems caused by weight-control pills.

You will regain back all of lost weight no sooner then when you stop swallowing pills.

Some of the side-effects of weight loss pills are:
Fatigue and hyper-activity
Heart arrhythmias and palpitations
Congestive heart failure or heart attack
Stroke
Headaches
Nervousness
Restlessness
Insomnia
High blood pressure
Dry mouth
Vomiting and diarrhea or constipation
Intestinal disturbances
Tightness in chest
Tingling in extremities
Excessive perspiration
Other side effects include tremors, confusion, heart attack and convulsions, hallucinations, shallow breathing, renal failure, Disruption in menstrual cycle, Change in libido, Hair loss, Blurred vision, Fever and urinary tract problems,.Dizziness, Disruption in menstrual cycle, Change in libido, Hair loss, Blurred vision,Fever and urinary tract problems,

Low fat Diets Have Failed...
It is quite possible to lose weight by eating pure low fat diets, but yet there is a big paradox. Before low fats diets came into fashion in American society two decades ago, there was only one overweight person among every five people; whereas now every four people are overweight or obese among every five Americans. Is it not a big failure of low fat diets?

They help you lose weight but no sooner you start normal food, you regain back all the lost weight-----sometimes even more. Pure low fats diets really reduce weight but you will seldom eat them. All the inorganic low fat diets are rarely up to their labels.

Low Calorie Diets Have Failed:...
Calories are fuel for our body and are necessary for every small action that is performed inside body. Even fat-burning process and metabolism will slow down if there will not be sufficient calories in body. An overweight person needs wholesome amount of calories to burn fats in the body. That is why low calorie diets do not show any remarkable effect on overweight people even if these are used for long time. Like low fat diets, these are rarely up to their labels.

Big Names Of Weight Loss Industry Have Failed...
Like other companies the main target of LA Weight loss, Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers is to maximize their profits.
Jenny sells her membership which is $ 20 plus cost of the food. Altogether it will cost you $ 12 per day. Result is that you are paying hugely for just a diet (die+t).
LA Weight Loss is not different. You have to buy what they call LA LITES. Nothing more than sugar and soy bars to control sugar urges and creating a feeling of being full. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BUY THESE BUT YOU WILL BE FORCED TO! Why?------Just because, like other big companies, profit and only profit is their target; So, you need approximately 80 boxes: $28.00 for each box. That's right another 2,240.00!
Weight watchers will charge $ 30 sign up fee. You have to attend weekly meeting and pay $ 11 for each meeting. So, the first month will run you about $ 74.00. And after this it's about 44.00 per month. And, don't think of skipping a meeting. If you will, you will have to pay penalty. They tell you that you can eat anything you want as long as you are within limits of 22 points per day. A slice of chocolate cake, even a small one is about 13 points.

Books and ebooks have failed...
Books could be really very good medium of teaching and training people how to lose weight if these are written with honest intent. I have read quite a few books and e-books and I found almost all of them immersed in boring scientific jargon and needless details. Out of whole book you will find just one or two pages of useful information.

Lets determine real cause of your excessive weight.

In order to find permanent and definite solution to weight loss we must determine the real cause of weight gain and kill all the prevalent myths.

Don't blame Your Genes.
Yes, it is true that you are overweight not because of your genes! It is bogus theory and sells hopelessness only.

Ancient Chinese health sciences rule out genetic causes of obesity and a recent study has found that genes do not transport excessive weight and obesity. Have you seen any overweight doctor or nutritionist? Certainly not, because doctors and nutritionists know what to eat, how to eat and when to eat. There are thousands of doctors and nutritionists whose parents were overweight but why did they not inherit fattening genes? This fact rules out gene theory of excessive weight and obesity.

Bellyful Of Food Gives You Contentment, Energy And Life. Eating bellyful of your favorite food is your birth right and you are justified in doing so. Eating food till you feel satiated is a pleasure.

You cannot afford to miss this pleasure for long. Eastern people eat everything but seldom get overweight. Even in western societies you will find millions of people who eat everything and yet do not gain weight. Lack Of Exercise Doesn't Make You Overweight. It is paradoxical to believe that lack of exercise makes you overweight. Exercise can help you lose weight but that does not mean that lack of exercising made you overweight.

Almost 98 % of people don't exercise but all of them are not overweight. Exercise is one of many ways of losing weight and staying healthy. But lack of exercise is not responsible for your excessive weight and obesity. You are overweight because of your unhealthy and faulty liver, which is not detoxifying your blood and producing enough of fat-burning hormones.

Instead it is letting fats pile up and water retain in your body.

Liver is very vital organ in your body and your survival is dependent on the liver's ability to perform its functions. It not only produces fat-burning hormones, rather it activates and regulates hormones produced by thyroid.

Those who have healthy liver can not be overweight, no matter what they eat. Restoration of liver's health is guaranteed start of weight loss. Being an overweight person you have two goals to achieve: Losing the existing fat and staying slim all your life .

Will you believe if I tell you that permanent solution to weight loss is food and food only?It's absolutely true.

Food is energy as well as a medicine. And because of these qualities, food can bring lots of changes in our body by manipulating different types of hormones.· Food can make you overweight·

Food can make you thin.· Food can make you healthy.· Food can make you sick!· Food can make you happy· Food can make you sad!· Food can make you weak· Food can make you strong· Food can increase or or decrease your libido.

Did you know about such qualities of food? Believe it or not but it's true that food is mightier medicine than any proclaimed drug. And it is safe too.Your metabolism is controlled by hormones and hormones are controlled by foods that you eat.

Special foods can promote health and functions of glands like liver and thyroid and cause them to release fat-burning hormones in blood flow, thus speeding up fat-burning process.

Fat Loss Secrets Of The U.S. Military

By The Muscle Nerd, Jeff Anderson
Click Here

In This Fat Loss Article...

"We do more before 6 am than MOST people do ALL DAY!" Here's why... Why "body weight" exercises RULE when it comes to burning off body fat! Don't feel like "working out"? Drill Sergeants DON'T CARE...neither should YOU!


When the U.S. armed forces set out to develop a fitness program that would hone a lean, “fit-to-fight” physique, they didn’t have the option of waiting around for the next “fad diet”...

...they don’t Google “fat loss” on the internet and sign up for the first advertised “guru” program they can find...

...and they DON’T buy “fat burner” supplements by the truckload and issue them at morning roll call.

The program they use MUST be effective enough to work on ALL body types, both men and women, and for anyone from the 18 year old knucklehead fresh off the turnip truck to the 50-something career soldier nearing retirement.

But before you take off, thinking this is going to be some recruitment ad to try to get you to enlist in the armed forces just to save a few bucks on your current gym membership, let me tell you why the military’s fitness program (in my biased opinion) is the finest on the planet...and YOUR ticket to creating the best body of your life in 2008.

Military Fat Loss Principle #1: Train Early – Burn Early

In the military, we don’t wait for the sun to rise to begin our day. PT (“physical training” or exercise) starts at anywhere from 5am to 6am each day.

Training early in the morning jumpstarts your metabolism and shifts it into high gear to burn fat all day long...and you don’t need to be a soldier to take advantage of that!

Try to get your workout in as early as possible in the day to ratchet up your body’s natural fat-burning abilities before your metabolism slows down in the evening.

Military Fat Loss Principle #2: Training Is MANDATORY

Trust me...there’s no “I don’t feel like working out today” in the military!

You’re behind had BETTER be standing in line when training begins or it’s likely you’ll be scrubbing toilets until midnight.

For you, punishment may not be that severe, but if you’re truly committed to creating your dream body and melting off any unwanted pounds, you have to find a way to eliminate as many excuses as possible that can keep you from staying on track.

Take an honest look at the reasons you may have stopped training in the past. Was it the time commitment? Scheduling conflicts? Maybe you can train at home instead? Perhaps find a gym closer to your job so you can hit it on the way to work or during lunch?

Whatever you can identify as an obstacle, brainstorm ways to eliminate it for good...and make training MANDATORY.

Military Fat Loss Principle #3: Bodyweight Training Rules

You won’t catch any self-respecting soldier admitting to using any infomercial ab gizmo!

Pushups...situps...pullups and other bodyweight exercises are the fundamental core of the military’s exercise program.

Why?

Because the government understands that to maintain a lean, strong physique, you need to fuel your body’s primary fat burning “engine”...your muscles!

You see, for every pound of lean muscle on your body, you burn an extra 14 calories per day.

Compare that to just 4 calories burned for every pound of body fat and you can see that you can burn over 300% more calories throughout the day just by focusing on building more lean muscle and holding back the fat gain.

For several reasons (that I don’t have room for here), bodyweight training is superior for this type of fitness goal and ideal for all ages and fitness levels.

Oh, and an added benefit for you...bodyweight training can be done anywhere!

At home, while traveling, at the gym...ANYWHERE!

Don't Be Fooled by Artificial Sweeteners

Have you ever asked yourself, Is my Diet Coke (or Pepsi in my case) making me FAT?

Have you changed ALL of your eating habits? or only the ones that you THINK are making you fat?

Why do some people still not lose weight? If I had to pick the most common reason why most people’s efforts have proved no results, I would say it is the deception of artificial sweeteners and processed diet foods. Yes, you heard right. It is the diet coke, diet snacks, processed foods and artificial sweetener in your coffee that is keeping you fat.

How is this so?

Artificial sweeteners overwhelm your liver.

Your liver is your largest internal organ, and it’s responsible for an astonishing variety of life-sustaining and health-promoting tasks, including those that make healthy weight loss and weight management possible. Integral to countless metabolic processes, the liver supports the digestive system, controls blood sugar and regulates fat storage. One of your liver’s most important functions, and the most crucial to your weight loss, is chemically breaking down everything that enters your body, from healthy vegetables, to not so healthy fast food, from healthy water to not so healthy soda.

It’s your liver’s job to distinguish between the nutrients you need to absorb and the dangerous or unnecessary substances that must be filtered out of your bloodstream. But when the liver is clogged and overwhelmed with toxins, like artificial sweeteners, it can’t do a very effective job of processing nutrients and fats. If it can not process the nutrients and fats that your body needs, this will cause you to gain weight or will prevent you from losing weight.

Your liver also produces bile, a crucial substance for detoxifying our bodies. It is the job of bile to help our bodies break down the fats we need and to assimilate fat-soluble vitamins. But when our bile becomes overly congested with the toxins it’s trying to filter out, it simply can’t function properly. It becomes thick, viscous and highly inefficient in breaking down fats. The result: You are more likely to gain weight and to have a greater difficulty losing it. So the more toxic your body becomes, the more difficulty you’ll have losing weight and keeping it off because your liver just can not work properly to break down fat.

Read enough? Go right to the solution?

Are artificial sweeteners considered a toxin?

What qualifies something as a “toxin”? A toxin is anything that your body does not recognize as a natural food source. The reason why artificial sweeteners have “zero” calories is because your body does not recognize them as a food source. For example, the chemical process to make Splenda (sucralose) alters the chemical composition of the sugar so much that it is somehow converted to a completely different molecule than sugar. This type of “fake” sugar molecule does not occur in nature and therefore your body does not possess the ability to properly metabolize it. This is how the makers of Splenda claim that it has zero calories, because in theory it should not be digested or metabolized by the body (Although it has been shown that some people’s body do absorb up to 15% of the artificial sweeteners they ingest). So the more artificial sweeteners that you consume in one day, the more you are overwhelming your liver with toxins and the less able it is to do its job of processing fat. And what happens if the liver can’t do its job? You can’t lose weight or worse yet, you gain weight.

What if you don’t use artificial sweeteners? Don’t be fooled. Almost every diet product on the market has some kind of artificial sweetener added to it. Even some children’s snacks are now being made with sucralose (Splenda) and most flavored waters contain sucralose or aspartame.

Now add up how many things you eat in one day that contain some form of artificial sweetener. The list may be very long. How overwhelmed do you think your liver is? Does it have the ability to work properly? Even if you keep your calories at bay and only drink Diet Coke with your meals, will you truly get down to the weight that you want, and stay there? It has been in my experience that the answer is “no” and until you are ready to commit yourself to a healthy way of eating, weight loss will always be a constant struggle.

What else do sweeteners do?

Sweeteners increase appetite


Artificial sweeteners tell your taste buds that, “sweet stuff has arrived,” which to the brain means, “nutrition has arrived.” When artificial sweetened drink or food reaches the small intestine, the receptors find no nutrition. A message is then sent back to the brain saying, “We’ve been tricked-there’s no nutrition here.” The appestat (the part of your brain that triggers satiety) sends the message to “keep eating because we need nutrition to help process all this fake food and run your body.” So even after you eat a good portioned healthy meal (along with your diet coke) you still feel like your starving all day, or you become very hungry soon after. Your healthy eating efforts may be sabotaged if you continue to feel hungry all day. No one likes to feel hungry so you continue to eat more food until you feel satisfied, which in your effort to lose weight, may just be too much.

Read enough? Go right to the solution?

Sweeteners Increase our Sweet Tooth

Saccharin (Sweet n Low) is 300 times sweeter than sugar, aspartame (Equal) is 200 times sweeter than sugar and sucralose (splenda) is 600 times sweeter than sugar. Such sweeteners can only increase our sweet tooth and increase our taste of sweet things. If you can never get rid of your sugar cravings, any healthy eating plan will be difficult because you will constantly be craving “sweet”. Artificial sweeteners have also shown to promote the same blood sugar fluctuations as regular sugar, which, again will bring on “sugar lows” which will increase appetite and cravings. This is not to say, that something sweet now and again is not ok, but it is those people who can not control their sugar cravings that are being sabotaged by these artificial sweeteners.

What are some alternatives to sweeteners?

Giving up sugar and artificial sweeteners may be difficult, especially if you are accustomed to everything having such a sweet taste. A wonderful alternative to sugar and artificial sweeteners is an herb called Stevia. Stevia is an extraordinarily sweet herb, 200-300 times sweeter than sugar. Stevia is almost calorie-free, so it is perfect for people who are watching their weight. Unlike sugar, it does not trigger a rise in blood sugar so you will not get a sudden burst of energy followed by fatigue and a need for another “fix”. It increases energy and aids digestion by stimulating the pancreas. Stevia also presents great advantages over saccharine and other artificial sweeteners in that it is not toxic. Stevia is a plant that is found in nature and is not man-made in a laboratory. Stevia can be found at almost all health food stores such as Whole Foods, and is listed under the “supplement” section. Stevia can be used exactly like sugar and artificial sweeteners to sweeten drinks and it can even be used in baking.

Read enough? Go right to the solution?

If weight loss or staying away from sweets has always been a problem for you, take notice of how much artificial sweetener you have been ingesting. That just may be the culprit. Make a resolution this year to give up the “fake” stuff and stick to natural alternatives like Stevia. You will not only be helping your weight loss efforts but you will also be benefiting your health.

If you or someone you know is addicted to sweet drinks such as sodas or beverages sweetened with sugar or artificial sweeteners, try this “Tea Juice” and you will see that weaning yourself off sugar or sweeteners will be much easier.

Tea Juice

5-6 bags of any caffeine free herbal tea of your choice (green tea, peach tea, berry tea, orange zinger, lemon, etc.)
3 quarts water
Stevia powder or liquid to taste
Boil tea bags in a large pot. Add 1-2 full teaspoons of stevia while still hot. (You may add more or less, based on your desired sweetness) Let tea cool and then transfer to the refrigerator in Ice Tea pitchers or individual size water bottles.

This drink is a great replacement to Diet Coke or Diet Snapple.

Eat Your Favorite Foods & Still lose weight like crazy

Let me get right to the point:

If you thought you had to give up your favorite foods in order to shed unwanted bodyfat, then this will be one of the most important letters you ever read.

Two "former fatties" developed a System of eating that allows you to eat whatever
you like every other day and still lose all-the-weight you want.

No pills. No guilt. Just a dietplan for the REAL WORLD, developed by real people.

Most Dietplans Are Too Hard

Most of what you've read about how to shed bodyweight is a lie.

Some 'experts' expect you to believe they eat chicken and broccoli every night for
dinner and rarely if ever cheat.

Right. And I'm the Dalai Lama!

Just as bad, these plans are too difficult for anyone to follow for more than a few weeks.

So when folks like you discover they can eat their favorite foods every single week and still shed the weight you should see the look on their faces.

They can't believe it.

Some think they have to take some "superpill" to succeed. Not true!

Others think they will have to spend hours a day in the gym killing themselves. No way!

Here's the truth:

Jon and Jan were both obese. Over the past four years, they perfected a System that shows you how they went from obese to "cover model" fit and still eat their favorite foods.

Not "once a week" either -- they INSIST you eat yummy food frequently and without guilt or worry.

>>> Even better, they never count a single calorie!

See for yourself


Here's the facts: there is NO SUCH THING as a perfect dietplan.

But thousands of people make billions of bucks off of selling the idea that there is only ONE way to eat in order to get lean.

Even worse: these people create dietplans so ridiculously strict that even fitness pros like Jon and Jan can't follow them!

They had to create a plan anyone could follow. Women, men, and even kids.

You should see these pictures! They used Jan's six-year-old daughter Kari to prove a point -- This is so simple a even CHILD can do it!

And you should see their clients...the few who know about this System...

They get to eat pizza, burgers, ice cream, and more...and still lose-the-weight!

This is not a pill or a scam...this is science applied to the real world.

The science: you take advantage of the fact your body prefers a change of pace and can respond by burning ugly fat.

The real world: no one is going to eat salad and tuna every day for the rest of their life in order to shed bodyfat and feel good again.

Simple, right? Common sense! You absolutely MUST HAVE a dietplan you can live with for life.

And that's what this is.
