The GI ranks foods on a scale from 0-100 according to the extent to which they raise blood sugar levels after eating

Whole foods will generally have a lower GI vs processed

Tool 1 Understanding the Glycemic Index (GI) of Foods

Processed

Whole

Foods with HIGH GI Are rapidly digested and

absorbed (fluctuations in blood sugar levels)

Glycemic Index

Foods with LOW GI Slow digestion and

absorption (gradual rises in blood sugar

and insulin levels)

Ex Rice vs Flour

Fat storage

Fat burn Mode (eat every 4 hours)

Examples Refer to your handout

It allows you to choose one food over

another in the same food group the best bread the best cereal etchellip

Think of GI as a Tool

A low GI diet is eating a wide variety of healthy whole

foods that fuel our bodies with nutrition that gives us

clean energy

PROCESSED foods are already broken down fast

digestion Stay full shorter = more hunger

WHOLE foods use more energy (kcal) to break down

nutrients(calories) Stay full longer = less hunger

Remember your goal is to consume Whole Foods

How Do I Start Eating Low GI Foods

ldquoThis for Thatrdquo exchange

Exchange High GI Carbs for Low GI Carbs

(Strawberries in place of Bananas) and (Grains

instead of breads)

Is the amount of energy your body needs to function at a resting state

Tool 2 BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate)

Nutrition and Weight Loss

Michael Phelps (Example) Do not do this

He needs 10000 calories during peak training (BMR+Exercise Factor)

Body Fat - 1

His Calorie needs to not follow the normal BMR

Calorie intake matters more for athletes than non-athletes

Quantity is more important than quality FOR HIM ONLY

Endurance Based

WHY CANrsquoT I EAT THAT

How Much

Food Do You

REALLY

Need if you are not Michael Phelps

1 1000 ndash 1350 kcal

We are going to divide BMR into 3 categories

2 1351 ndash 1850 kcal

3 1851 ndash 2450 kcal

Tool 3 Knowing what your Body NEEDS vs wants

2 Protein (Animal vs Vegetable based)

3 Complex Carbohydrates

4 Whole Fruit

5 VitaminsMinerals

6 Fat (SaturatedUnsaturatedTrans)

7 Whole Grains (Quinoa Barley Buckwheat etc)

Optional Processed Starches Processed Sugars (Simple Carbohydrates)

Women need 8-12 cups

Your Life Source--Water H2O

Men need 9-13 cups

In general you should drink half of your weight in ounces in order to maintain proper

hydration

Ex 180 lbs needs 90 oz H2O

bull Cornell Medical Center Study (1998)

75 of Americans have symptoms of chronic dehydration

In 37 of Americans the thirst mechanism is so weak

itrsquos often mistaken for hunger

Mild dehydration can slow metabolism as much as 3

Dehydration is the 1 trigger of daytime fatigue

A 2 drop in hydration can trigger fuzzy short-term

memory trouble with basic math and difficulty focusing

About Dehydration

RC Rev 17 5-25-2010

Protein is BOTH Animal AND Plant Based

Protein (4 calories per gram)

We need a MIN to avoid starvation mode

We need a MAX to avoid over-consumption

Adequate protein intake is essential

5 oz Some Fish amp liver

35 oz Beef Pork and

Fattier Meats

Ex the entire hand

Ex palm and up to knuckles

Ex Palm only

It can take up to 10 days to digest at 986F

Rules for Red Meat

DONrsquoT STOP CONSUMING--small amounts can help your metabolism because of the benefits of stearic acid and iron

1 palm size portion per week is plenty

LEAN meats have same

nutrients but less fat

Vegetables (Good Carb) ( 4 calories per gram of carbohydrates)

Portions of vegetables according to BMR

BMR Vegetable Portion

1 (1000-1350) 5 ndash 7

2 (1351-1850) 7 ndash 9

3 (1851-2450) 9 ndash 11

1 serving 1 cup of raw vegetables

OR frac12 cup cooked

All BMR groups 1 Min ndash 2 Max

Fruit (Good Carb) (sugar 4 calories per gram)

Fruit is a great source of fiber promotes brain

energy and full of antioxidants

Fiber helps to slow down the movement of

food from the small intestine to your large

intestine So it is best not to eat whole

fruit with other foods

By itself is optimal

Eat whole fruits need nutrients + fiber

Fruit juice is too processed and

high in sugar

Use fruit as a dessert instead of other high calorie options

Fruit makes a great afternoon snack

Serving Size same as Veggies

2 (1351-1850) 30 ndash 45 grams

3 (1851-2450) 30 ndash 55 grams

Good Fat (High End) vs Bad Fat (Low End)

Why Do We Need Fat

Brain ndash 60 brain is fat function

Cells ndash flexibility

Heart ndash 60 of heart energy

from burning fats Lungs ndash minimizes friction prevents collapsing

Nerves ndashinsulates and protects the nerves

Immune System ndash ease inflammation stabilized

metabolism and immune system

Organs- cushioning and protection

Digestion ndashslows digestion to help provide a constant level of energy

Fat-soluble vitamins (A D E and K) can only be absorbed if fat is

present

Tool 6 Good Fat Bad Fat amp Evil Fat

EVIL FAT

Vegetable fats liquid at room

temperature raises HDL lowers LDL

Animal fats solid at room temperature

raises LDL raises HDL

Man-made formed into semi-solid

fats raises LDL and lowers HDL

Total HDL LDL and Triglycerides

Cholesterol

HDL (Hero Cholesterol) responsible for

eliminating cholesterol from the body

LDL (Loser Cholesterol) which leads to

cholesterol buildup in the arteries

Triglycerides fats in the bloodstream

The higher your HDL the lower your chance of

heart disease while the more LDL and triglycerides

you have the greater your chance of heart disease

Total cholesterol should be less than 200 mgdL

What is a normal Cholesterol Tool 7 Knowing your Pac-Manrsquos

HDL 60 or above are ideal below 40 can

increase risk

LDL Below 160 if you have one risk factor below

130 if you have 2 risk factors below 100

Triglycerides Below 150

Plaque Build - Up

Letrsquos do an Experiment and test fish oil

Omega 3rsquos act as intestinal scrubbers to clean out

bad cholesterol from forming plaque

Choose your Omega 3rsquos wisely

Not all Vitamins are created equally

Benefits of omega

Lower the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides

Thins the blood and less likely to clot

Improve blood vessel elasticity

And best of all it helps your skins elasticity This

means less saggy skin as you lose weight

Lower risk of heart disease and strokes

Tips on Eating Fats

Replace saturated and trans fat with mono

amp polyunsaturated fats

Check the nutrition facts Choose foods

lower in saturated fat trans fat and cholesterol

Measure oil for cooking with a tablespoon

(TBS) rather than pouring it straight from

the bottle 1 TBS= 110 Calories

Note use a spray bottle for your oils

Tips on Eating Fats

Grill bake or steam rather than frying

Ask restaurants to cook your food without

Butter fats and salt

If you choose something high in fat pick

something low in fat to go with it

When making sandwiches try not using

any butter or spread

Donrsquot waste your calories

The Truth

About

Milkhellip

Milk We are the only species that drinks other species milk

Why No Milk

Cowrsquos milk is designed for the calf

What is it doing to us

Milk Pasteurization Kills bacteria

Calcium is a mineral Heat Dissolve

Milk Information

Regular Milk 12 ndash 13 gr of sugar in 1 cup

Unsweetened 6 ndash 7 gr of sugar in 1 cup

Soy Milk

Unsweetened 0 gr of sugar in 1 cup

Almond Milk

Tool 8 Know your Sugars and their different name

Your body doesnrsquot need REFINED sugar But

is you are going to have it follow this rule of

thumb

No more than 23 grams per day and no more

than 10 gramsper serving

The average American consumes an

average of 180 gramsper day

Brown sugar

Corn sweetener

Corn syrup

Dextrose Fructose

Fruit juice concentrate

Glucose High-fructose corn syrup Honey

Invert sugar

Lactose Malt syrup

Maltose

Raw sugar Sucrose

Syrup Table sugar

A food is likely to be high in sugars if one of these names appears first or second in the ingredient list or if several

names are listed

NAMES FOR ADDED SUGARS THAT APPEAR ON FOOD LABELS

Healthy Nutrients

Get enough Can improve your health and help reduce the risk of some disease

The product might have more nutrients but is not a requirement to listed them

It is only a requirement to list Vitamin A C Calcium amp Iron

Footnotes

It will always be the same on all products

Recommended dietary advice for all Americans

Are based on a 2000-2500 calorie diet

But remember what is your BMR

Percent Daily Values are bases on a 2000 Calorie diet Your Daily Values may be Lower depending on your calorie needs Calories 2000 2500

Total Fat Less than 65 g 80 g Sat Fat Less than 20 g 25 g Cholesterol Less than 300 g 300 g Sodium Less than 2400 mg 2400 mg Total Carbohydrate 300 g 375 g Dietary Fiber 25 g 30 g

Daily Value

5 is Low 20 is High

Think how many servings are you going to have and you multiply the daily values 2 servings 3 etchellipcan put you over your limit

Tool 11 Ingredient Quality Counts

The listing of each ingredient is in descending order The first ingredient is the highest quantity The following are lesser percentage of the whole product

Ingredients to AVOID bull Monosodium glutamate bull lsquoHydrogenationrsquo or partial hydrogenation bull Aspartame bull Sucralose (ok sometimes)

Most of these food ingredients are found

in processed foods or lsquodietrsquo foods which

you SHOULD NOT be eating anyways

Grocery Store

Real foods donrsquot have labels

Stay on the perimeter Mostly Real Food

Nutrition and Weight Loss

Michael Phelps (Example) Do not do this

He needs 10000 calories during peak training (BMR+Exercise Factor)

Body Fat - 1

His Calorie needs to not follow the normal BMR

Calorie intake matters more for athletes than non-athletes

Quantity is more important than quality FOR HIM ONLY

Women need 8-12 cups

Your Life Source--Water H2O

Men need 9-13 cups

In general you should drink half of your weight in ounces in order to maintain proper

hydration

Ex 180 lbs needs 90 oz H2O

bull Cornell Medical Center Study (1998)

75 of Americans have symptoms of chronic dehydration

In 37 of Americans the thirst mechanism is so weak

itrsquos often mistaken for hunger

Mild dehydration can slow metabolism as much as 3

Dehydration is the 1 trigger of daytime fatigue

A 2 drop in hydration can trigger fuzzy short-term

memory trouble with basic math and difficulty focusing

Fruit (Good Carb) (sugar 4 calories per gram)

Fruit is a great source of fiber promotes brain

energy and full of antioxidants

Fiber helps to slow down the movement of

food from the small intestine to your large

intestine So it is best not to eat whole

fruit with other foods

By itself is optimal

Eat whole fruits need nutrients + fiber

Fruit juice is too processed and

high in sugar

Use fruit as a dessert instead of other high calorie options

Fruit makes a great afternoon snack

Total HDL LDL and Triglycerides

Cholesterol

HDL (Hero Cholesterol) responsible for

eliminating cholesterol from the body

LDL (Loser Cholesterol) which leads to

cholesterol buildup in the arteries

Triglycerides fats in the bloodstream

The higher your HDL the lower your chance of

heart disease while the more LDL and triglycerides

you have the greater your chance of heart disease

Total cholesterol should be less than 200 mgdL

What is a normal Cholesterol Tool 7 Knowing your Pac-Manrsquos

HDL 60 or above are ideal below 40 can

Choose your Omega 3rsquos wisely

Not all Vitamins are created equally

Benefits of omega

Lower the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides

Thins the blood and less likely to clot

Improve blood vessel elasticity

And best of all it helps your skins elasticity This

means less saggy skin as you lose weight

Lower risk of heart disease and strokes

Tips on Eating Fats

Replace saturated and trans fat with mono

amp polyunsaturated fats

Check the nutrition facts Choose foods

lower in saturated fat trans fat and cholesterol

Measure oil for cooking with a tablespoon

(TBS) rather than pouring it straight from

the bottle 1 TBS= 110 Calories

Note use a spray bottle for your oils

Tips on Eating Fats

Grill bake or steam rather than frying

Ask restaurants to cook your food without

Butter fats and salt

If you choose something high in fat pick

something low in fat to go with it

When making sandwiches try not using

A low GI diet is eating a wide variety of healthy whole

foods that fuel our bodies with nutrition that gives us

clean energy

PROCESSED foods are already broken down fast

Lower the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides

Thins the blood and less likely to clot

Improve blood vessel elasticity

And best of all it helps your skins elasticity This

means less saggy skin as you lose weight

Lower risk of heart disease and strokes

Tips on Eating Fats

Replace saturated and trans fat with mono

amp polyunsaturated fats

Check the nutrition facts Choose foods

lower in saturated fat trans fat and cholesterol

Measure oil for cooking with a tablespoon

(TBS) rather than pouring it straight from

the bottle 1 TBS= 110 Calories

Note use a spray bottle for your oils

Tips on Eating Fats

Grill bake or steam rather than frying

Ask restaurants to cook your food without

Butter fats and salt

If you choose something high in fat pick

something low in fat to go with it

When making sandwiches try not using

Letrsquos do an Experiment and test fish oil

Omega 3rsquos act as intestinal scrubbers to clean out

bad cholesterol from forming plaque

Choose your Omega 3rsquos wisely

Not all Vitamins are created equally

Benefits of omega

Lower the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides

Thins the blood and less likely to clot

Improve blood vessel elasticity

And best of all it helps your skins elasticity This

means less saggy skin as you lose weight

Lower risk of heart disease and strokes

Tips on Eating Fats

Replace saturated and trans fat with mono

amp polyunsaturated fats

Check the nutrition facts Choose foods

lower in saturated fat trans fat and cholesterol

Measure oil for cooking with a tablespoon

(TBS) rather than pouring it straight from

the bottle 1 TBS= 110 Calories

Note use a spray bottle for your oils

Tips on Eating Fats

Grill bake or steam rather than frying

Ask restaurants to cook your food without

He needs 10000 calories during peak training (BMR+Exercise Factor)

Body Fat - 1

His Calorie needs to not follow the normal BMR

Calorie intake matters more for athletes than non-athletes

Quantity is more important than quality FOR HIM ONLY

Women need 8-12 cups

Your Life Source--Water H2O

Men need 9-13 cups

In general you should drink half of your weight in ounces in order to maintain proper

hydration

Ex 180 lbs needs 90 oz H2O

bull Cornell Medical Center Study (1998)

75 of Americans have symptoms of chronic dehydration

In 37 of Americans the thirst mechanism is so weak

itrsquos often mistaken for hunger

Mild dehydration can slow metabolism as much as 3

Dehydration is the 1 trigger of daytime fatigue

A 2 drop in hydration can trigger fuzzy short-term

memory trouble with basic math and difficulty focusing

Fruit (Good Carb) (sugar 4 calories per gram)

Fruit is a great source of fiber promotes brain

energy and full of antioxidants

Fiber helps to slow down the movement of

food from the small intestine to your large

intestine So it is best not to eat whole

fruit with other foods

By itself is optimal

Eat whole fruits need nutrients + fiber

Fruit juice is too processed and

high in sugar

Use fruit as a dessert instead of other high calorie options

Fruit makes a great afternoon snack

HDL (Hero Cholesterol) responsible for

eliminating cholesterol from the body

LDL (Loser Cholesterol) which leads to

cholesterol buildup in the arteries

Triglycerides fats in the bloodstream

The higher your HDL the lower your chance of

heart disease while the more LDL and triglycerides

you have the greater your chance of heart disease

Total cholesterol should be less than 200 mgdL

Choose your Omega 3rsquos wisely

Not all Vitamins are created equally

Benefits of omega

Lower the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides

Thins the blood and less likely to clot

Improve blood vessel elasticity

And best of all it helps your skins elasticity This

means less saggy skin as you lose weight

Lower risk of heart disease and strokes

Tips on Eating Fats

Replace saturated and trans fat with mono

amp polyunsaturated fats

Check the nutrition facts Choose foods

lower in saturated fat trans fat and cholesterol

Measure oil for cooking with a tablespoon

(TBS) rather than pouring it straight from

the bottle 1 TBS= 110 Calories

Think of GI as a Tool

A low GI diet is eating a wide variety of healthy whole

foods that fuel our bodies with nutrition that gives us

clean energy

PROCESSED foods are already broken down fast

digestion Stay full shorter = more hunger

WHOLE foods use more energy (kcal) to break down
