How To Get Healthy Without Mentally, Physically and Emotionally Tormenting Yourself

Since the launch of The Cheat System Diet in May of 2014- we have seen people have a lot of success with the 21 day program.

But the MOST interesting result has been that people feel a ton better- physically, mentally and emotionally- when they embrace some of the key ideas.

So what we have done is put together a very focused 7 day program that will teach you the exact things you need to do to feel better, while using CSD or any other plan or combination of plans.

It has been our experience that the vast majority of people know a great deal about losing weight, getting fit and making healthier choices. But they still struggle with following through- and really putting all the pieces together in a sustainable way.

Many people also feel like they are doing "all the right things" but are not making the progress they think they are.

So what we are going to do with you over the next 7 days is teach you some critical adjustments that will help you feel a lot better physically, emotionally and mentally.

When you get to this place, you will find that progress becomes a lot easier, and success becomes a much more sustainable and effortless thing.

Enter Your Email In The Form Below To Get Started:

Here are some of the things we will cover in the next 7 days:

The reason why slowing down the pace of your plan will lead to more success, not less.
A critical brain trick taught by a Harvard Psychiatrist that will make it easier to adopt new habits.
The exact thing to do when you are doing all the right things but nothing is working
The reason why focusing on adding certain foods, rather than avoiding certain foods is the true path to long term success
What "stress belly" is and how to "fix" the hormone that causes it
The reason why willpower and discipline have led you to failure and will continue to do so.
Why portion control failure is not your fault
The exact exercises to avoid to help you feel better and make dramatically more progress.

This might sound like a lot, but you will be surprised at how easy these concepts are to put into immediate action.

Our promise here is that you are going to feel better physically, mentally and emotionally in 7 days.

When you sign up for this free program, we will also send you a 50 page recipe guide. These are no brainer, easy to make recipes that help fill you up and feel great.

We are going to leave the comments section open below, and all we ask in return is that you leave a comment about this program after 7 days.

New PEERtrainer 14 Day Weight Loss Challenge (Free To Join)

Hi There-

We are starting something new and fun, and something that EVERYONE should be able to easily do.

We are creating a 14 day challenge, where the objective is to complete a "daily one thing."

This DAILY ONE THING can be ANYTHING that helps you get to your goal. The idea here is that we have a lot of "all in" kinds of things at PEERtrainer. Things that work super well- but we want to have an easy access program.

A big focus of the 14 day challenge is going to be recipes. Shakes, soups and huge salads are great daily one things.

In fact, when you sign up you will get a couple recipe ideas a day, things for you to try. You will also be invited to a team on the PEERtrainer site which I just created and I will be in posting each day and answering questions.

To get started, enter your email in the form below. This will be fun!!

Are You Guilty Of This WEIRD Phenomenon?

I want to run something by you, and see if this describes you in any way. We often see a weird phenomenon of people who are very accomplished in other areas of their life. PhDs, MDs, corporate executives, busy moms, former athletes-- people very familiar with what it takes to succeed.

Yet for some reason they have not made the simple shift in their head that doing the work to lose weight permanently and become healthy is something that takes the same level of focus that you used to succeed in other areas of your life.

We got a very interesting comment from someone after we first came up with this idea. This person said that this phenomenon described her exactly. She added that "I suspect that in some way I don't want to admit to myself that getting my health in order is in some way equal to the magnitude or importance of getting my PhD."

What area of your life have you done well in? When it comes to weight and health, people experience a great deal of frustration and real bouts of hopelessness. Yet most of us understand what hard work is, and we have experienced being successful by creating a goal, creating a plan to get to that goal, and doing it. You know what this looks like and feels like. It is just work, it is not magic, and it does not need to create frustration.

It is just work!!

One resource that you might want to start today (it is half off and 100% refundable so there is NO RISK to you) is the PEERtrainer Point of No Return Program. This program is designed for people who feel as if "They know HOW to lose weight, but need help following through."

The truth behind this program is that it uses some very advanced brain programming techniques. The program walks you through a series of strategies that basically change how you think. Unlike our Cleanse, this program does not have a repeatable result, like losing 5 pounds in 2-3 weeks.

What is does offer is the chance to change how you think about food for the rest of your life, and give you a ton more power. It will help you feel more fully in control, and help you make better decisions. Or you get every penny of your $38.50 back, which is the price of a nice lunch for one. Learn More Right Here

Point Of No Return, combined with the Cleanse has been the combo that has put people on the path of incredible success. Long term success. If you have done the Cleanse, start Point of No Return right now. And if you have not tried either one, you are missing out and should start right now. In fact, we have a new Cleanse starting February 25th.

New Coupon, New Cleanse Date!!

We have our next Cleanse gearing up for a Feb 25th start date. New people can learn more here.

We are also bringing our a HEART20 coupon code to a close. This will get you 20% off all the shakes, fiber and detox packs you need. Use it right now!

How To Lose 5 to 10 Pounds In 2-3 Weeks Without Feeling Hungry....

How To Lose 5 to 10 Pounds in 2-3 Weeks Without Feeling Hungry

A nutritional cleanse is one of the SINGLE BEST options out there

for people to get a quick boost during a 2-3 week period.

This is NOT a juice cleanse or a master cleanse which can leave

you feeling sick.

This IS a 2-3 week period where you simply REPLACE the foods

you normally eat, with some foods that are designed to reduce

inflammation and help you better burn fat.

Hillary Clinton, in preparation for her likely run for President, has

recently adopted elements of this exact approach. PEERtrainer has

put together a free 4 part video training series that you can

sign up for on this page:

>>http://www.peertrainer.com/cleanse/fresh_start.html

The page also features a guided cleanse, where the team at

PEERtrainer guides you through this process step by step, for

a fee. Both approaches work. If you are a self starter, the do it

yourself option works really well.

If you are the kind of person who benefits from a personal trainer

and a schedule, the guided cleanse is a great option. If you are

just kicking the tires, please do not sign up for either the free or

the paid option.

>>http://www.peertrainer.com/cleanse/fresh_start.html

PEERtrainer Cleanse Notes:

A quick note to let you know that this is pretty much the last day
to get your kits for the August 19th cleanse. It takes 3-5 days
depending on where you live.

For those of you starting for the first time, you can get all
the info here:

PEERtrainer Fresh Start Cleanse Sign Up Page

For those of you looking for free access to our How To Do
A Cleanse mini course, you can sign up here as well on this
page.

For those of you refreshing, the code AUGUST10 will save
you 10 percent in the PEERtrainer shop, where we feature
Thorne and the Cheat System Diet branded shakes. (Made in the same
place, different formulations)

http://shop.peertrainer.com/shakes

You'll also want to stock back up on Detox Nutrients Packets:

http://shop.peertrainer.com/peertrainer-fresh-start-cleanse-detox-nutrient-packs

A nutritional cleanse, no matter if you do it as part of a group
and program or on your own, is something you really have
got to learn how to do to maximize long term and short term
success.

Not everyone nails it the first time around, but overall people
average between 5 and 10 for the 2 to 3 week period.

This is a great quote from someone who did not have success
the first time around, but who did have better progress this
last time around. They said they adhered to the guidelines
about 60% and lost 4. Not a huge number, but this is GREAT progress.

We have so many super amazing stories that it is nice to see
someone get back on the protocol after not seeing success
the first time.

"I could have done better but I did much better than the first time around!
It is difficult for me to stay on track because i am such a social person,
with a lot of commitments! However, I did start my morning with a shake
and if I was going out to dinner, I would have a shake for lunch and
pick the healthiest dinner option. Coffee was another major hang up
but after a few days of weening myself off-- i did come off it!

Thorne was a bit of an adjustment but in the end I LIKE THEM SOO
MUCH MORE!"

We love seeing people switch from Whey and Soy to Thorne's pea
protein blends, which help you feel fuller longer.

If you are not sure you can commit 80% to the program, then take
advantage of our program only option. The coupon on this page
brings the price down to $45, which is then 100% guaranteed
if you don't find huge benefit.

Once you do the program once, you have access for free for life to
our recurring cleanses, which people really take advantage of.

The PEERtrainer Fresh Start cleanse is an excellent way to JUMPSTART
the ideals outlined in the PEERtrainer Cheat System.

If you are on the fence thinking about this- try the program option

first and get your feet wet. As you get comfortable and start to dig

into the course, you can then take some more steps.

Others like to go big or go home. For those of you, the Kit Plus option

is for you.

For those of you who really feel as if you cannot commit at least 60%

to the program, this is not for you.

The 4 Factors That Determine Whether You Shrink Or Grow Artery Plaque (By Steven Masley, MD)

We are very excited to have you meet a friend of ours, Steven Masley, who is an MD that has run a health focused practice for many years.

This is a quick article that outlines the 4 factors that determine whether you shrink or grow artery plaque. Pay very close attention to what is not on this list....

The 4 Factors That Determine Whether You Shrink Or Grow Artery Plaque

By Steven Masley, MD

At the Masley Optimal Health Center, we are studying which specific lifestyle choices you make day in and day out best predict your ability to shrink plaque in your arteries. We have hundreds of patients who have shrunk their arterial plaque, and we are analyzing data with hundreds of biological markers that include aerobic fitness, strength, food intake, vitamin and mineral intake, cholesterol profiles, and state-of-the-art cardiovascular testing.

Artery plaque impacts your circulation and determines your risk for a future heart attack or stroke. The less your artery plaque, the better your circulation. The are several reasons why you want less artery plaque:

· Artery plaque is the strongest predictor for optimal brain performance, and helps to prevent cognitive decline.

· Less plaque means better sexual function, for both men and women.

· Less plaque means better circulation and greater athletic performance.

· Less plaque means you won't have a heart attack or stroke in your lifetime.

A factor that in our study does not predict plaque regression is your total cholesterol level. So if cholesterol didn't matter, what are the top factors that determine if you grow artery plaque or if it shrinks?

#1: Fitness: Aerobic fitness is at the top. It doesn't matter how many minutes you work out per week. What matters is how fit you are. As an example for aerobic fitness, what is your capacity to run up a steep hill? The best way to enhance your fitness is with interval (burst) training, performed 2-3 times per week.

#2: Fiber: The more fiber you eat, the less plaque you grow. You get fiber from vegetables, fruits, beans, nuts, and whole grains. Soluble fiber from vegetables, fruits, and beans is the best. You should aim to get 40 grams of fiber daily.

#3: Fabulous Heart Nutrients: We have identified several key nutrients that are essential for your heart. Don't forget your magnesium, vitamin K, and potassium. All can be obtained from food. Rich sources of magnesium come from beans, seeds, nuts, and green leafy vegetables. Vitamin K comes from green leafy vegetables daily (ensure you get at least a cup of greens every day). Beans, fish, vegetables and fruits are excellent sources of potassium. Ensure you get 500 mg of magnesium, 500 mg of vitamin K, and 4000 mg of potassium daily.

#4: Fish: Fish intake is great for your heart. But you need to be very selective in what type of fish you eat. Ideal fish comes from cold water, has a small mouth, and is wild. The big mouth issue is a surprise to some, but the bigger the mouth the higher the mercury level, so limit tuna, grouper, snapper, and bass to not more than a couple servings per month, and avoid shark and swordfish entirely.

You should be eating fish three times per week, or taking a high quality fish oil supplement daily. The quality of fish oil varies tremendously, so insist on excellent quality. Fish oil should taste fresh, so always test a new bottle of fish oil capsules by poking a needle into one capsule and tasting a drop. Even the best quality fish oil can be damaged with shipping.

Take heart and follow these steps to optimal health so that you can shrink artery plaque and turn back the clock on aging!

Steven Masley, MD

Why Paleo Might NOT Be That Great For Weight Loss (Part 3 In A Series)

We always try and cut through the hype and get to the root of
anything. The new Paleo craze is the flavor of the month, and
we have Brian Rigby get to the roots of Paleo and separate fact
from fiction for you. Here is part 3 of the series:

Myth #3:The Paleo Diet Is Great for Athletes and Weight Loss

This comes with an addendum: the Paleo Diet can potentially be fine for athletes, assuming they make some changes such as increasing the amount of carbohydrates they eat. This is not the usual case made, however. Rather, the regular old high meat and veggie Paleo diet is advertised as having wonderful effects for physical fitness.

The truth is most athletes will suffer some form of performance inhibition due to the very low content of carbohydrates in most Paleolites diets. Without these carbohydrates, ability to do high-intensity work is limited and proteolysis (breakdown of muscle tissue) is dramatically increased as the body attempts to create its own carbohydrates to make up for the ones it’s not getting from the diet.

A commonly extolled virtue of the Paleo Diet is that it will increase performance through reduction in weight. Over a short period of time, a low-carbohydrate diet does appear to increase weight loss, but it is likely that much of this is water weight as the body sheds its glycogen stores (stored carbs which are very important for performance). As for a long-term solution for weight loss, the results are less promising.

Comparing the Mediterranean diet, a low-carb Paleoesque diet, and a low-fat diet, all had leveled out after about a year. The low-carb diet ostensibly weighed less by a few pounds, but given the context it is highly likely the difference in weight was accountable to water, not fat.

Another study analyzed different diets and found that carbohydrate and fat content was not responsible for effects on weight loss, which could be solely attributed to the amount of protein in the diet. Any diet can be high in protein, so this is not a claim to fame for Paleo.

Without any increased ability to lose unwanted body fat, and with a significant reduction in the ability to perform carbohydrate-driven high-intensity work, what other advantage might the Paleo Diet give? Many claim that the Paleo Diet increases your ability to burn fat. As with so many of the other myths, this one is half true as well. A low-carb diet does increase the amount of fat you burn, but not because your body gets particularly good at it, but because there simply are no carbohydrates to burn!

If you have a gas/electric hybrid car, but never fill it with gas (opting to plug in instead), you can give the artificial appearance that it runs off electricity better because little to no gas is being used. However, the reason is limitation, not adaptation. Fill that car with gas again, and the amount of electricity it uses to run will once again drop to the expected amount.

To cap this off, the athletes who pursue a high-protein, high-fat, low-carb diet wind up improving less than athletes on a diet which includes carbohydrates, and by a significant margin. The Paleo Diet, as it is often consumed, has no real benefit for performance, and in the long-term may be detrimental.

Did Our Ancestors Actually Eat The Paleo Diet? Were Our Ancestors’ Diets Really That Healthy?

We always try and cut through the hype and get to the root of anything. Paleo is popular right now, and we have Brian Rigby get to the roots of Paleo and separate fact from fiction for you. here is part 2 of the series

Did Our Ancestors Actually Eat The Paleo Diet?

If you’ve had the good fortune to travel around the world, you know that people eat different things everywhere. There is a very reasonable explanation for this: what is available here may not be there, and vice-versa.

The Paleo Diet seems to have missed this note, however, because they would have everyone eat like a Northern European.

Northern Europeans certainly ate more meat and less carbohydrates than we typically do today because they were constrained by seasons. When snow falls, plants die back and become difficult to cultivate for food. Animals, however, stay very much alive, even if they migrate. For this reason alone, animals were a large part of the Northern European’s diet.

What about ancestral people living on the equator, though, where there is typically at least fruit available for much, if not all, of the year, and where plants never die back? Meat was still undoubtedly a part of all our Paleolithic ancestors’ diets, but it’s also very likely that those of us whose ancestors came from warmer regions of the globe ate significant amounts of plants and carbohydrates as well.

Were Our Ancestors’ Diets Really That Healthy?

A very large assumption about the Paleo Diet is that it is a healthy diet. The reasoning may go a few ways: ancestral wisdom, evolutionary adaptation, or just plain old being in tune with nature. What all of these arguments lack is necessity. Our ancestors had far fewer choices diet-wise than we do today. It is quite likely a large part of their diet was dictated by what was available. Northern Europeans didn’t eat a lot of meat because it was good for them, they ate a lot of meat because it was available.

Evolutionary adaptation is a particularly interesting tact, because adaptation doesn’t always mean longer, healthier lives—sometimes it just means better odds of passing on genes. This sideways motion of evolution actually creates an argument against the Northern European Paleo Diet, particularly for the very individuals who are supposedly most adapted to it!

Next: Did Our Ancestors Really Eat A Low-Carb, High-Protein Diet?

Couple housekeeping notes on this wonderful Saturday Morning. We are running
our SUMMER20 20 percent coupon code in the shop right now and this ends
tomorrow. We are also bringing our intro sale on the new Think Thin Hypnosis
Program to a close tomorrow.

http://shop.peertrainer.com/think-thin-hypnosis-program

We launched this program at a deep 62% discount, only $18. We did this to get
feedback so that we are able to describe the program to people in a way that
reflects people's actual experience. A different form of "marketing" but it works
really well- a PEER to PEER recommendation model.

Hypnosis has been a controversial subject, but done right it is a helpful tool
to help you train your brain to make better decisions. In fact, hypnosis is now
scientifically proven to help people make better choices.

This is a digital program that you download to your ipod or i whatever, and listen
to it. Especially at night, or at monkey-time, when the monkeys start to come
out and play.

http://shop.peertrainer.com/think-thin-hypnosis-program

As always, our digital download products are 100% guaranteed. Feel
free to download and use the products and keep them, and still

Metabolic Booster Pack: Hugely Popular Item

Hair Loss Prevention Program: Get To The Hormonal Roots Of Female Hair Loss

Hair Loss Supplement Kit

New Fibermend: Makes Shakes Less Thick

Pea Rice, Pea Potato Shakes: People Keep Coming Back For More

PS: One thing that is no hype for sure is the need for people to get more
micronutrients in your diet. As our good friend Dr. Fuhrman has been teaching
everyone for years now, health equals the nutrients per calorie.

Lots of ways to get there. For busy people like my friend and college roommate
Julie, I recommend this:

Are You A Good Person Who Has Lost Total Control With Food?

We are doing a lot of new work with a couple MD's who are

experts at how the brain works and how the subconscious mind

works.

One theme that is clear to us is this- the brain and the stomach

are deeply connected. And the brain, for many of us, is the

gatekeeper to the stomach.

You might be summoning all the willpower in the world, but

if the brain wants to do something, it is going to do it.

Even the best of us lose total control, more often than we'd like.

The question then becomes- what is the best way to re-program

the gatekeeper? The good news here is that there are ways to

reprogram, bribe and cut deals with the gatekeeper/brain.

Simple tricks like writing down your daily goals on a notecard

work well. This tells your brain, "hey, we made a DEAL." And the

gatekeeper sometimes says "ok, I will honor that deal."

Other times it is not so simple. The reasons that the brain takes

over are varied. Sometimes this is rooted in traumatic events

in our past that we are struggling to deal with. Oftentimes these

reactions get clumped into something that we all call "issues

with food."

For many people it can literally take DECADES to gain the upper

hand in their battle with their emotions- and the gatekeeper

of their responses to stimulus. This is extremely common and

can happen to very good people.

Good people who often feel bad about how they are reacting.

We built the Point Of No Return Program years ago to help

with this exact issue, of how to reprogram and better deal

with our responses with food. This is one excellent, proven

tool that we highly recommended digging into- or digging

back into.

Here is what Kathy M said recently in the PEERtrainer Leaders

Group. (that is a link to the group)

"After decades of yo yo dieting, this program is what FINALLY
got me in the right thinking, which, as most people who have
food issues, is the first and most important thing to get right.

My brother, who just turned 40, had been the same as me....up and
down through the years. He did PONR and lost 40 or so pounds and
now instead of looking like the music professor that he is, looks
more like a student."

Kathy has a longer description of her experience with the
program on this page:

http://www.peertrainer.com/coaching/

This was the first premium program we created at PEERtrainer, and it remains
a core part of "PEERtrainer University."

The program is priced at $77 and we recently turned the 1/2 off sale back on, to help encourage people to try it for $38.50-- this offer is going to end

tonight.

We offer a 100% guarantee for any of our programs so there is no risk to you.

This program has been going for almost 5 years now, and is part of many many
peoples "big success."

If you think this program might help you, read the stories on this page and
see if they resonate with you:

http://www.peertrainer.com/coaching/

Our suggestion with this program is to save the class MP3s to your iTunes or
wherever you keep your music. This was you can access them forever.

The peer to peer sharing of experience and wisdom in the leaders group
has been amazing. We are so grateful for the generosity of the people
there. We know that there is an overwhelming amount of information
within PEERtrainer- this new group is a great resource to help guide you
to the right place, or find the answer to whatever you are working on personally!

-Jackie

PS: The next cleanse starts June 28th. If you are on the road or have a

funny schedule, join the cleanse course itself, and then just commit to

a shake with fiber in the AM.

Step 1: Join the course here, choose option 1:

http://www.peertrainer.com/freshstart

Step 2: learn how to make a great breakfast shake. Here are some

great recipes:

http://www.peertrainer.com/cleanse/cleanse-course-lesson-two.aspx

Tip: Do not use whey or soy. Period. Make every effort to

use the shakes that we advise. Yes, we sell them. But they

work really well, and don't have any junk in them. We constantly

see people shift from whatever brand to the thorne pea/rice or

pea/potato shakes (JJ's)

JJ's is an all in one shake, and the regular vegalite are for those

who are more into their own creations.

http;//shop.peertrainer.com/shakes

Here is a comment that Lisa made in the PT Leaders group

when someone asked how to do the cleanse when you

had a crazy schedule:

"The shakes are the key. Have one of those each morning -they keep you full and energized. I just recommitted myself to cut out the bad stuff and I am amazed at how easy it is - not always but most of the time - to pass on things that you know won't contribute to your goal."

Again, this page has some great recipes and tips for making them

taste great:

A Sneaky Trick For Coffee Lovers That Can Help You Lose Weight (Recipe Included!)

A Sneaky Trick For Coffee Lovers

One thing that we want to be clear on is that on the Cleanse and on the Cheat System you can have one cup of black coffee a day. A great "trick" for those of you who love your coffee (I certainly do) is to put it into your morning shake. We are seeing a TON of people do this, and these are all people having a great deal of steady success that lasts and builds.

My other tip is to move as much of the Medibulk or Fibermend out of the morning shake, and drink it maybe mid-day with some low sugar juice. You want to do this regardless because you want to hit that 30-50 grams of fiber a day that we now know will help to keep plaque from forming on your arteries.

Here is the best Chocolate Shake Recipe ever, btw and you can add your coffee to this. Green tea lovers let me know if you have a green tea shake recipe that you have found to work!

Best Chocolate Shake Recipe Ever

A lot of people have been asking about alternatives to whey and soy shakes, which is something that our cadre of health and nutrition experts are becoming increasingly adamant about. If you are not a bodybuilder, don't do whey. Period. The other thing to know is that pea and rice are an ideal combo because together they form a complete protein. As does pea/potato, which is what JJ uses in her all in one shakes.

The vegalite shakes from Thorne are lower in sugar and use stevia instead.

If you are not experiencing the results you want using different brands- give these a shot. They are the highest quality protein shakes out there, period.

Peter, from Stockbridge, Massachusetts, lost 12 pounds on the latest Cleanse- he did 2 shakes a day for 14 days and really stuck to the cleanse protocol.

He said that the cleanse really got him off a plateau and gave this tip:

"The advice I would give to shake newbies is give them a chance. Add as much or as little liquid as you need to in order to enjoy them. Example - in the a.m. I usually like them thick enough to eat with a spoon so I get some 'mouthfeel." In the afternoon or evening I prefer them thin enough to drink."

Great tip from Peter, (thank you!) and he also mentioned

that he had been doing shakes since January. The cleanse

really for him off the plateau, according to the survey he

filled out.

Why Pea/Rice Beats Whey And Soy For Weight Loss

We are also gearing up for a new cleanse starting June

24th. So please join us if you have not yet learned the

protocol. It works. Also also, go for the B+... do NOT

aim for perfection. Do as best you can- but do it, and do

it again. It works!

PS: This was something we sent out this weekend

How To Overcome Fear By Employing "The Better Deal" (A New Brain Trick!)

One of the main reasons that we don't change or make a

change is that there is some level of fear associated with it.

We might fear the unknown, we might fear the reaction of

others. Might be something else. But one thing that our

friend Dr. Srini- aka "The Brain Guy"- says is this:

Our brains are great dealmakers. In particular, our brains

want good deals.

I was thinking about this on a walk with my husband

yesterday here in Boulder. I was grappling with a new change,

one that I was not feeling right about at all.

And I realized that when it came down to it, I did not feel

as if I was getting a good deal. I was changing something old

for something new, and the new did not register as a good

deal in my mind.

As it turned out, I was wrong about my fear. As it turned

out, this change ended up being a FANTASTIC deal.

The fear went away, and I was happier. Think about this

as it relates to food-- when making better decisions are

you trading chips, guac and margs with your friends on

a sunny deck for salad and beans alone?

That is not a good deal in my mind. So think about the changes

you want to make as a series of deals you make with

yourself.

Become a good dealmaker, and let me know the deals you

cut with yourself!! (The PT Leaders Team is a great place

to let us know things.)

And I will let YOU know the new deals I cut with myself.

I felt like I had discovered fire when I made this

connection!!

This Is Now A Top 10 Cause Of Death In The US

According to a recent study at Harvard University --

Omega-3 deficiency is officially one of the top 10 causes

of death in America .

This is a big deal, and why we are laser focused on the

issue of fish oil QUALITY and DOSAGE. The vast

majority of you are not getting the right quality and

dosage of Omega-3's. Here is a note from Dr. Steven

Sisskind, who I know well, and who is one of the sweetest

doctors I know.

"For all the talk about fish oil being the "cure all" of our time, I find it ironic that 95% of fish oil being sold and consumed is being delivered in a form that is not ideally absorbed by the body.

And I don't say that lightly.

The problem comes from the way fish oil is processed.

In ancient times, fish oil was a staple. It had a long tradition and everyone understood its nourishing and energizing effects.

Even soldiers in the Roman army were given a ration of fish oil to support their strength, stamina and clarity of mind.

But back then, fish oil was made by hand and was usually fermented. This allowed for the fish oil to be transported and eliminated the danger of it spoiling.

Today, the process is much different and not nearly as effective.

Because almost all of the fish we eat contains heavy metals like mercury, fish oil must be decontaminated using a method called "molecular distillation." Of course, making sure your fish oil is free from heavy metals and other toxins is critical, but the way they take out the toxins creates a new problem.

When found in nature, omega-3 fatty acids are in their natural triglyceride form (TG). However, in order to to purify the oil it is necessary to add ethanol (an industrial alcohol) to form a synthetic substrate.

In a vacuum, the mix is then distilled and the result is a concentrated omega-3 ethyl ester (EE) solution. Chemically, this new form replaces the glycerol backbone of the oil with ethanol.

The benefit is a pure fish oil, and the ability to concentrate the healthy omega-3's like DHA and EPA. This is why almost all of the "highly concentrated" fish oils are in the EE form.

However, research is now showing that although this form of fish oil can yield higher concentrations of omega-3s, there are some absorbability issues.

The EE Form of Fish Oil Is Not As Easily Absorbed

According to multiple published studies the EE version was up to 50% less absorbable¹ than the triglyceride form, and almost 300% less absorbable² than the triglyceride form if not taken with a high fat meal.

So if you are going to take the EE form, make sure to consume it with a high fat meal at the very least.

What most people don't know is that manufacturers can in fact convert the omega-3 concentrated EE form back into the healthy triglyceride form.

But manufacturers do NOT do it because the costs are significantly higher.

So instead, they sell you "powerful" fish oil that you have a hard time absorbing. Even worse, very few (if any) manufacturers of the EE form indicate that it is EE on the bottle.

How to Tell if Your Concentrated Fish Oil is EE or TG

This is a cool experiment (and fun for the kids).

1. Get some small Styrofoam cups and put them on some paper towels.
2. Take 3 of your fish pills and empty the liquid into one cup.
3. Get a certified TG form bottle of fish oil and empty 3 of those into another cup.
4. Wait 10 minutes.
5. Come back and take a look!

If the cup has disintegrated, your pills are the EE form. If they are TG, there will still be liquid in the cup and very little if any disintegration.

Why this happens is under debate. I find it a little unsettling to watch the EE form eat into the cup... but remember we are not made of Styrofoam so it is doubtful the EE form is doing any actual damage.

It is simply not as powerful as advertised.

Stay tuned and I can share more about the benefits of the concentrated TG form.

Until next time,

Steven Sisskind, M.D.

P.S. As you may have guessed, when we formulated our Omega-3 product we chose TG over EE even though it costs more. We also did two other things to make our Omega-3 product better than the rest.

Drink THIS And Lose FAT (A New High Quality Shortcut Called Athletic Greens)

One of the single best success tips that I can give anyone is to
focus on HIGH QUALITY SHORTCUTS. One of the best new shortcuts

we have come across is Athletic Greens. It is the best tasting product

in its class, and we have tested them all.

These are things that make healthy eating almost a no-brainer. I
realized this talking to my friend Julie who I have known since
college.

Julie has more on her plate than anyone I know. Some of it she
chose to take on, some of it was thrust upon her. But she deals,
she's great and I love her.

She hears all the things I have to teach her, but is always saying,
"Jackie, can't you just put all that in a little package and send it
to me."

So I am always thinking about Julie's struggles, and how she needs
things made as easy as possible.

The things that we recommend to you here at PEERtrainer- the ideas,
products, books etc --these are all things that do ourselves and
recommend to our friends and family.

We came across something new to us, and incredibly unique and special.

And Julie, if you are reading this email, this is literally for you.

We all know that we need to eat more fruits and vegetables to
improve the nutrient density of our diet. As Dr. Fuhrman has taught
us, our health and weight is determined in a large part by the

amount of micronutrients we eat.

Micronutrients are the things in plants, fruits and vegetables. For
a variety of reasons (usually time and convenience) we all (even
me) have a hard time getting enough in our diet.

We recently came across a new product called Athletic Greens,
which we believe to be the single best micronutrient supplement
out there.

We were introduced to them by another company who said that

they decided not to go into this market for a greens-based "mega

nutrient" supplement- because Athletic Greens was so good

there was literally no room to improve upon it.

We have been looking for a greens supplement to promote for

years. Most of the green mixes we have come across taste

like grass. That is fine if you are extremely motivated, and

can drink it down quick before a run.

But my friend Julie is just not going to do that.

Julie wants something that tastes good. And she probably wants

it available in small packages because she is always on the

move.

(Jules- get this stuff in packs right here. And keep a container

of the stuff for the rest of your posse.)

What Is In Athletic Greens?

There are 75 ingredients that contain absolutely no synthetic chemicals, artificial colors, flavors, preservatives or sweeteners of any kind, no GMO's, herbicides, or pesticides, no wheat, dairy, gluten, corn, lactose, sucrose, dextrose, egg, yeast, or peanuts and no animal products.

The Ingredients Are In 4 Categories

Alkaline, RAW, Extremely Nutrient-Dense Greens.
This is nature's bounty, a careful selection of the highest quality, highest efficacy superfoods on the planet, naturally packed with goodness. These ingredients are freeze-dried to preserve their molecular structure. They are then cold-milled (hot-milling damages enzymes and nutrients) and blended gently into the formula.

Nutrient-Dense, Natural Extracts, Herbs, and Antioxidants.
They are extracted from high quality, raw foods, providing naturally occurring antioxidants, herbs, and phytonutrients. ONE serving of Athletic Greens contains the antioxidant equivalent of 10-12 servings of fruit and vegetables (ORAC 5000).
Pre and Pro Biotics, Naturally Occurring Digestive Enzymes.
These ingredients help your gut function properly, thereby letting you absorb nutrients better. (By the way, once you open your Athletic Greens, please keep it in the fridge or freezer).

Minerals.
Essential for body functions. Magnesium alone is responsible for over 300 biochemical reactions in the human body, from maintaining muscle and nerve function to supporting protein synthesis. Likewise, chromium and vanadium help regulate blood sugar levels and insulin, while zinc and selenium control a host of biological functions ranging from maintaining healthy hormone levels to regulating the immune system. The challenge is absorbing them in sufficient quantity and quality, especially for athletes consuming a nutrient-parched, over-farmed diet. Athletic Greens takes care of your mineral requirements. Every mineral in this formula was selected for optimal quality and optimal absorption.

Great For Smoothies:

Each serving is one heaping tablespoon. For those of you who are

already blending greens into your smoothies you might want to

try adding a half-tablespoon to the mix.

This helps to turn the shakes into a more all in one thing without

the added sugar.

100% Guarantee

They offer a complete, no questions-asked refund. They even say

that you can return an entire empty container for a refund.

We are so excited to have found this company, and we look forward

to hearing how you like it, your questions, suggestions, recipe

tips.

Sandy's "Stacking" Success Formula That Helped Her Lose 87 in 1 Year!

This is AWESOME and a MUST READ!!

We are in the process of gathering some great PEERtrainer members into a new Facebook group. If you want to join the link is here:

https://www.facebook.com/groups/ptleaders/

Sandy just joined this morning and posted this comment:

"You guys are my second family and my true inspiration keeping me well informed and motivated on my healthy journey. I've lost 87 lbs now in a year, and have about 28 more to go. I look forward to the new programs and ideas you guys have in store for us. I'm just finishing the On Track program now. "

We asked her to share a bit more about how she accomplished this life-altering achievement.

She replied:

"My success is the the result of your "stacking" principle, and not being perfect. That is where I started."

BINGO!!

If there is one thing that defines what we have done at PEERtrainer over the years, it is to stack tool after tool after tool.

It is so awesome to see someone like this really embrace our open model here with such success. She was open to our partners, our different programs, some of the products we recommend. She does the pea/rice shakes daily. It all works so well together and we could not be happier for Sandy!!

(For those of you new to PEERtrainer, the starting point for anyone who will succeed is the Success Index Quiz==> http://success.peertrainer.com When you finish that quiz, you are sent 2 recipe guides and a copy of our Cheat System Weight Loss Plan for free.)

We got another private message in that same group today from Tina, who is a long time member of the PT community. Here is what she said:

"I'm so sad that the 12 weeks of the On Track program is finished! I so looked forward to checking my dashboard every Monday for the next exciting edition. I must say that my main goal for starting the program has been achieved. That goal was to fully get back into all the good habits I formed in 2007 when I first started PEERtrainer and lost 70 lbs. I had somehow gone off track and couldn't seem to get a grip again.

Starting the program gave me what I needed to get back into the game, and the 22 lbs I lost is a by-product!. And this time it feels different... I feel like I have all the tools (including the hypnosis sessions) never to get so lost again. I have changed forever and made even more changes this time than I did before.

I feel fantastic and I have no doubts that I will reach my ultimate goal and stay there this time! I feel like I can weather any storm and even if I stray, I realize that I can dig into my tool box and turn that around. I will stay in the On Track team because it really helps my resolve and I want to stay in touch with all the great like-minded people! Thanks again!"

This was a great comment because the very first group of people is now finishing the new 3 month On Track program, and we are so happy to see that we are getting the exact results we wanted.

With new programs like these, people want to see others "go first" and see how things go. Well, they are going really really well, and fit very well into the stacking formula that gave Tina and Sandy such great success.

We have a half-off sale for those of you joining the next group of people in the On Track program. We are going to keep it open a little longer to make sure people understand the success we are having.

ALSO- we have now added the whole hypnosis program as a bonus. So at $47.50 for 3 months of potentially life altering material- just a great deal.

Join OnTrack Right Now:

http://www.peertrainer.com/ontrack

-Jackie

PS: Someone JUST emailed me to ask if they could take OnTrack again, for free like we do with the Cleanse. We had not thought about that, but YES, of course makes total sense. Especially with all the great support that people are seeing with the PEERtrainer Team.

So for those of you who did it before, just ping our team and ask to join again!!

Join OnTrack Right Now:

http://www.peertrainer.com/ontrack

PPS: Sandy also mentioned that RealDose WLF#1 was part of her stacking formula. As we get more reports in from people using that we are sharing that. Here is the link:

http://www.realdose.com/offers/Peer/444f1a79

This is the same link I use to buy this for my own use btw. I use this along with my Thorne Detox Nutrient Packs. Which I also buy myself. I get deals on both of course because we sell or promote them. But the point here is that this is what I am doing myself.

How To Slow Digestion, Making You Feel Fuller And More Nourished

How To Slow Digestion, Making You Feel Fuller And More Nourished

Rene asked us a question recently, she said she had been "enjoying and benefiting from PEERtrainer over the last year" and has been using the shakes and the kits that we have been providing as part of our overall Cleanse effort.

She mentioned that she had stomach issues prior, and really felt a lot better. And she wanted to know why the GI Kit in particular worked.

Here is Brian's answer:

"The GI Support Kit offered in conjunction with the Cleanse is a great addition. While we don't typically think of the gut as being the most important of organs, deferring to others like the kidneys and liver, the fact of the matter is that the gut has a huge role to play not just in our digestive comfort but our health as a whole.

The gut can influence a number of aspects of our health. People with poor gut function often have small 'cracks' in their small intestine that let larger, less digested food particles into our blood.

Our body is not prepared to deal with undigested food in the blood and so it gets rid of it the same way it gets rid of any invader: launching an immune attack. Inflammation results, and over time systemic inflammation grows and begins to affect the rest of our body as well, from the joints to the blood vessels and heart.

Even our gut bacteria help determine how our body reacts to stress, inflammation, and disease. Depending on whether we've cultivated good, healthy gut bacteria or bad gut bacteria, we can either balance our immune system to react well to any threat or tip the balance towards either an over-active immune system or systemic inflammation.

This is where the GI Support Pack comes in. The GI Support Pack is formed of three supplements: Bio-Gest, Bacillus Coagulans, and Berberine.

Bio-Gest is a digestive enzyme supplement. All of the food we eat is broken down by enzymes into simple units, whether they be simple sugar like glucose (monosaccharides), amino acids from proteins, or free fatty acids.

The better we can break food down, the less likely it is to enter the blood undigested if there are any cracks in your tubing. Furthermore, even if you have no leaks, the better you digest it the more nutrients you can ultimately obtain.

The Bacillus Coagulans is a probiotic and will help your gut support a healthy bacterial population. Our gut will always have bacteria, and whether it is good or bad is up to you. If your diet consists of simple, fiber-poor carbohydrates and fatty meats, then the wrong type of bacteria will end up propogating. A healthy and fiber-rich diet, and probiotics like Bacillus Coagulans, help push the balance back towards maintaining a healthy population.

Berberine is often the supplement which gets the most questions. Unlike digestive enzymes and probiotics, which are beginning to become fairly common supplements, berberine is still relatively unknown. However, berberine could be one of the most important of the trio! Berberine has two primary actions which are beneficial for the gut.

First, some research suggests that Berberine can slow down the perstaltic waves in the small intestine--this means that food is moved more slowly through it. Slower transit in the small intestine means more nutrient ingestion and a longer period of "fullness".

Second, berberine is relatively poorly absorbed compared to other phytochemicals which allows it to act topically on the small and large intestine. Berberine is a potent anti-inflammatory, and by acting topically it can significantly improve inflammation in the small intestine and colon. As with inflammation anywhere in the body, an inflamed digestive system is less effective than a healthy one!

In summary, the combination of the GI Support Pack helps your body digest food better, support a healthy gut flora, and reduces local inflammation in the gut. Together, they help your digestive system return to a normal, healthy state!

How To Make A Yummy Breakfast Shake That Keeps You Full Till 1PM

This breakfast shake success formula helps you burn fat by taking sugar and bad carbs OUT of the equation for you at breakfast time. Breakfast is the meal that sets your metabolic tone for the day, and you literally can choose whether you burn fat or store fat. When you reduce sugar and carbs in the morning, you program your body to use fat for fuel.

Step 1. You need a high quality, preservative and chemical free vegetable protein. A pea/rice or pea/potato protein is absorbed and digested more slowly than whey or soy, which helps you stay fuller, longer. Whey is absorbed rapidly, which is why bodybuilders like it. Additionally, both soy and whey can trigger a variety of sensitivities in people, which disrupt hormonal balance and trigger weight loss resistance. (source)

Step 2. You need a source of high quality fiber. Fibermend is an ideal option because it tastes great and mixes EASILY.

With fiber you want to start low and then slowly increase over time. The deal with fiber is that it helps fill up your stomach, and is also excellent for digestion and helps to improve your natural detoxification processes. The combination of protein and fiber is proven to help you feel full. Increased levels of fiber in the diet are associated with lower levels of heart disease.

Step 3. You need a high quality coconut milk like So Delicious. The fat in coconut milk gives you a ton of energy which your body uses. This is the hardest concept for most of us to understand, because we have been conditioned to think that that all fat is bad.

Be open to the idea that certain kinds of fat can boost your energy, and are in fact quite good for you. Bottom line is that coconut milk (the refrigerated drinking kind) helps you lose weight and feel full. (source)

Step 4. The first three steps are the most important ingredients in this proven success formula. From here you need to add different flavorings and ingredients- these are usually things that appeal to your tastes and the things you are familiar with.

For those of you who understand the power of drinking blended greens, a handful of kale thrown into this mix adds micronutrients that help you feel even more full. And the best part is that people report that you absolutely don't taste anything "green" because of the great vanilla/chocolate flavor combo.

There is also some natural sodium from the pea protein, so it is like eating one of those chocolate sea salt bars which are flying off shelves!

Recipe: Chocolate Decadence Breakfast Shake

Free Shake Recipe Cookbook Offer From PEERtrainer:

Vegetable protein, low sugar breakfast shakes are an ideal food to help you lose weight because they easily crowd out the traditional breakfast foods that trigger fat storage. We have put together a series of recipes, plus OTHER Lunch and Dinner ideas to help plan your day:

A Proven Way To Get Slimmer By The Summer (+This Ends Tomorrow)

For every single one of us, there is at least ONE thing we did incredibly

well. Our phones can be a great tool for distraction- but they can also be

a great tool to remind us to live the lives we want to live. The phone can

be a very very good friend to you if yo u ask it to.

Think about one thing you want to accomplish- and set a daily reminder

into your phone to get that done. You'll be surprised how well it works!

Maybe "Thin By The Pool" or "Toned For The Boat" "Slimmer By Summer"

are things to program into your phone, set to go off at 8am each morning,

including weekends!

We are running a Stock Up For Summer sale, which is scheduled to end

tomorrow. The code is PTGREENGRASS,which gives you 20%

saving in our shop and our programs:

http://shop.peertrainer.com

For those of you new to the PEERtrainer community, our mission here is

to guide you to a series of tools that will help you bolt on different

success habits, one by one. Our approach works incredibly well, because

change is hard. And our approach makes it DOABLE.

You want changes to be easy. One of the easiest changes, especially on the

breakfast front has been getting people to shift away from traditional

milk, cereal, bread and juice breakfasts, and toward things that set you

up for much more energy and feeling full as you start your day.

http://shop.peertrainer.com/shakes

When you start your day with a pea/rice or pea/potato protein shake,

mixed with a little fiber, coconut milk, some greens or berries- you

set your day up for success. It is that simple. The shakes in our shop

are literally the best in the world.

Whey protein is for body builders and soy can be highly reactive. The

pea/rice and pea/potato proteins absorb slowly, keeping you full

longer. The whey protein goes into your system a lot more quickly.

This is good if you are a bodybuilder after a workout, but not as ideal

for a busy person starting their day, and wanting to stay full and energized

until 1pm!

This is the #1 good habit that we see people be able to EASILY do,

and the shake reorder rates that we see prove this. Super easy,

stock up now:

http://shop.peertrainer.com/shakes

The Hormone Reset Cortisol Kit is another item in the shop that we

are so happy that people are developing into a habit. This kit

includes Rhodiola and Relora, which are two things that have

been studied and recommended up and down. Dr. Sara Gottfried

who helped us build our Hormone Reset Program, strongly

recommends these.

And we see people reorder them, again and again. Getting your cortisol

down is easier said than done, but it is as important a goal as

any other one you have. This is a biggie. A lot of you took advantage

of the amazing deal we arranged for that program during Sara's

book launch. (She ended up #5 on the NY Times Best Seller List!!)

And a great way to stay on track with that whole protocol is

to include these supplements with your Cheat System eating

style:

http://shop.peertrainer.com/hormone-reset-cortisol-kit-30-day-supply

Our new work with Dr. Daniel Amen is also getting us focused

on the critical importance of brain health. 1500 of you completed

a survey designed by Dr. Amen to identify a series of risk

factors that indicate an unhealthy brain. On one question, 73% of

you said your memory was worse than it was 10 years ago.

According to Dr. Amen, memory loss is not just "a part of getting

older." It is an indicator that your brain is not working as well

as it could, which is a warning sign of overall health decline.

Simple changes in your diet, like stopping the traditional type of

breakfast, can play a big role in turning things around. Omega 3

oils like Krill Oil can also play a huge role. The deal with Krill

Oil is that you don't get "the burps" like you do from Fish Oil:

http://shop.peertrainer.com/krill-oil

A funny thing that we just learned about fish oil burps is that

they are actually a sign of high fish oil quality. If you take

fish oil, and are getting those fishy burps, it means you are taking

a quality ingredient!!

Here is a list of other things people have been taking advantage

of the last few days:

Relora Plus: Helps to manage stress related eating and

help manage body weight.

http://shop.peertrainer.com/relora-plus

Daily Nutrient Packs: A high quality daily multi

free of all the junk you see in other ingredient lists:

How To Build Muscle, Complete Guide To Muscle Recovery

We want to share two new guides that we have published recently on PEERtrainer. The first is a comprehensive guide to muscle building, with contributions from 3 different people, including James Lavalle who is one of the leading advanced nutrition experts in the world.

How To Build Muscle

The second guide was built to help people with the muscle recovery process.

Complete Guide To Muscle Recovery

We also mention a series of supplements in the how to build muscle guide, and we have those all here.

http://shop.peertrainer.com/performance

The code SPRING10 expired today, but we just turned it back on, and you can use it there. And in the rest of the shop:

http://shop.peertrainer.com

I'm sharing this today because of my own personal transformation in the area of strength training. I have been one of those people who for whatever reason did not prioritize this. And that has been changing for me!

When you build muscle, you replace fat at a one to one ratio. That is benefit #1.

The second benefit is that it reduces your odds of getting some of the scary diseases when you get older.

The research proves this. Additionally, it gives you a slight boost in testosterone, which only results in you having more energy. Women have 15 to 20 times less testosterone than men, so you are not going to bulk up unless you are taking something!

-Jackie and the PEERtrainer Team

PS: I recorded an incredible call with Dr. Daniel Amen today, and we will be getting that out to you in the next few weeks. VERY interesting discussion about the brain, his work, and his response to the survey that 1500 of you filled out!

Also, if you have not taken the PEERtrainer Success Index yet, do so here. You'll get a free copy of our Magic Fridge Recipe Guide and the new Cheat System Recipe Guide:

"Why Have I Allowed Myself To Gain This Much?" (6 Reasons This Might Be True For You)

We are going through some questions that people are asking us as they complete the 4th week of the Point Of No Return Program and I think the answers will be of interest to everyone.

This program is something that we built many years ago and is designed for people who have a great deal of knowledge about WHAT to do, but are looking for help following through.

For many people, only going on a certain program doesn't work for the long term. When people start to focus on the mindset aspects of decision making, success improves.

The studies and data show this. Like we always say, the best advice you can ever get is to know that it is NEVER just one thing. For many people, opening their mind to changing their thinking can be the thing that helps them break through.

Here are the questions. (The third one really got our attention)

Question: What is the best way to incorporate this into an everyday part of my

life?

Answer: Fully commit to absorbing the information, and know that there is

never ever just one thing. Commit to starting a process where you open

your mind as fully as you can.

Question: How can I stop "fighting the same old fight?"

Answer: Stop doing the same old thing. It sounds flippant, but this is the

truth. So many of us get conditioned to do things a certain way that a lot

of our behavior becomes an unconscious thing. Respect that it takes time

to create new beliefs.

Question: Why have I "allowed myself to gain this much weight?"

Answer: That is a great question to ask. The first reason is usually that in your environment there is nothing to indicate that something has gotten out of control. No internal alarm bell, no external pressure.

The second is that the pain of what you may be going through in your life- that pain is so much greater than your "few extra pounds." What you might be going through is so much worse.

The third thing that might be going on is that you have become so disillusioned with all the things you have tried, that are not working, that you have decided to live with the new you. The people you see in your life who are thinner you think have different genetics and have it easier than you.

The fourth idea for you is that it COULD be that you are such a perfectionist that you think that anything LESS than perfect won't work, so why bother.

Fifth, you might be so busy beating yourself up about all the things you are doing wrong, that you lack the mental space to even consider where to start.

Sixth, as Dr. Sara likes to say we are so busy trying to "tend and befriend everyone else in our life" there is not even a minute left to put that love back on ourselves.

Everyone is different, their specific reasons different. extend beyond this list. As an exercise, think about your own reasons.

And if you feel as if you know what do to, but need some help following

through, I'd really encourage you to try this 12 week program.

(To encourage people to try this program, we are opening

our half-off offer for the next 24 hours. We also offer a complete guarantee

for 30 days. This program is delivered digitally via email and

you can start immediately. Click here for more information and

to sign up. The discount gets applied when you check out)

The regular price is $77 and for the next 24 hours we are offering it

at $38.50

This page explains a ton more, and tells you the exact things you

will learn over the 12 weeks. There is one major module a week

so this is not a huge commitment.

You need to set aside about 30 minutes per week, and for many

people just learning to take this small amount of time for themselves

is a huge win!

There have been a lot of people who have experienced success

on this program, but the main thing that we promise is that

this will help to INCREASE your belief in your own ability

to make some permanent changes.

This program was built with the assumption that you have tried

a lot of things, read a lot of books, but need some help putting

it all together. And maybe helping you focus on the right areas

and away from some of the things that are not working for you.

Click Here To Learn More.

And if you have already done Point Of No Return, we are going

to tee up another offer for the next one in the series tomorrow!

The Link Between Your Diet And Your Brain Health (70% Of You Are In A "Concern Zone")

We sent this out a few days back, and we included a survey that our friend Dr. Daniel Amen helped us put together.

If you are not familiar with his work, he is one of the leading brain experts in the world, and has really helped show us a) the critical importance of brain health, and b) how brain health is totally connected to a healthy diet among other things.

Basically all the things we pull OUT OF the diet during the cleanse and the things that we ADD TO the diet are very good for the brain.

This quiz that we sent out measured some of the top signs that your brain is not as healthy as it could be. We showed your responses to Dr. Amen yesterday and there were 2 things that he pointed out.

1. The first question had to do with memory, and 73% of you said it was worse than it was 10 years ago. Dr. Amen's response was that this is a "vulnerable group for Alzhiemer's disease" and that we can "do a great service by getting them on the right path."

2. Question four had to do with depression, anxiety, trouble sleeping and generally not having your mood where it needed to be.

Obviously a broad area but 72.1% of you indicated some trouble here. Dr. Amen mentioned that in this group there is likely a lot of medication being taken and that there are a lot of ways that people can be doing "better."

We have some great stuff planned with Dr. Amen coming up, including a segement on how the Fresh Start Cleanse can help get you on track for better brain health, and also the things you can do in addition to help your brain.

We are also going to be doing a webinar where we go into greater depth about this survey and answer your questions.

The Message From A Couple Days Back If You Missed It!

We have new, very exciting stuff we are working on at PEERtrainer, with literally the best people in the world.

And for the next week, we are going to be pushing you in some new ways to help you build some massive positive momentum going into pool, beach, lake and boat season.

The season when you can't hide as well as you can in other seasons!

We are also going to be adding some new material to the Fresh Start Cleanse, adding some material that relates to better brain function, better libido function, better sleep and really using the cleanse as a leverage point to feel better in a bunch of different ways.

We want to make sure that we are on target with what you need with this new material, and have prepared the following short survey that might interest you:

The 9 Warning Signs That Your Brain and Sexual Health Is In Trouble

The next Fresh Start Cleanse Starts April 22nd. The first new bonus that we are adding is something called "How To Cleanse Your Fatigue" with Jen Landa, MD. Jen has been on Dr. Oz twice in the last couple months, and has caught his attention with her work helping treat the fallout of being overtired.

I'm going to be with Jen this weekend in Miami, so if there is anything you want to know in the whole idea of "feeling less tired and fatigued, hit reply to this email.

A bunch of us are there to help celebrate JJ's birthday, and we will all be needing some cleansing after this weekend!

We will be running the JJ book promo again. People liked that, and all you need to do is go to this link and get a copy of her book or ebook version if you have not already.

Then go to the Fresh Start Cleanse page and use the code JJBOOK55 to get $55 off any of the cleanse programs.

For those of you who have done the cleanse before, you have access to all new material that we add, and you can join the cleanse as many times as you want.

We also have another bonus we are working on, and will announce that when the details are nailed down!

Fun stuff. Big thing I want us all to focus on is keep building momentum as we head into "fewer clothes season." All you need is a little. It doesn't need to be this crazy overwhelming amount of action.

Just a few better choices tucked in here and there can do the trick. And for those of you who want to tackle stomach puffiness and be less squishy, come join us for the April 22nd Cleanse.

Here are a couple comments that I just saw in the current cleanse team:

Down 7 lbs as of today which is AMAZING. My skin is the best I have seen it in years and fit into pants I haven't been able to fit into for 2 yrs now counting calories and eating all the wrong 'healthy' foods.
utepminer, 4/11/2013 11:10:45 AM

Down 5 lbs. since the start of the cleanse and feel so much better. My gut was surely stressed before I started. I no longer have that feeling of a brick sitting in my stomach.. Went to the doctor yesterday and discussed the inability to lose weight over the last year and she chalked it up to age and slow metabolic rate and said to start following a Paleo type diet. I told her how bad I have felt and the symptoms I had been having and how I am feeling now since starting the cleanse and she said I must have been having an issue with gluten and/or dairy. Ha!
rdmassey, 4/11/2013 9:24:57 AM

These results are in the middle of the range that we have seen from people doing this program. This includes those who lose little to no weight because they fall off track or don't need to lose in the first place, and includes people who lose more than that range.

And please make sure to fill out this short quiz:

A Question About The Sodium In Protein Shakes (And The Answer!)

We got this question from Tracey this past Sunday:

"I have a question: I love the Thorne Research Vega Lite - I have NEVER stopped using it every morning ever since my first cleanse.

My question is this: Why does it have so much sodium? I have shared this with a few friends and as soon as the look at the sodium they freak! I am fine, but I do not know what to say.

Thank you in advance for your help!"

Answer from the PEERtrainer "Nutrition Supercenter":

The reason the Vegalite has so much sodium is because of the pea protein. Pea protein is naturally high in sodium, so that's why there are 400 mg per serving. The chocolate has some sodium chloride (NaCl, table salt) in it, but is only 20 mg higher in sodium than the vanilla--I think the NaCl is probably just a part of the chocolate flavor they add, but it adds only a minimal amount more.

Unfortunately, there's not really such a thing as low-sodium pea protein. Still, if the rest of their diet is clean (as it should be on the cleanse!), then getting 800 mg of sodium per day isn't an issue, and they'll still have another 700 mg of 'discretionary' sodium before hitting the AHA's suggested max of 1,500 mg.

The vast majority of added sodium in the average person's diet comes from processed foods like pasta, pizza, cold cuts, cheese soups and fast foods. And your body does need sodium to function properly to transmit nerve impulses and maintain fluid levels.

What is interesting about Tracey's comment that she never stopped using the Thorne Shakes since doing her first cleanse.

This is an observation that we see over and over. People do the shakes for the first time, and do them right. Or they switch from soy or whey based formulas and feel much better as a result.

With whey, you need to keep in mind that this is protein that comes from a pregnant female cow. It doesn't matter how grass-fed or all natural it might be- it still comes from a hormonally charged substance that is designed to help GROW a very large animal.

Tracey's behavior pattern is something that we see over and over, it just works for her and many others. And that is really the key because the only thing that matters are the actions we take daily.

The shakes are a thing that help make better action possible and much easier!

We have several different non-why and non-soy shake options in the PEERtrainer Shop, and we also have a 10% coupon code SPRING10 to help you out. Done right, shakes become a VERY cost effective way to start the day:

http://shop.peertrainer.com/shakes

For very active men who want or need to rebuild muscle whey can be an effective tool, and we do sell that in our store through the new Thorne Perfomance Line:

http://shop.peertrainer.com/performance

But from the research that our team and network of experts is seeing out there, the pea/rice and pea/potato combos have plenty of protein so that you really don't ever need the whey, especially women who are already dealing with hormonal balance issues!

The SPRING10 coupon code is also good across the shop:

http://shop.peertrainer.com/

For those of you new to shakes, it can take a couple times to get your own recipe right. Some people like the shakes thick, others prefer less thick which means less fiber.

For those of you who like a nice Chocolate flavor, this recipe has been a very popular one, and keep in mind that you want to work the different flavors to find what YOU like:

8 Causes Of Female Hair Loss (And What You Can Do About It!)

Approximately 30% of women in their 30's and 50% of women 50 plus experience hair loss that exceeds the norm.

According to Dr. Sara Gottfried, most women don't realize this is a problem until it is too late. It is normal to lose 50 to 100 hairs a day.

We only notice it when we lose more!

It is a common attitude among physicians that this is a vanity issue. But it is an important issue for women who are getting older and want to age gracefully.

The good news is that most of the time hair loss is reversable or the process can be slowed down. At PEERtrainer we have created a brand new program with Dr. Gottfried that explains in detail each of the 8 major causes of female hair loss.

The program then walks you through a detailed protocol that is all natural, and does not involve any drugs. As a Harvard trained physician, and MIT trained engineer, Dr Sara Gottfried understands what most conventionally trained physicians do not. (Her latest book on balancing female hormones naturally recently hit the NY Times best-seller list.)

This program is easy to digest, and is broken out in the following way:

2 Part Audio Course, Approximately One Hour Each
Full transcript of each of the courses, 30 Written Pages Total
The Entire Program Condensed Into 5 Pages Of Cliff Notes For Super Easy Digestion and Review
Optional Hairloss Labs Worksheet

We priced the program at $26, and are offering a huge discount to get as many people familiar with Dr. Gottfried's hair loss protocols as possible. This is truly cutting edge stuff, and we are proud to be able to offer this at such a great price for a few days.

--->Buy Program Here For $10<---

This offer will end shortly!

PS: For those of you new to Dr. Gottfried's work, we have created a webinar that teaches you the 3 hormones that are at the ROOT CAUSE of you feeling fat, cranky, overwhelmed and not wanting to have sex. These 3 hormones are also at the ROOT CAUSE of your food, sugar and wine cravings! Enter your email to be sent this right now>>

Is Coconut Sugar Better Than Cane Sugar?

We were sent this question, and had Brian provide the response:

I recently discovered Coconut Sugar at the store. In comparing it to cane sugar, it doesn't look different, but the packaging indicates that it is somehow better for you. What do you think?

Answer:

Coconut sugar is primarily sucrose. Sucrose is the sugar most commonly referred to as "table sugar", and is formed of a glucose unit bonded to a fructose unit. Thus, like table sugar, coconut sugar is roughly 50% glucose and 50% fructose. Unlike table sugar, however, coconut sugar is far less refined and retains some additional benefits.

Coconut sugar is considered low-glycemic, despite its sugar content. There isn't a lot of research to suggest why coconut sugar affects our blood sugar differently than honey or cane sugar, but it consistently rates on a scale of 35-55. This is compared to table sugar which has a GI of 60.

Coconut sugar also retains some vitamins and minerals, although it's unlikely to contribute significant amounts. There are much better foods out there to get your daily nutrients from!

It should also be noted that coconut sugar is less sweet than regular table sugar. If you add extra sugar to make up for the sweetness, you will find that much of the benefit erodes away under the higher glycemic LOAD of the amount you are consuming.

Ultimately, it's important to remember that coconut sugar is still added sugar, and should be used sparingly. If you rarely consume added sugar, perhaps only stirring a teaspoon-full into your tea every now and again, then coconut sugar may be a better choice. If you're eating multiple teaspoons daily, however, it will still take its toll on your health, low glycemic index or not.

The Nutritional Difference Between Grass-Fed and Grain-Fed Beef: Fact Checking Dr. Oz

Someone in the PEERtrainer community pointed out a quote from Dr. Oz that left them confused. He had said that nutritionally, there is not much difference between grass-fed beef and grain-fed beef.

We asked Brian to take a look at this question and look at the science. Here is what he found:

"What a strange thing for Dr. Oz to say... it's not as if there is a lack of evidence, or even contradictory evidence as can sometimes be seen in organic vs. conventional studies.

As far as I'm aware, there has never been a single study demonstrating that grass-fed beef has a similar nutritional profile to grain-fed beef.

Even those who support grain-fed beef will admit that grass-fed beef is leaner, as the reason we feed grain to cattle in the first place is because it fattens them up so well and causes marbling (the fat invades the muscle).

Here are two (roughly) 4 oz. steaks (actually 100 grams), one grain-fed, the second grass-fed:

Grain-Fed Sirloin Strip:

Total Fat: 11 grams
Saturated Fat: 4 grams

Protein: 21 grams

Total Calories: 189

Calories from Fat: 100

Percentage Fat by Calories: 53%

Percentage Protein by Calories: 44%

Grass-Fed Sirloin Strip:

Total Fat: 3 grams

Saturated Fat: 1 gram

Protein: 23 grams

Total Calories: 117

Calories from Fat: 24

Percentage Fat by Calories: 21%

Percentage Protein by Calories: 79%

Total Fat Difference Between the Steaks: 8 grams

Total Sat. Fat Difference: 3 grams

Total Caloric Difference: 72 calories

Keeping in mind that the average person probably eats more than 4 oz. of steak, the difference only gets magnified as more gets consumed.

This isn't even touching the subject of differences between the fats. The grass-fed fat will have a much healthier profile--more omega-3s--than grain-fed, which will be very low in omega-3s and higher in the types of saturated fat which affect cholesterol.

The saturated fat in grass-fed is mostly "stearic acid", which doesn't cause cholesterol to increase. There is much more palmitic acid in grain-fed beef, the saturated fat which does increase serum cholesterol.

3 Things That Can Increase Your PEERtrainer Success Score (Which Reduces Your Scale Score!!)

Hi There-

The PEERtrainer Success Index has been out for about a month now,

and we are starting to get our first learnings from people who have

increased their score already. Here are 3 things you can do right now

to increase your score. Each "thing" has a key point listed out so

you can quickly scan this email:

1. This book by Brendon Burchard contains a wealth of great advice

and yes we do have some questions on the quiz that measure a couple

of the really key points that he teaches. One really important tip for

you here is that your success in weight, health or any aspect of your

life is directly tied with your ability to try new things, new ideas.

And not just ability, but also habit. It is one thing to say "yeah, I'm

a pretty open person" and another to be someone who is constantly

"sorting for new." And for those of you who already have a copy

of Brendon's book, flip to page 143 and re-read the chapter on

change.

Key Point: When you sort for new it becomes a lot easier to change

pretty much anything!

2. This book by Stu Mittleman is one that we have been recommending

for 4 years now. Stu teaches people the power of slowing down

and chilling out when you exercise. This is the piece of advice that

people are the most resistant to.

Key Point: When you slow down your exercise you will burn more

fat and not flood your body with cortisol!

3. Tip: For those of you read this tip about cortisol or any other tip

about cortisol and think "easier said than done"- this is why they

invented Relora Plus, which is an herbal formula that has been

shown in research to lower your cortisol, decrease feelings of stress,

improve your mood. The Metabolic booster pack in the PEERtrainer

Shop includes Relora Plus and some other goodies.]

Key Point: If you can't easily reduce the stress in your life, really be

open to the herbal options available to you.

And the RESET10 coupon code can be applied to any purchase in

the PEERtrainer Shop:

http://shop.peertrainer.com

-Jackie

PS: We are starting our new Cleanse TODAY, and I am doing it

myself along with all of you. I have my own bad habits, coffee

being at the top of the list. I'm going a little further than what JJ

recommends and totally eliminating it.

You can still join us last minute and get any of the "stuff" later.

We have a coupon code MARCH50 that you can use. We are

also now incorporating JJ's new book, The Virgin Diet, into

the course because it is such a great resource, and wealth of

information. Go to amazon and get a copy of the book or download

the ebook version, and then join us by signing up here:

How Fast Weight Loss Differs From The Hormone Reset Process

I want to make a really quick but important point to help set the expectations of those of you working on the hormone side of your health journey.

And that is- it takes a little longer to see a result. With the Cleanse, the average person experiences a concrete result within a certain amount of time. When you average the people who don't get an immediate result with the people who knock the lights out, the average loss is around 5 pounds during a 2-3 week period.

And people who get back On Track with the protocol that they know works, they also start to drop again.

Pretty consistent process. When it comes to the hormonal side of the equation, this is a totally different animal. The feedback we have been getting from people who have really dug in and applied the principles of the Gottfried protocol has been stunning- life changing stuff.

But you have to dig in, read the PDF's we have put together, get a copy of Sara's new book. We know how frustrating it can be to experience the symptoms Sara addresses and not get that fast result like you can in weight loss. But stick with it, and we are going to really be digging into this for you!

And be open to our approach of combining things. The more ideas you are open to, the more success you are going to have. Here is an email we got yesterday:

"Good morning. I'm into week 2 of the cleanse and week 3 (of PoNR). I've lost about 12 pounds, my energy level is much higher, my skin is noticeably better, and the joint pain in my knee and hip is much improved. My blood pressure has also improved greatly...from about 150/90 to 132/88. I couldn't ask for a better result."

Again, high end of the range. But this is what is possible. One tip we have for the whole "hormone" area of things is to really commit to the cortisol part of the equation. Sara says over and over that "all roads lead back to cortisol" so really dig in and know that there is a pretty clear roadmap you can put yourself on for fighting the cortisol beast!

A Breakfast Swap That Can Explode Your Weight Loss Success

We are analyzing the first responses to the PEERtrainer Success Index, and the results are fascinating. We are seeing pretty clearly the habits of people who score higher on the index, compared to those who score lower.

Get Your Success Index Score Here

One thing we are seeing that we can share with you right now (and we will be sharing more and more) is that people who shift away from "traditional" breakfast foods of yogurt, oatmeal, cereal and skim milk see their success explode.

The people who are scoring highest on the success index (in the mid 80's) have generally eliminated all dairy from their breakfast- even among people who indicate that dairy is one of their favorite foods.

These people are shifting towards coconut milk and almond milk as a source of protein, as well as eggs mixed with tons of veggies and greens.

Tons of people have made the shift away from whey and soy shakes, and are doing various pea/rice and pea/potato combos that are high in the nutrient dense foods that Dr. Fuhrman has help popularize. In fact, this Chocolate Decadence shake recipe was one that someone who lost 60 pounds in the last 6 months credited with helping them develop this great habit.

(Read Her Success Story Here)

We also know that a lot of people who are scoring lower have a higher resistance to trying new things.

This makes a ton of sense, because if you have not experienced a result, it is hard for you to believe it is possible!

If you have not gotten your number, you can do that right here. The great thing we are seeing is that once you start to experience the level of success that people scoring in the 80's are, you become addicted to the things that make you successful!

A long time PEERtrainer family member, Ricki, made that comment about becoming addicted to success.

It is possible!

This is a GREAT Story About Christinas Last 6 Months!

You have GOT to read this. On October 5th, 2012, we posted a comment from someone who had lost 15 pounds in one month. The same person posted a comment in the PEERtrainer Cleanse team on February 24th, and upped her loss to 60 pounds! This is really an amazing accomplishment!

"Hi everyone! I'm so happy to have a group of enthusiastic cleansers posting again. Hopefully this is not too long winded but I want to share my story with you. I started the PEERtrainer cleanse this past Sept after vacillating for almost a full year debating my ability to commit and truly make a change. You see I had reached a weight of 287 lbs at my heaviest and my health was failing fast. Broken bones and impossibly painful knees and hips were a great excuse for why I was so sedentary. I mean who could fault me for getting fat? I couldn't do anything about it, right? Medication was prescribed for one problem which then led to another to help with those side effects then another for something else that popped up.

Okay, I had to get off that merry-go-round but how. Where do I start? It felt like an insurmountable hill to climb. I think I was slowly killing my self with negativity and comfort food. I watched the videos with Jackie and JJ explaining what this cleanse could do and I wanted so badly to believe I could change where I was in my life. Everyday I was taking prescription drugs for high blood pressure, inflammation, depression and recently added problem of a heart condition.

I wrote to the PEERtrainer cleanse team and asked if someone could help me with an explanation of all of the detox supplements, pea/rice protein shake and changes that I would have to make in my food decisions. I worried that some of these elements would be a problem with all the pills I was taking everyday. I wanted to bring this information to my doctor to see if it was something I could do given all the added crap I was swallowing in the form of "medicine" every day.

PEERtrainer team member, Brian got back to me almost immediately with a complete breakdown of everything I would be ingesting if I went "all in" and did the shakes and support packs. I like to think of Brian as my guiding light on this path and I never fail to read his columns when they get posted on the site.

Armed with this information I spoke with my doctor to ask if this change would affect all of the meds I was taking. You know what she said? "Christina, at this point anything you do to improve your situation is a positive thing". Okay I decided, "I'm going to do this".

Do I jump in and spend $95 for the 2 week course or do I really commit and order the whole package. It was a big investment that I was hoping (but not really expecting) would help me get my life back on track. I ordered the shakes, detox pack and medibulk.

We still had several days before the course started and I followed JJ's advice and cleaned out my cupboards and refrigerator. It's really amazing to see the pile of crap (yes, crap) I had on hand. Out it went! I have no kids to feed so I know this may be harder for many of you but just make sure the things you hang on to are for them and not you.

Yippie my package from Thorne arrived, my refrigerator was stocked with coconut milk, spinach veggies and berries. All of it was organic. We still had a day before the cleanse started but I decided to go ahead and mix up a shake, it smelled yummy and chocolate. Okay, it's mixed and I taste it. S___ I hated the taste. I looked at my husband and he looked back at me and rolled his eyes as if to say "you really didn't think you were going to do this did you?"

I've now invested a big chunk into my new eating plan and I have to make it work. It's just 14 days I can do anything for 14 days, right? With each shake that I mixed I refined the ingredients until I got to the combination posted here in PEERtrainer as chocolate decadence. Yup! I'm that chocoholic.

2 days in and I was feeling the affects of detoxing. You will hear more about this as you move through the course. On day 4 I got on the scale and was down 3 lbs! Never have I lost weight that quickly. The team members were very helpful and you should take full advantage of the support you get with this program.

SORRY I WARNED YOU THIS WOULD BE LONG WINDED!

By the beginning of week 2 I could feel the waistbands getting looser and the puffiness in my face was going down. There also seemed to be a remarkable decrease in the inflammation I normally lived with and my daily bouts of heartburn disappeared. I have not had heartburn since Sept 10th when I started the cleanse. Seriously.

Committing financially by getting the whole detox kit really helped during week 1 when those shakes didn't taste like dessert and my dinner consisted of green, green and more green stuff. The improvement in my health and the super fast weight loss in week 2 helped reinforce my decision to stick with it when it would have been so easy to tell myself I would try again at another time.

This is my time! I have dropped a total of 60lbs (yes really solid 60 lbs)! I actually felt so much more confidence that I went out to celebrate New Years for the first time in 5 years. All of my clothes, the fat wardrobe and the skinny closet, have become too big for me. I don't want to buy more right now because I still have another 50 lbs to come off. I did buy a belt though and that keeps my pants up :)) I have also begun to shop and try on clothes in stores that I would never have even walked into because they would not have anything in my size.

The most amazing change of all for me has been in my health. I no longer require blood pressure medication, anti-inflammatory meds and decreased the levels of depression medication I need. During a visit to my doctor in November the nurse was so influenced by my improvements that she signed up for a cleanse and has begun dropping pounds as well.

With these improvements I am finally in a position where I can exercise. I actually like it and do plenty of research on the PEERtrainer into what works and what doesn't. I used to hear people say "I just love to do a workout, it makes me feel so much better" and roll my eyes thinking "yeah, right!".

So... I will stop talking now but I want to leave you with one thought. If you are thinking to yourself "I have so far to go I'll never get there" STOP! Take it from someone who has actually been there. Commit to the 14 days, go all in and you will see a big change. For the better!

It's been 6 months and I can't tell you where I'll be in another 6 months but I can say I won't be 280 pounds living stuck inside my house hoping I don't have to see people who will look at me with pity in their eyes. I'm alive and feeling better then I have since I was 18 going on 30 :))

If you are still on the fence or have a friend that is not quite sure I would be happy to share my thoughts. Set up your "Magic fridge" and enjoy the changes you will soon experience. Congratulations on your new beginning! flash2, 2/24/2013 4:54:01 PM"
