Cutting Calories Does More Than Help You Lose Weight
Millions of Americans start the New Year with a
resolution to lose weight. And for most people, this means
cutting calories to achieve this goal, but reducing weight is
not the only benefit of following a calorie-restricted
diet.
Researchers are finding that cutting calories can have many
other health-enhancing and age-defying benefits. Scientists
have been studying the effects of NUTRIENT-DENSE, low-calorie
diets for the last several years and have found some amazing
results.
One such study, published in 1997 in the Cancer Research
journal found that rats consuming a nutrient-dense, low-calorie
diet had reduced rates of cancers compared to the control
animals. Most recently, a study published in the journal of the
Federation of American Societiesfor Experimental Biology
(FASEB) in January 2003 found that calorie restriction
increases the amount of special proteins that protect the
nerves in the brain.
The decades of research in several animal species has found
that calorie restriction not only boosts life span and general
health, but also increased mental capacity. Studies such as
these show that metabolic adaptations occur when you follow a
nutrient-dense low-calorie diet. These biochemical changes have
the ability to improve immune system function, increase mental
capacity and many other benefits.
The key, however, is that the diets used in these studies are
NUTRIENT DENSE. Most people who "go on a diet" restrict
specific food groups and most diets do not provide the
nutrients the body needs to function.
A diet that is low in calories and still provides all the
nutrients the body needs can give your body the ammunition it
needs to support health and longevity. The enzyme diet meal
replacement shake provides a simple way to reduce your caloric
intake while still obtaining the essential nutrients your body
needs. The minerals, amino acids, enzymes, carbohydrates,
protein, fatty acids, fiber, phytonutrients and natural
vitamins help you achieve safe, efficient weight loss,
increased energy and overall improved health - with no drugs,
stimulants or synthetic ingredients.
