The Missing Link to Stubborn Fat Loss

Many people suffer from the frustration of stubborn fat loss. They go to the gym religiously, they eat balanced meals, they think positive and use daily affirmations, yet the fat continues to cling defiantly. Why?

The answer is toxicity.

I have been in the field of nutrition and holistic health for 12 years and just to show there’s always more to discover, it wasn't until last November I learned something that revolutionized my understanding of fat loss: Our body uses fat to protect us from environmental toxins that damage our body on the cellular level.

Obesity is at epidemic proportions despite greater public understanding of health and nutrition and it's no coincidence that there are more harmful substances in our environment than ever before.

From insecticides on our fruits and vegetables, which become concentrated in our meats along with BGH, antibiotics and more, to chlorine and worse in our drinking and bathing water, to household toxins like formaldehyde in new carpets and processed wood furniture, to out of control vehicle emissions, prescription drugs, alcohol, sugar, coffee, trans-fats, second-hand cigarette smoke, junk cosmetics and much more, our bodies are under a constant siege that is diminishing our health, vitality and longevity.

Aging and degeneration have been linked to free radical damage caused by these elements. More people than ever know about taking anti-oxidants to slow down this process. Recent findings in health research reveal that our body encases these contaminants with fat and water molecules to shield our vital organs from their slow yet cumulative devastation.

While there are many things we can do to reduce our exposure to environmental toxins, it's virtually impossible to eliminate such exposure altogether. Fortunately our bodies are designed for resilience when cared for properly. Just like brushing our teeth, bathing our bodies, changing air and oil filters and keeping the household plumbing in good order, it is even more necessary to cleanse internally.

While it's true that developing a lifestyle of eating less and exercising more is the best known way to keep off unwanted pounds, that lifestyle takes time to develop for those not already practicing it. Nutritional Cleansing is a way to quickly and naturally diminish unhealthy cravings and shed unwanted pounds. By cleansing your body of impurities you'll reset your metabolic and appetite-regulating systems. As these impurities are eliminated the fat that protected your body from them are eliminated as well.

However, it is as important for people with already healthy lifestyles to remove impurities on the cellular level that cause other problems if left unchecked. Just because one is lean doesn't mean they're "clean".

There are many cleansing programs out there, but most of them flush out essential nutrients too, leaving the body depleted which can lead to dangerous conditions as well. This is why it's necessary to have the support of a professional and/or a results-proven system that guides you through the many nuances that can arise and scare people off.

In my 12 years of practice I have never known a more complete and effective system than the Isagenix 30-day Program which replenishes the body with 242 balanced, organic nutrients while cleansing harmful impurities.

Once someone has reached their desired result, Isagenix provides a balanced maintenance program of whole foods that are masterfully formulated for immediate and complete absorbtion, taking all the guess work and time out of getting the full spectrum of nutrition the body needs every day.

Your Food Supply has Changed!

You’re Eating Fruits with No Vitamins… Vegetables with No Minerals…

We first began to know that there was a problem back in 1936.

A group of doctors introduced Document No. 264 to the floor of the United States Senate. It was a dire warning that the mineral content of the soil was eroding. Vegetables were losing their power and people were at risk.

Unfortunately congress did nothing.

Today, we’re feeling the effects…

For instance, just look at the US Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) nutritional values for fruits and vegetables today compared to 1975.

Take a look at the loss of Vitamins and Minerals Since 1975:

Apples and Vitamin A are down 41%

Sweet Peppers and Vitamin C are down 31%

Watercress, Iron is down 88%

Broccoli, Calcium and Vitamin A are down 50%

Cauliflower and Vitamin C are down 45%

Vitamin B1 is down 48%

Vitmain B2 is down 47%

Collards Greens, and Vitamin A are down 45%

Potassium is down 60%

Magnesium is down 85%

According to the USDA’s own numbers, the vitamin and mineral content has dramatically plummeted – in just 30 years! Notice minerals like iron and magnesium have dropped by more than 80 percent. This is from commercial farming technology and powerful fertilizers that practically sterilize the soil – leaving it with little to no mineral content.

If the soil doesn’t have minerals, there’s no way for vegetables to absorb them.

This is bad news for your health…
Magnesium regulates over 300 body functions – every day!
Magnesium is so critical. Low levels in your blood can lead to diabetes, heart disease, heart attack and high blood pressure.

But the story doesn’t end there.

A report from the University of Texas in Austin also tracked the decline of nutrients in produce. They reported findings at a recent meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in St. Louis.

They found significant drops in a wide range of produce across the board, including a 20 percent decline in vitamin C and a 38 percent plunge in vitamin B2.

What’s worse, fruit and vegetable growers create “hybrids” for the sake of making their produce “look better.” They actually create new versions of all your favorites so they have more water, more sugar, more pith (The indigestible support tissue like the white fibrous netting around an orange section) and less of everything else.

Growers call this the “dilution effect.” For them, more water and more pith helps their produce ship well, look good and weigh a lot. But it virtually wipes out their vitamin and mineral content.

The plunge in nutrients in your produce over the last 30 to 50 years is bad enough. But it rapidly getting much worse. Genetic hybrids are pushing nutrient values even lower.

A popular broccoli hybrid called “Marathon” is an alarming example:

By the USDA’s own admission, levels of calcium and magnesium in the Marathon hybrid are 35 percent lower than other hybrids. The hybrids themselves are 50 percent lower in calcium and magnesium than “normal” broccoli -and “normal” broccoli has less than half the calcium and magnesium than broccoli did in 1975!

In less than 50 years, the mineral, vitamin and antioxidant value native to fruits and vegetables has been virtually “destroyed” – robbing you of the natural vital nutrients you need every day.

A lot of people are also over-eating because they can no longer get the nurtients they need from the food supply. Basically, the body needs much more food in order to get what it needs to stay nourished. This causes weight gain and obesity which creates a whole other plethora of serious health challenges.

The great news is that we have an opportunity to do something for ourselves -and for each other!

The REAL "Pyramid Scheme"

Over the decades I've been around the network marketing industry, I've heard people ask, "Is this a Pyramid Scheme"?

This never ceases to amuse me, because 99% of these people are ALREADY LIVING IN A "PYRAMID SCHEME".

Basically, in a Pyramid Scheme, one or a few people on the "top" benefit from the work of everyone "below" them. And no matter how hard or intelligent these "bottom-dwellers" work, they can never attain the "top" position -or at best, can only do so by making it their life's agenda.

Does this sound eerily familiar to what you're already doing for work?
Do you have a boss?
If you do, does your work help their business prosper?
Is the possibility of your taking over their position conditional on their retirement, or other means of resignation (including death)?

Do you work for a corporation?
If so, what would it take for you to become the CEO -or a board member?
Do you get to make the decisions on the policies at your work?

There's a legal definition of a "Pyramid Scheme", and you can read all about it here:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramid_schemes

As I've just illustrated, the legal definition of a Pyramid Scheme isn't the only kind of Pyramid Scheme to watch out for.

Regarding Network Marketing, or Multi-Level Marketing (MLM), which are LEGAL business formats, it comes down to whether you connect with the products, the company vision, and have a vision for yourself where you're free to do the things you want in your life *when* you want to do them -and if you're willing to unplug from the "Matrix" -that system that is only interested in you making an elite few rich, with little or no prospect for you to ever have the kind of freedoms they enjoy.

Are you willing to "unplug", and reprogram yourself through conscious business systems that empower you to live the life of your dreams while helping others do the same -and collectively transforming the world by democratizing wealth?
