There are many different strategies out there today for losing weight - it can be so confusing for people who struggle with their weight.

Low carb or low fat?

Many used to think that losing weight is just a matter of cutting a meal or two out, but recent research shows that eating more meals a day is better.

Some say simply exercising more is the key, while others say just make some changes in diet or add some pills to help lose weight.

Even the type of exercise people suggest varies.

Some of the latest research is showing that there may be other factors at play, besides just the above areas of which foods to eat, how to exercise, and good supplements to take.

Dr. Suzanne Gudakunst has studied this field extensively, and has now released a report showing that many of the typical foods we eat cause problems in our digestive tract that makes losing weight a losing battle for many people.

We now know that plaque deposits and parasites in the gut are two problems that complicate the issue of weight loss for many people.

These digestive issues can be addressed, making diet and exercise changes much more effective for some people.

I know everyone is looking for the magic pill, but if it existed we’d all be using it!

Yes, there are foods we eat that work against our weight loss goals - like high-glycemic carbohydrate-rich foods.

And yes, we do need to do a moderate amount of exercise each day, as well.

Until we deal with the digestive issues mentioned above, however, the usual diet and exercise strategies may not be enough for many of us.
