Ketogenic diet – how to lose weight and keep it off…

Let’s Talk about a Ketogenic Diet

Clinical evidence has shown that a ketogenic diet not only promotes effective and sustained weight loss through improved fat burning and reduced fat storage, but it also preserves your muscle mass and can help maintain healthy blood sugar levels.  By avoiding dips in blood sugar levels and maintaining a sense of fullness or satiety, a ketogenic diet can help you avoid the mental fogginess and irritability often associated with weight loss diets.

This year, rather than turn to yet another ‘quick fix’ diet that promises you’ll fit into your bikini within the month but feels impossible to do; look to your healthcare Practitioner for a simple and convenient program that will provide sustainable long-term results as well as keeping you feeling physically and mentally well. The Shake It Practitioner Weight Management Program is based on a ketogenic diet that is able to do just that.

Low Carb = High Life!

Shake It is a scientifically validated, controlled carbohydrate program, which, when combined with regular exercise can result in sustainable weight loss.

Shake It includes an abundance of non­-starchy healthy vegetables with quality protein and healthy fats every day, all designed to help you with appetite control and cravings.

The Shake It plan is divided into two healthy meals, a complete protein meal substitute and two low carb snacks each day. This simple to follow phase of the program is maintained for four weeks followed by a unique two week plateau ­preventing cleanse phase for optimal results. These two phases are what really set Shake It apart from other programs.

The Benefits of Detox During Weight Loss

Environmental toxins, such as persistent organic pollutants  (POPs), pesticide residues or toxic metals (e.g. mercury and cadmium), can all be stored in fat cells within the body and these may be released during weight loss. Once liberated, these toxins can slow down your metabolic rate, leading to feelings of sluggishness and low energy, as well as stall your weight loss progress. By supporting natural detoxification processes at regular intervals during the program, your Practitioner can help you maintain your weight loss momentum and keep you feeling well and energised.

Exercise and Muscle Health

Exercise is considered an integral part of any weight management program due to its ability to help improve body composition. The Shake It Program recommends four 40 minute sessions each week of moderate intensity exercise. Adding resistance training provides added benefits that include maintaining healthy muscle mass. If the gym is not your thing ­ join a dance class, head down to the beach for some sand jogging, or organise regular catch ups with friends at the local park and utilise the free equipment.

Professional Guidance and Support

The Shake It Program is unique as it is completely supported by your Practitioner’s knowledge and experience. Having regular consultations makes a huge difference to lasting success due to the motivation and guidance that only a qualified Practitioner can provide. The ability to discuss any challenges you may face, as well as having your own personal coach to help you celebrate your achievements are both contributing factors to the success many people have experienced with Shake It.

Take a different approach to weight loss this year: teach your body to burn fat more efficiently, whilst supporting toxin elimination – in this way you’ll remain happy and healthy whilst following the program and maintain your results long term. Remember, your Practitioner is here to help guide and
motivate you every step of the way to achievable, sustainable weight loss.
