THE PAUSE "MAKING OUR THIRD ACTS THE BEST YET" ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS In the first strand of The HOPE Protocol, we optimize our hormones. In the second strand, we optimize our weight. In the third strand, The Purification Strand, we optimize health. In the fourth strand, we optimize our minds. We begin optimizing our health by optimizing our livers. Nearly all overweight menopausal women and andropausal men have fatty livers. We must de-fat it to dance at our grandchildren's weddings. Fatty livers cause us to burn fat slower and prevent our cells from receiving the messages our hormones are trying to convey. And remember, it's all about our hormones. Last week, I wrote about sugar and its dozens of names. After that newsletter, several people asked me about artificial sweeteners. Due to email providers limiting the number of words in an email, we have made a PDF of what artificial sweeteners to avoid and what sweeteners to use. Click on the link below to read all about them. ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS: THE GOOD! THE BAD! THE UGLY! THIS WEEK'S US-IE Traditional Father’s Day Prime Rib I had an exceptional Father’s Day. I hope yours did, too. 😋 Doc And remember, IT'S ALL ABOUT OUR HORMONES! "We are nothing more than reflections of our hormones." |
I have practiced hormone and weight optimization for over forty-five years. I retired 10 years ago; at least, that is what I thought. When I retired, my wife and I owned and operated several medical clinics specializing in hormone and weight optimization. We discovered that as a woman enters menopause, her hormones become disrupted, causing many women to gain weight rapidly, and no matter what they do, not be able to lose it. If that has happened to you, text me at 209-345-9799. I have found that those who text me are serious about creating the body they desire. Once I receive your text, I will find a convenient time for you to speak with me. During our conversation, I will customize a gourmet weight loss menu for you, and tweak it until it works. Our menus have no caloric restrictions or frequency of meals. There is no charge! 👍 Doc
