Diet 360
Fighting the Asymmetrical Battle against Fat
by David Steinman, Healthy Living Article
The Battle of the Bulge
One-third of Americans are overweight, either by a
little or a lot. Obesity affects both adults and children, men and
women, and leads to long-term declines in health. Getting people
skinnier might save more money than all the health care reform bills.
Yet when it comes to the war against obesity in this country, we need to
recognize we are fighting an asymmetrical battle—and that we are in the
trenches and on the streets, fighting 24/7.
Fighting weight loss is a battle on many fronts, often
without formal enemies. The enemy is within and without, might come
disguised as stress with high cortisone levels that lead to binge
eating; it doesn’t wear a uniform and might come with those cookies with
flavor enhancers; doesn’t declare war or fight by the rules of
engagement; and could be disguised as poor sugar uptake by your cells.
In military parlance, this is called asymmetrical
warfare—and that’s what it has come to with obesity in the United States
of Anxiety. When the enemy is unconventional, your tactics must be
equally adaptive.
Reasons for Weight Gain
There are many reasons for weight gain: cultural,
emotional, physical, biological, genetic, dietary, and lifestyle
influences all can play a role. Maybe you were raised in an environment
where fat-laden fried foods were served every night and day, or perhaps
you work in a stress-filled job that leaves eating as your only outlet
for pent-up emotions.
Perhaps you’re a member of the “TV generation” that
shuns outdoor exercise, or maybe you’re one of the millions living life
on-the-go who turn to quick, cheap calories provided by fast-food
restaurants. Or maybe you spend too much time playing video games.
For the majority of us with weight to lose, it’s
likely that several of these factors are adding unwanted pounds.
A Multifaceted Approach
The obesity enemy demands a multifaceted approach.
This is warfare, boys and girls, of personal importance, and of real
interest to the folks at Garden of Life, the company that brought you
FücoTHIN, the nation’s hottest diet supplement. This time,
Garden of
Life has come up with a new weight loss formula, incorporating the
active ingredient in the earlier formula, and based on clinically
studied ingredients that enable you to fight an effective asymmetrical
war at the level of your enemies’ real stop points—a full 360 degrees of
diet protection.
Diet 360 is the first formula that addresses just
about all major weight loss issues for a global approach— plus with its
key ingredients, it’s actually a weight loss pill that is healthy for
you. And that’s what we like. Nobody can argue that some of these
ingredients stand out on their own for real health importance.

There Is No "One Solution" To Weight Loss
“Fixing your weight gain situation must be just as
multi-faceted as the cause, starting first with attitude,” says Jordan
Rubin, CEO of Garden of Life and author of books such as
Perfect Weight
America,
The Maker’s Diet, and
Restoring Your Digestive Health.
“To overcome this challenge, you’ve got to understand
two vital thoughts. The first key is accepting that carrying extra
pounds is about far more than appearance. It compromises your health and
affects every aspect of how you live your life. The second is fighting
this war on multiple battlefields. You’ve got to change your attitude,
your thinking process, your food intake, your exercise, and possibly
even wage a war against your body’s own chemistry to get the scale
moving again in the right direction. You don’t need a small ‘tweak;’ you
need a revolution—a 180 degree change with a 360 degree plan!”

That’s why this New York Times best-selling author who
has revolutionized our way of living and eating with some of the biggest
selling supplements in history (e.g., Primal Defense, Perfect Food, and
Oceans 3, to name a few) formulated
Diet 360 to help wage the
asymmetrical war against excess weight gain—and to finally win the
battle of the bulge. “Diet 360 provides a comprehensive and holistic
approach in helping you reach your weight loss and total health goals,”
Jordan says.
Ashwagandha
Besides weight loss, the formula offers terrific
overall health benefits. For instance, if you haven’t gotten to know
Ashwagandha, you should.
This wonderful herb from India works to bolster the
body’s stress response, which helps reduce the stress hormone cortisol.
As people become stressed, their responses can be varied. Things like
skipping meals, binge eating, carb craving, stress-related fatigue, mood
swings and occasional sleeplessness are common. By inhibiting stress
responses, Ashwagandha supports healthy weight management. It is a very
powerful herb for bringing serenity, and a good blend will work almost
immediately to elevate your mood. (We think of this herb as being in the
same realm as, for example, holy basil, also a mood elevator, but
different with a slightly more global effect on more total body organs.)
Blueberry Leaf and Bayberry Shrub
The combination of blueberry leaf and bayberry bark
extracts are clinically studied ingredients. Where Ashwagandha extract
works to reduce cortisol and stress, the blueberry leaf and bayberry
bark work to reduce the negative impact of foods that dump sugar into
your system. If you eat a high amount of carbs and sugar, there will be
a lot of glucose in the bloodstream. The longer glucose is in the
bloodstream, the more likely that the body will try to get rid of it
another way. The longer insulin touches glucose, the more likely it will
convert that glucose into fatty acids. The fat created in the process
may manifest itself as new fat cells or increase the size of existing
fat cells. Maintaining blood sugar levels (already in the normal range)
may ultimately lead to slower fat cell production.
In clinical studies, blueberry leaf and bayberry bark
were shown to help maintain already normal blood sugar levels for
healthy glycemic response. These ingredients did so by expediting
glucose from the bloodstream into fat and muscle cells. By advancing the
movement of glucose quickly into the cells, glucose cannot be converted
efficiently into fat by the insulin.
Fucoxanthin and Slim Pure
While fat has many important functions in the body,
it’s best to think of fat as an energy source. If you go on a diet and
reduce the amount of calories you consume, your body will call on the
excess fat stores in your body to provide energy. If you add exercise to
the equation, more energy is required and more fat will be used. So you
need to do the treadmill, get out and run, or do something to boost your
metabolism. Meditation can help as well, as can infrared saunas.
But you don’t want to leave the miracle of brown
seaweed out of the equation, either. One of the key ingredients in
Diet
360 is fucoxanthin.
Fucoxanthin goes to work within the fat cells, where
it has the ability to increase the energy expenditure of the cell. This
increased metabolism aids the body in burning calories, which is one of
the goals of any weight loss program.
Unlike many other ingredients that boost metabolism,
fucoxanthin does so without stimulating the central nervous system, a
common side effect of many weight loss supplements.
A clinically studied decaffeinated green coffee
extract called SlimPure is a key ingredient in Diet 360 and was shown to
significantly increase the ratio of muscle mass to fat mass. As a
result, 50 participants with a body mass index of 25 or higher, both men
and women, ranging in age from 19 to 75, took SlimPure, lost an average
of 10.9 pounds over 60 days versus 5.4 pounds for the placebo group.
Though individual results vary, that is twice the weight loss over the
placebo group.
True Diet Protection
SlimPure, together with fucoxanthin, is potent, but
the addition of Ashwagandha, blueberry and bayberry allows your body to
effectively counterattack and come out ahead with greater metabolism and
stress protection. This is not an easy war, but it will be when you
begin to exercise, eat right, and take the correct supplements.
Diet 360
by Garden of Life is the logical choice to attack your weight loss goals
from multiple angles in the asymmetrical battle against obesity.
Note from Christine:
In addition to Diet 360, I also suggest using the
Vitamin Code Perfect Weight multivitamin formula by Garden of Life for
additional nutritional support with your weight loss goals.
