Raise your hand if you have an hour a day for exercise

Before you read about this new study just remember you are very different from the people in the study. You know about Metabolic Nutrition and know what you should be eating to keep the weight off. You also know me and know that if you need motivation or tweaking I can help with the Acucoach program. There aren't many people out there who have the wonderful resources you do. So now you can actually read the study and SMILE!!

Bones......is thicker better? Me thinks not.......

I knew about this but didn't know the extent. Here's a quick article about some of the problems with osteoporosis medications.
Metabolic Nutrition can help your bones with the foods that support your metabolic functioning.

Variety truly is the Spice of Life

Immediately following your Metabolic Test results, you’ll receive your food plan. You'll notice something important about it: all food groups are represented. No matter what your Metabolic Type turns out to be, there will be a variety of vegetables to choose from in planning your meals and delicious grains to match your metabolism needs as well. In fact, vegetarians can flourish on either one of the Metabolic food programs. For the carnivores there are healthy meats. One program offers lighter fish while the other suggests a fattier fair. It’s all easy enough to find something to order in most restaurants. Each list has a variety of dairy products to choose from including yummy yogurt. Yes, the Type 2 food program has a longer list of nuts and fats, but Type 1's also get their due amount of fats to cover this category. Both menus offer plenty of variety to keep you interested in your program for the long haul. That's why so many people are still following their recommended program many years later.

The Scramble to Stay Healthy

Let's start with the idea that our bodies are on a very small playground when it comes to chemistry. We operate best at around 7.47 blood pH--or acid/alkaline balance--with little wiggle room around it.
OK, what about living? We are constantly asking our body to compensate for the effects of how we live our lives. The weather tries to change our pH , our activities change our pH, and even stress has an effect. Therefore our body often needs to scramble to get our blood back to its correct pH.
Our best tool for stabilizing our chemistry is the food we eat. For about 9 hours a day we are digesting. What a great opportunity to coax our pH in the right direction! And no, we are not all acidic and need to eat alkaline fruits and vegetables. I, for one, skew to the alkaline side when I eat and need to sit down to a meal of lighter foods to make me a bit more acidic. My fellow alkaline skewing humans who are a different Metabolic Type need heavier, fattier foods filled with purines to make them balanced. Let's just say I need to bring my own sandwich when I go over to their place for lunch.......
PH balance is an overlooked area when it comes to nutrition, but a profound tool in allowing people to help themselves and stay far away from the doctor's office........except for that annual checkup.

90% of your immune system is located in your gut

It's no wonder that we developed a powerful system of defense in the mucus lining of our digestive tract. Our body wants to keep us safe from toxins, bugs and irritants.
Metabolic Nutrition is the best way to balance and repair your digestive tract by bathing it in the perfect pH all day long. No more leaky gut where nasty things slip by your guards.
I just read this about the flu vaccination, for those of you still deciding about this other way to boost your immune response.

QUICK RELATED QUOTE & FACTS:
QUOTE: "There's no conclusive scientific evidence that the amount of mercury one might get from a flu shot is linked with any neurological development outcome that's negative." --- Jeanne Santoli, deputy director of immunization services division for the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

FACT: A typical flu shot contains 50,000 parts per billion of mercury.
FACT: The EPA classifies a liquid with 200 parts per billion of mercury as hazardous waste.
FACT: The legal "safe" limit for mercury in drinking water is 2 parts per billion
FACT: For each flu-shot, a 22-pound baby gets more than 25 times the amount of mercury considered safe. And doctors are recommending that many babies and children get two flu shots this season.
FACT: A material safety data sheet from Eli Lilly and Co., a former producer of flu vaccines, says exposure to thimerosal may include "fetal changes, decreased offspring survival and lung tissue changes. Exposure in utero and in children may cause mild to severe mental retardation and mild to severe motor coordination impairment."

Welcome to the World of Metabolic Nutrition

This is the brand new home of the Metabolic Nutrition Family of practitioners and their happy clients.
Since the Metabolic Nutrition program doesn't fit into a neat little sound-bite, we'll have some room to stretch out and share some great stories and some sound science.

Here's what one of our clients had to say just last week.....

"My contest prep has been going great and I'm easily the most shredded I've ever been. It's gone so well that I've decided to do a competition 5 weeks earlier than I was planning AND I think I have a great shot at winning my class and subsequently, my pro-card."
Continuation of the story....
"The metabolic typing has worked wonders. I wound up taking 2nd in my class! It was a close call but my conditioning is what pushed me that high up in the first place. I came in harder, more defined, and more balanced top to bottom than anyone in my class so I was very, very pleased with that since it's truly the only thing in one's control. So now the season has begun and I have three more shots--albeit very tough shots--at a Pro-card."
Best,
Mike
