8. The Doc Cady “Candy Bar a Day”
Weight Loss Program
• 1 lb. of fat = 3,500 kcal (“calories”)
• 3,500 / 7 = 500 calories per day
– You need to not eat’em, or burn’em
• Starving yourself slows your metabolism down, and you
lose muscle mass
– Therefore: reduce 250 calories; burn 250 calories
• 250 calories = no candy bar, or “NO” to 1 & ½
Cokes
• 250 calories = ½ - ¾ hour on treadmill
• NET = 500 calories per day, or 1 lb. lost per
week

9. One problem…
• It doesn’t work!
• TBL: It’s the
INSULIN
RESPONSE
• RX: EAT LESS
CARBS AND
SUGAR!!!

10. Glycemic index
• A measure of how fast a
carbohydrate triggers a rise in
circulating blood sugar.
• The higher the number, the greater
the blood sugar response.

13. Doc Cady “Candy Bar a Day”
program FLAWS:
• Not all calories from food do the same
thing to your body:
– Removing 250 cal of sweet potatoes is not
the same as removing 250 calories from
candy bar.
• Doesn’t account for thyroid or thyroid
resistance.
• This program only focuses on WEIGHT
LOSS, and not OPTIMUM HEALTH

28. 2 Very Common Causes of Fat Gain
• Hyperinsulinisn; “Metabolic Syndrome”

29. 2 Very Common Causes of Fat Gain
• Estrogen and Progesterone imbalances

30. Foundational Hormone Axis
The Bermuda Triangle of Fat And Fatigue!

31. Adrenals?

32. ADRENALS
Common Symptoms of Adrenal Dysfunction
 Weight gain, especially in waist hips and thighs ( cortisol
response)
 Crave sugar/starch and sometimes salt
 Fatigue
 Low blood pressure which may becomes elevated in middle age
 Allergies
 Exercise does not promote weight loss . . . And may even gain!
 Low blood sugar usually after lunch ( the low energy/sleepy drop)
 Muscle loss and flab even with exercise
 Wakes up every few hours at night
 Is more hungry during the day if eats breakfast
 Low or no libido!

33. SEX STEROIDS
ESTRADIOL
 Improves insulin sensitivity ( less cortisol, less fat storage)
 Improves muscle mass, strength, and metabolism
 Better muscle mass = increased metabolic rate, and you burn
more calories
 Increased serotonin function which decreases cravings and
desires for comfort foods
 Inhibits MAO enzyme activity, which prolongs activity of
serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine and helps to decrease
appetite
 Restores normal sleep stages, which lowers cortisol, increases
GH (growth hormone), and improves nighttime muscle repair
 More?

35. Other Symptoms Of Estradiol
Imbalances
 Weight gain
 Insomnia
 Hot flushes or flashes
 Night sweats
 Memory, communication, and attention span loss, brain “fog”,
depression, and/or anxiety to panic attacks
 Mood swings
 Aches and pain
 Incontinence
 Digestive disturbances
 Sensory function loss
 Ageing skin . . . thinning, wrinkles, sagging

36. Sex Steroid- Progesterone
 Has a calming effect, acting like a benzodiazapene to the brain
 Enhances mood
 Regulates fluid balance, sodium mineral balance
 Balances blood sugar
 Necessary for fertility
 Increases energy and libido
 Helps relieve menopausal symptoms
 Decreases risk of endomettrial cancer and may help protect against
breast cancer, fibrocystic breasts, and osteoporosis

37. Key? Labs
example:
As an educational consultant to licensed MD’s,
these are the labs I recommend:
For Adrenal /Hyperinsulinism:
3hr GTT with concomitant insulin blood draws
fasting draw for glucose, insulin and cortisol
1hr draw for glucose and insulin
2hr draw for glucose and insulin
3hr draw for glucose, insulin and cortisol

38. Why ARE YOU FAT?
• 2 out of the top10 reasons why you are fat;
Sex Steroids and Metabolic Syndrome.
• More?
– Food Allergies
– Viruses (EBV, Herpes and CMV)
– Stress (emotional and/or physical)
– Leptin Resistance
– Sleep disorders
– (Bad dietary choices!!)
