Weight Loss

Some of you are finding that despite proper diet and exercise you simply cannot lose the extra weight. Our research has shown that 4 key factors contribute to this and that when you treat them the weight will often begin to disappear. These include:

1. Hypothyroidism. If you have fatigue, weight gain, cold intolerance or achiness, you deserve a therapeutic trial of thyroid hormone—even if your blood tests are normal.

2. Nutritional Deficiencies. When you are deficient in vitamins or minerals your body will crave more food than you need and your metabolism will be sluggish. In addition, deficiency of a nutrient called Acetyl-L-Carnitine makes it almost impossible to lose weight. I recommend 1000 mg/day along with an excellent multivitamin. We recommend our Energy Revitalization System—Berry or Citrus.

3. Poor Sleep. The expression "getting your beauty sleep" actually has a basis in fact, and inadequate sleep causes weight gain and premature aging. 8-9 hours of sleep a night is optimal. Our natural Revitalizing Sleep Formula (30 ct or 90 ct) is an excellent place to start!

4. Yeast Overgrowth. Clinical experience has shown that Candida overgrowth contributes powerfully to both sugar cravings and weight gain. Common problems caused by yeast overgrowth include chronic sinusitis and/or spastic colon. If you have either of these, you probably have fungal overgrowth. A great natural anti-fungal is Anti-Yeast.

How to diagnose and treat the above problems are discussed at length in my book From Fatigued to Fantastic!. It is no longer necessary to be on extreme, unsustainable or unhealthy diets to lose weight and keep it off. The recommendations above will not just help you stay trim, but they will leave you healthy and full of vitality as well!
