GNLD - GR² Control Appetite Reducer

www.goldenproducts.co.za

Appetite Reducer:

Receptors in the digestive tract “learn” to feel full. For many people, these receptors have learned to feel full on too many kilojoules, and the desire to overeat overrides all other neural signals. These receptors can be “re-programmed” to feel full on smaller portions of food. GNLD’s GR² Control Appetite Reducer uses glucomannan to help create the feeling of fullness, without the kilojoules. GR² Control Appetite Reducer is a safe, natural alternative to chemical appetite suppressants.


Why Fibre to Curb Appetite?

  • Fibre adds “bulk” without adding kilojoules. Naturally occurring fibre absorbs water in the stomach and increases in volume, helping you to feel full faster, naturally.
  • Fibre plays an important role in carbohydrate metabolism by delaying gastric emptying and slowing the release of carbohydrates into the bloodstream, thus helping to minimise insulin response.
  • Non-habit-forming. Fibre provides a safe, natural alternative to potentially harmful “diet pills.”

Why GNLD GR² Control Appetite Reducer?

  • Contains glucomannan (Konjac flour) which expands up to 50 times its weight in water, along with five other sources of fibre.
  • Exclusive formula works with your body to create the feeling of fullness on fewer kilojoules.
  • Helps control glycemic response by slowing carbohydrate release into the bloodstream, thereby encouraging the body to burn fat for fuel, instead of placing it in storage.
  • Convenient. Taken before mealtime, two tablets provide hunger-curbing fullness and satisfaction on less food.
  • No added sodium, sugar, or other sweeteners. Zero kilojoules per serving.
  • No artificial colors, flavors or preservatives.

Product Features:

  • Unique mix of 6 fibre sources.
  • Includes Konjac flour, a rich source of glucomannan fibre, which can expand up to 50 times its weight, providing hunger-curbing fullness.
  • A natural way to control appetite - An important part of a sensible weight loss plan.
  • Each serving provides 1 gram of dietary fibre and zero kilojoules.
  • Tested safe and effective.
  • No artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives.

Pregnancy Planning Starts with Good Nutrition

News You Can Use: Part 2

While many women may wait for a positive pregnancy test as the green light for improving their diet such as stopping alcoholic beverage consumption, and generally adopting healthy lifestyle habits, research suggests that a mom's habits before conception also influence her baby's well-being at birth and for his or her entire lifetime. Because many pregnancies are not planned and the developing foetus is highly susceptible to birth defects and other problems during the first few weeks of pregnancy (when many women may not even realise that they are pregnant), achieving healthy weight and getting the recommended amounts of essential nutrients like calcium, folic acid, essential fatty acids and choline before pregnancy, is particularly important.
Striving to eat a healthy diet rich in a variety of foods is key to getting proper nutrition to ensure optimal maternal health. Most nutrition experts agree that preconception planning for all women should include advice to start taking a prenatal multivitamin/mineral supplement.

A Healthier Weight Equals a Healthier Pregnancy.

In the United States, more than one half of pregnant women are over weight or obese, and 8% of reproductive-aged women are extremely obese, putting them at a greater risk of pregnancy complications. Reducing kilojoules through physical activity, can help achieve a healthier weight before becoming pregnant. The use of meal replacement drinks rich in high quality protein may help boost success, too. In a recent randomised, controlled study, researchers investigated the effect of an energy-restricted diet with or without meal replacements in a group of overweight women. After 12 weeks, both groups lost weight, however the rate of responders (a weight loss of >5%) was higher among the meal replacement users (77%) compared to the control group (50%).

Common Myths About Pregnancy Weight Gain.

Myth 1: I need to "eat for two".

Not True!
Eating for two is not necessary. In fact eating for two may cause you to gain too much weight, which is not good for you or your baby. During the first trimester, you don't require any extra kilojoules. During the second trimester 1400 additional kilojoules a day are recommended and during the last trimester that number increases to 1800 additional kilojoules per day.

Myth 2: The more weight I gain, the healthier my baby will be.

Wrong Again!
Gaining too much weight can increase your risk of having a C-section, early delivery, or a bigger baby, which can complicate the birthing process.

Myth 3: I'm at my ideal weight so I don't have to worry about how much weight I gain during pregnancy.

Truth!
How much weight you need to gain during pregnancy should be discussed with your doctor. If you are at an ideal body weight at the time you become pregnant, the average recommended weight gain during pregnancy is between 11-16 Kgs.

GNLD Aloe Vera Plus Golden Products

The effects of herbs and aloe have remained a mystery of nature for thousands of years.

Throughout history people have supported the use of aloe and herbs to help relieve headaches, upset stomachs and many other ailments of the body. Even though there is little laboratory evidence to support claims made through the years, there is likewise no hard evidence to the contrary.


Features:

Highest quality imported, natural Aloe Vera.
Sweetened with fructose.
Contains Chamomile and Ginseng.

Benefits:

Guaranteed fresh and potent.
Contains only natural flavours.
A nutritional drink enhanced with two of the most widely used of all herbs.

The Mystery of Aloe Vera

So-called “folk” remedies have proliferated throughout the many ages of mankind. In fact, almost the entire development of what we now refer to as “modern” medicine has taken place in the last two centuries, and most of that in the past fifty years. Two hundred years of giant strides have unquestionably lengthened life expectancies and provided many preventive solutions to age-old maladies. But, somehow the human species has survived, and often thrived, for thousands of centuries without the benefits of “modern” medicine. How could that occur? Because nature, which provides man with materials for nutrition (food), materials for shelter (wood, mud, stone, etc.)... materials, in fact, for every aspect of life (water, air, sunlight, etc.), also provides man with materials for renewal and rebuilding (penicillin, for example, may be refined and processed from simple bread moulds).

It is highly probable that the Aloe Vera plant of today differs very little from its form when dinosaurs roamed the earth. It is speculation, of course, but it is not too difficult to imagine early man gratefully rubbing the Aloe Vera juice on the badly damaged skin he must certainly have suffered in his first fumbling attempts to master the use of fire. Somehow, a belief in the properties of Aloe Vera has apparently followed mankind throughout the time of his reign on earth - all the way to the present.

Aloe Vera users today acclaim an almost unlimited variety of applications. What is the truth about Aloe Vera?

The truth is - nobody really knows. The “mystery” of Aloe Vera remains a scientific riddle after centuries of intensely concentrated research in many countries all over the world. Yet, ever-greater numbers of people swear by it for relief of a wide variety of ailments and general restoration of vitality in old, tired bodies, and the like. Does it work? For thousands of years millions have thought so... yet the mystery remains.

GNLD makes no claims for the functions of GNLD Aloe Vera-Plus beyond its exceptional purity, safety and consistency. They painstakingly processed this wholly naturally occurring product and added herbal extracts of Chamomile and Ginseng, all used and cherished throughout man’s history. They then put the GNLD name and reputation behind it - even though there is very little hard laboratory evidence to substantiate the myriad of claims made by millions of users over a period of many recorded centuries. Why? Because there is absolutely no hard evidence to refute those claims. And every once in a while - rarely - the tides of scientific acceptance are turned by the tidal wave of public acceptance.

GNLD’s Aloe Vera-Plus. It just might make you a believer!

People often try to solve their physical and mental problems created by day-to-day pressures by turning to alcohol and drugs. The medical community tries to solve this situation by recommending prescriptions for various drugs. This can often lead to the greater problem of drug dependency.

Today, people around the world are turning, as they have for centuries, to naturally occurring Aloe Vera products in an effort to deal with some of the negative elements associated with modern lifestyles.

Knowing this to be the case and knowing of Aloe Vera’s illustrious history, GNLD has applied that knowledge and developed GNLD Aloe Vera-Plus. But, as the name implies, this product goes beyond providing the benefits of naturally occurring Aloe Vera by including herbs for their folkloric benefits and fructose to offer quick energy. Aloe Vera-Plus is specially formulated and targeted to help your body overcome the impact brought on by today’s active lifestyle.

Key to Maintaining Weight Loss - A Little Planning & Lots of Vigilance

Why is it that some people who have lost weight keep it off, while others gain it back?
To understand more about 'successful losers', researchers from Brown University and the University of Colorado established The National Weight Control Registry (NWCR) in 1994.
The NWCR is the largest prospective investigation of long term successful weight loss maintenance, tracking over 10, 000 individuals.

What they've found is that weight regain is not inevitable.
In their latest analysis of 3,000 members who participated in the registry for a decade, NWCR researchers noted that, while some regain is typical, almost all of the participants maintained a substantial loss even after 10 years - an average of 24 kgs at five years, and a 23 kgs loss at 10 years.
What emerged is that successful losers usually;
• Track their food intake
• Follow a weight-loss program or count kilojoules
• Eat breakfast regularly
• Follow a low kilojoule, low fat diet, taking in about 7500 kilojoules or less daily
• Limit their dining out - on average, three times weekly (fast food less than once a week)
• Eat similar foods regularly, and dont splurge much on holidays
• Weigh themselves at least weekly
• Watch less than 10 hours of tv per week (the South African average is 30+ hours)

The NWCR investigators have also discovered that:
• 90% of successful losers average about an hour of exercise daily, underscoring the importance of making time to be active.
• A key safety zone for weight maintenance is between 2 and 3 kgs.
That is, if people regain 2 kgs, they need ti put on the brakes and get back to a better eating and activity plan.

The take home message from this ongoing research is that constant vigilance about what you eat and how much, is important.
So is staying active and keeping track of your weight so you can regroup if the scale starts to creep upward.
