FEATURED LAB TEST
|
|
ALCAT
 The ALCAT test is a food sensitivity test that measures white blood cell response to hundreds of different foods. A study was performed that used the ALCAT test to design a custom diet that removed foods the individual was reactive to. Participants of this study who followed the ALCAT-designed diet lost more weight and body fat than those individuals who did not.

Greetings!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Welcome to the December 2010 issue of NUTRITIOUS BYTES, where we will focus on Metabolism & Weight Loss.

Don't Count Calories, Just Burn Them.
|  The New Science of Weight Loss.
If you want to achieve a better and healthier body you need to take advantage of cutting-edge science. After resolving to lose weight, the important factors to be addressed are:
1. Appetite control and food craving
2. Body fat loss
3. Muscle preservation and growth
Appetite
The best of intentions don't stand a chance when the body's powerful drive to eat is unbridled. If you don't have a scientifically-structured program, your chance of success is slashed. Low-calorie diets often lead to excessive hunger. Many factors within our control conspire to produce diet-busting cravings and appetite. For example, if you don't get enough sleep, levels of the hormones leptin and ghrelin change to increase appetite. For more on this subject, watch the recording of my webinar, "TAME YOUR APPETITE & CURB YOUR CRAVINGS".
Body Fat Loss
Although body fat loss is an obvious goal for any weight loss program, it is not automatic. Unfortunately, many weight loss programs result in a loss of a lot of lean healthy tissue with lesser amounts of fat loss. A metabolic state needs to be created that will allow your body to selectively burn fat while preserving muscle. One powerful determinant of your ability to burn fat is your insulin level. High levels of insulin favor fat building while inhibiting fat burning. Eat a muffin or a bowl of cereal for breakfast and you're setting the stage for a day of excessive insulin release and fat-building.
Muscle Preservation & Growth
Building muscle may not be your goal but it should be. Loss of muscle is possibly the most important change that occurs with aging. Muscle helps to give shape to your body. Importantly, muscle burns calories. The more muscle you have the more calories your body burns 24 hours a day. If your weight loss program results in loss of muscle, your metabolism slows and you are more likely to regain the weight you lost (in the form of fat). I like to track my patients' body composition (fat and muscle weight) on a regular basis to see if their program needs fine-tuning. This is done with a non-invasive test called a bioimpedance analysis.
Appetite, fat burning, and muscle building are controlled by factors largely within our control. Lifestyle and environmental factors you are exposed to are critical to consider to maximize your metabolism for weight loss. The influences include:
Diet
Exercise
Sleep
Environmental toxins
Intestinal bacteria
Stress
Insulin resistance
Nutrient deficiencies
Food sensitivities
Inflammation
Hormone & Neurotransmitter balance
Mitochondrial function
pH balance
The above factors can all be analyzed and lead to a personalized therapeutic lifestyle program that incorporates diet, exercise, nutritional supplementation, stress reduction, and other natural therapies to optimize metabolism and health.
For a more in-depth discussion on metabolism and weight loss, attend my upcoming webinar or lecture.

Eat less and exercise more and you'll lose weight. Right? Not necessarily.
The human body is much more complex than that. Most people understand that an underactive thyroid can interfere with weight loss. Actually, there are a multitude of hormones, neurotransmitters, enzymes and cell receptors that interact in determining the ultimate fate of the food we eat; it can be burned for energy, used to build lean healthy tissue, or stored as fat.
The exciting news is that cutting-edge science is leading to new special lab tests and natural therapies and lifestyle approaches to help us "battle the bulge". Dr. Joseph Debé will discuss what we can do to improve body composition, reduce body fat accumulation, and speed burning of body fat. |
