Mathematical Weight loss
My last post was about how your body can burn fat. It's when your blood sugar is stable - see also "blood sugar stability"
Well I've now put together a post following on from a little research and from my meetup with Mark Macdonald last week.
First I'll put together the factoids and make up the math
According to metafilter
Weight gain is basically math based on the fact that 3500 calories = 1 lb of weight with a little bit of hand-waviness based on what your basic metabolism is.
According to NHS choices website
An average man uses 2500 calories a day and a woman 2000
So a little math could give you
Every day you eat enough food to put on ~1lb
Every day you burn off ~1lb
Now where does your body burn it from
According to Mark MacDonald and the fact of physiology that our bodies take energy by burning fat when our blood sugar is stable (between 80 and 120) Our bodies burn muscle when our blood sugar is low and when our blood sugar is high, we store fat.
So here's the opportunity.
If we keep our blood sugar stable, our energy from everything we do
comes from burning fat. Any food we eat is going to keep our blood sugar stable and any exercise beyond the norm.

(4 shocking truths about UK GPs) MonaVie RVL - UK Health Care Professionals and Scientists Perspective
MonaVie RVL - UK Health Care Professionals and Scientists Perspective
As a representative for MonaVie RVL I wanted to get independent perspective and have sought the highest authorities on nutrition and obesity.
Currently a UK GP only gets 4 hours of training on Nutrition. That was shocking to me but then it is no surprise that there is a problem in the UK, Europe, the world in terms of malnourishment to the point of obesity.
So what are the factors and perspectives on obesity (being fat to you and me).
1. 50 years ago people ate more, but were more active.
The answer is not in the reduction of calories, it is in the increase of our metabolism.
Dr. Paul Clayton

2. Increasing your metabolism and stabilising your blood sugar is the way to
effect the burning of fat
stop your body storing fat

3. The UK NICE recommends the adoption of a balanced diet.
As one of only a few Specialist Exercise Instructors in Obesity and Diabetes Management in the UK I prescribe exercise and wellbeing interventions that comply with the NICE (National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence) Guidance on the prevention, assessment and management of overweight and obesity in adults and children. This Guidance requires [amongst other matters] the adoption of a balanced diet.
Mark Green
Personal Trainer | Exercise Referral Instructor |
Specialist Exercise Instructor (Obesity and Diabetes Management) - REPs Level 4
The current UK MonaVie RVL recommendation is that the monavie shake is taken between balanced meals to stabilise blood sugar and help burn fat. Only in this case is MonaVie RVL compliant with NICE guidelines.
4. MonaVie RVL has prebiotic which helps with digestive tract flora.
"My patients experience weight loss, improved bowel movement and their distended stomach is reduced"
"One of the challenges is that people skip meals, e.g. breakfast. I recommend them to at least have a RVL Shake if they are doing this as it contains a balance of Fats, Carbohydrates and Proteins... The ASEYE / ACAI Berry and its powerful antioxidants mop up any toxins associated with breakdown of fat in the body."
Christian Baytes, Osteopath
In addition the information gained at the MonaVie corporate presentation was that MonaVie contains a balance of nutrients, including ASEYE which is a natural wild fruit. There are no stimulants added to MonaVie RVL.

ACAI (Aseye) Berry Diet - now available links blood sugar levels to weight management
Weight loss using acai berry could not be easier.
Here's some information on how to obtain acai berry weight loss and nutrition.
Tweet
According to scientists and NY Times bestselling author Mark Macdonald, the normal range of blood sugar levels is between 80 and 120. Two interesting things happen when your blood sugar moves outside these ranges. This article presents how a knowledge of how to maintain steady blood sugar levels can help you to lose weight (burn fat) and build lean muscle (ripped or cut as Annie says)
1. Low blood sugar causes muscle loss
Here's an excerpt from http://www.survivediabetes.com/ketosis.htm
"Ketosis on liquid protein diets - low-fat, high-protein diets - caused deaths from heart failure because protein from the heart muscle was used for blood sugar. I actually have to make an effort to eat enough fat to make this way of eating work for me! I have lost only fat, not muscle mass, but I'm sure that if I ate too little fat or too few calories while in ketosis, I would lose muscle. You just simply can’t do a low-fat, low-carb diet, the calories have got to come from somewhere!"
2. High blood sugar causes fat build up
Here's an excerpt from http://fitnessblackbook.com/dieting_for_fat_loss/high-insulin-levels-stop-fat-loss-and-cause-weight-gain/
"It is impossible to have high levels of insulin in your system while burning fat at the same time. Think about that. If you eat a meal that has too high of a Glycemic Index, your blood sugar will spike, causing a large release in insulin. During this period of time your body cannot use fat for fuel (even if you are operating under a calorie deficit and even if you workout like crazy)."
What can be done?
Here's a video from Mark Macdonald explaining what can be done.
According to Mark Macdonald, using MonaVie RVL in between meals helps to stabilize your blood sugar and this means you will be less likely building up fat and you won't be as likely to be turning flabby as your muscle won't be burning. If you work out, you will be building lean muscle.
