Fat Flush ®: The Healthiest Good Carb Diet Option
Ann Louise Gittleman - 3/24/2003

Although many of us are adopting a lower carb, higher protein and higher fat eating plan, most Americans are still missing the boat when it comes to long term health and quality nutrition. For starters, cutting out all carbs, including those antioxidant -rich, colorful vegetables and fruits, means losing out on rejuvenating chlorophyll, enzymes, vitamins, minerals and cleansing fiber. And this is just one of the reasons why Fat Flush ® is the healthiest low carb diet option of them all!

The Phytonutrient and Liver Connection

Not only can you drop at least two dress or pant sizes right from the start on the Two Week Fat Flush ® phase, but the “must eat” foods that the total program consist of target the liver (the body’s premiere fat burning organ ) assuring lower cholesterol, balanced blood sugar, depression relief, better sleep, higher energy, and optimum breast and prostate protection.

In addition, there are both men and women who have lost up to 125 pounds (see Testimonials on fatflush.com) WITHOUT a trace of the hanging skin and “hang dog” look so common with those other high protein, low carb diets.

Why?

Each phase of the Fat Flush ® protocol (including Phase 1: The Two Week Fat Flush ®; Phase 2: Ongoing Weight Loss and Phase 3: The Lifestyle Program) includes mounds of cleansing veggies, thermogenic herbs and spices and a moderate amount of low-glycemic (slow acting) fruits which contain incredible phytonutrients that play a starring role in fortifying your immune system, fighting off premature aging and smoothing out the appearance of cellulite by strengthening the integrity of the connective tissues.

Here’s a helpful list of the signature low carb Fat Flushing foods rich in fat fighting and health protecting nutrients:

Phytonutrient

Where Found in Fat Flush®

Anthocyanins

unsweetened cranberry juice (all phases)
highest source of phenol based antioxidants that provide co-factors for the liver’s detox pathways and act as digestive aides to stubborn fatty deposits clogging up lympthatic system (body’s garbage collector)

Carotenoids

broccoli, spinach, yellow squash, turmeric sweet potato (phase 2 and 3)

Flavonoids

cabbage, lemons, cucumbers, tomatoes

Indoles

broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, kale (all phases)

Isoflavones

Limonoids

Organosulfur

garlic, leeks, onions, shallots (all phases)

Protease inhibitors

soy foods (all phases - only twice per week)



The Protein Connection: Quality Counts

On Fat Flush ®, not all protein is created equal.

Fat Flush ® recommends grass fed or pasture raised beef and lamb and organic poultry plus Omega 3 enriched eggs. Eating protein that is NOT organic will give you a huge dose of secondhand hormones, contributing to more estrogen excess in the body. The protein recommendation is at least 8 ounces per day of lean, organic protein (meat, fish, poultry, soy only twice per week), plus 1 whey serving and up to 2 eggs. Only protein can raise metabolism by 25% and activate the enzymes needed to breakdown toxins into water soluble substances for optimum cleansing.

Eggs are the highest dietary source of the amino acids taurine, cysteine, and methionine – all sulphur based aminos required by the liver to regulate bile production.

The Essential Fat Connection

Not all fats are created equal – either – on Fat Flush ®.

While the non-essential saturated fats certainly don’t deserve the decades of negative press, excessive amounts can block the body’s ability to effectively use and metabolize the essential fats. On Fat Flush ®, a daily supply of one to two tablespoons of high lignan flax seed oil helps to stop hunger, increase metabolism, and puts on lid on the deprivation and fatigue that often makes one cheat on other types of eating plans. Furthermore flaxseeds, are the world’s highest source of the phytohormone substance known as lignans so protective against breast and prostate cancer.

A daily dose of GLA in the form of black currant seed oil, borage or evening primrose oil helps to trigger fat burning instead of fat storage assisting in the control of PMS symptoms and warding off skin problems, rheumatoid arthritis and diabetic neuropathy. In the Lifestyle phase, daily CLA helps to burn fat, retain lean muscle mass and acts as a powerful antioxidant in the system.
