Obesity in American is on the rampage, and the main reason is that people eat more food than the body needs says Dr. Anju Mather. People who want to lose weight and keep it off using a VLCD (very low calorie diet) need to find out more about it.
If you look at aging theories, one aging theory is that if you consume more calories than what the body needs the body actually ages faster. If you reverse that, you’ll find that a low-caloric diet prolongs a lifespan of an individual. A study was done on rats, one group was fed fewer calories as part of their regular diet, and the other was fed considerably more. Those with a low-caloric diet had a longer lifespan, about one and a half times longer than the regular lifespan of rats.
Theory behind the Diet
The theory of a VLCD, or Very Low Calorie Diet, predicates itself on not consuming more calories than the body needs. The Slim and Trim Protocol involves very low caloric diet. The reason we do that is because the hCG hormone, which is a cornerstone of the protocol, itself is based on converting body fat into energy. In other words, you are consuming your own fat for energy, so you do not need to eat so much food.
Research in the 1960s by Dr. ATW Simeon, the founder of the hCG Diet, pointed to the fact that we do not need more than 500 calories a day. That’s because while being on daily hCG injections, one pound of fat can work itself into 3,000 calories. So you do the math: with these 3,000 calories, you do not need more than 500 calories.
Calories with no Nutrition
A typical American diet involves eating enough to feed two people. Super-size is the order of the day. Food is cheap, so fast food places offer vast quantities. But most of this food is merely empty calories, with no nutritional content. It does however contain toxins, which are stored in the fat of the body. Many Americans eat more than 5,000 calories a day.
So a very low caloric diet combined with a hormone shot breaks up the fat in the body and coverts it into energy, with no negative side effects. It only works in conjunction with the hormone shot. If you only do the low caloric diet it is called starvation, as you do not have the energy you need to perform the normal physiological functions of the body.
By itself, a low caloric diet will not work as it breaks down the structural fat and it breaks down the proteins of the body first. Structural fat and protein in muscle is needed by the body to operate.
But a very low calorie diet with hCG hormone injections causes the body to break down stored fat, and thus lose weight. Dr. Mather has now made this program available to all patients at Angel Longevity Medical Center and has had many successes.
