There’s one simple reason that most “detoxes” fail, and if you tried dozens and never gotten any real results, this is probably why… They cut out the #1 fat-burning food that SHOULD be the basis of your entire “detox”... Dietary fat. Or what I like to call Energy Accelerators… Because these foods literally fill you up so you DON’T overeat… They help transform you from being a carb-burner to being a fat-burner… And most important, you NEVER feel deprived because you’re eating actual foods that fill you up, so you aren’t snacking every couple of yours because someone told you that “keeps your metabolism burning”. It doesn’t. In fact, eating every couple of hours, no matter how healthy the food is, just forces your body to work overtime digesting everything and you get HUGE insulin spikes that put you in fat-storing mode instead of fat-burning mode… Which is where you want to be, right? So if you see a “detox” or “weekend cleanse” that’s all about drinking veggie ju...

By Elizabeth (Liz) Swann Miller A common mistake made by many dieters is not taking into account what they drink. The truth is the fluids you consume can have just as big an impact on your waistline – and your health – as the foods you eat. Of course, that means for dieters who are serious about losing weight - no more soda and no more alcohol … But what about green tea and black tea? Are these teas good for you – or could they actually cause you to gain unwanted weight? The answer may surprise you. You see, most people think green tea, in particular, can help you lose weight not gain it … But that may not necessarily be the case. Several studies have shown that green tea does not affect weight loss. For example, a study published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition in 2009 found that green tea extract did not affect the resting metabolic rate of 12 normal weight men. Meanwhile, a Cochrane Review of green tea research found that green tea l...

The Danger Of  Toxins In Our Body In this post, I am going to be sharing with you about one shocking finding as revealed in a prestigious medical journal, Lancet which recently proved that environmental toxins do indeed make people fat and can cause people to get diabetes [ref: Jones OA, et al (2008). Environmental pollution and diabetes: a neglected association. Lancet. 26;371(9609):287-8.]. The studies explained that, there inside our body, these environmental toxins unleash cascade of dangerous events that can disrupt our body ability to effectively balance the blood sugar level and metabolism. These environmental toxins also destroy the delicate balance of bacteria that present in our gut. These toxins also influence the genes within our fat tissue which allow them to create new fat cells. As this process goes on, the new fat cells then fill up with more fat and toxins leading directly to a greater risk of causing us to getting diabetes type 2. These toxins also pose ...
