5,000 calories each day in order to build muscles. Are you hitting the gym every
day? If so, great, I have no problem with your snacking every day. That’s why
snacks are included on the Perfect 10 Diet plan. If you are not working out, keep
snacks to a minimum. It is disturbing to see the frequent meal approach
becoming a mainstream recommendation for the whole nation, regardless of age
or activity level. Snacks add up to hundreds of calories and can easily make you
put on the pounds. Three meals a day is plenty. Snacks should be included in
your diet if you’re hungry or diabetic, or on the days that you work out. You are
encouraged to exercise 3 to 4 days a week on the Perfect 10 Diet.
The Perfect 10 Diet is here, and the party is over for fad diets. One hundred
percent real food and with nothing artificial to enhance it: now that’s true
perfection. Are you ready to give your hormones a makeover to improve health
and lose weight? Great. But is it too late for you to start the Perfect 10 Diet after
decades on the wrong approach? Can you reverse the damage? I certainly hope
so. Don’t wait for the medical organizations and authorities to change their
views on low-fat advice or manufactured fat. Please don’t be tempted to get on
the latest lowcarb trend or order processed food from the big popular chains.
Your health is at stake, and it is your most valuable asset, not to be treated like
few dollars to throw away in Las Vegas when you have no chance of winning.
Make an effort now to save your life. We of this generation are on our own.
We may have changed with the passage of time, but the biology inside us has
not.
Mark’s Story
Mark is a 35-year-old patient who came to see me for relief from
frequent and severe headaches. Mark is 5 feet, 9 inches tall. When he first
came to see me, he weighed 260 pounds. His body mass index was a
whopping 40 percent (30 percent is considered obese).
Mark was morbidly obese, almost twice his healthy weight, and his blood
pressure was markedly elevated. In order to rule out a neurological cause
for his headaches, I referred him for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of
his brain. His MRI came back as normal, so it became clear to me that
Mark’s headaches were related to his elevated blood pressure— which was
caused by his obesity.
Mark’s blood work showed a markedly elevated triglyceride level (a risk
for heart disease when high, and indicative of excessive carbohydrate
intake). Mark had very low levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol
(C-HDL), which is another risk for heart disease when low. His
