Definition of Obesity

Is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it may have an adverse effect on health, leading to reduced life expectancy and or increased health problems… Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measurement which compares weight and height and defines people as normal, overweight, obese A BMI of more than 20% over ideal weight is considered to be

• bese

The NIH suggests obesity is when a person is over 30 pounds over their ideal weight

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Overweight is a significant contributor to health problems

• Type 2 diabetes
• High blood pressure
• Stroke
• Heart attack
• Cancer Colon, prostate,

rectum

• Gallstones
• Osteoarthritis
• Sleep apnea
• Death

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Why ORAC?

Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity

It a way of measuring antioxidant capacities in biological samples The higher the ORAC number the greater the antioxidant capacity

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Raw unprocessed cocoa has the highest ORAC Rating (USDA)

FRUITS ORAC VEGETABLES ORAC Unprocessed Cocoa Powder 80,933 Garlic 5,346 Açai Berry, freeze-dried [a] 53,600 Peanuts, all types, raw 3,166 Dutched Chocolate Powder 40,200 Asparagus 2,150 Cranberries 9,584 Nuts, cashew nuts 1,948 Blueberries 6,552 Avocados 1,933 Plums 6,259 Kale [a] 1,770 Prunes [a] 5,770 Beets 1,767 Blackberries 5,347 Spinach, raw 1,515

Why Flavonoids

Flavonoids (previously called vit P)

• Are the pigment part of the plant which are

beneficial to the circulation

• Flavonoids help reduce allergens, swelling, viruses,

carcinogens, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, and may have the ability to reduce the fat cell inflammation

(Journal of Clinical Investigagtion, 107(2);135) (Journal of antimicrobial agents, 28(2);99-107)

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Why Polyphenols

Polyphenols as antioxidants

There are over 4000 polyphenols

• they can affect cell to cell signaling
• receptor sensitivity
• inflammatory enzyme activity
• or gene regulation

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

• This includes fat cells
• Polyphenols are anti-fat antioxidants
• They reduce fat cell growth,

communicate cell to cell to inhibit inflammatory cascades, normalize gene regulation and modulate receptor sensitivity

(Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2008.08.001)

Polyphenols are anti-inflammatory at the cellular level

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Polyphenols reduce inflammatory effects such as coronary artery disease, and wrinkled skin

(Flavonoids and heart disease, 312(7029), 1996) (British Journal of Pharmacology, 123(3)565, 1998)

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Free Radical Theory of Aging

The theory is that organisms age because cells accumulate free radical damage over time. This oxidative damage can be reduced using antioxidants which can limit the number of free radicals and the damage caused to the cells

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Fat cells can be free radicals

As they (Fat cells) accumulate free radical damage they become more resistant to weight loss

Polyphenols have an anti-inflammatory effect on the fat cells which may result in:

• Reduced fat cell storage
• Reduced fat cell signaling
• Reduced inflammatory responses that retain water
• Improved mobilization and breakdown of fat cells

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Fat can be mobilized and metabolized

• ut of the body using polyphenols

Quercetin is injected into fat cells where they shrink and leave, and dietary quercetin alleviates hepatic fat accumulation.

(Molecular Nutrition and Food Research, 2011)

Causes of Obesity

• Genetic
• Diet
• Sedentary

lifestyle

• Lack of sleep
• Malnutrition
• Dehydration
• Internal toxins
• Constipation
• Stress
• Inflammatory

response

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Weight loss is a Program, not a product!

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

ESSENCE of Weight Loss

E - Eat/drink correctly S - Sleep correctly (8 hours) S - Supplement your diet (shake and bake) E - Exercise regularly N - Neutralize intestinal toxins and germs C - Communicate regularly (health status, behavior) E - Eliminate Stress

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Causes of obesity

• Diet
• Exercise
• Behavior modification

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Eat / Drink

• Eating the wrong kinds
• f food
• Eating too fast
• Eating much
• Eating too many toxins
• Starving all day then

eating a large meal

• Eating too much fat,

carbohydrates, sugars

• Eating for emotional

reasons

• Eating socially
• Eating without a plan

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Dehydration promotes obesity

• When our body is 3% reduced in water it slows metabolism, and

and over-stores fat (1/2 gallon)

• A 1% reduction in water leads to dry mouth, headache, and

confusion, memory loss

• It takes 22 oz of water to wash out one oz of fat and if you are

dehydrated you will not burn the fat you deserve to burn

• 37% of people believe they are hungry when they are actually

thirsty (drink a glass of water then wait 20 minutes, if still hungry it was hunger)

• Children who are dehydrated regularly tend to be obese and not

grow as tall as they should have

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Sleep deprivation can cause weight gain

Sleeping rests the body and helps balance hormones Sleep deprivation causes hormone imbalances that trigger fat storage During sleep you can burn 3 pounds of fat Study: college aged kids were sleep deprived 4 hours a night for 7 nights

• All of them tested positive for diabetes
• It took two 12 hour nights of sleep to reverse

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Supplement

• 95% of Americans do not get sufficient nutrition

from the foods they eat

• Because their body feels malnourished it will

respond by storing fats more effectively

• Healthy meal replacements

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Bariatric Study Results

• Out of 50 succeeded
• The Average weight loss 31 pounds
• 100% kept it off for a full year

Polyphenols (antioxidants) in the cocoa reduces free radicals = fat

• Its like deflating fat cells one cookie

at a time

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Sedentary lifestyle

Exercise balances hormones

• apetite leptin, ghrelin
• blood sugar - aldosterone
• stress hormones - cortisol
• thyroid - master gland of all hormones
• anti inflammation, anti histamine
• fat storage hormones are balanced with exercise of 20

minutes three times a week

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Exercise burns fat, stimulates metabolism, increases energy, mobilizes euphoric hormones, and gives benefits for 18 hours

(Exercise Physiology, 2010)

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Toxins can cause obesity

Poisons, allergens, constipation can cause obesity

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Antibiotics cause obesity

• Since the 1950’s farmers have been using

antibiotics to fatten up livestock (nutrition 1954)

• Navy recruits that were given antibiotics

(pennicillin, tetracycline) gained 4.8 pounds over 7 weeks

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

In states with the heaviest use of antibiotics

• Highest rates of obesity: West Virginia, Kentucky,

Tennessee, Louisiana, and Alabama;

• Have the highest stroke rates
• Highest obesity rates
• Have the highest diabetes rates
• And highest heart attack rates

(CDC, Nov 25, 2011 Wired Magazine)

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

According to CDC data:

Antibiotics can cause increased obesity by killing the beneficial gut bacteria (probiotics)

(CDC Wired 2011)

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

The average child receives 20 courses of antibiotics by the time they reach 18 years of age

(New York University Langone Medical Center, 2011)

By killing the healthy bacteria in the gut it tricks our body into overeating

(Nature, 2011)

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

When antibiotics kill the good probiotic bacteria it results in a six fold increase in the hunger hormones that stimulate appetite

(Nature, 2011)

A 20% rise in leptin after a meal

• The appetite hormone ghrelin

skyrocketed 6 times higher…

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Antibiotics stimulate the appetite and result 18 months later in a sustained 5% fat gain

(Nature, 2011)

X

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Antibiotics make us fat while probiotics help us lose fat

A 2009 study found that 12 weeks of probiotics (lactobaccillus) daily reduced belly fat and body weight, and women that took acidophillus during pregnancy were less likely to develop abdominal obesity later

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Communication improves accountability and promotes long term behavior modification

Programs that include a weekly accounting for weight and diameters result in more consistent long term weight loss

• The optimal goal is losing 1.5 – 2 pounds of fat per
• week. And keeping it off for a year

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Stress causes obesity

Stress effects every cell in the body

• The body responds to stress by swelling, storing fats for

proection and reducing vital body functions

• Stress releases cortisol (stress hormone) which cause

the body to store more fat

• Stress down regulates, thyroid hormones, and promotes

worry, shock and digestive imbalances

• Oxidative stress damages the blood vessels and

triggers inflammation in fat cells

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Antioxidants reduce the cause of stress induces weight gain and promote an anti-inflammation, anti- aging, and balanced metabolism

The polyphenols found in raw cocoa are the finest quality and highest quantity of all natural anti oxidants

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Wellness System

Antioxidants from the raw cocoa help reduce the cause of obesity and fat gain at the cellular level

HIGH-ANTIOXIDANT

Reasons why weight loss programs fail

• Poor product
• Not a program
• Communicate with a

health coach (accountability)

• Not portable
• Taste bad

• Increases hormone

production responsible for

• vereating
• Damages blood vessels,

digestion and joints

• Damages the pancreas

(diabetes)

Ways to initiate a discussion about shake and bake

Sit down near someone and open the cookie…as your

• pening it say
• “Man, this is the best tasting weight loss cookie

I have ever eaten…I used to quit my weight loss programs because it was so difficult but this makes it easy. Healthy chocolate…I would have never believed it until I started losing fat. Scientific proof that chocolate can be healthy and promote weight loss, would you like a taste?”
