Dr. Michael Lyon and Dr. Michael Murray have joined forces to bring recent scientific discoveries to light – discoveries that can help anyone with weight and diet concerns. The message of Hunger Free Forever may sound impossible, but these experts in natural health solutions show that it CAN be done.

“We are driven by concern for people’s health,” explains naturopathic physician and co-author of Hunger Free Forever, Dr. Michael Murray. “Stopping the obesity epidemic is key to preventing so many major health problems —cardiovascular disease, diabetes, stroke, dementia, depression, even liver disease, impotence and arthritis. Obesity needs to be addressed, and fast, if we are going to improve people’s health. Individuals CAN do something about their weight. With this book we want to give them more than hope; we can help them get real results.”

Part of the Solution
The authors of Hunger Free Forever advise that there are many natural methods and products that can make it easier to reach, and maintain, a healthy weight. One key aspect of weight management is the use of fibre. In this book you will find out about the extensive scientific research behind a remarkable soluble fibre blend called PGX^®, PolyGlycoPlex^®. PGX can help re-train an overweight body so that hunger and cravings are reduced and the process of eating is, once again, under the individual’s control.

Written in an easy-to-read style, Hunger Free Forever offers many key weight loss and life style tips that can “terminate” bad relationships with food. The reader will find assistance from these health professionals for reducing stress and learning how to alter destructive habits and transform them into good habits. Using this book, you can come to understand, and control, the relationships between eating, appetite, metabolism, hormones, stress, muscle mass, attitude and glycemic index — to name a few! It just might change your life and health for the better, forever!

What is PGX?

PGX is a newly discovered blend of highly viscous soluble fiber known as PolyGlycoPlex. Used with or before each meal it promotes satiety, improves blood sugar control and supports healthy action of insulin.

The key aid to lose weight safely, effectively, and permanently is to greatly increase the consumption of dietary fiber. Unfortunately, to achieve appetite stabilizing effects very large quantities of fiber must be consumed – more than most people would ever eat. However a small, five gram serving of PGX produces a volume and viscosity that would equal as much as 4 bowls of oat bran!

The effectiveness of fiber on reducing appetite, blood sugar, and cholesterol is directly proportionate to the amount of water the fiber can absorb – its water holding capacity – and the degree of thickness or viscosity it provides in the stomach and intestine. Although there are many varieties of soluble fiber, PGX is the most viscous and soluble fiber ever discovered.

Glucose, a form of sugar, is an important fuel for your body. Carbohydrates are the main dietary sources of glucose. Rice, potatoes, bread, tortillas, cereal, milk, fruit, and sweets are all carbohydrate-rich foods.

After a meal, glucose molecules are absorbed into your bloodstream and carried to the cells, where they are used for energy. Insulin, a hormone produced by your pancreas, helps glucose enter cells. If you take in more glucose than your body needs at the time, your body stores the extra glucose in your liver and muscles in a form called glycogen. Your body can use the stored glucose whenever it is needed for energy between meals. Extra glucose can also be converted to fat and stored in fat cells.

When blood glucose begins to fall, glucagon, another hormone produced by the pancreas, signals the liver to break down glycogen and release glucose, causing blood glucose levels to rise toward a normal level. If you have diabetes, this glucagon response to hypoglycemia may be impaired, making it harder for your glucose levels to return to the normal range.

Symptoms

Symptoms of hypoglycemia include

• hunger
• nervousness and shakiness
• perspiration
• dizziness or light-headedness
• sleepiness
• confusion
• difficulty speaking
• feeling anxious or weak

Hypoglycemia can also happen while you are sleeping. You might

• cry out or have nightmares
• find that your pajamas or sheets are damp from perspiration
• feel tired, irritable, or confused when you wake upo relieve reactive hypoglycemia, some health professionals recommend taking the following steps:
• eat small meals and snacks about every 3 hours
• exercise regularly
• eat a variety of foods, including meat, poultry, fish, or nonmeat sources of protein; starchy foods such as whole-grain bread, rice, and potatoes; fruits; vegetables; and dairy products
• choose high-fiber foods
• avoid or limit foods high in sugar, especially on an empty stomach

PBX – PolyGlycoplex
PGX® is the world’s most viscous soluble fiber blend. What does viscous mean? Simply “to thicken”. Once PGX® is added to water or food it thickens or becomes viscous. The viscosity of soluble fiber is important as it relates directly to the overall health benefits.*The most important advantage of PGX® over other soluble fiber products is that significantly less PGX® is required to obtain the same important health benefits, including appetite control and reduced food cravings.*Why take PGX®?
PGX® has been clinically proven to:
• Reduce appetite comfortably and safely*
• Reduce food cravings*
• Balance metabolism*
• Improve regularity*
• Maintain glucose levels already within normal range*PGX ® helps to reduce:
• Hunger pangs*
• Rebound weight gain*
• Stress of dieting*NOTICE: You may experience a temporary change in your bowel movements as your body adjusts to the addition of the PGX®, usually in 3 to 7 days. Start off with half the dose and slowly work up to the full dose to help your body adjust to the PGX®. PGX® swells when mixed with liquid or food; therefore, it is important to drink adequate amounts of water (12 – 14 oz) immediately after ingesting PGX®.Caution: Keep out of reach of children. If you are under 18 years of age, pregnant or nursing, or have health concerns, consult your health professional before starting any weight loss plan. If taking medication, take one hour prior to, or two hours after taking PGX®.

Serving Option: PGX® helps to curb your appetite and food cravings as well as promote overall good health.* PGX® mixes instantly in water or juice but may also be added to food such as yogurt, fruit salad, oatmeal or soup.

SlimStyles weight loss program consistently lost up to two pounds per week, which was primarily body fat. In addition to the loss in body fat, the SlimStyles weight loss program maintained lean muscle mass and did not affect body water levels. The participants’ metabolic rates were normalized, making it easier to keep the weight off – no rebounding effect. (These results may vary and depend on successful participation in the SlimStyles weight loss program.)

Besides increasing insulin sensitivity, SlimStyles with PGX™ normalizes other important appetite hormones and supports healthy cholesterol levels while providing beneficial fibre. In fact, research on PGX™ is so impressive that it was featured at the American Diabetes Association’s annual meeting in June 2004.
