At Insulite Laboratories, we have developed a 4th element to the
Insulite MetaX System: Addiction Awareness.
Learning about and overcoming addiction to certain types of
foods is crucial if you want to transform your health by losing
weight. A little known fact is that even lean individuals can be
addicted to food.
The goal of our Addiction Awareness Plan is to wean you off of
your negative addiction to carbohydrates and sugars. We do this
in several ways:
Carb Reduction without Withdrawal Symptoms
In order to avoid the dreaded "rebound effect" (the immediate
regaining of weight after stopping a diet), the Insulite System
slowly reduces your intake of carbs and sugars, by minimal
amounts each week, until you reach an optimum level of these
foods. This considerably slow reduction in consumption of carbs/sugars
tricks your brain into accepting as normal the increasingly
smaller amounts of these negative foods.
An extra benefit of this gradual approach enables you to avoid
withdrawal symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, depression and
drowsiness. It is the effort to alleviate your withdrawal
symptoms, such as anxiety and false hunger pains, which drives
you over and over again to ingest larger and larger amounts of carbs/sugars.
Switching Circuits
Additionally, your addiction to carbs/sugars is primarily driven
by the profound ability of these foods to stimulate your
dopamine, serotonin and endorphin brain circuits. These circuits
are the neurochemical pathways which produce your feelings of
pleasure and contentment, as well as helping you dull both
emotional and physical pain.
The circuits that are stimulated by
high carbohydrate foods and sugars are the same addictive
circuits that are stimulated by drugs such as alcohol, cocaine
and heroin. This is why dieting is so difficult - and willpower
is not enough - to make a permanent lifestyle change.
Insulite Laboratories recognizes that exercise also stimulates
these same pathways. Therefore, while the Insulite Nutrition
Plan is slowly weaning you off carbs/sugars, the Insulite
Exercise Plan is gradually stimulating these same neural pathways thereby directing you toward the level of physical activity
that is right for you.
The end result is that these important neurochemical pathways
stay balanced and that food withdrawal symptoms are eliminated
or at least greatly reduced. In a reasonable period of time,
this program can enable you to prefer exercising over ingesting carbs/sugars as your primary source of pleasure, contentment and
emotional balance.
Alleviating Withdrawal with Cooperative Behavior
Recent research shows that any time you engage in cooperative
behaviors – such as volunteering or being part of a team effort
- with the end goal of helping yourself and/or others - the
dopamine, serotonin and endorphin circuits mentioned above are
stimulated. One reason that 12 step programs and other support
groups are so successful is that being part of a group or
working with others helps stimulate these circuits, thus greatly
alleviating the withdrawal symptoms of participants.
The Insulite Support Network provides a similar cooperative
platform which helps our clients mitigate their withdrawal
symptoms. In addition to receiving weekly messages of motivation
and information, customers have the opportunity of communicating
with us at any time. This creates a symbiotic, cooperative,
healing and helping environment that has the capacity to elevate
moods, increase feelings of contentment and lessen the emotional
distress that often comes about from making major lifestyle
changes.
"I have been on the Insulite
System for approx 3 months. I have lost 33 lbs, my liver
functions are normal and my A1C came back at 5.1, down from 8.03 months ago. I
was taking 10 Glucovance pills daily, now I take only 2 pills in the
AM. My blood sugar is normal, my energy is higher than it has been in
years and I feel great. Insulite along with a change in my diet has
changed my life.
I tell everyone that asks me what I have done to change my life, about the Insulite program.
Your product is fantastic. I have
cut out all sweets, flour, dairy and have no cravings."

"In less than 3 weeks I've started losing
weight again after being
"stuck" on Weight Watchers for about a year. I've lost about 4
lbs since
starting Insulite but more significantly my blood pressure is
well within normal limits now and I can tell my metabolism is
better. I am not getting that slump between meals and am able to control
between-meal snacking, and I have a lot of energy throughout the day rather
than periods where I need to nap. I just ordered the 6 months
supply. Thank you!"

"Researchers agree that insulin
resistance is central to the metabolic syndrome. When target
cells are unresponsive to insulin, the pancreas responds by
pouring even more insulin into the bloodstream, leading to high
levels of the hormone in the blood, a condition called
compensatory hyperinsulinemia. The high level of insulin in the
blood forces glucose into cells but also starts the events
leading to arterial damage and eventually a heart attack. Under
these conditions, a person may not manifest either diabetes or
heart disease but could well be on the way to either or both."
"I wanted to let you know how much I
appreciate your caring advice and guiding me towards taking control of my health.
It's hard to express in
words how long I have been trying to find the answers you have so easily
provided for me.
I am so excited about the positive changes in my health and I
can't wait to see where I am six months from now, yet alone the year. Thank
you again!"

"Simply losing 5-7% of your body fat (typically 10-15 pounds) and increasing your physical activity by taking a brisk walk 4-5 times a week can reduce your risk of developing Type
II Diabetes by almost 60%."
"I started your product and found
it really boosts my system,
helping me get off ground zero, and stop the spiral downwards.
It gave me the
energy to start exercising and prepare healthy meals.
You are all very supportive, even though I am on the other side
of the world
(Australia). I am very glad that I am on your product, your
weekly messages
are also very encouraging, when I am finding things a bit
harder. Thank you for everything."
"A non-pharmacologic treatment for these
patients is needed, since drugs prescribed to lower blood
pressure have been shown to actually worsen carbohydrate and
lipid metabolism in Syndrome X patients, negating the beneficial
effects of those drugs."
"I cannot believe the difference
the Insulite System has made in how I feel. My appetite has
changed tremendously. I do not crave carbs and sugar and my
appetite is somewhat diminished."

"...approximately 90% of
overweight Hispanic children with a family history for type 2 diabetes have at least one
feature of the metabolic syndrome and 30% possess the metabolic syndrome.
Our results support the view that improving insulin resistance may be crucial in the prevention
of both type 2 diabetes and premature cardiovascular disease in this at-risk subpopulation
of Hispanic youth."
