In The Super Health Diet Craichy provides readers with a wealth of clear, concise information for his Super Health Diet, which is based on his scientifically proven “Four Corners of Superfood Nutrition.” He also covers the dynamic role of proteins in weight loss; anti-aging benefits of eating the Four Corners way; meal frequency, snacks and eating speed; exercise, weight loss and health.It is highly recommended that you listen to a two-part free audio interview below, which Ben Greenfield conducted with KC Craichy. How do you recognize a fad diet? Does the type of diet even matter? There are a multitude of pills, prescriptions and procedures out there. What are some of the more serious dangers and complications of the more popular ones? What about spas and clinics for weight loss? Do those actually work? You talk about the thyroid hormones in weight loss. How does hypothyroidism cause someone to gain weight, and what can be done about it? What about sex hormones, such as testosterone? How can loss of that cause weight gain, and what can be done about it? Aside from aesthetic reasons, what are some other reasons people might not know about for losing weight?

I don't want the muscle any bigger, I just want to loose fat, especially the fat right under my knee. I have done the calf raises on the stairs, but is there anything else I could try? Also, I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but I am very hyper-mobile especially in my knees. Listener Mike has a call-in question about PowerCranks. Ron asks: Several podcasts had mention of flax seed in a positive vein. My research differs. I stopped taking Flax Seed Oil about a year ago because of its very high Phytoestrogen content. Mens Health had an article on Soy Milk, also high in phytoestrogen, awhile back in which a male was drinking two quarts a day and his breasts were enlarging. Listener Ranieri has a call-in question about knee pain from riding a bike indoors vs. outdoors. Listener Mer asks: Have you ever heard of bar method? In Chicago and LA it's taking off like wildfire. Lot of pretty bold claims by this Burr Leonard Woman. Lots of youtube coverage as well. I think I (and my muscles) would get bored with this formulaic type class 3 times per week. -------------------------------------------- Remember, if you have any trouble listening, downloading, or transferring to your mp3 player just e-mail [email protected] And don't forget to leave the podcast a ranking in iTunes - it only takes 2 minutes of your time and helps grow our healthy community!
