The IEM Newsletter

"This site ROCKS!!!! I have been able to keep my protein, fat, carbs and exercise in line more easily because I can figure out EXACTLY what to eat, how much, and what to shop for."

Joan Harwood, MA, LMFT, LPC

At the Institute of Eating Management and Relapse Prevention Center there's something we refer to as “ the Media Food Chain.” You are constantly being bombarded by tons of information about:

the latest diet
weight loss supplements
hundreds of other sound bites on what you and your family should do to be fit, trim and healthy.

So where do you go to get accurate information about health and fitness?

Don't assume that the popular magazines you read will give you the right answers.

Why?

Because most of the magazines are owned by various supplement companies which have a vested interest in selling you something. Much of the information regarding nutrition that you have been taught over the years is wrong.

Questions to consider:

Have you stopped using Aspartame in fear that it may cause brain cancer?
Do you know who should not eat aspartame and who can?
Did you buy into the infomercial that was responsible for the Coral Calcium craze? Did you know that infomercial has been removed from the airwaves because the so called authorities were misleading the public about its benefits?
Or perhaps are investing valuable time at the gym and despite your efforts not getting the results you want?
Are you curious about myths the food industry may be feeding you, or hungry for more knowledge about which supplements are right for you?
Or maybe you are confused about the right way to maintain health.

Incredible Weight Loss Supplement

by: Nutritionist Keith Klein

You may recall headlines referring to a compound that researchers discovered called the ob/gene, which stands for obese gene. This discovery lead to Amgen’s development of an obesity drug called Leptin. Leptin is an injectable hormone discovered by Jeffery Friedman, a molecular geneticist at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. His research team discovered a mutant obesity gene in mice. They suspected that this gene caused them to pile on extra body fat. Then the discovery came that fat cells secreted this hormone into the blood stream. As the number of fat cells increase, the level of this hormone rises. The hormone level appears to be regulated by a feedback mechanism (a gene) and once enough fat has been stored, the level of this hormone diminishes. However, in the case of obese mice, the gene that regulates this process is defective and is unable to produce this hormone in sufficient quantities. Consequently, the mice with the defective gene continued to get fatter and fatter because the body could not receive the message that enough fat had been stored............
