What is Empowered Nutrition?
Empowered Nutrition is the completely personalized nutrition solution that empowers you to reach and maintain your physical goals for life.

How we feel, how we look, and more importantly, how healthy we are, has more to do with nutrition than anything else.

Most people know this already. What most people don’t know is specifically how they should eat, based on their unique characteristics.

Even fewer people are aware of the dramatic - and rapid - changes in how they look and feel that will take place by changing how, what and when they eat.

By the way, if you’re looking for the Member’s Area, you need to go here.

What is a Personalized Nutrition Program?
A Personalized Nutrition Program is an intensive, step-by-step, carefully crafted strategy - you could almost call it a battle plan - that will take you from where you are now to where you want to be.

It empowers you to make the changes that you already know would benefit you by giving you the knowledge, the tools and the support you need. And it’s simple and easy to follow, because it tells you exactly what to do on every single day.

But Empowered Nutrition is not a magic quick-fix solution. Achievable, permanent weight loss requires long-term changes in behavior. That’s why your Program also focuses on developing your long-term goals, changing how you think about food, and giving you the knowledge and the tools you need to eat right for life.

In fact, you get life-long access to the exclusive online Members Area with your purchase just for that reason: so we can support you every step of the way for as long as you need it. You’ll also find answers to frequently asked questions, regularly updated nutrition news and information, tips and tricks and much more.

Why do Personalized Nutrition Programs work?
They work for two main reasons: first, because they’re based on science. Second, because they eliminate the two main obstacles to diet success: hunger and complexity.

You won’t be hungry because you’ll get so much food that you might not even be able to eat it all. You’ll still lose weight because of the types of food you’re eating and the way the food groups are combined and balanced in each meal.

You won’t be overwhelmed by complicated formulas and you won’t have to count calories, since we do all that hard work for you. All you have to do is follow your Program. You’ll shed fat and gain muscle and within weeks you’ll look better than ever!

The Science to becoming Empowered

The formula for success.  Identify the problem and work diligently and intelligently to solve that problem and if that is not successful, ask for help and become empowered.
The problem.
Millions of people struggle with their weight. Obesity has become one of the developed world’s most pressing problems. Some 50 percent of Canadians are overweight, and the statistics for Americans are even worse.

Why?
The simple answer is too many calories. If you consume more calories than you burn, the remainder is stored in your body as fat. To lose one pound of fat requires you to achieve a deficit of 3,600 calories.

That’s the pure science of weight loss. But it doesn’t explain why so many people are having so much trouble these days. After all, the laws of thermodynamics are the same now as they were 100 years ago, but being overweight was not the problem then that it is now.

The answer lies in what people are eating. Processed foods composed mainly of white flour and/or sugar are more popular now than ever before, according to the US Department of Agriculture. In other words, the problem is related to carbohydrates.

The solution.
But carbohydrates are the body’s primary source of energy. Diets like the high-protein Atkin’s Diet that drastically reduce carbohydrates in favour of protein and fat aren’t just dangerous, they don’t work.

The solution is the Glycemic Index (GI). The GI was developed by Dr. David J. Jenkins in 1981 at the University of Toronto. The GI ranks foods according to their effect on blood sugar levels.

By mostly eating carbohydrates that have a low GI, as well as lean protein and healthy fats, stable blood sugar levels can be maintained. You’ll feel full longer, because these foods digest slowly and give you a steady supply of energy. The cravings that are a result of blood sugar spikes and subsequent drops are reduced or eliminated.

The Glycemic Index is what makes The Zone by Dr. Barry Sears work. It’s what makes the South Beach diet by Dr. Arthur Agatson work too. And Rick Gallop, formerly the president of the Heart and Stroke Foundation in Ontario, based his entire book, The G.I. Diet, on it.

All of these researchers agree that managing blood sugar levels through hormonal balance is the key to effective and sustainable weight-loss.

The Empowered difference.
Empowered Nutrition takes this research and proven effectiveness to the next level by working with your trainer, fitness consultant or nutritionist to create the ideal Program for you.

Your profile is carefully studied to take into account everything necessary for your success. Each day of your Program is crafted by a trained nutrition professional to ensure that:

* You receive a ratio of protein, carbohydrates and healthy fats that is precisely designed to achieve the optimal hormonal and energy response in your body.
* You receive the calories suited to your goal, whether it’s to shed body fat, maintain a healthy body weight, or bulk up. Time-consuming calorie counting is eliminated.
* You have small meals during the day in addition to breakfast, lunch and dinner so that you don’t feel hungry and you stay energetic.
* You have a meal after each workout, so that your body can build and repair muscle and replenish its energy stores after the strain of working out.

Exercise + Nutrition = Results. That’s the bottom-line!

Womens Nutrition

Make nature work for you.
Women today are busier than ever before.

The temptation to eat poorly because it’s quick and convenient pops up frequently. Many women try to exercise and eat healthy when they can, but it often feels like an uphill battle.

At the same time, women are bombarded with a huge variety of often conflicting information about nutrition. The magazine headlines on the grocery store racks are always advertising some new diet or super food. And there’s always a new celebrity on TV claiming she got her amazing results from this or that new diet.

To make matters worse, society puts an unhealthy amount of pressure on women to maintain what is often an unrealistic body image, leading some women to feel anxious, depressed or even develop eating disorders.

All too often, the most important thing in life falls by the wayside: good health.

20 percent of women are iron deficient.

This compares to only 3 percent of men, because women have naturally smaller amounts of iron reserves and because iron is lost during menstruation.

Women are also at higher risk for developing osteoporosis (50 percent of women compared to 25 percent of men are expected to develop it in their lifetimes) and need more calcium and Vitamin D to prevent it. Doctors agree the best way to get these nutrients is through proper nutrition.

Attaining and maintaining health is the foundation of Empowered Nutrition. With Empowered Nutrition, you will:

* Noticeably and dramatically feel and look better as you reach and maintain a healthy weight and body fat percentage.
* Improve your levels of energy and eliminate those sleepy daytime periods as you satisfy all of your basic nutritional needs with the perfect ratio and amount of protein, carbohydrates and healthy fats.
* Boost your immune system, improve your cardiovascular system, promote healthy bones and teeth and fight off iron deficiency as you receive all the vitamins and minerals you need.
* Help fight off cancer as the amount of anti-oxidants in your diet increases.

You’ll also see major changes in how you look.

You’ll shed excess body fat, tone your muscles and improve your skin. And you’ll enjoy yourself doing it.

That’s because Empowered Nutrition is also about having fun. You only eat the foods you enjoy, and if you slip up, it’s no big deal.

Life has enough struggles. Getting healthy shouldn’t be one of them!

Mens Nutrition

ENERGIZED + TRANSFORMED + EMPOWERED
Direct from the Brown University Men’s Nutrition Education Section:

Eating a diet that provides all the nutrients your body needs helps you to focus more productively on your academics, maintain or reduce your weight, make a real impact on your mood, and perform better in sports. Eating well also dramatically reduces your chances of getting some of the chronic diseases that affect men at a higher rate than women.

In business and in life in general, men are constantly called upon to be their best. In today’s time-strapped society, that often leads to eating poorly. Men often end up relying on caffeine instead of food for energy.

These choices show and not just in waistlines. Many men are faced with the prospects of poor health due to poor eating habits, from heart disease to elevated cholesterol to liver and kidney problems.

If you’re exercising but you don’t feel as though you’re getting the results you want, Empowered Nutrition can help.
