The Truth About Weight Loss

The Truth about weight loss

Failed Attempts

Dieters have spent billions of dollars on diets and diet products. Yet we keep getting heavier. The reality is that all of the diets, programs, diet foods, pills, and drugs are not getting to the underlying issue. In this article, we’re going to expose the truth about why dieting has failed and share how you can lose weight and keep it off, by increasing your metabolic efficiency and prevent or reverse a condition that got you here in the first place. It all starts with a hormone, called Insulin. Insulin serves as a signaling hormone, facilitating the uptake of glucose from the bloodstream into cells for energy production or storage. When insulin is chronically elevated – most often due to a poor diet – it leads to a condition called insulin resistance. This increasingly common condition causes a cascade of metabolic disturbances, the most common being weight gain.

Demystifying Weight Loss: What Really Works?

The enduring struggle with weight loss can be attributed to Insulin Resistance. Countless studies have linked Insulin Resistance to obesity, yet it’s a topic that is rarely discussed. Despite this, the diet pills and pharmaceutical sectors remain tight-lipped about this core issue. Why the silence? The drug companies bottom line thrives on perpetuating the cycle of eternal dieting.

Meet Dr. Ben Bikman

Leading insulin resistance researcher, metabolic scientist, professor and best-selling author, Dr. Ben Bikman, has conducted extensive research over the last decade to finally crack the code to lasting weight loss, improved metabolism, enhanced brain and gut health and more.

As a researcher and popular speaker on insulin resistance, human metabolism and nutrition, Dr. Bikman has seen the terrible impact a poor diet has on the health and weight of people worldwide.

“My research has shown that you can safely lose weight, keep it off and improve your health with just a simple, yet powerful shift in your diet.”

Real Reviews from Real Customers

Great fulfilling time saver!

I was previously a starving calories counter in my previous weight loss adventures, but ever since I applied Dr. Bikman’s strategy I have lost over 26 pounds in 10 weeks without ever feeling hungry, I still can’t believe that!

Thank you so much Dr. Bikman and HLTH Code, you have changed my life!

Marie S.

Amazing, amazing, amazing!

In the past 2 weeks I have lost 8 lbs, which is amazing for me. Nothing usually works for me. I am 67 years old and have dieted off and on for years. I’d lose a few pounds here and there, but then it comes right back.

Finally a product that works! I do not crave sweets, carbs like bread or salty things. I feel full for at least 4-5 hours so now I don’t eat in-between meals.

Gift of a Lifetime

I’ve been using HLTH Code for about 2 weeks now. My glucose numbers have been down in the 80’s or low 90’s. I feel like my brain function is up. My skin has an appearance of a healthier glow. My appetite is down. My cravings are down. I’ve lost about 6 pounds. I don’t get hungry during the day. I envision myself using this the rest of my life.

What is Insulin?

Insulin is a hormone secreted by the pancreas in response to elevated blood glucose levels, typically after a meal. Its primary function is to regulate blood sugar by facilitating the uptake of glucose into cells, where it can be utilized for energy or stored for future use as body fat.

What is insulin resistance?

Insulin resistance is defined as a reduced response to the hormone insulin. Every cell in every tissue of the body responds to insulin. Insulin, which is flowing in the blood, will bind to a specific site on a cell and then elicit a series of events within that cell. When a cell loses its responsiveness to insulin, which can happen as a consequence of various conditions, it becomes insulin resistant. In such a state, the cells need more than normal amounts of insulin in order to get the same response as before. Thus, the key feature of insulin resistance is that: 1) blood levels of insulin are higher than they used to be and, in many instances; 2) the insulin doesn’t work as well.

How does someone become insulin resistant ?

Several factors contribute to the development of insulin resistance. Sedentary lifestyle, excess body weight, poor dietary habits, and genetic predisposition are among the primary culprits. Chronic inflammation, often stemming from conditions like obesity and metabolic syndrome, also plays a role in promoting insulin resistance.

Our modern diet and terrible advice from so-called experts have negatively impacted our weight, our health, and has driven this epidemic of insulin resistance. We’ve been told to eat low-fat diets, yet we’re fatter than ever. We’ve been told to eat more refined carbohydrates, yet we’re increasingly unhealthy. We now eat more calories, yet get less nourishment. Yes – most people are overfed and undernourished. And we’re so busy that much of our food comes from the coffee shop, vending machine or from fast food restaurants.

Do you experience any of these indicators of insulin resistant ?

How does being insulin resistant cause you to gain weight ?

Insulin resistance sets off a domino effect that can promote weight gain through multiple mechanisms. Firstly, when cells resist the effects of insulin, glucose uptake is impaired, leading to higher levels of sugar circulating in the bloodstream. Excess glucose not utilized for energy production is eventually stored as fat, contributing to weight gain.

Furthermore, insulin resistance disrupts the balance between fat storage and breakdown. Elevated insulin levels promote the storage of fat in adipose tissue, particularly in the abdominal region, where it poses greater health risks. This increased fat accumulation further exacerbates insulin resistance, creating a vicious cycle that perpetuates weight gain.

Moreover, insulin resistance can disrupt appetite regulation and promote cravings for sugary and high-calorie foods. This can lead to overeating and further exacerbate weight gain, perpetuating the cycle of insulin resistance.

How can you reverse insulin resistance?

So how can we improve insulin sensitivity? The key is to change the nutritional balance of your daily diet. But contrary to what you’ve been told, it does not involve counting calories or points, eating foods you don’t enjoy, depriving yourself, or taking expensive and painful injections of risky drugs.

By building our diet on three pillars, we give the body a break from the incessant insulin and allow insulin resistance to improve. We can do this by:

Prioritizing protein: Make sure to regularly consume high-quality protein foods. Eggs, meat and dairy are superior sources, while fermented plant proteins are also an excellent source.
Filling with fat: Protein and fat are supposed to come together—eat them that way. Moreover, don’t be afraid of other fat sources, like coconut oil, butter, olive oil, and more. These natural fats from animal and fruit sources are “ancestral”—we’ve been eating them for millennia.
Controlling carbohydrates: Avoid refined starches and sugars and focus on fiber-rich vegetables and fruits.

The changes you need to make are simple and doable. People around the world have already made significant improvements to their weight management and overall health with this health breakthrough.

Bringing solutions from the lab to the real world

Even with all the information that Dr. Bikman shares in his speeches and interviews, he is constantly asked by people around the world what they should do for their health.

“Ideally, we all would have the knowledge, time, discipline and budget to plan, purchase and prepare perfect meals.” said Bikman. “But it simply doesn’t happen; people get busy, they get stressed and they make unhealthy choices that derail their health goals.”

It became apparent to Dr. Bikman that he needed to be part of the solution to help people achieve their best health more quickly, and especially to assist those that don’t always have the time, knowledge or discipline to eat healthy. In response, Dr. Bikman and his co-founding team of nutrition and industry experts recently created
HLTH Code Complete Meal.

Dr. Bikman says these carefully formulated meal shakes can promote healthy weight management, gut health, brain health, even hair, skin and nail health. HLTH Code Complete Meal features an optimized, science-backed blend of protein, collagen, healthy fats, apple cider vinegar, probiotics, fiber, vitamins and minerals—with no added sugar or any artificial ingredients.

“HLTH Code Complete Meal is based on research, not fads,” said Bikman. “An incredible amount of work went into making this nutritionally balanced and optimized, yet we knew that if it didn’t taste good, no one would use them consistently.”

“A HLTH Code Complete Meal shake is the perfect meal because it’s packed with optimized amounts of necessary ingredients to leave you feeling full and energized for hours,” said Bikman.

“Yet it’s more convenient and affordable than virtually any meal you could make or buy.”

They’ve got good stuff in them. No sugar added. They only use ingredients I’m comfortable putting in my body on a clean, low-carb, keto diet.

As a low-carb doc, I preach, "just eat real food" and have been a critic of highly-processed shakes and other products. With HLTH Code Complete Meal, however, I was immediately impressed by the quality ingredient list. I’m really pleased that there’s finally an excellent low-carb meal replacement that I can personally use and recommend.
