What are the five basic steps to weight loss? The short version

STEP 1: Reduce your consumption of refined grains is one of the vital steps to weight loss

One of the fundamental steps to weight loss is to avoid foods made with flour such as all baked goods, pasta, breaded or battered foods and processed foods. Avoid also all grains – wheat, corn, rye, oats, barley, couscous, duran, arina, kamut, matzo, semilina, spelt and wheat germ.

Once a plant has been ground into a powder such as flour, it is absorbed into our system quickly thereby creating imbalances which the body works hard to overcome. Modern wheat has a gluteomorphin/gluten which is associated with irritable bowels and mood disorders. Grains contain lectins that cause gut leakiness resulting in inflammation in the body, auto immune diseases, and brain fog. Flour products include all baked goods, pasta, breaded or battered foods, processed foods, as well as ALL grains – wheat, corn, rye oats, barley, couscous, durum, arina, kamut, matzo, semolina, spelt, triticale, wheat germ.

STEP 3: Moderate your protein consumption

Dietary fat is least likely to stimulate insulin out of the macro nutrients, protein, fat and carbohydrates, thus it provides protection during a keto weight loss diet.
