Bible Holds Secrets to Weight Loss!

I get a kick out of all the ways you can “easily” lose weight and all the amazing “secrets” that are discovered on an almost daily basis. I think my favortite was in my email inbox today.

“The Flat Stomach Pill”

Sure, the name says it all. But what about the “science” behind it?

“When chemistry professor Kazuo Miyashita and his colleagues at Hokkaido University in Japan fed obese mice this compound, called fucoxanthin, the mice produced high levels of protein involved in fat burning, and they shed 2 to 5 percent of their body fat, mostly from the abdomen…”

Wow! What a Statement!

• First off, wasn’t “Kazuo Miyashita” in that Karate Kid movie?

• “Hokkaido University?” Must be a real tough school if we can’t pronounce it!

• “Japan?!” That is over the ocean where the smart people live right?

• “Obese Mice??”

• “Shed 2 to 5 percent of body fat?” Don’t they have those wheel things to run on anyway?

And to think all this time I was trying a radical “move more, eat less” diet like the The 7 Principles of Fat Burning: Get Healthy, Lose Weight and Keep It Off!
