Why is it so hard to lose weight and so easy to gain it?
Of all the hundreds of, products, pills, supplements, and diets out there on the market, which vitamins will help me lose weight?
Stop wasting your valuable money on weight loss supplements, shakes, or whatever the current fad is. There’s no such thing as the magic pill that will bring your weight to the ideal level. All of these have only modest effects on body weight and fat but this is not the long term answer.1
Don’t fall for these quick fixers on the market!
The FDA released 41 public notifications in 2015 for weight loss products containing hidden drug ingredients. FDA has identified an emerging trend where over-the-counter products, frequently represented as dietary supplements, contain hidden active ingredients that could be harmful.2
Instead, change your focus from losing weight to flooding your body with phytochemicals, micronutrients, and essential vitamins that your body will respond to favorably.
It’s almost impossible to gain weight when we are putting the proper nutrients, vitamins, and minerals into our bodies!
This is so important it bears repeating – Our bodies will seek and maintain it’s ideal weight when we are putting the proper nutrients, vitamins, and minerals into our bodies!
So it would go without saying, that to lose weight we need to flood our bodies with nutrients!
The average, which is over 70% of people, are running full throttle but the wheels aren’t turning!
Our physiological processes and organs in our bodies are working overtime to keep us from dying due to all the “dead” foods we are putting into our bodies. Most, add no value to our health. We are continuously creating a highly acidic condition in our bodies by placing these processed dead foods, high intakes of meat, sugar, preservatives, and not to mention prescription drugs into our bodies.
This acidic condition in our body causes us to crave more acid producing foods – we have the snowball effect again!
Homeostasis, the bodies effort to do what it takes to keep us alive, will at all cost balance the pH in our body by stealing alkaline minerals from everywhere possible in the body. The alkaline calcium is pulled from our bones and the magnesium from our muscles. The kidneys are working hard to excrete excess toxins, the liver to filter, heavy breathing through our lungs to expel the CO2, our lymph system is overloaded and plugged with toxins, etc.
So what happens to all this acid producing food that is digested, or partially digested?
This is not our favorite topic, but it must be said and is critical to our health – constipation is at an all-time high. Putrefaction and fermentation in the large intestine is causing havoc by adding to the toxicity in our body. This subject will require a whole page of its own but just know that poor choice of food usually contains little or no fiber and by not eliminating the waste quickly, toxins are spewed back into our bodies. Pollution in the large intestine occurs from years of buildup!
And here’s the kicker! The body will create fat cells to store these excess toxins!
This is one reason we can’t shed the weight – the body doesn’t give it up – without a fight!
Patience
It takes some time to turn things around, after all it took quite some time for us to get into this position, so be patient and dedicated to provide living nutrients for health and your body will reward you!

Critical nutrients for weight loss
Start your weight loss program by flooding your body with high quality vitamins and nutrients. Living nutrients are found in raw, whole, organic, vegetables and plants, seeds, and nuts that have not been cooked or modified.
Depending on where you live and your lifestyle, this is not enough for most people. Vitamin supplements must be taken along with the raw foods we eat due to the low levels of nutrients found in the soils and plants today.
It is very important to bring the body back into the proper balance by ridding your body of the toxins that have accumulated in the flesh, muscle, and fat of the body over the years.
This DETOX program in conjunction with juicing and some lifestyle changes can be the beginning of the new you!
Take a quality supplement that contains “living enzymes” to aid in the digestion and absorption of nutrients.
Vitamins and other essential elements for weight loss
Step 1
- Detox – rid your body of those toxins and free your body to seek its ideal weight. Use a product like Fiber Cleanse to ensure timely elimination of toxins from the body.
Step 2
- Nourish – feed your body with a healthy diet and a supplement that contains vitamins, minerals, essential amino acids, chlorophyll, flavonoids, trace elements, antioxidants, and Live Enzymes, like gluten-free BarleyMax.
- Transition – from the Fiber Cleanse during detox to a high quality fiber source, for everyday use, of soluble and insoluble fiber. The B-Flax-D contains vital nutrition in a top notch fiber source along with vitamins D and K2.
- Support – for those who spend most of the time indoors without the benefits of sunshine. A vast majority of people are lacking sufficient amounts of vitamin D3. Taken in combination with K2 calcium absorption is increased and properly deposited. Calcium is a base that helps neutralize and balance our body pH and reduce toxic buildup. Vitamin D3-K2 offers these synergistic combinations.
- Juicing – a much larger percentage of the nutrients from the vegetables go directly to the cellular level since it bypasses the digestion processes. Using a juicer that separates the pulp is the best but a powerful blender will work also.
- For those who are restricted on time, use a high quality concentrated nutrient dense powder product such as TrioMax, CarrotJuiceMax, or BeetMax, to power your cells with nutritional energy.
- Drink plenty of distilled water. The purest water we can drink comes from fruits and vegetables. Water is one of the most basic needs of the body and the metabolic functions needed for health. Drink 1 oz of water daily per half your body weight in pounds. A 160 pound person would need at least 80 ounces per day.
Step 3
- Exercise – Not only helps burn calories but has many other benefits such as eliminating toxins through sweat. Alternate strength with aerobic exercises.
- Rest and stress – These two work in inverse proportion to each other. If we are not getting enough rest our stress levels typically increase and vice versa. Spend time in Gods word and prayer. Carve those times every day for time of prayer and rest. Your health, and weight, depend on it!
