There have never been more low calorie and low fat products in the supermarkets, with some “light” products doubling their market share year on year, yet we have higher levels of obesity and type 2 diabetes than ever before. So... how can this be? www.BeNiceToYou.com just might have the answer to that!
Because, as Kate Walker of BeNiceToYou.com told That's Health: “There is a direct correlation between the invention of manufactured fats and low calorie sweeteners and the increase in obesity and diet related diseases such as type 2 diabetes.
"If you plot them together on a timeline, the relationship between these products and such diseases becomes very obvious”.
She went on to say: “Low calorie manufactured foods have had the calories removed from them by replacing the natural sugars with sweeteners and the natural fats with manufactured ones, which on the face of it seems like a good idea, but these products are so alien to our systems that our bodies have no idea what to do with them. This puts the body under stress which then creates the right conditions for storing fat.”
According to a study published by The American Psychosomatic Society calorie restrictive diets increase the production of Cortisol in the liver, cortisol being a critical factor in fat storage in the body.
“Calories are meaningless because the way in which the calorific values of foods are determined bears absolutely no relation to the way our bodies process them. Humans break down food with enzymes in a chemical process that releases energy and, more importantly, the nourishment.
"What we don’t do is incinerate food at high temperatures using electricity in a bomb calorimeter. Calories are simply an unreliable measure of the energy potential in our food and bear absolutely no relation at all to how nourishing the food is. All foods contain calories to one degree or another, but not all foods contain nourishment. Nourishment is important because that’s the minerals, vitamins and trace elements the body needs to build and replace millions of cells that die every day. Calories don’t build cells.”
There are low calorie foods that contain little or no nourishment and these tend to be manufactured foods. Conversely there are low and high calorie foods that are packed with nourishment and these tend to be the more natural products. So the conclusion is that it doesn’t matter how many calories there are in the food we eat, the important thing is how much nourishment we are able to extract from the food. If we want to slim down as a nation and reverse the diabetes trend, we need to see our food differently. Counting calories doesn’t work because they don’t matter. We need to look beyond calories and see the nourishment in our food.

Fat Tax?
The scientists at Bio-Synergy have revealed the FamouslyFit Shape, Tone, and Sculpt series of slimming capsules, the latest in a line of innovative lifestyle nutrition products from the dynamic UK company.
The Shape, Tone, and Sculpt line offers customers the chance to get the celebrity figure of their dreams and turn their everyday routine into a walk down the red carpet.
Designed with a rare and exotic blend of South American plants, established micronutrients, and leading-edge science, the waist-tightening triumvirate targets the vital areas of weight loss: body fat, metabolism, and cellulite.
“The Shape, Tone, and Sculpt line is the first comprehensive package of supplements to tackle the three most important strategies for slimming,” said Daniel Herman, the Bio-Synergy CEO.
“We’ve ventured deep into the South American jungle to bring customers a completely new and innovative formula featuring rare herbs and extracts that deliver incredible and never-before-seen weight loss results.”
Shape capsules contain a powerful combination of micronutrients: chitosan, a small molecule that binds to fat and prevents it from being absorbed into the body; chromium, a metallic element used by diabetics to regulate their blood sugar (and thus cut down on the sugar lows that lead to wagon-chucking cravings); and L-carnitine, which helps your body more efficiently transport fat molecules for their breakdown into energy.
The Tone Slimming Capsules bring you the benefits of a range of rare herbal extracts: Yerba Maté, a rare species of holly that contains anti-oxidants, anti-carcinogens, and has protected South American aboriginals from obesity for millennia; Green Tea extract; and the invigorating effect of Guarana, another remarkable discovery from South America that delivers a powerful dose of caffeine twice as potent as coffee beans.
The Sculpt line targets cellulite with a remarkable blend of CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), L-carnitine, and Yerba Maté that targets stubborn fat deposits. CLA has been shown to block fat cells from filling up with fat and it may have some effect on skeletal muscle, possibly stimulating muscle growth and fat burning. It’s been shown to be so effective in assisting weight loss that it can deliver an average 9% reduction in body fat mass.
The FamouslyFit Shape, Tone, and Sculpt line will be available in bottles of 30, 60, or 90 capsules at online retailers www.littlewoods.com , www.freemans.com and www.amazon.co.uk and retail for roughly £12.99, £21.99, and £29.99, respectively.
Bio-Synergy has been producing supplements locally in the UK for 15 years. Under the direction of CEO Daniel Herman, Bio-Synergy pioneered a number of innovative products including a two-phase programme of Creatine and women’s Skinny products that have cemented its position as one of the top sports supplement and lifestyle nutrition companies in the country. Bio-Synergy’s dedication to excellence has earned it acclaim from numerous sources, including Number One honours from Body Fit Magazine, the Daily Mail, the Daily Mirror, and Fabulous Magazine.
