IS THE STANDARD AMERICAN DIET GOOD FOR US?

from YOUR LIFE NOW show with Coach Rea Wilke · host Rea Wilke

"The More you Know"  Are you a victim of your own health issues? Do you follow the standard American diet? What are some of issues you’ve been experiencing because of your diet? Are you ready to take a stand for your health and make some positive changes? My guest Erica Petrosky followed the standard American Diet all the way to 206 lbs. and was very unhealthy – she was diagnosed with thyroid disease and high cholesterol at the  of age 24.  She worked harder and exercised and lost some weight, weighing in at around 150 lbs at age 28; but kept the health diagnoses. At the age of 31, she was at 145lbs when she was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes by a general practitioner and was put on the standard diabetes medication, she began low-carb diet to control her glucose while continuing to follow current "low fat" guidelines of the American Medical Association;  the following months proved very hard on her body and brutal on her energy levels: At the age of 32 she lost too much weight (down to 119lbs) and had to correct it because her normal female functions had ceased After doing some, well TONS, of research online about autoimmune diseases (LADA/Type 1 diabetes and Hashimoto's Thyroid Disease. She came across a paper, "Cereal Grain Sword" by Dr. Loren Cordain of Colorado State University that proved to be the gateway to the answers she was seeking.  Through his research, Cordain was able to connect cereal grains to autoimmune disorders!  WOW! - Just think about that... the very food that we have been seeing as the staple of the American diet for, well, as long as she remember. She researched more and began to incorporate what she learned in her life.  Contact Coach Rea today: http://YourLifeNow.info
