How to Switch on your Longevity and Weight Loss Genes - Naturally Thanks to the pioneering work of professors Leonard P. Guarente (of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and David A. Sinclair (of Harvard University), research has revealed that certain longevity genes are activated during caloric restriction. Moreover, their work showed that this effect was evident at any age; in other words, life extension could be achieved in older age groups as well. Learn about the strategies to switch on over 350 longevity genes with diet and nutrition. Mr. Cash is an entrepreneur with formal training in physics and geology, who has studied the biological and biochemical aspects of aging research with scientists in the field. He is working with the National Institutes of Aging Division of the US National Institutes of Health and also investing his own funds in this research. The focus of Mr. Cash's research and development at Terra Biological LLC is on small molecules that simulate the genomic effects of calorie restriction.

The Spiritual, Emotional and Nutritional Power of What We Eat with Steve Gagné Steve will explore an approach to diet from the perspective of ancient peoples, who understood how the energetic qualities of food affect both physical and spiritual health. You will learn how to revitalize your connection to food and remedyr physical and psychic imbalances with the wisdom of food energetics Steve Gagne, author of Food Energetics, sees himself as an ordinary man investigating extraordinary information. An independent investigator/researcher, and alternative historian, Steve is one of the most versatile and experienced teachers in whole foods nutrition. His 30 years of teaching throughout America and Europe have earned him a reputation as a progressive and informed wholistic educator who brings a lively, innovative intelligence to his work. Steve is especially well known as an expert inFood Energetics, where ancient wisdom and dietary traditions merge with modern perspectives and breakthrough research in nutritional science. Steve’s long-standing fascination with theories of human origins and his passion for cultural dietary traditions have led him through exhaustive studies in multiple disciplines, both conventional and alternative, and have taken him all over the globe. Unconvinced by the accepted theory of human origins, Steve decided to investigate traditional cultures and the remains of ancient civilizations by experiencing them first hand. Over the past decade, he has embarked on a series of globe-circling expeditions to pursue his research. These years of research and experience have made it increasingly clear that traditional peoples across the globe are intimately linked by a consistent thread woven through their myths and legends, architecture, astronomy and food traditions. This comprehensive understanding of art and culture, revealed through a wealth of evidence from lost civilizations, extends deep into prehistory–much further back than was originally thought possible. Today Steve divides his time between continuing his investigations and speaking to audiences around the world about his discoveries–about our extraordinary hidden heritage, commonsense whole-foods nutrition and the need to reevaluate some of our modern dietary and scientific trends.

What You don't Know About Wheat Might Make You Fat. Sick and Old with Dr. William Davis

What You don't Know About Wheat Might Make You Fat. Sick and Old with Dr. William Davis Since 2004, Dr. William Davis, author of Wheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Yourself Back to Health, has served as Medical Director of the heart disease prevention and reversal program, Track Your Plaque, an international meeting-of-the-minds to generate a collective effort to find better solutions to the scourge of heart attack and heart disease. In an effort to assist people, as well as his patients, reduce blood sugar–high in over 80% of people nowadays– he asked them to eliminate wheat, including whole grain products, based on the simple fact that wheat products increase blood sugar more than nearly all other foods. The unexpected result: Incredible weight loss; relief from acid reflux and the gas, cramping, and diarrhea of irritable bowel syndrome; increased energy, more stable moods, and deeper sleep; relief from arthritis, including rheumatoid arthritis; dramatically improved cholesterol values; reduced blood pressure and inflammatory measures, and on and on. It became clear that this was no coincidence. This was real. And it was all due to eliminating this thing being sold to us called wheat. The unexpected results I witnessed in my heart disease prevention program led him to believe that these observations applied to more than my patients and online following. This was a widespread societal problem. It became clear that “wheat” consumption was responsible for an incredible amount of the human illness, obesity, and suffering we are all witnessing on an unprecedented scale. So Wheat Belly represents the distilled experience and lessons I’ve learned over these last several years, lessons learned by accident in my quest to help solve the dilemma of heart disease. He is a 1985 graduate of the St. Louis University School of Medicine and the Ohio State University Hospitals for training in Internal Medicine and Cardiovascular Diseases. I even trained in advanced cardiac catheterization techniques and coronary angioplasty in the Case-Western Reserve University system in Cleveland, Ohio. He practices preventive cardiology in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. http://www.wheatbellyblog.com/
