    The Surest Way To Live Better, Longer

    Perhaps the oldest anti-aging technique on record is eating less. Wise men have known this for centuries. The thing that has changed is that now modern science has tested this approach, measured its effect and even found out how it works.

    When you eat less, you get a number of benefits:

    • Body temperature drops
    • Blood pressure lowers
    • Cholesterol levels drop
    • Cells divide at a slower rate
    • The rate of glycation drops
    • Free radical activity drops
    • Inflammation lessens

    Essentially what is happening is a form of hibernation. You are “living less,” thus adding years to your lifespan. The less food you eat, the less your metabolic system has to work.

    Smile More, Just Like JD

    We were taking a break during filming for my new POWERFit program and JD started to tell me his story…

    “I was on the Canadian National Water Ski team for five years. After that, I kept eating but not working out.

    “I gained more than 30 pounds. I went from 155 pounds to 187. I would maybe try some workout for two weeks, then stop, then start again. Traditional stuff, weightlifting, cardio… nothing was working.

    “I even tried CrossFit. It’s one of those insane workout programs. I couldn’t get through any of the exercises.

    Terri Brightens Up The Whole Office

    My patient Terri L. is bubbling with energy.

    When she comes into the office now she has a big smile on her face, she greets my whole staff and has so much to say. She’s shed 80 pounds so far, and she was in the office just yesterday telling my staff happily, “… and everything that’s left is all muscle!”

    Terri seems completely unrelated to the person I met when she first came to me as a patient. She was lethargic, walked slow and talked slow. She had her head down all the time, spoke in a monotone and had hardly any animation.

    Now she’s very energetic, and everyone notices the difference.

    Why?

    Ready for Your Beach Body?

    With summer here, everyone wants that beach body. And they want it in record time.

    That’s why everyone is asking for the “fat burner.”

    “Who was that guy that lost 28 pounds in 10 weeks?”

    “I heard about the lady who says she gets noticed everywhere she goes…”

    That’s what I hear in the office.

    Here’s the deal: I do have a slimming formula. And the stories you’ve been hearing are true.
