Diet food makes you fat!

Stop! Put that low fat cereal bar / chocolate substitute / diet coke down right now!!!

Unless you want to increase your body fat you need to read this!

With the raft of information flooding the media about obesity, weight loss and how fat we are becoming it's only fair to think you're doing the right thing by replacing your full fat counterparts with diet and low fat options but before you opt for the low fat rice snacks take a minute to think about why obesity levels and the use of artificial sweeteners have risen simultaneously!

Resarchers, Susan Swithers and Terry Davidson from Purdue University, Indiana, conducted a study substituting a low-calorie yoghurt for a full fat version and found that the low-calorie study group gained more weight and body fat than the group using the sugary version.

It was found that sweet tasting foods stimulated the body to receive a high amount of calories. When this doesn't happen the body's system gets confused and compensates by stimulating people to eat more or by burning less as a result.

This doesn't mean you should bin the intentions to cut back on the sugar though! Just replace your sugar-free treats with clean wholesome foods, packed with nutrients the body needs to perform efficiently.

In our elimination diet we encourage eating only real, whole organic foods with nothing artificial added. It's worked for thousands of clients and there's zero calorie counting involved. I use this approach with all my clients and myself and I've yet to see it fail!

So, my advice,

Eat only fresh fruit, vegetables, and protein

Avoid processed food like the plague

Sugar is not your friend

Cook from scratch - anything in a packet or jar is not real food!
