Weight loss does not last, but fat loss changes the metabolism for good. This talk teaches the diet, exercise and lifestyle habits that lead to sustained fat loss.
It is not how much one eats or how long one exercises that matter, these are the tools of weight loss. Rather it is the type of exercise and the quality of the diet that makes the real difference. When proper diet, exercise and lifestyle are combined, a "metabolic ripple" is generated that leads to sustained fat burning. This hormonal fat burning state is what we call the "metabolic effect" and it can be learned, practiced, and mastered.

Dr. Jade Teta is the co-owner of Metabolic Effect, based in Winston-Salem. Come get a sneak peak at the content of his new book The New ME Diet.
