About this listen

We Have Been Deceived by The Experts

In 1977, American Nutritionist introduced dietary guidelines that still influence medical professionals and individuals around the world. These guidelines were quickly adopted by many countries. In the 45 years since they were introduced, there has been a steady and alarming increase in obesity, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s, kidney disease, liver damage, arthritis, and cancer.

The same factors which result in significant and sustained weight loss, also result in better health, increased longevity, and reduced risk of disease.


Have you ever lost weight only to regain it and then some?

This is not your fault. Our gut microbiome remembers being overweight and extracts MORE calories from our food than it would have if we had never been overweight. This makes it much more difficult to keep the weight off. This effect can last for years after returning to a normal weight or BMI.

Has your doctor told you insulin is required for your diabetes and your condition will only get worse with age?

According to Dr. Jason Fung, a kidney specialist, most Type 2 diabetes can be reversed in less than 7 months. I did it in less than 5 months and you can too.

Do you use artificial sweeteners?

Research has shown that people who have never used artificial sweeteners have a 50/50 chance of developing glucose intolerance after just one week of using them.

Don’t despair! Help is on the way! And the solutions are easier than you might think.

This book provides the keys to success through knowledge.

It is surprisingly easy to reverse metabolic illness and obesity. All we need is the correct information.


No diet works for everyone, and we are beginning to understand why.

  • Although there are average or “normal” responses to foods, two individuals might have exact opposite insulin responses to the exact same food and quantity of food.
  • Our gut bacteria determine how we respond to food and our microbiome has a memory. People who have been obese extract significantly more calories from food than people who have never been overweight. This effect can last for years after significant weight loss, thus making it difficult to sustain the weight loss.
  • To be effective, a diet must be personalized with respect to insulin response.


Did you know?

  • Normal cells create energy by oxidation — burning proteins in the presence of oxygen.
  • Cancer cells create energy by fermentation of glucose (sugar) and glutamine (the most abundant amino acid in our bodies). Cancer cells can be killed by starving the body of fermentable sources of energy.
  • Our body has a recycling process called Autophagy. This process is activated by intermittent fasting and to a greater degree by prolonged fasting. Autophagy is capable of restoring the body to its former state of health. Fasting is free and has no detrimental side-effects when done properly.
  • Mild exercise, while fasting, dramatically increases and enhances all the beneficial effects of fasting and burns 20% to 30% more calories.
  • Physical exercise is 9 times more beneficial for brain health than mental exercises.
  • We only burn body fat when we are fasting. We store body fat when we are eating. A diet will either maintain our weight or increase it.
