Whenever I go to the grocery store, I always have to shake my head at how deceptive so many food labels are... no wonder so many people are confused as to what foods are healthy and which are not. 

In today's article, I show you 3 examples of foods that have been manipulated from their natural state and transformed into processed "counterfeit" foods.  Shockingly, the food manufacturers try to claim that these foods are "healthier" than the original natural version.  Don't be fooled!

  3 grocery store "counterfeit" foods that are deceptive


Last thing for today:

If you haven't done so yet, make sure to try out the new Prograde Fusion protein/fiber tasty drink concoction that helps to satisfy your appetite and control cravings between meals.

I'm excited about this new product, and the origin of the idea came from when I was doing a cutting cycle and needed something to control my appetite mid-day between meals and late night when the cravings might creep in.  So I talked to my boys at PG about maybe producing something like this... and a year later, voila!

PG Fusion has 24 grams of protein, 3 grams of fiber, and only 2 grams of sugar (and ZERO artificial sweeteners)... but it tastes like a delicious fruity drink. 

Heck it might sound crazy, but the next time I'm having cocktails with friends, I might try a Fusion mixed with vodka or rum...

I'm not recommending alcohol obviously, but if I'm hanging out with friends and going to have a cocktail anyway (let's face it, most of us aren't willing to give up alcohol entirely), we might as well get 24 grams of protein and 3 grams of fiber with it too!

By the way, on this topic, here is an article I did that explains how to stay lean and healthy if you don't want to entirely give up alcohol.

the 3D Metabolic exercise method for flat abs

============================================


I've got a special Q&A piece for you today that shows you all about a new exercise technique called "3D Metabolic Exercise" from my good buddy, Dr. Kareem.

**The 3D Metabolic exercise method for flat abs**


Mike:  Hey Dr. K!  Most of my readers come to me
because they want an honest source on health
and fitness... aka "The Truth" -

A couple weeks ago, I shared with everyone why I think your
Metabolic Abs program is one of the most cutting-edge
and effective fat loss workouts out there, but I'm not sure
everyone is clear about your method.  What is 3D metabolic
exercise and why does it work so well?


Dr. Kareem:  Awesome to be here, Mike.  Thanks for having me.

Before you fully understand what 3D Metabolic Exercise is, let's
just take a peek at the problem that this method was designed to solve:

Most workout programs either take too long to do, require a gym membership,
or recommend unrealistic diet expectations to help you get six pack abs.  By
definition, if you can't follow something, it can't work.

3D Exercise is basically the fastest way to lose fat and build six pack abs.  By
working your body in real-life ways, in all directions at once, you are simulating
the same demands that take place in daily living, but with greater resistance and
intensity.  This allows the carryover effect from exercise to be that much greater.

Metabolic exercise is a strategic balance between your three energy systems in
your body.  You have your ATP-PC energy system, Anaerobic energy system,
and Aerobic energy system.  When you work all three for a specific amount of
time/workout, and you work them in a specific sequence, you get much better results.

Finally, we combine 3D movement and our metabolic protocols with ‘Neuro Fat Loss'
techniques.  Basically, we reposition your body for better alignment of your joints and
muscles.  In turn, your posture improves, but so does your strength.  With a better
muscle strength to length ratio, your body moves more fluidly and accepts muscle
growth more readily.

  
Mike:  Can your 3D Exercise method be done at home and if so,
how much equipment is required?


Dr. Kareem:  These workouts can absolutely be done at home.  That's
where I do them... or when I'm traveling, in a hotel room or hotel gym.
There are a few pieces of equipment I use in the videos, but I also
provide you with household equipment suggestions if you're working
out in your home and need some advice there.

I have clients who do just the bodyweight version of every exercise and
they get GREAT results.  I find that I do this if I'm in a hotel room and
don't have a great place to exercise.  It's my ten minute back up plan
when I'm in a pinch, because it consistently gets me some of the best
results out of anything I do, no matter how long.

If you don't have a lot of time, I totally get it.  I've been there too.

Each workout is 10 minutes.  There are 5, meaning that you will exercise
5 days/week for 10 minutes/workout.  That's a total of 50 minutes of
workouts per week.  Less than one hour!


Mike:  10 minutes a day is fast.  That's one of my favorite aspects about
Metabolic Abs training, is the speed.  Sometimes you just want to grab
a really quick workout and know it's super effective.


Dr. Kareem:  Thanks Mike!  I want to bring up another point... A lot of
older adults out there are afraid to participate in an exercise program
that is intense.  Age alone isn't a reason not to do an intense fat loss
program, but it's always wise to check with your doctor before starting
an exercise program if you have any conditions that would warrant
his/her approval or if this is your first time exercising.

For your information, my current oldest client in Ab Strength Guide is
an 84 year old woman.  My youngest is an 8 year old boy, who does
bodyweight only.  It doesn't matter - they're both getting great results.

The key is that you choose an exercise program that is adjustable by
intensity, duration, and range of motion.  Then, you simply work to
progress all the time.  Once you are able to hit a certain level of intensity,
your results show up nearly instantly.  It's really funny how we hit a
"tipping point" with so many things in life, ya know?


Mike:  Totally.  I think the same thing is true with nutrition.  A lot of
people don't have a clue how to start eating healthy and clean until
they do.  It takes a few days or weeks to find where you can get the
best deals on everything, but then you're all set.... When you look
back, it's hard to imagine eating any other way.  ...all the while,
you're just getting leaner the whole time.

That said, one thing that caught my attention that you just said was
that you've created a workout method where your client can self-adjust
the level?


Dr. Kareem:  Now, that's the really cool aspect of Metabolic Abs Training.
In the beginning, just learn the movements and how to ‘feel' an exercise in
the right place.  This, alone, will produce an outstanding result if you're
just starting out, especially because of how dynamic each movement is.
Your body will naturally balance out, and fat will shed right off once
your body is in balance.

As you become more experienced, or if that's where you are right now,
your intensity increases, and the results do as well.  At my record lowest
bodyfat of 7.5%, I was using these workouts on a regular basis, b/c I can
depend on them to get me insane results every time.


Mike:  Shifting focus, completely, there's something really cool
I'd like to share with you:

In addition to getting you six pack abs, these workouts were designed
to reduce joint pain if you have any.  That's one of the reasons that
I love referring you to the doc.


Dr. Kareem:  Thanks Mike.  You know I consider you a mentor to all
of us with your exercise program design for fat loss.  That said, I used
these exact workouts in my own personal transformation.

I used to have extremely severe pain in most joints of my body before
I got leaner and in better shape.  I don't have great genes, but
I'm a big believer in taking advantage of your body's full potential.
Metabolic Abs Training will help you do that.


Mike:  It certainly will.  I know I get a crazy sweat when we work out
together.  It's been a lot of fun... you can definitely see changes
going on all the time.  It's really cool how we just come up
with stuff back and forth.  I remember not too long ago we
were talking about how men and women are still confused
about exercising for fat loss - would you mind explaining
this in your own terms for everybody?


Dr. Kareem:  Sure, I'd be happy to.  A solid fat loss workout is
proven to work with both genders.  Here's the deal, as I know
you explained in an article before, we are all human beings.
Our bodies secrete different amounts of testosterone and estrogen,
depending on whether we are male or female, but we both have...
well, both.

If anything, it stands to argue that a woman who wants to lose fat
will have to build a little bit of muscle first if she doesn't have a
whole lot of meat on her body.  Otherwise, she'll never raise her
metabolism.  I know you've talked about this before, but it's your
muscle to fat ratio that ultimately dictates your metabolism.


Mike:  Thanks for the interview Dr. K!  It's always great chatting
with you about health and fitness.  Make sure to check out this
special video presentation Dr. K put up for you:

If you listen to some clueless news reporters, you would think that being out in the sun without sunscreen on for even just 1 minute is going to instantly give you cancer and lead to your death.  Yet, for eons, our ancestors spent at least 10x more time out in the sun than the average person in the modern world.

And more info is surfacing lately about possible health risks with heavy use of sunscreens (carcinogenic, estrogenic effects).  In fact, did you know that underexposure to the sun is as big of a health threat as overexposure to the sun?  It's true...

Read today's article to see the gory details on this...

The TRUTH about sun exposure and sunscreens


I have another good article for you below that shows a unique way to ingest a natural nutrient that gives you "internal sun protection"...

what about lecithin, dextrose, maltodextrin?

=============================================

=============================================


After the announcement yesterday about the new tasty protein/fiber drink mix, Prograde Fusion, I had some friends ask me why I would personally drink something that has dextrose, maltodextrin, and lecithin in it when I'm so strict about sugars and soy products.

Good question, and a fairly easy answer too...

First of all, let's talk about the dextrose.  Yes, this is basically just sugar, and most of the time, I try to avoid refined sugar.  However, the amount of sugar in this new Prograde Fusion drink mix is only 2 grams per serving, which is pretty miniscule.  Remember that you could easily down about 30-40 grams of sugar in some of the popular "sports drinks", so 2 grams is basically negligible.

Plus, when you combine only 2 grams of sugar with 24 grams of protein and 3 grams of fiber, it makes that 2 grams of sugar completely a non-issue, and will have almost ZERO effect on blood sugar.  

Also, although I may be extremely strict about avoiding some things such as artificial trans fats, I don't believe in being super-militant about a couple grams of sugar or tiny amounts of things I might normally avoid.  Sure, something that contains 40 grams of sugar I might save for a cheat day, but tiny amounts like 2 grams is nothing to worry about.

Same thing goes for the maltodextrin... yes, it's a processed carbohydrate and will effect blood sugar and insulin response, but not 1 gram!  In fact, some post-workout shakes can have 50 grams or more of maltodextrin or similar fast acting carbs, which after a workout, has benefits and helps to speed nutrients into the muscle cells for recovery.

So while I might sometimes choose post workout drinks that contain high amounts of maltodextrin, the purpose of the Prograde Fusion drink mix is NOT for post workout, but rather for appetite control and amino acid balance between meals or any time that you need to control cravings, and 1 gram of maltodextrin is nothing to worry about.

As for lecithin... yes, it's derived from soy, and as you know, I'm fairly anti-soy in most cases.  But that's mostly referring to heavily refined soybean oils or highly processed soy proteins (and other soy junk foods like soy milk), both of which I recommend staying away from as the article above explains.

But when it comes to tiny amounts of lecithin, it's not something I'm concerned about, and may even have benefits.  This article here shows why added lecithin is nothing to worry about, unless you're strongly allergic to all soy derivatives.

Again, with all 3 of these ingredients (lecithin, dextrose, maltodextrin), if the amounts are miniscule, such as in Prograde Fusion protein/fiber drink mix, this is nothing I would worry about. 

Remember that this week is your chance to try out the tasty new PG Fusion as they have a 10% off sale on the whole store to celebrate the release of this new product.

Enjoy!

my protein/fiber trick that kills cravings

=============================================

If you've read my Fat-Burning Kitchen ebook, then you know that one of the dozen or so tricks that I used during my 23-day cutting cycle was to use a special protein/fiber drink concoction during specific times of the day to control cravings, preserve lean muscle, and keep my metabolism high. 

Here's an excerpt from the book that describes this:

"When you're doing an accelerated fat burning cycle, protein and fiber are easily 2 of the
most important things that you need adequate amounts. Both of them help you to keep
hunger under control, and a high protein intake during the cutting cycle can help to prevent
catabolism, so you don't lose lean muscle.

This was another of my secret weapons that I used each day... what I did was concoct my
own protein/fiber drink mixes and have 1 drink each day at a time when I needed to control
hunger but didn't want or didn't have time for a full meal. I either used these drinks in the
afternoon on non-training days to keep satisfied or I used them at night to keep appetite
under control and get an extra dose of fiber and protein."


When I wrote this section, I was at the time buying the protein and fiber ingredients separately and mixing them myself each day.  My good friend Jayson Hunter, who is head of R&D for Prograde Nutrition, told me to tell them what I was looking for and he could probably formulate something exactly like what I was looking for, but with an even better taste.

So I told Jayson that this was what I was looking for:

1.  A drink that has about 20-25 grams of protein per serving.
2.  This drink should also have at least 3-4 grams of fiber per serving
3.  And it should also be lightly sweetened with stevia (no artificial sweeteners!), and very little sugar, if any.

Well, over a year later, Jayson and Prograde just recently introduced the brand new Prograde Fusion, the exact type of protein/fiber drink that I was asking for.

PG Fusion contains a whopping 24 grams of protein per serving, 3 grams of fiber, and only 2 grams of sugar!  Only 145 calories total per serving, most of which comes from the protein!  And it tastes like a delicious sports drink but without all of the crappy added sugars that most sports drinks have.

These are the 2 main times when I think this drink is PERFECT:

1.  In the middle of the afternoon to hold off your appetite and cravings until dinner, but still give you an added jolt of protein and fiber to help keep your metabolism burning high.

2.  Late night, just when those late night cravings start to come on and you want to grab some junk food.  But instead, just grab this protein/fiber drink and your cravings will go away without doing any damage to your waist. 

Since this product was just released last week, Prograde is having a 10% off sale on the entire store to celebrate the release of this new product.  Give it a try and see what you think! 

Check out the new Fusion protein/fiber tasty drink here  (and save 10%)


This is probably my favorite new product and very handy to help quell those cravings at key times throughout the day...   And MUCH healthier than those crappy sugar-laden sports drinks!

I've got a new article for you today from my friend and fat loss expert Joel Marion about a legitimate way that you can burn a pound of pure fat in 1 day.

First, as a reminder, if you missed the announcement about Joel's exciting new 25-day Xtreme Fat Loss program, and the special deal he has going which ends Thursday... check it out here:

http://www.xtremefatburningdiet.com/

Important Update:  If you're still on the fence about picking up a copy of this program, Joel has just decided to add YET another killer bonus for you... it's a new program he's calling, "the FASTEST Fat Loss Week EVER", and this is designed to be used intermittently for fast fat loss results, but NOT all the time.

Ok, here's Joel's article:

How To Burn A Pound Of Pure Fat In One Day 
by Joel Marion - CISSN, NSCA-CPT

Enjoy!

Are you ready to get in crazy shape for summer? So that people are admiring YOUR body at the beaches, pools, and backyard parties this summer!

If you're motivated and ready to get in KILLER shape, I've got a 25-day challenge for you...

You're not LAZY, right? Good. Then here we go...

We've got a 25-day challenge for you to lose crazy amounts of body fat in 3 1/2 weeks (but you've got to be ready to follow this system to the letter)...

Ready?

Go to the site below to see the special deal that my fitness buddy Joel Marion has for you... it's a new program involving "extreme fat loss"... but this deal only lasts for the next 3 days:

--> http://www.XtremeFatBurningDiet.com


Several IMPORTANT things you should be aware of:

1. This program is absolutely NOT for everyone!

While Joel's new system IS all about how to lose fat FAST (up to 25 pounds in 25 days fast), it ISN'T a "quick fix", magic-bullet solution.

Instead, it's a highly strategic system that incorporates some rather advanced strategies like cheat days, fast days, depletion days, and strategically timed exercise in the most ideal combination to yield the fastest possible result.

And believe it or not, he's even included one little-known, but extremely effective method on Day 5 of the program that will actually help you GAIN a couple pounds of firm, lean calorie-burning muscle as you rapidly lose fat. Pretty nuts.

Still, the truth remains: this is a somewhat "intense" system and as such will require your full dedication and effort over a short 25 day period--if you're not able to go 100% for 3 and a half weeks, this program simply isn't for you.

That said, if you're willing to put the work in and follow the program to the letter, you can expect to see some pretty remarkable progress in a relatively short period of time.

http://www.XtremeFatBurningDiet.com <----Go on and get started!


2. To celebrate the "Official Release" of the Xtreme Fat Loss Diet, Joel is running a $30-OFF pre-sale on the entire system until midnight on Thursday.


3. VERY IMPORTANT (TODAY ONLY) - While the $30 OFF debut sale will be available through Thursday, there is a super cool $397 Value FAST ACTION BONUS for Day 1 orders ONLY.

The Bonus - If you order today (and today only), you will be given access to a LIVE 120-minute Fat Loss All-Star Coaching session where Joel Marion, John Romaniello (Final Phase Fat Loss), and Dr. Kareem Samhouri (Double Edged Fat Loss) will ALL be on the line to answer your personal fat loss questions. This type of direct coaching from 3 industry experts all at once is not available anywhere else at any price, but if you pick up the Xtreme Fat Loss Diet TODAY, it's yours *FREE*.

http://www.XtremeFatBurningDiet.com <------- $30 off & your $397 value Fast Action Bonus (today only)


btw, I almost forgot to mention, every 5th day on this program involves a fun cheat day!

Have fun!

If you read a lot of my newsletters, you might get the impression that I'm anti-carbohydrates or something along those lines.  And while it's true that I believe as a society we eat far too much grain-based foods, you know I also believe in moderation and balance, and that everything has a purpose.

I also tend to favor potatoes and sweet potatoes as healthier carbohydrate sources vs grains (mainly due to the gluten issue as well as other anti-nutrients found in some grains)

As you'll see in the article below, I talk about the TRUTH about so-called "white foods", including your beloved POTATOES!

I've got 2 new and important articles for you today about your metabolism.

In the first article today, my colleague Tom Venuto (I highly respect Tom's expertise) explores the very REAL science behind what's been termed "metabolic damage".  

He talks about what causes "metabolic damage".  And he also shows 7 strategies to essentially "repair" that metabolic damage.

Do you have "metabolic damage"? <-- great article + 7 strategies to fix the damage


Metabolism Article #2:

This article explores whether our metabolisms actually "slow down" as we get older.  As you'll see, it doesn't have to happen!  And what foods can we eat that actually ramp-up your metabolism?  Read on and see...

A "slow metabolism" and foods that ramp-up your metabolic rate


Have fun revving up your metabolism!

does "empty-stomach" exercise work?

=============================================


With my new blog post yesterday, I realized that I need to clarify my opinion on morning "empty-stomach" exercise.

If you don't know, the theory on morning empty stomach cardio is that since you're in a fasted state and don't have immediate carbs in your system, your body will rely more heavily on bodyfat for fuel during the workout, and you'll burn more bodyfat.  Nice in theory (and to be honest, does work for some people), but as you'll see below, it didn't work for me, and others I know too that have tried it.

As you probably know if you've read my Truth about Six Pack Abs ebook, one of the main problems I've had with morning "empty stomach" exercise, is that in a lot of people, it tends to make you lose lean muscle, which can lower your metabolic rate.

In fact, when I tested morning exercise on an empty stomach in the past, I ended up losing strength and a little bit of muscle after a couple weeks (despite the fact I was still weight training on separate workouts).  I subsequently gained fat quicker due to a reduction in my metabolic rate after that muscle loss.

I found a fix to that problem when I re-tested morning empty stomach exercise a few months ago.  What I did this time was use BCAA's immediately upon waking before the exercise, which has been proven to help prevent the muscle catabolism that would occur otherwise.

However, there was still a problem... I still would have ZERO energy to do anything intense in this type of empty stomach workout.  Walking maybe...but that's about it.  I prefer high intensity exercise and believe more strongly in the benefits of really challenging your body with intense exercise.  That's why I love to do wind sprints!

For me, I just don't have the energy to anything intense on an empty stomach in the morning, so that's why I tested the little drink concoction that I talked about in yesterday's post. 

That little drink concoction has totally changed the game, and I've been having TONS of energy and feeling great during my morning wind sprints... plus, as I mentioned, I've actually noticed more definition in the lower abs just doing these morning wind sprints every day for a week straight!

Side note:  For the last couple of months, I've been using those fancy new Vibram 5-Fingers "barefoot" shoes (they look more like socks than shoes) for all of my gym workouts and also my wind sprints.  My physical therapist friends swear by these, and tell me that they are more natural for your feet for squats, deadlifts and other gym exercises, and help reduce risk for injuries.

My squats and deadlifts have felt awesome since I started using these 5-Finger shoes!  My numbers have been going up like crazy.  I even worked my max deadlift from 355 to 405 lbs in the last 3 months!

Also, the 5 Fingers feel perfect for sprints... I've always thought that barefoot sprinting felt more natural compared to running shoes, but I never wanted to sprint barefoot on a field for fear of cutting my feet on a rock or something.  But with these 5-Fingers shoes, you get the feel of barefoot sprinting, but with a layer of rubber protection between your feet and the ground.

Overall, they felt super powerful for the wind sprints and I'm never going back to running shoes again!

Instead of an in-depth article today, I just wanted to share a few fitness techniques I've been using myself lately, and my new "morning ritual" which has been getting killer results! 

In fact, just doing this morning ritual for the last 6-7 mornings in a row, I can already see that my lower abs are getting more defined by the day (indicating that this is lowering my bodyfat % a bit more).

This involves some exercise AND nutrition tricks, so read the whole blog post...
