WO OUT OF three people in the United States struggle with obesity. This is a relatively modern trend, and it is likely related to recent innovations in food processing that have diverted us away from natural, healthy, unprocessed foods.

Probably the largest culprit is the massive increase in consumption of fructose, which is now the number one source of calories in the United States. It is no mystery that sugar is not good for you, but fructose is particularly pernicious.

Most fructose is metabolized directly to fat-unlike glucose, which is more typically converted to energy. Additionally, fructose will massively increase insulin and leptin resistance, which are primary foundational causes of inability to lose weight.

The wonderful aspect of Cherie's approach is that she provides you with a very low-fructose diet that tends to normalize most of the complex biochemistry associated with consuming fructose in excess of 15 grams per day.

Not only is fructose limited by this approach, but it is also replaced with some of the most essential foods that you could possibly consume. They are loaded with micronutrients and biophotons that are virtually impossible to obtain in any dietary supplement.

Juicing can be an important part of a successful weight loss program because most of us have impaired digestion as a result of making lessthan-optimal food choices. This can limit your body's ability to absorb all the nutrients from vegetables. Juicing will help to "predigest" them for you, so you will receive most of the nutrients.

Juicing helps you absorb all the nutrients from the vegetables and can help you add a far larger variety of vegetables than you would normally consume in your diet.

Many people eat the same vegetable salads every day. This violates the principle of eating a large variety of foods and actually increases your chance of developing food allergies. Juicing allows you to consume a wide variety of vegetables that you may not normally enjoy eating whole.

The majority of people are pleasantly surprised to find that juicing is much easier than they thought it would be. Ideally, you should start juicing vegetables that you enjoy eating whole and fresh.

If you have had challenges losing weight, you owe it to yourself to try this approach. The odds are overwhelming that it will help you with your efforts. You will also be healthier, and you will radically reduce your risk for developing chronic degenerative diseases as you get older.

OU MAY HAVE tried nearly every diet on the planet. Have you choked down more grapefruit than you ever want to see again? Perhaps you've purchased boxes and boxes of diet food. What else? Flushed the fat? Eaten no fat or low fat? Maybe you've polished off enough protein to support an animal feed lot. But alas, as the song goes, you're right back where you started from. Well, hold your chin up! You will never need to go looking for another diet again if you follow The Juice Lady's Turbo Diet. It's a healthy, easy, antiaging, disease-preventing diet. Best of all-it works!

I'll let you in on a secret. The Turbo Diet really isn't a diet. It's a way of life! It's a plan you can follow year after year until you say an revoir to this life. It's the way of eating that I've followed for more than two decades. I know it works. It's how I've maintained my weight. It's worked for hundreds of people that I've worked with as a nutritionist and the Juice Lady.

I became the Juice Lady in 1991 when I went to work for the Juiceman Company while I was finishing my master of science degree at Bastyr University. Since graduating in 1991, I've spoken to audiences, both large and small, at halls, restaurants, meeting rooms, convention centers, churches, and universities. I've taught cooking, juicing, nutrition, and weight-loss classes for many years. Hundreds of people have lost weight and improved their health by applying what they've learned in my classes and groups. The juicing program has been proven to facilitate weight loss in university studies, which you'll read more about in chapter 1. Now you can enjoy the weight-loss benefits of the Turbo Diet along with abundant energy, better mood, and improved health.
