The KetoSystem Explained

The KetoSystem is a natural fat loss system, which uses the body's own metabolism to burn fat. Available only from healthcare professionals The KetoSystem is based on a person gaining a maximum of 20% of calories from low GI (glycaemic Index) carbohydrates, 30% of calories from fat and a minimum of 50% of calories from protein. The use of only low GI carbohydrates by The KetoSystem ensures that the body does not produce high levels of insulin. This is important as high levels of insulin will cause the body to store carbohydrates as fat and stops fat being converted to energy. This has the effect of not only making a person fat, but will keep them fat. Similarly, the high protein content of The KetoSystem is critical as it ensures the maintenance of muscle mass, the place where fat is converted to energy

Increase Energy

While the prevention of disease is the main reason for implementing the Zone/Wellness system, your energy levels will also improve, giving you lasting energy throughout the day and avoiding any mid afternoon energy dip. The Zone/wellness system achieves this by reducing high glycaemic index (GI) foods, which rapidly raise blood sugar level, the drop them just as quickly. This leads to a rebound hypoglycaemia (low Blood sugar Level), which causes fatigue and 'foggy' thinking. When blood sugar levels drop, this predisposes individuals to sugar cravings. By following the Zone/wellness principles your blood sugar levels will normalize, avoiding sudden surges and drops sugar levels.

How the zone system works?

Consuming foods that your body is "adapted" to is the only way to achieve optimum health and wellness. The zone/wellness diets mimics diets consumed for millions of years, which are free from sugars and flours, and have only limited amounts of grains such as rice and millet. This style of eating bathes your genes with an ideal ratio of protein, fats and carbohydrates and provides high levels of phytonutrients, minerals and vitamins for wellness and longevity.

Muscle mass preservation

The other key to the success of the zone/wellness system is through its preservation of precious muscle tissue, which is critical for the burning of fat and clearance of excess glucose. Quality proteins are required to preserve muscle mass, along with appropriate resistance exercise. While some may view the zone/wellness system as a high protein diet, the fact is that the amount of protein in this program is just enough to preserve your valuable muscle tissue and bodily functions

Why you should throw away your scales!

Most people associate weight loss with good health, but this is not always the case. Many diets designed to reduce a person's weight do so by depleting the body's fluid levels and muscle mass. This can cause a rebound effect in weight gain, damage the immune system and, in some cases, cause irreparable harm to a person's health. Body composition (or the fat to muscle ratio) should be the focus of any "weight loss" program. Reducing body fat while preserving muscle mass is the number one Biomarker of Ageing and has been shown to be one of the best ways to promote good health, improve body shape and increase longevity

Getting the right advice!

Experts recommend that before you undertake any "weight loss" program that you consult with a healthcare professional to assess your current health status. This makes common sense and is part of the reason why the KetoSystem is available only from healthcare professionals. Your healthcare professional is the best person to explain the KetoSystem to you. He/She will be able to do a complete analysis of your body composition, help you to set goals, develop an exercise program and monitor your progress.

It's important to note that the KetoSystem is not a "weight loss" program but a fat loss program. Depending on the amount of muscle mass you have, your practitioner may want you to gain more muscle while you are losing fat.
