acai berry
Dr. Perricone There is a special berry that comes from an Amazon palm tree that is harvested in the rainforests of Brazil, which tastes like a blend of berries and chocolate.

Although you've likely never heard of the acai berry, it is quickly gaining in populartiy (having been recently featured on ABC, CNN, Fox News, CBS News) since the world famous doctor and best selling author, Dr. Nicholas Perricone, voted it the number one superfood available anywhere on the planet. This product is a natural powerhouse of goodness. And it's not only said to help you lose weight, but to stay healthier and enjoy more energy too.

And after years of scientific research, this 'Acai Berry' is quickly gaining an incredible reputation. Many studies have been conducted on this humble berry, and here are just some amazing things about the Acai Berry that these studies have found out:

  • It has more protein per pound than an egg.
  • It is almost the perfect food for amino acids, and also has critical trace minerals important for muscle regeneration.
  • It has a remarkable concentration of antioxidants including twice as many antioxidants as blueberries, ten times as many antioxidants as red grapes and 10 to 30 times the antioxidants of red wine.
  • It promotes cardiovascular and digestive health as a result of an amazing combination of healthy fats (monounsaturated), phytosterols and dietary fiber.
  • It contains fatty acids which are full of the goodness of monounsaturated oleic acid which when combined with omega 3 fish oils help all your hormones, insulin receptors and neurotransmitters function more effectively. (note: this helps lower insulin levels and reduce inflammantion. Very important, because inflammation casues aging.)

1-2 cubes of bouillon (optional)

You can also add 1 can sliced mushrooms, or 8 oz. fresh mushrooms and a small amount of cayenne pepper.

Instructions:

Chop the vegetables into small pieces. Cover with about 3 pints water or V-8 juice.

Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender (20 to 30 min).

For variety, you can vary the ingredients each time you make the soup.



7-Day Cabbage Soup Diet Plan:

Day One:

Eat only fruit and cabbage soup — eat all of the fruit you want, except bananas.
Eat as much cabbage soup as you like
You can drink unsweetened teas, cranberry juice, and water.

Day Two:

Vegetables: Eat all the fresh, raw or cooked vegetables you want. Eat lots of leafy green vegetables and all the cabbage soup you want.
Avoid dry beans, peas, and corn.

For dinner, have a baked potato with butter.

No fruit allowed today, only vegetables.

Day Three of the cabbage soup diet:

Combine what you ate on days one and two - that means you can eat as many fruits, vegetables and cabbage soup as you like but no baked potato.

Day Four:

This is the day for bananas and skim milk: Eat up to eight bananas and drink as many glasses of skim milk as you would like on this day, along with your soup. This day is supposed to lessen your desire for sweets. You could make milkshakes with only bananas and skim milk and a drop of vanilla — don't add sugar or artificial sweeteners.
 

Day Five of the cabbage soup diet:

Eat beef and tomatoes: You may have 10-20 ounces of beef (300-500g) and up to six fresh tomatoes. Drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water this day to wash the uric acid from your body. Eat cabbage soup at least once today.

You may eat broiled or baked chicken instead of beef if you remove the skin. You may also substitute broiled fish for the beef for one of the beef days (but not both) if you prefer.

Day Six:

Eat beef and vegetables today. You can even have two or three steaks if you like, accompanied with only fresh vegetables or salad. But NO baked potato. Eat your soup at least once.

Day Seven of the cabbage soup diet:

Eat all you want of brown rice, unsweetened fruit juices, and vegetables. Be sure to eat your soup at least once today. Bread, alcohol, carbonated beverages, or diet soda of any sort are NOT allowed.

This completes the diet. Some people repeat the diet a second week. Do NOT maintain the diet longer than 2 weeks without a break. Only repeat the cabbage soup diet again after resuming a normal diet for 2 to 3 weeks.

If you're worried about the lack of protein, you can get all the amino acids your body needs to create protein without any fat or calories. Click Here more information

The Story and Research Behind Wu Yi Slimming Tea

Wu Yi Tea Wu Yi Tea contains anti-oxidants, many amino acids and has properties that stimulate adipose metabolism. Keep drinking 2 cups a day, but remember to eat regularly, though gradually in smaller portions. Wu Yi Tea will help shed stubborn pounds by boosting your metabolism and blocking the fattening effect of carbohydrates. Wu Yi Tea promotes healthy and radiant skin glow and strengthens the immune system. This is according to Journal Of Medical Investigation, Osaka University.

Studies have shown that Wu long Tea burns over 150% more fat than green tea. People who drank two cups a day of Wu long experienced far greater fat burning results than those who drank the same amount of green tea.

Along with weight loss, it also has the strong medicinal functions in:

  • anti-carcinogenic properties reduce risk of cancer
  • assists in managing high cholesterol levels
  • lowers blood pressure
  • inhibits the abnormal formation of blood clots
  • helps with digestion
  • improves immunity
  • relieves tiredness
Chinese diet teas are amazing, fat-burners! In a study published in the August 2003 edition of the Journal of Medical Investigation, scientists from Japan's University of Tokushima School of Medicine found that people who drank two cups a day of Chinese diet tea experienced over 157% greater fat burning results than those who drank the same amount of green tea.

In the Fall 2006 edition of the Tea Experience Digest, Dr. Saleeby reports that Chinese diet tea "in fact lessens absorption of fats, increases the body’s metabolism and is responsible for noradrenaline-induced lipolysis (breakdown) of adipose tissue." Wu Yi burns stubborn body fat naturally converting it to energy! Wu Yi also appears in the latest issue of Women's Health and Fitness!

A study published in the Journal of Medical Investigation found that women who consumed Chinese diet tea directly after a meal increased energy expenditure by 10%. This compared to an energy expenditure of 4% for green tea drinkers and 0% for water drinkers.

Researchers at the Suntory Research Center in Osaka, Japan found that drinking Chinese diet tea 15 minutes before eating foods high in carbohydrates curbed rises in insulin, thus reducing some of the fattening effects of carbohydrate intake.
