I will share one of my secrets to easily losing weight and maintaining a healthy one. I have a pretty HIGH FAT diet. OMG, I thought fat makes you FAT, you might say. Nope, not true. Plus consuming right types of fat can help you lose. Example, peanuts have fiber, fat, and protein in a combination that fulls you up, increases your metabolism and does not cause your levels of insulin to increase whatsoever. Insulin is a fat promoting/storing hormone and you must regulate the secretion of this hormone to lose weight. I use nuts to replace fat-making sweet snacks I might consume (even if they are made with healthy sweeteners). Nuts are a big part of my eating regimen and they fill me up often for hours so I cannot eat anything else. Most of the fats I consume are tree nuts. Pistachios, almonds, macadamia nuts and the like. Studies have shown that people who consume a lot of tree nuts actually have lower BMIs. Another study showed that people who consume flaxseed and flax oil for example actually had lower BMIs than those who did not.
Most people struggle to lose weight because they are consuming bad fats. These bad fats cause inflammation and insulin resistance which both lead to obesity. Also how we consume many fats can also play a role in whether they makes us pack on pounds or lose them. Many of us are using the wrong types of fats to prepare our food with. When you schedule a consultation with me or join my results driven and dynamic weight loss program, I will share what good fats you need to consume and what fats are suitable to use for cooking. Having both of that information will greatly help you achieve your weight loss goals. You can schedule a consultation and gain this information by clicking here, Weight Consultation

Vitamin D: The Most Powerful Substance for A Healthy Immune System
Immunomodulators are substances which create a healthy functioning immune system and balance and regulate your immune system. There are two problems with people when it comes to their immune system. First, some people's immune systems do not work! Thereby they get sick, become susceptible to infectious disease and conditions like candida become a problem. The other problem is that people have an overactive immune system when causes autoimmune illnesses like lupus, cancer, and multiple sclerosis. Autoimmune disease are situations where the body begins to attacks itself and you do not want to have a situation like that.
That is where immunomodulators save the day. If you have an overactive or overreeactive immune system, immunomodulators suppress it. If you have an underactive or underreactive immune system, then immunomodulators stimulate it. These natural immunomodulators work based on what your body needs. If it needs to be stimulated, it will do so. If it needs to suppressed, it will do that too. Now you might ask where are these immnunomodulating substances and where can I get them. Well the most powerful one is Vitamin D and you can get that completely for FREE by getting sunlight exposure. With adequate amounts of Vitamin D, you do not get infectious diseases or you greatly reduce your risk of getting them. Vitamin D also actually been shown to prevent flus which would include the swine flu. You also greatly reduce your risk of getting inflammatory diseases like arthritis or autoimmune ailments like multiple sclerosis. This is all because of Vitamin D's role as a immunomodulator and as I mentioned earlier, it is the most powerful one to take or have an sufficiency of. Having a sufficiency of Vitamin D is the basis of having a healthy functioning immune system.
Remember it is not about having a strong immune system because a strong immune system can give your cancer or multiple sclerosis. You want a healthy functioning immune system. Having Vitamin D is the foundation for having a healthy immune system. Herbs like garlic and echinacea are great for helping the immune system but those usually necessary only when the immune system has been comprised at some level. Echinacea and garlic are not the foundation for a healthy immune system. Vitamin D is not only vital for a healthy functioning immune system; it is also vital for good health as Vitamin D has been proven to prevent most of the degenerative diseases that plague many Americans including diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis and breast, colon, and prostate cancer.
There also other beneficial immunomodulating herbs that work wonderfully and I will detail that in a future e-book on having a healthy immune system. For now, I have a dynamic recording called the "Importance of Sunlight Exposure and Vitamin D" that teaches you how to get adequate amounts of Vitamin D. This recording tells you when to get Vitamin D and the different times racial groups should spend in the sun each day. I also give you information on what to do about getting Vitamin D if you live in northern regions of the country where Vitamin D production is lower naturally due to a lack of sunshine and the sun's rays not adequately reaching areas further from the equator. I also discuss how to properly supplement with Vitamin D if you decide to go that route. I also include information on why you need not fear the sun. That recording is on sale for over 40 Percent off until September 22nd. You can order that recording by clicking here.
