Americans and Canadians spend more than $35 billion a year to lose weight and are getting heavier. The U.S. National Center for Health Statistics reported that the number of overweight American adults increased by 31 percent during the 1980s and further increased in the 90's. About half the adults in Canada and the USA are overweight. Weight related diseases, especially diabetes 2 will be the most common cause of disease and disability in the 21st century unless this weight trend is reversed. About 35% of women and 31% of men are obese in the USA. Obesity is defined as the fat proportion of body weight exceeding 30% in women and 25% in men. Most studies indicate that over 90% of people who lose weight regain it. If weight regulation is going to be successful, it must be spontaneous.There are no legitimate products on the market that cause or aid weight loss. There are no machines that magically remove cellulite, fat or replace legitimate exercise. Misleading journalism and unregulated product promotion combine with fraud to dominate the public perception of weight loss. Unfortunately, enough overweight people appear to be misinformed and gullible to keep this wasteful and misleading weight loss industry going. Weight loss products and claims appear to be completely out of control as regulatory agencies in the USA and Canada have given up even token attempts at regulation. Alpha Nutrition Program Ideas We have some good ideas about weight management. All require intelligent understanding , planning and discipline. If you are overweight, unwell and developing some pretty serious diseases, you have to stop and change directions. Constructive change is hard to implement and we know many of the reasons why people fail. No quick fixes here. Weight Loss not a task for conscious, intentional effort. In other words, calorie charts, scales, diet sheets and good intentions are not adequate tools to regulate body weight over a life-time. If weight regulation is going to be successful, it must be spontaneous. The regulation of appetite and metabolism is the responsibility of automatic programs built into your body. These programs follow ancient principles of biological design. One strategy to solve compulsive eating and lose weight is to have a food holiday. You stop all food input, go through a quick withdrawal, clear symptoms and have a fresh start on solving eating problems. Food can be replaced by an elemental nutrient formula that has high nutrient density, easy to use, quickly-absorbed and free of food problems. Alpha ENF, supplies complete nutrition while you rest and recover. We encourage everyone with weight problems to give diet revision a try. Look at the Alpha Nutrition Program, a detailed diet revision plan. If you are Diabetic Order the Diabetes Rescue Starter Pack.
