Bread.  Americans have had a love affair with it, at least from the time I entered this world.  My mom would make me grilled cheese sandwiches, I was a massive fan of PB&J, and most days my lunchbox contained a sandwich. 

Know this.  I was carrying my lunchbox to school in 1969!  The world has changed!  The air has changed, communication has changed, and BREAD HAS CHANGED!

Let’s take it a step further.  The WHEAT has changed!  And in terms of human health and nutrition, not for the better.

It’s hard to answer the question, “can I eat bread during my fat loss journey” with a simple yes or no, but the easiest most accurate answer would have to fall closer to “No” than “Yes.”

WHITE BREAD

My 1969 PB&J sandwiches were made on white bread.  We didn’t know of any other.  Wonder Bread to be precise.  It was a staple, not only in my life, but in virtually every American household.

My Aunt Jeannie lived near my elementary school.  A couple of days a week I’d go to her house to eat lunch wi...

We love it, but we fear it.  After a long season of “sheltering” and “distancing,” it seems a great many people are preparing to celebrate the feast with people sitting together at the same table sharing turkey, stuffing, and pie. 

The indulgence, the bonding, the laughter, the connection, and the joy of humans stuffing their faces with foods that spike endorphins makes the entire experience a great one . . . unless the one uncle who has to argue about politics starts doing his thing, or the aunt who chews too loud happens to grab the chair next to you.  If that happens, stuff your uncle’s mouth with mashed potatoes, chew louder than Aunt Llama could ever hope to, and go back to the celebration.

OK, so the agitating Uncle and Loud-Chewing Aunt are annoyances, but where does the fear come in?  

There is a fear associated with gluttonous celebration. 

The Fear of Weight Gain. 

Nobody thinks of Thanksgiving as a time to rev up metabolism, kick fat burning into high gear, and power up your body...

“We’ve seen the best in people, and we’ve seen the worst.” 

Over the course of centuries, that quote has been uttered by generals, politicians, philosophers, and leaders in times of crisis.  Societal disruption (such as a pandemic) allows for people to reveal themselves at their deepest levels.

Far be it from me to judge who’s good and who may be on the naughty list, but there are extremes being played out daily in the residual chaos spilling forth from 2020. 

We can bestow endless praise upon health care workers and find their tireless hearts representative of the good mankind is capable of.  On the other end of the spectrum are those who capitalize on the weak and vulnerable to pursue personal profit and gain.

What prompted me to write this now? 

As a long-time consumer advocate, I keep an eye on FTC claims, frauds related to health, fitness, and weight loss, and scams that perpetuate the awareness and bank accounts of those in need.  As I scanned a sampling of recent claims, actions, a...

REMARKABLE CHANGES will take place in your body, brain, energy, and life over the 8 Weeks of the Groundbreaking “Younger, Better, Stronger” Program.  And, if you are ready to move beyond your own inner resistance, your own blockages and doubts, and step into a future of youthfulness, you can participate in this 8-week odyssey of dramatic change.  For FREE.

I know, I know, this sounds so infomercially, but stay with me.  I promise you something special.  Let's start with some very low-pressure what ifs.

What if it were possible to:

• Reverse the annoying, heartbreaking, and debilitating symptoms of aging.
• Alleviate joint pain, physical compromise, and reverse dis-ease
• Restore the energy you remember from your teenage years
• Clear up brain fog, restore vitality, libido, and cognition, and master the innate power of healing

I understand it sounds fantastical. 

It is. 

Fantastical . . . and true!  Let's, right now, go on a very short journey back in time, and then I'll invite you...

BioGenesis:
The Human Phenomenon of Getting Younger

A Thrilling Report Revealing That “Un-Aging” is Possible

by Phil Kaplan

After years of research, study, and application, we’re seeing clear evidence of “re-genesis,” of human bodies generating new biologically younger cells.

Stop. 

Think about what I just said. 

You can get younger. 

That, my friend, is powerful.

At the end of this article I'll invite you to join me as my guest in a webinar appropriately titled, "Younger."  It's presented LIVE, Monday, April 25, at 7 PM Eastern.  If you have any interest in rediscovering your best, you don't want to miss this event.  You can use the link at the bottom, or, you can just REGISTER FOR FREE NOW.

Let’s now begin with clarity so nothing I’m about to share seems like hype or exaggeration.  From the days of Ponce DeLeon’s exploration seeking the Fountain of Youth, men and women have fantasized of finding an elixir, a remedy for “getting old.”

Consider this . . .

If the body y...

I’m very familiar with the carbs, good or bad debate.  I’m well versed in Paleo, Plant-Based, Keto, and Vegan.  I’ve debated nutritionists, physicians, even Dr. Atkins (live on radio) about the failings of globalizing either of the polar extremes. 

To indict carbs as villainous would be the equivalent of calling air bad for you.

Let me make my point. 

The atmosphere contains air.  Air contains oxygen.  Oxygen is vital for survival, let alone health.  We, thankfully, can obtain oxygen from the atmosphere, in great part, because of the miracle of photosynthesis.

Stay with me.

Food contains carbohydrates.  Foods we categorize as “carbs” can contain glucose molecules which we need for metabolic function.  Those beneficial glucose molecules are available to us, in great part, because of the miracle of photosynthesis.

Already I know those that are polarized or prone to argue will insist we do not need glucose, that our bodies can use ketones and amino acids to “run” metabolism, but if ...

Excessive ultraviolet radiation, smoking, and excessive alcohol consumption are the obvious ones, so we begin by assuming that you’re already aware they contribute to premature aging.  The more subtle mistakes are those most people dismiss as “not optimal” but fail to see as direct contributors to aging.

It isn’t “aging” that we’re uncomfortable with, but rather the unsightly, disempowering, and health risk symptoms of degeneration that we want to right against.  You’ll be thrilled to know, after we get to the list of mistakes, I’ll invite you a webinar where you’ll learn to restore youth.  For real.

With that as an introduction, these are the WORST mistakes that accelerate aging.

1. Ignoring Chemical Compounds In Your Skin Cream

Moisturizing creams, including those with names that promise age-protection, make-up, hair products, deodorants, shave gels, and skin cleansers, are notorious for relying upon chemical compounds as ingredients that increase shelf-life, texture, skin-feel, ...

The 8 Challenges of Fat Loss

I write this on the heels of the release of my 7-Day Metabolic Reboot, a one-week-long program that has demonstrated the most remarkable results I’ve ever seen.

While I’ve always maintained that anyone can find betterment, and that those who fail do so either because they’re misinformed or applying a flawed approach, I’ve come to absolutely without any question evidence, with this 7 day program, that weight loss resistance is fixable.  The greatest blockage is . . . the spreading of false belief.

I’m going to invite you to experience the 7-Day Reboot for the same absurdly affordable price I presented to my inner circle (ALIVE Connection Members) but only for a short time.  I want you to overcome any false beliefs, to shut down any blockages or stone-wall excuses, and really see how “fixable” your present condition is.

Before I make the offer (yes, of course you can just scroll down), I want to share the 8 “thoughts” that lead people to mistakenly believ...

 You’ve heard that “Keto” is the solution to all of your weight loss woes?  Fat will leave you, abs will arrive, and the whole world will be a better brighter place? 

Then you need to create “ketones.”

In order to get into a state where significant ketone bodies are being produced and are actively traveling in your bloodstream, you have some work to do. 

The first step, if your only goal is to “get into ketosis” is a simple one. 

Take a forkful of lamb or a juicy pork chop.  Wrap it in cheese.  Then put butter all over it and wrap it in a nice hunk of fried bacon and a rich green leaf of romaine lettuce.  Dip it in coconut oil, eat it, then do it again.  A few hours later, repeat.

For those reading this who are already foaming at the mouth, not from the meal fantasy I just outlined but because they’re reactively jacked to defend their commitment to keto, please don’t mistake my absurd example as a representation of what I honestly believe a ketogenic dieter would be directed to do...

Liz sat across from me in a consultation and told me every reason she couldn't lose weight.  She had many.  They had to do with her cravings, her mother, her kids, her doctor, moving to Florida, her mid-life career change, her divorce . . . and if I let her keep going the consultation would have lasted a week and a half.

Nobody ever told Liz she had R.E.M.A.S.S.  It's so common I can guarantee you know at least a dozen people with the condition.  A doctor won't diagnose R.E.M.A.S.S. because it's a term I and several physicians I work with coined.  The more descriptive title for the condition would be Weight Loss Resistance.

I'm going to share some explanations and bullet points so you can begin to assess if your condition is something other than you've convinced yourself it is.  If we look at the big picture, Liz wasn't "wrong" in blaming all of the variables in her life, as they contributed to her stress, but more than anything else she needed a mindset shift.  The real problem is a...
