60 Minutes Stole My Program?!?

The Faceless Fat Loss program covers as one of the perhaps five central ideas that sugar is a bit of a problem…

…Actually, a little bit MORE than a “bit” of a problem.

The mainstream is finally acknowledging what the alternative researchers, like myself, have been screaming at people for years now.

The segment from 60 minutes is below via the link.  Just watch it.

For those of you in the FLFL program, you will see near identical information presented during those segments.

So you won’t learn much of anything new.

But note the information regarding insulin receptors on cancer tumors.

The big picture is finally on its way to being assembled folks.

And it’s about time.

“All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.” ~ Arthur Schopenhauer, German philosopher

60 Minutes of Sugar

The long-running 60 minutes documentary show will air a segment tonight on sugar as a toxin/poison, and will likely reference the notion of placing warning labels on foods containing sugars, so that consumers are aware of how they can be negatively impacted by what they’re consuming…not too different from the warning labels we see on cigarettes.

I have a huge focus on sugar in my Faceless Fat Loss materials.  It seems like mass awareness is finally happening, such that ten to twenty years from now, more knowledge of this issue will be commonplace.  The added bonus with this movement is that with more awareness, come more readily-funded studies into the subject matter, and what has been known to alternative practitioners for years, will be a standard part of western medicine practice…finally…thereby reducing or reversing a great great many health problems that people are facing today.

It should be interesting to see how the issue is handled on the show.

After all, 60 minutes is a prime time media staple.  Almost as much as sugar is an economic food staple.

I’m curious to see how the subject is approached, and will get an even bigger kick out of seeing who the advertising sponsors are for the show.

Not that the two need be related in any way at all…such is the nature of commerce.

Questioning the Mayo Clinic’s Findings:

In the March 2012 issue of the Mayo Clinic Health Letter, an article covering the “Risks of Vitamin Supplements” discusses various vitamins and minerals and how their use seems to suggest that they could be more of a danger than an actual help.

While I do not necessarily disagree with their findings in full, there is so much information omitted from the research that the reader is not left with enough to decide on which approach may be best for him or her.

As most of you know, I’m all for getting as much of our nutritional content from our foods as possible, while perhaps using some additional whole-food supplements, and naturally-sourced supplements on occasion to enhance our health as well.  These supplements that I use and promote are overwhelmingly nature-based, as compared to being constructed in a lab.  I am not completely against using vitamins and minerals that may have been formulated in a laboratory environment for specific purposes, such as during illness or injury where applicable, but the fact remains that a great many people will read this article presented by the Mayo Clinic, and misunderstand its intentions, based on having their own interpretation of what’s being conveyed.

For example, the article states that when it comes to minerals such as magnesium (we’ll use this example specifically since it was referenced) that an Iowa Women’s Health Study indicated that “the risk of premature death increased 3.6 percent in those taking magnesium…”

They failed to tell the reading audience exactly what kind of magnesium was being taken.  Was this a pill form of magnesium?  (Of which there are many varieties)  Was magnesium sterate or other additives with questionable safety added to the supplement?  Was the supplement actually absorbed in their bodies?  Did they run any kind of tests to determine blood plasma levels of magnesium (which by the way, would not be an adequate test to determine whether the person was magnesium deficient or not since so much of the body’s magnesium stores are intercellular).  Were the participants taking enough magnesium to experience bowel tolerance?  Did the researchers understand that taking magnesium pills can take years to build up in the body to adequate, healthy magnesium levels?

The list of questions goes on and on.

But a huge number of people will read the article, from an organization that has a long-standing reputation of respect and admiration, and will misunderstand exactly what the findings where actually about.

Eggies: Probably Not a Good Idea.

There is an ad on tv for a product that claims to shorten the cooking time, or at least the effort involved in making and eating hard-boiled eggs.

The first thing that I noted, was that it seemed a little silly…is it THAT hard for people to deal with taking the shell off a hard-boiled egg?

I do love hard boiled eggs.  But we should also note that of all the ways to eat eggs, it is the least biologically available protein from an egg source we can get.  Raw eggs are of course the first, and surprisingly, pouched eggs come in as a near-tie.  Often when I’m traveling, if I have to go to a restaurant with family or friends that I normally would not attend, such as one of the national breakfast chains we all know by name, I’ll simply opt for four pouched eggs and a side plain fruit if they have it, and will be happy with that.  I haven’t eaten pancakes in years, though I may incorporate them back into a weekend cheat one of these days.  I used to love them as a kid with maple syrup (and of course using only REAL maple syrup now, not the commercial 98% high fructose corn syrup!)

ANYWAY.

These Eggie things are using what looks like plastic…a plastic “shell” of sorts that you plop the raw egg into, then cook at what I would assume is at or near boiling to cook the egg hard boiled.

This just HAS to increase our exposure to plastics yet once again, xenoestrogens and all.  Not only toxic, but does absolutely nothing for our fat/weight loss efforts to have anything messing with estrogen in our bodies.  The heat as an added component, especially at these temperatures (!) is what doubly concerns me.

Just hard-boil the old-fashioned way, and peel off the shell…is it really THAT hard (boiled)?   ……(pun)…;p

Feedback on Enzyme/Probiotic Combo:

There has already been feedback from a few participants on the RenewLife enzymes and probiotics referenced in the link below.  Some really interesting and potentially incredible effects.

The first was from a woman who referenced having very large bowel movements since she started…about twice the normal volume.

Then one day, she found about a two-inch long piece of nearly black fecal matter, with “strings” hanging off it.

All of these bowel movements were easy to have as well.

Another person has already experienced, within just a couple days, some pretty dramatic improvement in both a skin issue as well as a long-standing lung issue, along with increased energy and a lot of relief of symptoms.

Same with a third report in, whereby symptom relief was again experienced involving arthritic conditions.

Free For Teens Weight Loss

Maintenance Motions is happy to announce that the FacelessFatloss program, found to the right of this page, is being offered on a limited basis to struggling teens in conjunction with parental approval and their family doctor’s support.

As I was about my travels two nights ago, I noticed a teenager on his bike on one of our busier streets here in Rochester NY.  The youngster of about 14 or so, was carrying a solid 50 pounds of extra weight on his frame, and my heart went out to him.

We can’t continue to have our kids live this way.

When I was growing up, nearly all of us in high school had slim and attractive bodies.  Extra weight was in the minority, and statistics are showing that the obesity rate amongst youngsters has simply skyrocketed since those days.  This phenomenon seemed to start around the mid-90’s or so, and has ballooned since then.

This simply does not need to be happening.

Teens are making the wrong food choices primarily, and it is not entirely their fault; the readily accessible foods that they have are mostly junk, or the fastest convenience foods via vending machines or restaurants are virtual poisons.

Isn’t it worth making changes to take full advantage of all the wonderful things youth has to offer?

Of course it is.
