Are You Ready to Fix Your Slow Metabolism?

If you're serious about losing the fat that has accumulated around your abdominal area over the years, you'll need to do the following:

1.  Cut out certain foods from your diet
2.  Eat specific foods on a daily basis
3.  Avoid certain medications
4.  Never again use artificial sweeteners...EVER!

We'll discuss the specifics to all of the above.  For now, I think it's important that we understand that no amount of diet pills, dieting, organized meetings or foods-shipped-to-your-door will ever result in a permanent fat loss.  Thus, the phrase, "yo-yo dieting."

The goal is to encourage the growth of the "good" or "skinny" bacteria/flora and to discourage the "bad" or "fat" bacteria/flora in your intestines.  It really is that simple....to say.  Not so simple, for most, to do.  It takes understanding (why you need to do it) and commitment (to actually do it).

I suggest you purchase the book, The Cruise Control Diet, by James Ward, for the detailed specifics of this program.

The first step to fixing a slow metabolism involves killing off the bad gut bugs (the ones which cause you to crave and turn the foods you eat into fat) and help the good gut bugs to grow (the ones that turn your food into energy).

This step is critical to a fast metabolism. In fact, those with lots of good gut bugs enjoy much more food without worrying about gaining weight. That's the secret as to why all those naturally skinny people get away with it.

How to replenish and protect our good bugs, will be our next topic.
