Announcing Dr. Ellis’s Weight Loss Clinic

Discovered: A Powerful Method to Lose Weight Fast and Keep Your Muscle

Dr. Gregory Ellis, noted author of several cutting edge weight loss books, has opened a weight loss clinic designed to jump start your weight loss. The program creates rapid and safe weight loss.

* Men lose 4-7 pounds per week and women 3-5
* The program that Dr. Ellis is using was developed more than 20 years ago
* It’s based on research first conducted at Harvard

This research looked at the effects of a dietary weight loss regimen that was called a Protein Sparing Modified Fast.

By providing just the right amount of protein of the highest quality, weight loss consists mostly of body fat while precious muscle tissue is spared.

Both carbohydrates and fats are restricted which reduces the release of insulin from the pancreas. Insulin is a fat storage hormone and converts dietary carbohydrates into body fat.

* Helps to maintain muscle mass
* Promotes fat loss
* Tones and revitalizes skin
* Supports cellulite reduction
* Promotes vitality and energy
* Naturally suppresses your appetite
* Provides a rest for an overworked pancreas

The program uses meal replacement products including bars, soups, and powders. These can be made into delicious puddings and drinks. There’s a large variety of more than 45 gourmet foods for you to choose from each day.

For dinner you’ll consume real food such as your choice of beef, chicken, pork, or any other protein-based food. You can also eat several servings of vegetables each day and you are allowed unlimited consumption of lettuce.

The most important aspects of the program are:

* We take you by the hand, the program tells you exactly what to eat and when
* Personal coaching by Dr. Ellis and his coaches
* The foods are provided only to professional healthcare providers such as Dr. Ellis
* Dr. Ellis has an online body composition and body analysis system that he developed and you can only get this when you become a member of his clinic
* Dr. Ellis will show you your ideal weight
* You’ll learn about how to control your weight
* You’ll rapidly lose your belly fat

Why Should You Follow Dr. Ellis’s Program?

We now know that the body converts carbohydrates to body fat. Most programs today still follow the unworkable low-fat eating program which means it’s high in carbohydrates. This is bad for many reasons including the loss of muscle tissue, hunger, and rapid regain of lost weight.

Another misconception today is that there are “good” carbs and “bad” carbs. This idea is total nonsense and several of the leading weight loss plans such as Nutri-System and The South Beach Diet are based on “good” carbs and “bad” carbs.

Because the majority of medical and scientific experts still believe that fat is bad and carbs are good, people consume a large amount of sugar every day. Fruits and whole grain bread products turn to sugar in the blood and are just as bad for your health as sugar, candy, and other “junk” foods.

When you consume just 4 grams of carbs that’s like eating a teaspoon of sugar!

The program is divided into four phases and phase 1 is used until you get close to your ideal weight.

The manufacturer of the gourmet foods does not allow online sales so you’ll have to follow the program as a member of Dr. Ellis’s Weight Loss Clinic.

The costs include a one-time administration fee of $195.00 plus the cost of the food products and the supplements.

Call 610-459-0200 for more information about the program. This consultation will cost $50.00 and is payable by MC or Visa. The fee will be deducted from the admin fee when you join the program.

Knowledge About Herbs Has Increased Exponentially

The Use of Herbs is Huge in Alternative Medicine

One of the earliest publications about plants for healing dates to 2800 B.C.

This document was written by a Chinese medical practitioner and lists 366 plant drugs used to heal various ailments.

Early Chinese medical philosophy argues that disease develops when there’s a disturbance of the balance between yin and yang, the two polar opposites that make up the core theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Medicinal plants:

• help to increase resistance in the body
• eliminate disease-causing agents
• restore balance between yin and yang

Centuries of Observation, Practice, and Experience are the Framework of Traditional Chinese Medicine

Medicinal plants were classified according to their properties and actions. These properties guide the practitioner in his use of them.

Each medicinal plant is classified according to four properties:

• cold
• hot
• cool
• warm

The use of medicinal plants and acupuncture are the foundation of the treatment for health problems in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Interestingly, acupuncturists and plant prescribers in Chinese medicine don’t talk about specific diseases as do doctors who practice western medicine.

The Practice of Using Medicinal Plants in the United States was Based on What Primitive People Learned

Samuel Thomson (1769-1843) devised a set of plant recipes used and known to native U. S. Indians. He patented his system and sold the rights to would-be-practitioners.

“Thomasonianism” was used by one to five million people in the United States in the mid- to late-1800’s.

Later in that century, the study of plants became more “scientific” with the development of “Eclecticism” and the opening of the Cincinnatti Eclectic Medical Institute. This remained open until 1935.

Both of the above practices were theoretically based on vitalism, described as:

• adhererance to the idea that the body has a “life force”
• plant users agreed that internal problems are represented by visible symptoms
• the theory urged the physician to rely on his sense-perception in prescribing the plant
• this philosophic position was and is in direct contrast to the vision of conventional medicine

Today, Unlike the United States, Europe — Particularly Germany and Italy — Aggressively Study Plant Medicine

The German Commission E Monographs were first released in 1998. In Germany, 600-700 different plant medicines are sold, singly and in combination. About 70% of physicians prescribe medicinal plants, whereas in the U. S., physicians know little about them and rely on pharmaceutical drugs.

It was in 1976 that the Federal Republic of Germany defined plant remedies in the same manner as other drugs — they categorized herbs for:

• preventing disease
• alleviating suffering
• correcting physical injury
• for symptoms of illness
• to influence the nature, state, or function of the body

One of the Most Fascinating Outcomes of the Study of Herbs is the Understanding of “Adaptogenic” Plants

Most herbs are used for specific ailments, but the most powerful use of herbs is for general purposes. For example, Echinacea (purple coneflower) is used as a general immune system builder.

Russian research has contributed to much of what we know about “adaptogens,” which have the capacity to increase the whole body’s resistance to germs, stress, cold, and mental challenges.

The characteristics of an adaptogenic herb are:

• it must be absolutely harmless
• it must act broadly in the body
• it must increase resistance
• its action must be non-specific
• its action must be normalizing and stabilizing

So, as you experiment with herbs, you’ll receive the best results by using adaptogenic herbs, whose actions have been charted only since World War II.

Carbohydrates are the Cause of Most Diseases via Glycation

It Turns Out that Many Degenerative Diseases Are Caused by Carbohydrates: Are You Surprised?

Since 1987 and the release of the Glycation Theory of Aging, there are now many published papers that describe the damaging effects of glucose-derived glycation end products:

• diabetes
• obesity
• heart disease
• even osteoporosis
• neurological diseases including bi-polar disorder, alzheimer’s disease, and parkinsons and many others
• aging skin and all body proteins

Glycated Proteins: 5,000 Plus Medical Research Papers Published Since 1984

I Rarely Find Anyone, Lay Public, Medical Doctor, or Scientist Who Has Ever Heard About Glycated Proteins

Why? Because everyone is still stuck on fat and cholesterol.

My mission: to teach you about glycated proteins that arise when a glucose molecule attaches itself to your body’s structural proteins including your DNA and RNA.

Forget cholesterol, that’s old news.

Since the collective wisdom and thinking process ended when cholesterol got blamed for heart disease and other diseases, looking at other possibilities stopped.

Even though all these papers have been published, our policy wonks fail to look at the data.

Change Your Metabolism and Lose Weight Fast Now

I love the rags at the supermarket checkout lines — all the weight loss plans splashed all over the covers of the magazines.

Promises that if you just eat this special food, or follow this exercise program, that your metabolism will shoot through the roof and those pounds will finally melt off your body like never before.

What Are the Real Facts About Your Metabolism?

• metabolism is like gravity — it’s part of Mother Nature’s Laws
• it’s not modifiable
• sure, if you gain or lose weight then metabolism will increase of decrease respectively
• the change won’t be significant

How about the idea that you don’t lose weight because you have a slow metabolism? More hogwash. Your metabolic rate (how fast your body burns calories) is dictated by your body size.

There are two main parts to your metabolic rate: resting metabolism and activity metabolism. For most people the resting metabolism is 70% of their total daily calorie burn.

The one you can change is the activity part — that’s where moving your body comes into play.

Add Muscle and Increase Your Metabolism

Adding a good bit of muscle is tough to do, but no matter, muscle at rest burns few calories; in fact, a pound of muscle at rest burns 5 calories in 24-hours and a pound of fat burns 2 calories per 24-hours. Forget about this.

Amazingly, most people have heard about and believe this myth — anothet major reason for weight loss failure.

Why Weight Loss Remains So Confusing

Do We Question So-Called “Authority” — or Do We Just Let It Go?

The nightly news reported on the new weight loss study released yesterday in the New England Journal of Medicine.

The study was the brainchild of two of the pre-eminent medical institutions in the world: the Harvard School of Public Health and the Pennington Biomedical Research Center at LSU.

Seventeen names represented the authorship of the article. The purpose of this multi-year study was to establish if diet composition — how much protein, fat, or carbohydrate in the diet — would impact weight loss.

The researchers validated the well-known fact that calories dictate what happens to body weight over the long haul. Although there were four different dietary combos of the three major food types, the results showed that diet composition was not a factor in weight loss.

There were problems with this study:

• participants lost weight during the first six months and then began to regain weight during the next eighteen months
• this result parallels 50 years of weight loss research showing that people never lose weight at the pre-trial predicted rate
• people do not stick to a weight loss regimen in which calories are reduced — they can’t and I’ll tell you why in a moment

The researchers concluded “that diets that are successful in causing weight loss can emphasize a range of fat, protein, and carbohydrate compositions.” It’s important to emphasize that the range of carbohydrate intake was between 35%-65% of the day’s total calories.

Few People Have the Experience and Backgroud to Make the Following Analysis

Here’s the important point that these researchers do not know: for carbohydrates to contribute to weight loss, the daily composition of the carb intake must be at or lower than 25% of the day’s total calorie intake.

What’s the real result of this study?

Just more confusion.

So, the breaking news covered by all the media is now that diet composition does not matter in weight loss — a totally false conclusion!

We just fall deeper into the quicksand. Here’s what else our research elite just don’t get:

• the reason subjects started regaining is because they could no longer stick to a calorie-reduced diet
• Why? Because they were hungry
• the body rapidly converts carbs to body fat and this process is brisk when carb intake exceeds 25% of calories
• the blood then clears of fuel and ravenous hunger sets in
• the body wants to go back to its original weight
• at 24 months, the average loss among the 4 groups was about 8 pounds — that stinks — 2 years for a lousy 8 pounds
• and, I’ll bet in another year that most will be back to where they started or heavier

We’ve seen the same problem with researchers who study a low carb diet. They simply have no practical experience in it and follow the fatally flawed Atkins’s version. In this study, they did not follow a true low-carb diet, again, because they have no practical experience in knowing what that actually is.

Yet, these researchers, coming from trusted centers, will have the last say and the country will now believe that diet composition makes no impact on weight loss.

Yes, calories do count, but if one cannot stay on a calorie-reduced diet, he has no chance of succeeding in weight loss and certainly if he did lose some, in maintaining the loss. To succeed in calorie-reduced diets, carbs must be dropped to at least 25% of total daily calorie intake, and better yet to below 15%.
