Summary:
"Discover the diet sensation that will help you lose seven pounds in seven days while experiencing lasting energy and eating all the foods you love. Over the past few years, fasting has become a popular diet option. Studies show that fasting - whether through moderate calorie restriction every day or the more severe but less frequent intermittent fasting - can help people lose about thirteen to fourteen pounds in six months and reduce their risk of developing disease. When we fast, our body's energy stores activate regulatory enzymes called sirtuins and many positive changes ensue. Fat storage is switched off, and our body stops its normal growth processes and goes into "survival" mode. Fat burning is stimulated and the genes involved in the repair and rejuvenation of our cells are turned on - which all results in weight loss and improved resistance to disease. If not done correctly, fasting can lead to hunger, irritability, fatigue, and loss of muscle. Enter sirtfoods: a newly discovered group of foods that is revolutionizing healthy eating. The top ten sirtfoods are Green Tea, Dark chocolate (that is at least 85 per cent cocoa), Apples, Citrus fruits, Parsley, Trmeric, Kale and Blueberries. Sirtfoods are particularly rich in special nutrients that help us activate the same skinny genes in our bodies that fasting triggers. The sirtfood diet helps you effectively lose weight and improve your resistance to disease, while still giving you incredible energy and glowing health. Juicing is an indispensable part of the sirtfood diet. Includes the recipe for Sirtfood Green Juice, containing kale, arugula, parsley, celery, apple, ginger, lemon and macha powder. Adian Goggins is a pharmacist with a masters degree in nutritional medicine. Glen Matten also has a degree in nutritional medicine. He collaborates closely with medical doctors"--Provided by publisher.
