Health Bible

People are often shocked when they see how much butter I use and eat in one day. But I know the real truth; Butter is a good fat and can actually help you to lose weight.

Unfortunately, a person thinking butter is unhealthy is a very common misconception. People still think that butter and saturated fats are the reason for heart disease. It is one of the top killers in this country (and now in many other countries as well). The truth is that it’s not the natural fats that are causing this epidemic, it’s the sugar, processed and packaged foods and overconsumption of refined oils that are causing so much disease (and you can add Diabetes, High Cholesterol and High Blood Pressure to this list as well).

I go into this topic in much greater detail in the Fats Chapter of the Diet Solution Program but here are a few nuggets of info to ponder:

1. Did you know that during the 60 year period from 1910-1970, the proportion of traditional animal fat in the American diet declined from 83% to 62%?

2. During this same time butter consumption plummeted from 18 pounds per person each year to 4 pounds per person each year.

3. During the past 80 years, the consumption of dietary cholesterol intake has increased only one percent.

So where is the problem? Why all the heart disease?

1. During the same period, the average intake of dietary vegetable oils (margarine, shortening, and refined oils) increased by about 400%.

2. During the same period, the consumption of sugar and processed foods increased by about 60%

Those are the facts, but there’s never better proof than the results I see with my clients and my readers. When people finally stop eating margarine, refined oils, “fake” butters, sugar and processed foods made their health sky rockets! (and by sky rockets I mean, gets better, greatly improves, elevates to whole new levels). Not to mention all the body fat they lose off their body (now isn’t that just an awful side effect?)

It’s important to mention that the butter I use is organic and grass fed. It has this beautiful deep yellow color and is not white like most conventional butters. It has gone through minimal processing and has no added growth hormones and antibiotics.

Now that I told you butter is ok to eat, here is a delicious chicken recipe you can enjoy:

(Please remember that the mad scientist in me sometimes forgets to document the exact amounts so you may need to play around with this a bit.)

Chicken with “I’m not afraid of butter” dressing

Ingredients:

2 large chicken breasts (approximately 1 lb of chicken)
6 Tbsp of melted butter
lemon juice from 1/2 large lemon
1/4 cup olive oil
salt, pepper and garlic powder to taste

Directions:

Melt 1 tbsp of butter in a large pan. Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Cook chicken breasts in butter covered on a very low heat. Do not let the butter get brown. Pour lemon juice in a separate bowl. Slowly stir in the remaining melted butter as you stir mixture. Then slowly add the olive oil as you stir mixture. Season with salt, pepper and garlic powder.

Once the chicken is cooked through, serve on a plate and pour the “dressing mixture” over your cooked chicken breasts.

Don’t be surprised if you are tempted to pour this dressing on your veggies and just about every other food item you can think of. It’s delicious!

Is it possible to put together a simple and healthy meal plan? One that is not going to be complicated and hard to follow? Yes. It is possible and I will show you how. The healthy meal plans below will help you achieve your health goals while simultaneously shedding fat off your body.

Here are 3 healthy meal plans you can get started on right now.

Breakfast

Protein should be included in every meal throughout the day and breakfast is no exception. Make sure to include organic eggs, cottage cheese, raw nut butter or smoked fish as one component of your healthy breakfast. Carbohydrates should also be included in the form of oatmeal, sprouted grain bread, fruit and/or vegetables.

3 great sample breakfasts are:

Oatmeal with almond butter, topped with fresh berries and a bit of Stevia to sweeten.

2 hard boiled eggs, 1 slice sprouted grain toast and ½ grapefruit

Smoked salmon over sliced tomato and 1 green apple

Lunch

The same rules apply as breakfast. An easy way to ensure that you always have a healthy protein available for lunch is to pack leftovers from dinner the night before. Leftover hamburger, chicken legs or wild fish are all great to include in a salad or over vegetables.

3 great sample lunches are:

Baked Tilapia over sautéed spinach, green salad with chick peas (oil and vinegar as dressing) followed by ½ cup of pineapple.

Leftover chicken legs with ½ sweet potato and broccoli.

Lean hamburger over portabella mushroom and brown rice. Cooked vegetables or a green salad. 1 orange.

Dinner

You can really be creative with dinner. Look for recipes that are quick and easy and modify them with your own healthy ingredients as needed. Again, always remember to include protein and carbohydrates.

3 great sample dinners are:

Mexican salad: Ground beef over shredded lettuce and tomato, guacamole and brown rice.

Grilled Salmon over asparagus, green salad (oil and vinegar as dressing) followed by a fresh fruit salad.

Buffalo meat balls over rice pasta with sautéed broccoli.

Snacks

You never want to let your body get too hungry. Hunger often leads to binge eating of unhealthy food and makes sticking to a healthy eating regimen much more difficult. It’s important to keep snacks handy so you never experience hunger or a blood sugar low without having a healthy option nearby.

3 great snacks are:

2 Tbsp almond butter on ½ apple

Trail mix made up of walnuts, almonds, pumpkin seeds and dried fruit (no sugar added)

Cottage cheese and pineapple

Incorporate just a few of these meals into your daily eating regimen and you will see an incredible difference in your weight loss results. Following simple and healthy meal plans like these is the first step in achieving your health and fitness goals.

There are literally hundreds of dieting plans out there that give misinformed advice on how to eat healthy. But many people will propagate false information regarding diet which can actually harm your health rather than tuning it up.

Here are a couple of these misconceptions and simple truths to counter them:

Myth 1: Fewer calories means instant weight loss

· Wrong! Calories are energy units to the body. With fewer calories than normal, you might not have enough energy to make it through the day. The important part is not actually the value of calorie intake in numbers, but where these calories are coming from. For instance, brown rice is a good source of calories. The right source of calories is actually weight loss foods, providing you with energy without the stubborn unnecessary fats.

Myth 2: Eating low fat will help to lose more fat

· Wrong again. Most of the time people are tricked into this little lie because it appeals to common sense. It’s simple, right? Eat low fat and your body won’t have enough fat to stack in those love handles. This is perhaps the most popular misconception.

The truth is that there are healthy kinds of fat. For instance, the natural fats and oils of salmons, tunas, coconuts, avocadoes, citrus fruits, and many others, are all fats that the body actually needs. You need to consume fat in order to burn body fat.

Myth 3: Low carb intake will help to lose weight faster

· Similar to the low calorie myth, a low carbohydrates diet can actually harm your body. The body needs a moderate amount of carbs to function which you get from fruits and vegetables.

Myth 4: Supplements and fat burners to be fit

· Perhaps the biggest ripoff the multi-million dollar diet industry’s shoved down people’s throats, you don’t need these in order to lose weight.

Think about how people in the past, who didn’t have access to these supplements and burners, how did stayed fit? The answer is simple; they consumed right food and exercised well. While supplements and burners may help, none of them will work without the right attitude and informed effort put into dieting.

Myth 5: diet foods are weight loss foods

· Some diet foods may contain less unnecessary fats, but that doesn’t make them a necessary component of any weight loss dieting program. Whatever you eat, whether it’s labeled lite, diet, or not, if you eat too much of it, you will gain weight. Some ingredients of these so-called diet foods may actually promote weight gain. Check the label carefully and make informed decisions.
