Before chopping, flour the pieces in a paper bag.
Or, dip your shears or knife in hot water while cutting.

Three Basics Approaches To Weight Management
Through Nutritional Supplementation
First is the use of diuretic herbs
and nutrients to reduce water retention.
The second is the use of lipotropic vitamins,
which have the ability to reduce cholesterol and fat.
Third is the use of natural appetite suppressants.

Flaxseed oil, Primrose oil, and salmon oil
Use these with a low-fat diet to provide
essential fatty acids.
needed by every cell in the body
and for appetite control.

Vitamin C-Speeds up a slow metabolism,
prompting it to burn more calories.
Sugar
Sugar triggers the release of insulin,
which then activates enzymes
that promote the passage of fat
from the bloodstream into the fat cells.

IRON
Do not take iron supplements
if you have an infection.
Because bacteria require iron for growth,
the body" hides"
iron in the liver
and other storage sites when
a infection is present.
Taking extra iron encourages the proliferation of
of bacteria in the body.

Enzymes
nourish the thyroid and pituitary glands,
which keep the metabolism fired up.
Their job is to cleanse the bloodstream,
reducing toxin levels by up to 60%.
Research shows that boosting enzyme levels
is the key to weight loss
They also fuel the chemical reactions
that transform fats and carbohydrates
into usable energy,
rather than allowing them
to be stored as fat.
Enzymes can be found in
avocados, papayas, pineapples,
bananas and mangos.
Sprouts are the richest source.
