I'm often amazed (and disgusted) at what the
food industry is allowed to get away with.

And today I want to blow the whistle on 4
supposedly healthy foods that I would recommend
you avoid. Let's get right into it.
 
1. Unfermented Soy
 
Soy is one of the highest plant sources of protein
but that's about all it's got going for it,
especially unfermented soy. 
 
The problem with soy boils down to the fact that
it is a very powerful source of phytoestrogens,
which elevate the estrogen levels in your body.

This is a big problem nowadays as we are seeing
more and more people develop "estrogen dominance"
related problems like endometriosis, ovarian
cysts, and general weight gain - just to name a
few.
 
Since estrogen promotes cell division/growth it is
also a stimulating factor in the development of
many types of cancer. Not great if you ask me.
 
The other issue with soy is that it suppresses
your thyroid. These "goitrogenic" properties reduce
your thyroid function and thus your overall
metabolism.
 
Since the thyroid is the master gland
of metabolism, any disruption to it will
inevitably cause you to pack on the pounds. This
is a common issue in those with hypothyroidism.
 
On the flip side, fermented soy products like
tempeh and miso are OK to eat and are actually
really good for you. But it's the processed,
unfermented versions of soy (tofu, soy milk,
etc...) that are the big problem.
 
2. "Low-Fat", "Low-Sugar", "Diet"
 
In general, I recommend that you steer clear of
packaged foods. Mainly because they are made by
companies that have no interest in your health.
 
Case in point - any packaged food that is labelled
"low fat", "low sugar", "diet", or any other
marker of processing.
 
Remember this - when a food has had ALL or SOME of
its original contents removed, they will need be
replaced by another (and usually nastier)
additive.
 
For instance, "sugar free" yogurt and diet sodas
may have few calories because they don't have any
sugar but they do have a ton of aspartame and
acesulfame K - TWO deadly neurotoxins that account
for over 75% of ALL health complaints that the FDA
receives!!!
 
If you're going to eat something out of a package
or box, make sure it's REGULAR. End of story.
 
3. Whole Grains
 
This is one of the biggest farces of our time.
We've been told to eat whole grains because they
are good for us. They are great source of fiber
and other vitamins.
 
Bull....(you know the rest)
 
Here's the problem....
 
Humans have not evolved to properly digest grains.
It doesn't matter if we're talking white pasta,
whole wheat or multigrain bread, or cheerios...
 
Our digestive tract does not know how to handle
grains. Sure some cultures may fair better than
others but isn't it interesting that MOST weight
loss diets tell you to avoid grains???
 
Other than helping you lose weight quickly,
removing grains will also reduce the irritation
and thus potential inflammation caused by gluten
(a problematic protein found in grains).
 
Some pseudograins like quinoa, amaranth, millet,
and buckwheat are much better for human
consumption but other than that I would pass on
the bread and pasta if I were you.
 
I guarantee doing that alone will revitalize your
health, improve your skin, and help you lose
weight effortlessly.
 
And I go into way more detail about glutenous
grains on page 52 of the Food Guide in our Total
Wellness Cleanse. 
 
4. Egg Whites
 
Why do people fear egg yolk?
 
That's where the major nutritional value of an egg
resides. The egg white is simply protein - that's
it. 
 
But for some reason, we've been "taught" by I
don't who that egg yolks raise the cholesterol in
our blood. Again, nonsense!
 
The reality about heart disease and cholesterol is
that it's free flowing acids in our blood and free
radicals that "scar" our arteries. As a repair
mechanism, our liver secretes cholesterol to patch
up the damage - kind of like healing a cut on your
skin.
 
Eggs have nothing to do with that!
 
If you want to lower your cholesterol, stop eating
sugar and garbage foods!
 
If you want to eat eggs, then make sure to eat the
WHOLE egg - the way it is was meant to be eaten.
When the yolk and white are eaten together, the
entire and its nutrients are better absorbed
because all the nutrients are working
synergistically.
 
It's the 1st LAW of nutrition - eat whole
foods!!!!
 
If you've enjoyed this information then you'll
love the Total Wellness Cleanse.
 
Not only is the cleanse chock full of whole food
recipes and meal plans that will nourish and
cleanse your body, but you'll also LEARN more

For instance, on page 25 of the "Food Guide",

you want to lose weight and better your health.
You'll be surprised by at least 3 of them!
