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.

The holidays and your Metabolism

It's as easy as choosing between heavy foods or lighter foods (protein and fats) or purines or no purines. Do you treat guacamole as a side dish or a condiment? Is wheat your enemy or the best thing that can happen to you? Is spinach healthy for everyone? Maybe leafy greens would be better.
How do you know which way to go?
Come in for a Metabolic Typing test and walk away with recommendations for exactly what you should be eating. No more guessing. Instead of the norm of gaining 5 to 10 lbs. during the holidays you can actually lose weight, just by making the best food choices. Having balanced pH and stable blood sugar all day long are a true gift you will be giving yourself and your loved ones.

Salt, sugar, fat OH MY!

Dr. David Kessler is making the rounds of the talk shows and making a lot of sense. The good news is that Metabolic Nutrition is the perfect antidote to the salt, sugar, fat cravings we all have developed. It's the most satisfying way to eat because your cells are finally allowed to tell you what they truly need and this overrides what your brain is craving. Eating whole foods, matched to your Metabolic Type, is like going back in time to when we all ate locally and the foods were fresh and inviting. Yummy!

Early Birds get to listen

Have a wonderful holiday but remember to get a good night's sleep on Sunday. "Why?" you ask.

Bright and early Monday morning 12/29/08 @ 7:05 a.m. EST to be exact, you'll be able to get all the information you'll need to start making those New Year's Resolutions to get in shape, loose some weight and eat right.

Frank Truatt of radio WTBQ out of Warwick, NY will be interviewing Christine Sotmary about all the latest developments in Metabolic Nutrition and how to best nourish your battered body after those holiday parties that will leave many of you feeling tired, bloated and packing a few more pounds.

When drug companies study themselves

This study has been making the rounds of the airwaves this week. People with normal cholesterol levels are being told they need to lower their cholesterol even more to avoid a heart attack.

My observations are that the same company that makes Crestor, the recommended drug, did the study. Not my favorite way to fund objective science. They also ended the study early, at the point where they got the positive results they were looking for but before they studied the possible negative effects of long term use of this $1,200 a year cholesterol lowering drug, including increasing the possibility of developing diabetes.

Metabolic Nutrition is a much more natural way to lower the inflammatory process in the blood vessels and reduce the possibility of a heart attack without the awful side effects. Having your pH levels and blood sugar levels balanced all day long creates the perfect metabolic environment for health and happiness.

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.
