The document discusses how the average American consumes 22 teaspoons of sugar per day through processed foods, sugars, starches, breads, pastas, potatoes and snacks which are all converted to glucose in the body. High carb diets cause the pancreas to work overtime which can lead to dysfunction over time. Foods high in carbs like pastries and fries can cause weight gain while the body burns carbs before fats, so foods like apples and whole wheat bread can prevent weight loss. The document recommends avoiding "white" carbs and refined carbs in processed foods after a diet protocol in order to avoid putting fat back on.

3. X 22
The average American eats 22 tsp. of Sugar per day.
(Or 2 cans of Soda and 1 Chocolate Bar)

4. 1. Processed Foods
2. Sugars
3. Starches
4. Breads
5. Pastas
6. Potatoes
7. Snacks
8. Sweets
All of these are converted into glucose (sugar) in your body
Carbs consumed are broken down into glucose in the bloodstream and what is
not needed for energy is consumed by insulin and converted into fat.
High carb diets cause the pancreas to work overtime, causing it to become worn
out or dysfunctional.

5. Foods that make you gain
weight:
Pastries, French Fries
Foods that do not make
you gain weight:
Lettuce, Celery

6. Foods that can prevent you
from losing weight:
Apples, whole wheat bread
Both foods are very nutritious but they can prevent you from
losing weight or slow down weight loss because our bodies
chronologically burn carbohydrates/sugars before fats.
This is why these foods are not allowed on Phases 1 or 2 of
the diet.

7.  The body stores approx. 3 days worth of carbs
 Until 100% of fat loss goal is achieved, we restrict
sugars (simple and complex)
 As long as sugar is being consumed, the body is not
burning fat for energy

8. After the protocol you want to avoid 'white' carbs, or
carbs that can be white, or are 'enriched' like Wonder
Bread.
It's best to avoid 'white stuff' if you want to avoid
putting on fat.

9.  Refined carbs found in many processed, convenient
foods
 Often devoid of many natural nutrients
 Greater risk that some of this energy will be
converted into fat and stored
 However, natural, simple carbohydrates are the best
carbs to include in your diet

10.  Those in wholegrain form such as oats, brown
rice, whole wheat bread
 Broken down into glucose more slowly
 Provide a gradual, steady stream of energy throughout
the day
 Devoid of additives and preservatives
