Nutrition Month Tip: Eat Less Omega-6 for More Omega-3

The need to increase omega-3 fats—alpha-linoleic acid (ALA) found in flax seed and walnuts; eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexanoic acid (DHA) found in fish—has sprung to the forefront of any healthy diet plan. These beneficial fats are profoundly beneficial for our hearts, our brains, our skin, and even our joints. Yes, these fats are vital to our health.

Switching to a diet lower in omega-6 oils may improve omega-3 status, a new study suggests.

The dietary shifts that took place in the 20th century because of developments in food processing to animal feeding-operations not only displaced important aspects of a sustainable food-system, but also displaced these essential fatty acids in our diets. A common misconception is that nutritional quality of foods decreased, alongside reduced intake of omega-3s. While it would seem that the Western diet is replete in everything but omega-3 fats, this is not the case.
Findings published recently in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition are that North Americans are  not consuming less omega-3 fatty acids; from 1909 to 1999, omega-3 consumption increased!
So, then, what is the problem?
While dietary intake of omega-3s has seen a modest increase, consumption of its counterpart, omega-6, has skyrocketed.
According to the study, over the last century, consumption of omega-6 fatty acids, particularly linoleic acid (LA) from soy and corn oil, increased more than a thousand fold! This is the likely reason why most of us have a reduced concentration of omega-3 fatty acids in our bodies.
Why? Omega-3s and omega-6s are both essential for our health, but unfortunately they compete with one another for access to enzymes and entrance into tissues.
Too much of omega-6 leads to too little of omega-3.
When consumption of dietary omega-6 increased disproportionally to dietary omega-3, with it came a jump in chronic health problems. This is thought to be because omega-6 oils are precursors to pro-inflammatory compounds where as omega-3s are less so.
So, our last tip for National Nutrition Month is: make omega-3 fats a focus of your diet. If your diet is too rich in omega-6, then the omega-3s simply can’t contend. Take control of your dietary fats by following these simple, practical, suggestions:

• Switch oils! Avoid vegetable cooking oils that are high in omega-6. Use olive oil instead. 
• Avoid high-fat, processed foods. 
• Eat fish at least two times weekly and take a  fish oil supplement. Fish oil is the best source of dietary eicosapentanoic acid (EPA) and docosahexanoic acid (DHA), the long-chain omega-3 fats that are associated with the majority of the benefits, especially to cardiovascular health. A quality fish oil supplement like Isagenix IsaOmega Supreme™ will be free of heavy metals, PCBs and dioxins.
• Eat foods containing flax seed or walnuts. They contain a high content of omega-3 fatty acids, not to mention dietary fiber. Examples are Isagenix IsaLean® Shake or SlimCakes®, which feature flax seed.
• Enjoy IsaCrunch hemp seed as a snack or in salads, soups and yogurts. This ancient food serves as a good source of protein and provides an ideal ratio of 3:1 omega-6 to omega-3 fats, which is similar to what our hunter-gatherer ancestors are likely to have eaten.

Leading a healthy lifestyle may feel like an uphill battle, but it doesn’t have to. Yes, some dietary factors are out of our control, but we can arm ourselves with knowledge. Selectively choosing oils and electing to stay away from others will boost your omega-3 status and keep you healthier, longer.

UFC Fighter / Testimonial

I was introduced to the Isagenix products when I was looking to cut weight for a fight. With a lot of wrestling experience I am no stranger to dropping weight for a match, but this time I was not making a lot of progress.
The BJJ coach at Ring Sports United, Joel Burris and I started talking nutrition. I had cut the calories and was getting in some major cardio, but had only lost 3lbs. He offered Isagenix as a solution. I could see that it had worked for him and a couple of guys that I know so I gave it a shot.
I started with the IsaLean Shakes, Ionix Supreme and the Cleanse for Life - not even a full Nutritional Cleanse. I kept up my workouts, but work that week was pretty busy, so I couldn't get the same amount in. Just as Joel and I planned out, I had several small meals with as many fruits and vegetables I could. I think I was eating more than I had been the week prior. Over the next 3 days I lost 12 lbs. and even more important at the time - it didn't effect my conditioning. Later that week we found out that the weight class changed to unlimited, so I added another small meal or 2 to the program and I went right back to my natural weight.
Through the processes I still leaned out and added lean muscle. I felt better and more energized through the day and my workouts felt stronger. One of the really cool parts that surprised me was that my recovery time was cut in half. So I could push harder and longer and still be ready to go the next morning.
I wanted to share this with you because that is the reason I want to share the Isagenix program with you.
Since I had gotten such great results I became more interested in my diet. I have also researched a little more about all the toxins that are all around us. It is pretty interesting and a little scary really. It has made me even happier with my choice to be using Isagenix products to both meet nutritional needs and cleanse.
There is a lot of info about the products the Nutritional Cleanse, the company and so on. Way to much to make you read through here.
So I will tell you what I tell my friends - You have two choices - the Athletic Pak and the 30Day Cleanse. These two packs have all the products that you need to get going.
When you can read through what ever you like, but trust me, you can't miss. The company will even give you a 100% refund of the products if you don't feel they were all that.

Artificial Sweeteners May Increase Your Appetite

A study showed that artificial sweeteners such as aspartame
may increase your appetite. Many people use these sweeteners
to reduce the number of calories they consume.  The study
showed that after drinking artificially sweetened drinks
there was a significant increase in the number of calories
consumed.  Try drinking water instead.

We have a very real problem in the world today—nutritional deficiency

We have a very real problem in the world today—nutritional deficiency. Due to the industrialization and degradation of our food supply, we are simply not getting the building blocks that our bodies require to make healthy cells. Add to this the explosion of the fast food industry with nutritionally empty and toxic foods, the additives, preservatives, colorings, GMO, etc. etc. and it’s no wonder that we have so much sickness and obesity!

The Isa-lean shake is perhaps the most perfect food on the planet. It is from all food ingredients—not a bunch of lab made synthetics—the finest, cleanest protein in the world, over 242 nutrients including a live enzyme delivery system that makes all of these incredible nutrients super bio-available. I would recommend that each of your children have a shake a day—perhaps a half a shake for the 3 year old and a whole one (or 2 halves) for the 10 year old. In addition, we have 2 other products that I would encourage all people to eat—the Healthy Greens and the Isa-Fruits. A recent long term study done in Europe concluded that we need at least 8 servings of fruits and veggies daily to keep our risk of cancer and heart disease down. Who has the time, energy or money to do that? Considering that there are over 72 pesticides on our fruits and vegetables, imagine the toxic load if you eat 8 servings of non-organic fruits and veggies. One scoop of our greens is the equivalent of 9 servings of organic green vegetables!! Much more affordable and convenient. I put it in the vanilla shake and you have a leprechaun shake! One scoop of the fruits gives you nutrition from over 30 red foods—some of the highest nutritional density possible. 

Through Isagenix we have access to foods that help us to address the root causes of all of the disease and obesity—toxicity, nutritional deficiency and stress (Ionix Supreme!). We also have a Prosperity Product that enables people to create income through a simple Eat and Get Paid Plan. If you know 2 people who have to eat tomorrow, you can create a serious income stream here. WE have it all.

Will better sleep help you avoid extra pounds?

By Denise Mann
WebMD Feature
Reviewed by Louise Chang, MD
...

Could lack of sleep be causing you to gain weight?
Think about it: If you’re feeling sleepy at work, you may be tempted to reach for a cup of coffee (or several cups) and a doughnut for a quick shot of energy. Later you may skip the gym and pick up takeout on your way home to your family -- no time to cook. When you finally find yourself back in your bed, you are too wound up to sleep.
It’s a vicious cycle, and eventually this sleep deprivation can sabotage your waistline and your health.
It starts out innocently enough. “When you have sleep deprivation and are running on low energy, you automatically go for a bag of potato chips or other comfort foods,” saysSusan Zafarlotfi, PhD, clinical director of the Institute for Sleep and Wake Disorders at Hackensack University Medical Center in New Jersey.
The immediate result? You may be able to fight off sleepiness. The ultimate result? Unwanted pounds as poor food choices coupled with lack of exercise set the stage for obesity and further sleep loss.
“Sleep debt is like credit card debt,” Zafarlotfi says. “If you keep accumulating credit card debt, you will pay high interest rates or your account will be shut down until you pay it all off. If you accumulate too much sleep debt, your body will crash.”
Not getting enough sleep is common -- even talked about with pride -- in the U.S.  “We brag about an all-nighter, but we do pay a price for staying up late and getting up early,” says Mark Mahowald, MD, director of the Minnesota Regional Sleep Disorders Center in Hennepin County.
Understanding the Sleep-Diet Connection
The sleep-diet connection is regular fodder for diet books and magazine articles. Maybe you have even heard about the sleep diet, which suggests you can lose weight while you catch your ZZZs.
And it’s true, sort of.
“It’s not so much that if you sleep, you will lose weight, but if you are sleep-deprived, meaning that you are not getting enough minutes of sleep or good quality sleep, your metabolism will not function properly,” explains Michael Breus, PhD, author of Beauty Sleepand the clinical director of the sleep division for Arrowhead Health in Glendale, Ariz.
On average, we need about 7.5 hours of quality sleep per night, he says. “If you are getting this already, another half hour will not help you lose 10 pounds, but if you are a five-hour sleeper and start to sleep for seven hours a night, you will start dropping weight.”
Exactly how lack of sleep affects our ability to lose weight has a lot to do with our nightly hormones, explains Breus.
The two hormones that are key in this process are ghrelin and leptin. “Ghrelin is the ‘go’ hormone that tells you when to eat, and when you are sleep-deprived, you have more ghrelin,” Breus says. “Leptin is the hormone that tells you to stop eating, and when you are sleep deprived, you have less leptin.”
 More ghrelin plus less leptin equals weight gain.
“You are eating more, plus your metabolism is slower when you are sleep-deprived,” Breus says.
So what can you do about sleep deprivation?
A lot, says Breus. First, look at how much you sleep vs. how well you sleep. “Some people such as new moms may only get to sleep for a four-hour stretch. And there are some people who get 7.5 hours of sleep that is poor quality because of pain or an underlying sleep disorder, and this has the same effect  as if they got less sleep,” he says.
Trouble-shoot both with improved sleep hygiene, he says.
For starters, avoid any caffeine in the afternoon because it will keep you in the lighter stages of sleep -- which are associated with poor sleep -- at night. Breus recommends only decaf from 2 p.m. on. Exercise also helps improve sleep quality.  How soon before bed should you exercise? It depends -- everyone is different. It’s more important that you exercise than it is when you exercise.  Breus says to be safe, don’t exercise right before going to bed. “But some people exercise better before bed and it doesn’t affect their sleep,” he says.
Watch what you eat before bedtime. “Pizza and beer before bedtime is not a good idea,” says Breus. “Neither is eating a big meal close to bedtime.” He suggests eating a few healthy snacks and then having a light meal -- like a bowl of cereal -- if you’re running close to bedtime. Heavy, rich meals before bed can also increase risk of heartburn, which will certainly keep you up all night.
What if you are getting enough hours of sleep but wake up and feel sleepy the next day? “Talk to your doctor about seeing a sleep specialist,” Breus says. After conducting a thorough evaluation and sleep study, in which you are monitored while sleeping, the sleep specialist can help identify any underlying problem. Together you can develop a treatment plan so that you get more high-quality sleep -- and maybe even slim down.

Alcohol and the Myth of Moderation

One of the first things I discuss with my clients when they come to Hawaii to start a 24 Hour
Turnaround is their willingness to skip the alcohol while they are doing their 9 day program. The typical
attitude towards this request is "but wine is fat-free and only about 125 calories and the last diet I was
on allowed wine because they said it w...as good for you."
Here are the facts if you are interested in losing weight and upgrading your health: Alcohol
does cause weight gain (or prevent weight loss) by short-circuiting the metabolism of food. Let me
explain. When you eat a serving of salmon (about 125 calories and very low in fat), it undergoes a long
process of digestion before it can be used to build tissue or produce energy. It's mashed by your teeth,
softened by saliva, attacked by stomach acids, and finally worked over by billions of bacteria in your
intestines. Even after passing through the intestinal walls into your bloodstream, the digested food
products (including fat) are subjected to the "first pass" through the liver. The liver scans for unwanted
chemical signals (toxins, bacteria, and so on), and removes them from the stream of nutrients. You are
what you eat--but only after it gets through your liver.
In sharp contrast to most foods, including the low-fat salmon, alcohol requires no digestion.
About 20 percent can pass right through the walls of an empty stomach directly into your bloodstream,
and the rest is easily absorbed in the small intestine. From there it heads to the liver (just like the
salmon). The liver's method of dealing with alcohol is to metabolize it for energy, creating glucose that’s
used to power your body. This becomes a top priority for the liver, which is smart enough to know that
alcohol is a toxin. But smart as it is, the liver is fairly slow at turning the alcohol into energy. The alcohol
that can’t be used by the liver immediately enters the bloodstream, causing the blood alcohol level to
increase within a minute after the first sip.
With this extra energy available from the alcohol—and this excess toxin to be removed—the
liver becomes very busy turning almost all other food that you consume into fat. Shocking, but true.
These fats are then dumped into the blood stream where they then cause tissue damage, compromised
immunity, and storage in fat cells. The liver is still dealing with the alcohol, even after your blood
alcohol level is back to normal. It can take up to 48 hours to return to the normal metabolism of dietary
fat—during which time you will not be losing weight on your Turnaround. In fact, you may be putting on
a few extra pounds.
So take a break – help cleanse and revitalize your body with an Isagenix 9-Day or 30-Day
Nutritional Cleanse Program – for a 24 Hour Turnaround – and optimal health and weight loss.

Weight Loss Fun Facts

How dehydrated do you have to be before your metabolism drops and weight gain occurs?
A. 50% DEHYDRATED
B. 10% DEHYDRATED
C. 1% DEHYDRATED (Correct)
D. 75% DEHYDRATED
... Your body is like a car, and its oil is water. You need enough water to keep your systems running fully. You should drink enough water so that your urine is clear.

People who drink a glass of water before a meal consume an average of how many less calories per meal?
A. 25
B. 50
C. 75 (Correct)
D. 125
Over the course of a year, this multiplies to 27,000 calories, which is about 8 lbs of weight loss.  Drinking half your bodyweight in ounces of water while cleansing will really aid the detoxification process. 

To get in shape, you need to work out at your target heart rate 3 times a week for how many minutes?
A. 60 MINUTES
B. 40 MINUTES
C. 30 MINUTES
D. 20 MINUTES x (Correct)
The formula to find your ideal heart rate when exercising is 220 minus your age multiplied by 0.80.   While cleansing we suggest lymphatic work, nothing strenuous.  Rebounding lightly on a mini trampoline, dry sauna or body brushing can really activate your lymph and aid the body in its ability to rid itself of impurities.  15-20 minutes per day of lymphatic work will really accelerate your results.  

How Much Vitamin C Do You Really Need?

Higher intake of vitamin C may be needed to maintain healthy tissues.

By Susie Rockway, Ph.D. 

Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid (ascorbate), is the most frequently taken dietary supplement in North America. Yet, despite its widespread use, national surveys report that 15 percent of the population still doesn’t get enough vitamin C to meet recommended amounts for health.
Initially, the Recommended Daily Intake (RDI) for vitamin C was set at 60 milligrams, the amount required to prevent scurvy. The deficiency disease—commonly characterized by bleeding gums and loosened teeth helped identify the vitamin as having an essential role in collagen formation.
However, more recent research has now made it clear that more dietary vitamin C is needed to saturate body tissues such as the brain, heart, liver, and adrenal glands.
Consequently, in 2000, the RDI was raised to 90 and 75 milligrams daily for men and women. The new values were based on studies suggesting that plasma vitamin C should be maintained at specific levels (~80 µmol/L) for good health and antioxidant activity.
This is how the “debate on how much of vitamin C is needed” began—with scientists discussing two questions:

• How much vitamin C is really needed to make an impact on plasma levels?
• Are plasma levels really the best indication of tissue saturation levels?

Of Mice and Vitamin C 
While there is still not any consensus on this matter, a new, carefully designed study just published in the February issue of American Journal of Clinical Nutrition provides some clues for answering these questions.
In the study, New Zealand researchers compared “normal” mice vitamin C tissue saturation levels with “knockout” mice that were genetically engineered to lack the enzyme needed for synthesizing vitamin C in the body.
Without dietary vitamin C, they saw that tissue concentrations of ascorbate became deficient weeks before the onset of scurvy symptoms in the mice, similar to humans. During these weeks, the scientists observed that the mice exhibited signs of impaired collagen synthesis, changes in aortic wall structure, formation of atherosclerotic plaque, and activation of inflammatory processes.
Sustaining Tissue Concentration
The scientists observed that each tissue became deficient at different rates. For example, the brain maintained its vitamin C longer than other organs; however, after just two weeks of deficiency, vitamin C in the brain became depleted. To replenish these tissues to normal levels, plasma concentration had to be maintained saturated with daily ascorbate intakes.
In addition, they found that tissue levels of ascorbate became saturated more quickly when the mice ate kiwi fruit versus sodium ascorbate in water—the flavonoids present in kiwi are thought to enhance absorption of vitamin C by maintaining it in a reduced state (versus an oxidized state).
Lastly, based on the new evidence, the researchers wrote that the current RDI should receive no less than a 60 percent boost—from 75 milligrams per day to at least 120 milligrams per day—to keep not only plasma levels saturated, but also tissue levels of the brain, and organs that are unable to be measured with current methods.
The vitamin C researchers stressed the need for people to maintain an ongoing and constant vitamin C intake to sustain tissue concentration—which means consuming the scientists’ recommended amounts regularly.
What Weight Has to Do with Vitamin C
Another less well-known role of vitamin C is its involvement as a cofactor in the biosynthesis of carnitine, a molecule required for burning fat as energy fuel (fatty acid oxidation).
Interestingly, there is a direct inverse relationship with obesity (adiposity) and plasma vitamin C concentrations—as plasma ascorbate levels are decreased, fatty tissue increases (adiposity increases).
This association has led researchers to wonder whether or not decreased vitamin C levels cause less carnitine to be synthesized and if there is a relationship between less carnitine and less burning of fat for fuel.
Preliminary findings are that subjects who are vitamin C depleted have lower levels of carnitine leading to a 25 percent decrease in fatty acid oxidation (per kilogram body weight) than individuals whose vitamin C status is adequate.
The researchers speculate that reduced fat oxidation seen with vitamin C depletion may result in weight gain by two mechanisms:

• Indirectly, decreased carnitine leads to increased fatigue during exercise and this may lead to exercise intolerance
• Directly, by lipid (fat) accumulation

The prevalence of obesity in the world currently has led researchers to suggest that more attention is needed to the problem of vitamin C deficiency affecting at least 15 percent of the population, if not more.

Losing Stubborn Weight

 

Weight-loss plateaus happen. If they didn’t, we’d be worried. But here are a few suggestions you can use to support continued success. 

Exercise. Exercise can boost your results ten-fold, especially if it includes weight training. Not only will weight training help you build lean muscle, which helps burn fat, but it can also help strengthen bones. Be sure to consult a health-care professional before starting any exercise program.

Extra protein. A scoop of IsaPro with 1-1½ scoops of IsaLean Shake may be sufficient to provide an extra boost for supporting weight loss.

 

Snack right. We all snack. Just avoid snacking on high-calorie, nutrient-deficient foods. In other words, keep the cake, potato chips and ice cream out of the house.

Make “better bad” eating choices. If you’re out at a fast food restaurant and a greasy burger is calling your name, just choose a single-patty with lettuce and tomato and hold the cheese and mayo.
Dietary fiber. Be sure you are receiving sufficient amounts of dietary fiber daily. Fiber helps keep you feeling satisfied longer while also keeping bowel movements regular. Isagenix recommends gradually increasing fiber to 25-30 grams daily, in line with current National Fiber Council recommendations. Isagenix products FiberPro and

Weight loss success is often about making better choices.

SlimCakes can help fill fiber gaps. FiberPro is a flavorless fiber supplement that can be added to shakes or any beverage. SlimCakes are delicious oatmeal-berry flavored cookies containing 5 grams of fiber each.
Avoid sugary drinks. These can add “no nutrition” calories quickly. It’s best to drink plenty of purified water and/or nutrient-dense sugar drink alternatives such as IsaFruits.
Say no to “bad” fats. The “bad” includes saturated and trans fats. “Good” fats include olive oil rich in oleic acid and fish oil rich in omega-3 fatty acids. To take ultimate advantage of omega-3 fatty acids, it’s best to take a high-potency, high-quality fish oil supplement daily.  New research also shows that dietary omega-3 fatty acids may be linked to lower bodyweight.
Mix it up. We all have individual differences. Something that may work for one person may not work for the next. Be sure to try a few different things and see what works best for you.
Whatever you do, it’s important that you don’t become discouraged. Shoot all scales. Pay attention to your body. As you continue to enjoy a reduced-calorie diet, providing your body with quality nutrition, and building muscle through exercise, then the weight will begin to come off safely.

Fusing Aging Theories: Telomere Shortening Leads to Mitochondrial Dysfunction

Fusing Aging Theories: Telomere Shortening Leads to Mitochondrial Dysfunction

March 19, 2011 by Isagenix

 

A study finds a link between theories of aging, which could open doors for research into groundbreaking therapies.

New research is adding insight and linking three theories of aging—one that suggests telomere shortening governs lifespan, and two others that suggest dysfunctional mitochondria or oxidative stress leads to aging.
At Harvard-affiliated Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, scientists have gathered data suggesting telomere shortening is the cause of mitochondrial dysfunction and diminished antioxidant defenses. Together, they decrease the body’s energy and diminish organ function, both characteristic of old age.
As telomeres—protective caps at the end of cell chromosomes—shorten with age and begin to fray, cells activate the p53 gene, which signals an “emergency shutdown” chain of events that turns off normal cell growth and division and compromise antioxidant defenses. Going one step further, data from the carefully orchestrated mouse study, published in Nature, show that the p53 gene also represses PGC1-alpha and PGC1-beta. These PCGs are considered the master regulators of metabolism and mitochondrial function.
Repressing PCGs increases the number of dysfunctional mitochondria (with mutated mitochondrial DNA) and leads to a decrease in functional mitochondria distributed throughout in muscles and organs. The dysfunctional mitochondria in aged tissues leak greater amounts of reactive oxygen species and the lack of functional mitochondria hinders normal energy production from cell respiration (the body’s main producer of ATP energy).

Recharge Your Health with “Spring Cleansing”

March 23, 2011

By Dennis Harper, DO

We are all familiar with spring cleaning—the part of the year when we traditionally set aside time to clean the house or the yard. During this time, we should also remember our bodies.
When I’m asked about the best time to cleanse your body, my answer is generally, “As soon as your body starts to feel poorly.” The human body can give you clues for making good nutritional decisions, and listening closely to it is a great step toward being in charge of your health.
Listen to your body and act according to the feedback you receive.
If your body warns that it has put on a few pounds over the last couple of months, is lacking in energy, is feeling sluggish, or if your brain warns that it’s in need of clearing mental fog, then it may be time to perform a “spring cleansing” to help you recharge your health.

Spring forward to improved health with the Cleansing and Fat Burning System.

I personally recommend the Isagenix Cleansing and Fat Burning System for the job (now available as 30-day supply with Ageless Essentials Daily Pack)—the system comes with a range of different products including the high-protein IsaLean® Shake, the detoxification-promoting Cleanse for Life, and the adaptogen-rich Ionix® Supreme. 

Supplementing and Possibly Replacing Your Full Time Job

Supplementing and Possibly Replacing Your Full Time Job

From Wendy Moore, About.com

What is your side business? 

Isagenix is a network marketing company providing nutritional breakthroughs, giving people a unique tool that’s never been available to them before. With 50 million Americans expected to diet this year alone, and most failing to keep the weight off, sports nutrition and weight loss has become a $19.6 billion U.S. industry. This opportunity has proven itself to me to be a viable and rewarding source of income to secure my financial future. It allows me the flexibility to be my own boss and balance responsibilities of career and family. I have found both financial and nutritional success with Isagenix.

Why did you choose this particular business? 

As a real estate agent working in a changing economy I was stressing my body and my bank account and was looking for a nutritional system to support my body and a business opportunity to support my family. As I used the products, the results spoke for themselves and people in my sphere started to inquire about my overall health, wellness and weight loss. I was also determined to find a business to supplement my real estate income in a fluctuating market. Isagenix offered a profitable and inexpensive way to earn residual income and take control of my own fate. Isagenix affords me the opportunity to increase my annual income by an additional 25-50% depending on the year.

Advice 

• My advice to someone who's working full time and wants to start something on the side is to ask yourself the following set of questions to make an educated decision on pursuing:
• Leverage – Can I train other people to work with me?
• Control – Does the company have a proven training system?
• Creativity – Will the business allow me to be creative and develop my own personal style & talents?
• Expandability – Can my business grow indefinitely?
• Predictability – If I keep expanding my business, will my income increase with success and hard work?

How to eat right is a big question with big problems. If you live in North America and are not overweight or obese, then you are in the minority. It is just too easy to overeat with access to thousands of foods laden with calories that tempt you to eat day and night; and we all know how easy it is to avoid exercise.
This Month, start your road to recovery and “Eat Right with Color”—the theme of the American Dietetic Association’s National Nutrition Month®. The National Nutrition Month began in the 1980s and grew with a more health-conscious American public. Intended to promote good dietary habits and provide research-based nutritional information, this month is at the forefront of easy, everyday solutions to eating.
Eat Right with Color is a campaign that emphasizes whole foods and diets higher in fruits and vegetables. Eating good sources of low-fat dairy, getting adequate amounts of calcium, choosing lean sources of protein and staying away from saturated and trans fats are all-encompassed in this color-based campaign.
Typical diets are high in fat, sodium and devoid of fruits and vegetables. With bad foods and too little exercise, we encounter the problem: the ease of gaining fat just doesn’t compare to the difficulty of working it off. The slow gain is the killer—most people gaining 1 or 2 pounds around Thanksgiving and Christmas and then never lose it.
This gradual accumulation of fat year after year and gradual loss of muscle masks a common syndrome called sarcopenia. In addition to the fat gains, their location matters! Belly fat actually turns on specific hormones that create pro-inflammatory molecules called cytokines. Together, extra fat and muscle loss creates an environment that is inflammatory, which puts us at risk for chronic diseases.
Can we overcome this duo of doom? Indeed.
You can lose weight and you can keep it off.  You don’t need will power, you just need skill power. Isagenix can help guide you to change some of your habits and exchange them for healthier habits.
In honor of this nutrition month, here’s a dietary tip to keep you on track! Begin with consuming an IsaLean® Shake for breakfast. This high-protein shake helps you build muscle during the day, keeps you satiated (feeling fuller) much longer than a cereal based breakfast (protein is more able to satisfy you than either carbohydrate or fat). To add to the satiating power of protein, try adding fiber to the shake with Isagenix FiberPro or by having an Oatmeal Berry SlimCake® (5 grams of fiber).
You should be set until lunch. If you need more calories (men typically do need more calories than women),  then you can add a scoop of IsaPro® whey protein to boost the protein power and decrease hunger. You can add a snack between breakfast and lunch to keep you going (chomp on some almonds, walnuts or our Snacks).

What makes Ionix Supreme unique?
Ionix Supreme is a comprehensive collection of proven ingredients, well-documented to support mental and physical performance.

We found the most complete group of ingredients from around the world to create a powerful, nutrient-rich supplement containing a variety of adaptogens that help normalize the body’s functions*, reduce stress* and increase energy.*

What are adaptogens and why are they important?
Adaptogenic ingredients derived from plants help neutralize the effects of stress and power performance. Long-term stress may contribute to health conditions, such as high blood pressure, chronic anxiety and digestive issues.

What are antioxidants and why are they important?
Antioxidants promote immune health by helping to protect cells from damage by free radicals. Free radicals are created when your body is exposed to environmental toxins, stress and other everyday factors. Your wellness depends largely on how healthy your immune system is.
—Master Formulator and Founder John Anderson

To receive optimum benefits from Ionix Supreme we encourage that you take 1–2 ounces per day. The key is to listen to your body—it will often tell you when something is working positively for you. You may start off conservatively by taking ½–1 teaspoon a day and work up from there. By taking Ionix Supreme every day, you may enjoy long-term adaptogenic, anti-stress, and body-balancing benefits.

I have diabetes can I still cleanse?

If you have Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, then there are a few things of which you should be aware if deciding to use the Cleansing and Fat Burning System.

Type 1 diabetes
It’s common to have lower levels of glucose while on the products. Be careful with your use of insulin. I recommend to my patients that they cut their insulin in half while they do this program and adjust it accordingly. I also recommend my patients use short-acting insulin. Please consult your doctor before adjusting medication. You cannot expect to get off of insulin, of course, but you can expect to feel better and lower the levels of insulin required.
During the Shake Days you may find that the glucose levels increase. This is expected, but if the rise is too high then you can consider switching to diluting the shake with our unflavored whey protein, IsaPro, or having ½ a shake 4 times a day or ½ a shake 2 times day. Watch your glucose levels to guide you.

 Type 2 diabetes
Monitor your glucose levels closely since it’s easy to have low levels while on the program. I personally recommend to my diabetics that they cut their medications in half if they are going to start on the 9-Day Program and if they are using insulin to only use the shorter-acting insulins. Please consult your doctor before adjusting medication.
A temporary glucose rise would be OK since it’s better than you falling into a hypoglycemic state, which is more dangerous than a hyperglycemic state. What we generally see is a reduction of both medication and glucose levels with this program. The Shake Days may very well show an increase in the glucose levels but as your weight goes down this generally is self-correcting. If this rise is too great for you then you can switch to just the IsaPro or you can use ½ a shake 4 times a day or reduce the amount to just ½ a shake 2 times a day.
I have also seen my patients no longer require any type of medication for diabetes, but individual differences doesn’t make this the case for everyone.* At the very least you should see a reduction in your weight and a reduction in the amount of medication that you are using.

“The addition of green tea to IsaDelight Plus really enhances the flavor, giving it a more exotic, European taste. You can expect greater antioxidant support, better Cleanse Days, improved mood and an even bigger energy boost. I am truly proud of this chocolate. One taste and you’ll be hooked!”
-Dr. Paul Anderson

“After eating just two IsaDelight Plus, my energy was fantastic and my moods were even better. It is so creamy and smooth. The green tea is a wonderful addition!”
-Burcay Ozer New York, NY

“If you want to feel great, lose weight and curb cravings while eating delicious chocolate, then IsaDelight Plus is for you!”
-Dr. Mark Kimes, D.C. Carmel, CA

“IsaDelight Plus is incredible. I am excited about the addition of green tea for even more antioxidant protection. My hunger was kept at bay for hours and I felt more energized and focused.”
-Susan Sly Kingston, Ontario

How can IsaDelight PLUS help stop cravings for sugar and carbohydrates?

When your “feel good” chemicals are low, you crave unhealthy foods. IsaDelight Plus boosts “feel good” chemicals, which helps curb cravings.

Why have you added green tea extract to make IsaDelight Plus?

Green tea improves the nutritional benefits of this super chocolate by providing even more antioxidant support. It may also assist in boosting fat metabolism to help with weight-management goals.

Does IsaDelight Plus contain caffeine?

IsaDelight Plus contains only 13 milligrams or less of naturally-occurring caffeine from its chocolate, which is similar to the amount found in a decaffeinated cup of coffee, or a full size chocolate candy bar.

How does IsaDelight Plus support weight loss?

IsaDelight Plus is excellent for curbing cravings throughout the day, so it is perfect for Cleanse and Shake Days. Take 1-2 chocolates up to twice daily, best taken on an empty stomach or 2-3 hours after meals. New scientific studies suggest that not only does green tea extract contain antioxidant catechins (including EGCG) that help fight free radicals, but it also supports increased fat-burning potential in the body.

What makes IsaDelight Plus an even healthier treat?

Made from cocoa beans, chocolate contains many of the health benefits derived from fruits and dark vegetables. Dark chocolate is loaded with flavonoids (nearly eight times the number found in strawberries), which act as antioxidants to protect your body from free radicals. With the addition of 125mg of green tea extract, this super chocolate has even more youth-boosting antioxidant strength.

Improves Mood. Curbs Cravings. Boosts Energy. Helps Burn Fat and Decreases Hunger.

What should I know about IsaDelight Plus™?

Enjoy dark chocolate decadence without the guilt. This powerful green tea-enhanced treat packs an extra antioxidant boost while helping to curb cravings, increase fat metabolism, enhance mood and boost energy, leaving you looking and feeling your absolute best! Green tea contains EGCG, which guards cells against free radicals and promotes heart health. It also helps support fat burning and curbs cravings while supporting weight management goals. Just two rich and delicious treats contain the antioxidant capacity of one cup of green tea, with an ORAC value of over 5,700.

How can I benefit from eating IsaDelight Plus?

During a woman’s cycle or change of life, “feel good” chemicals can drop, which can cause sugar cravings. IsaDelight Plus helps boost your “feel good” chemicals, which can help to reduce cravings. It also contains a special blend of B Vitamins, minerals and essential amino acids, which support positive mood and optimal mental energy. By curbing cravings, satisfying IsaDelight Plus strengthens your will to cleanse, promoting easy and healthy weight-management, leaving you feeling great!
