Carbs Don't Make You Fat
The truth is, the slimmest populations in the world eat the most carbohydrates. Click on the video below to hear more.
Getting Started with the HawaiiDiet
Getting started with the HawaiiDiet(tm) is simple and in some ways a big adjustment for some people. It is simple because it is based on some very basic concepts that I call "The Real Secret to Health". You can read about the "Real Secret to Health" in the free report you can find at http://www.ask-healers.com/. In a nutshell, the most important concept to understand to start off is:
1. The ancient concept of "Lokahi" - everything is connected is the first one you need to understand. That you must look at spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical aspects of health for long term health. Click the Audio button below for a quick explanation.
That's why pills are never the real answer. They are too one-dimensional. They are engineered try to solve a single problem but in forgetting the concept of "lokahi" - that everything is connected - pharmaceuticals invariably have the potential of causing unintended side effects.
This also applies to food. Whenever food is adulterated in some way, it is no longer whole and no longer works the way nature intended. That's why junk food eg, too much fat, white sugar, white flour, artificially fattened animals, etc. make you gain weight and cause health problems. To understand the relationship between processed food and weight gain, and to choose food accordingly. Use the "EMI" or "SMI" scale that you can use to find foods that cause weight loss. To hear a full n explanation, Click on the audio button below.

Tasty Tip for Summer Parties
Keep your healthy diet alive, lower fat, and lose weight by filling up on tasty kebobs like these!
Zing It!
Tip # 44 – Zing Kebobs
WOULD YOU BELIEVE: Kebobs taste better without meat.
SOME FACTS: If you don’t believe me, try taking a piece of meat and chew it about 100 times. You will for the first time learn the true taste of meat. It tastes like cardboard or worse. Kebobs taste good because of the sauce. So you don’t need the meat.
The trick is to get the right sauce. In my original Eat More, Weigh Less™ Diet book, you can find four delicious marinades for kebobs. One was so good that one of my patients took vegetable kebobs to a party, used the Dijon marinade and found that even the meat eaters enjoyed them. In fact, they liked the dish so much, they were taking the meat off their kebobs, using my friend’s sauce, and enjoying a better tasting kebob.
Five of the nine sauces described in the “Nine Zesty Sauce” section of this book on page 239 are excellent marinades. They are Dijon Sauce, Asian Sauce, Miso Sauce, BBQ Sauce, and Curry Sauce.
WHAT YOU CAN DO:
· Try vegetable kebobs with vegetables of your choice.
· Use one of the sauces from the “Nine Zesty Sauces” in the following section or from the Kebob Section in the original Eat More, Weigh Less™ Diet Book (page 194). Personally, my favorite is the Dijon Sauce. (3 parts dijon mustard, 2 parts soy sauce (or braggs liquid aminos), 2 parts, lemon juice, garlic to taste)
Kebob Salad
2 C Firm tofu cubes or Tofu Nuggets (see page 335)
1 large Red bell pepper
1 large Green bell pepper
1 large Yellow bell pepper
16 Cherry tomatoes
16 Fresh pineapple chunks
16 Button mushrooms
1 med. Zucchini
2-3 Tbsp. Any of this cookbook’s dressings
Shredded lettuce for bed
Wash all vegetables well. Cut all the bell peppers into small, equal-sized chunks.
Skewer the tofu cubes or nuggets, peppers, tomatoes, pineapple chunks, and mushrooms onto wooden kebab sticks, alternating the colors and textures, starting and ending with a cherry tomato.
Arrange on shredded bed of lettuce on platter, drizzle favorite dressing over bed of kebabs, to taste. Makes 4 portions. (1 portion = 296.5 calories, 12.3 grams fat, 30% protein, 37% carbohydrates, 33% fat – dressing not included)
