When my sister told me years ago that the latest trend in weight loss was not watching fats, but carbs or starches, I was really surprised. Yet over the years, this method has had good success. However, watching your carbs takes great discipline and time in order to do it right. It also has the side effect of reducing the nutrition your body normally gets from eating certain foods. For example, when people just try to cut their carbs, it often reduces their fruit intake, and their potassium and sodium levels can suffer. My personal side effect is the longing for the taste of my favorite potato chips hidden in my bread cupboard.
But there is a way to minimize those side effects and drop the careful carb and calorie watching. It's by using a carb control supplement. The white kidney bean's phaseolamin is used to digest the carbs enzymatically. Many companies have sold this product, but it wasn't very effective because a person would have to consume around 1500 mg of extract in order for it to block enough carbs.
Now EuroPharma has developed a better blocker. Not only is it enteric coated so the minitab gets to the right place to do its job, it also only uses 2 mg of the extract. It's so concentrated and purified that it actually contains 120 times the phaseolamin extract as the other formulas. This can block 75 grams of complex carbs, or 300 calories a meal. Times that by three meals, and you can block around 900 calories a day. If a person eats that many fewer calories a day, the weight will start to slowly and consistently come off. Many people take this supplement before a high carb meal like rice, pasta or potatoes. This can be a great idea too, as they are insuring that they aren't adding extra calories and weight from those extra carbs. I would be happy to just not keep slowly and consistently gaining weight!
Terry Lemerond, who founded EuroPharma and the product called “Dieter’s Choice for Carb Control,” says that people's average weight loss is a minimum of a pound a week. I don't know about you, but that sounds pretty impressive for a product that doesn't call for a new exercise program or any denial of certain food. You can read more about this product at Lemerond’s site called www.terrytalksnutrition.com under weight loss articles.
Now if I just wouldn't be tempted to guiltlessly splurge and eat that bag of chips in my cupboard with a EuroPharma Carb Control and then call it even! Ellen
