so I’m not sure if you saw this in the

news but Weight Watchers is getting

crushed by the ketogenic diet so last

week the stocks from Weight Watchers

dropped 30% and Oprah one of the largest

stockholders I think she has like

between eight and ten percent of that

company lost last Tuesday roughly around

thirty million dollars so keto right now

is exploding it’s a global shift more

and more people are trying to ketogenic

diet why because it works so Weight

Watchers right now is making a very

fatal mistake

they’re assuming that keto is the next

fad when it’s not a fad okay even

slimfast for example it’s developing

keto friendly snacks they’re not healthy

they’re loaded with mannitol and other

hidden sugars but they are jumping on

the bandwagon now why is keto not a fad

well number one it works number two it

completely gets rid of your hunger

especially when you’re doing it within a

minute fasting so it’s sustainable so

the people that oppose keto know that it

works and the strategy that they’re

working now is they’re basically going

to put doubt in your mind they’re gonna

say well there’s no long-term studies

what if it’s dangerous long-term yes it

works short-term but what about

long-term so the pool little doubt in

your mind so maybe you might not try it

but people are trying it I mean you

should just look on my website I’m gonna

put a link down below and look at all

the success stories these are from real

people

there’s no photoshopping we get like 10

amazing success stories every single day

and read those it’s very very exciting

keto is not just for weight loss it’s

about getting your body healthy

so Weight Watchers is based on a point

system that’s correlated with calories

it’s all about portion control they’re

using the same model calories in equals

calories out and you always hear this

from certain people in the scientific

community where well it’s just simple

logic you know if you eat less calories

you’ll actually lose weight you know

that’s simple these researchers or these

people that have PhDs have never been in

clinical practice if you were in

practice like me for 29 years working

one-on-one with tens

thousands of people you’re gonna run

into a lot of people who do the low

calorie thing and they don’t get results

I worked with many many people that were

consuming eight to nine hundred calories

sometimes even less that lose no weight

and I’m talking about people that are

exercising on a daily basis they’re not

losing weight so that’s one topic that a

lot of these guys omit they don’t like

to talk about so they have a lot of

fixed ideas and they have confusions

about the endocrine system and how the

endocrine system and hormones influence

the macronutrients carbohydrates

proteins and fat I always like to asking

this one question what are the fat

burning hormones and what are the fat

storing hormones and then look at you

kind of glazed over late they don’t have

a clue there are three fat storing or

making hormones you have cortisol you

have insulin and you have estrogen I

mean even take the condition called

Cushing’s syndrome with excessive

cortisol they have the big belly

estrogen dominance you’re gonna have hip

weight excessive insulin like in

diabetes type 2 you’re always gonna see

the person overweight type 1 not enough

insulin they’re gonna lose weight

eventually and then you have the fat

burning hormones you have growth hormone

igf-1 I were hormones and I think about

a condition like hyperthyroidism where

you have too many thyroid hormones

you’re gonna see excessive weight loss

so anytime you run into these people

that have these fixed ideas about

calories and calories out just ask them

about the fat burning hormones you have

to differentiate the different calories

different food calories are influenced

by different hormones one of the claims

that we Watchers make is that you can

eat real food okay like what does that

mean real food like normal food regular

food what they’re really telling you is

that you can eat unhealthy food you can

pretty much eat what you want just make

sure you eat less of it you can have

everyday foods food real people in the

real world eat so you’re describing real

people an average person who is

overweight usually and they have insulin

resistance and they’re eating real food

they’re eating

food unhealthy food so you’re gonna

actually give the person the same food

that they’re eating okay maybe in just

lesser amounts thinking that they’re

gonna actually be skinnier it’s not

going to work

in fact I pulled up from their website

some of the foods that they sell and

this is the pancake mix enriched flour

with all these synthetic vitamins using

corn fiber sugar brown sugar okay and a

bunch of other ingredients I can’t even

pronounce all right here’s another one a

chocolate brownie chocolate flavored

coating sugar

okay so there’s sugar maltitol which is

a sugar alcohol but it has a huge impact

on your blood Sugar’s so even though

it’s the so called keto friendly it’s

not really friendly corn syrup soy

protein isolate

that’s GMO ground corn whole wheat flour

poly dextrose that’s a synthetic sugar

sugar brown sugar rice flour fructose

and modified soy protein and soybean oil

so they’re using unhealthy ingredients

and just a lesser amount it’s not going

to work because you can’t help a person

you can’t solve a problem with the wrong

solution especially if you’re doing a

diet that leaves you hungry all the time

and this is why their stalks are

crashing and this is why keto is going

to be around for a very long time

because it’s not a fad and it does work
