Weight Management Programme
Successful weight management is not just about dieting or even discipline. It is about changing your behaviour.
Taking a meal replacement or nutritional supplements without changing your diet and lifestyle is not enough to ensure that you will lose weight. In order to lose weight, you must consistently burn more calories than you take in. Equally important is to maintain good nutrition choosing a varied and balanced diet, to help your body maintain health, strength and energy.
Almost everyone would agree that fad diets for quick weight loss almost never result in permanent weight loss.
Lighten-Up! Nutritional Weight Management Programme, when combined with exercise and a healthy diet, can be a key to your new lifestyle of life-long successful and healthy weight management.
Lighten-Up! Nutritional Protein Drink Mix
This drink mix is packed with natural source ingredients to provide efficient, balanced nutrition to help maintain health and energy while making the lifestyle changes needed for successful lifelong weight management.
Key Ingredients:
Natural CoQ10: CoQ10 assists in the production of energy by the cells, thereby playing an important role in energy metabolism within the body. It also contributes to the efficient functioning of the immune system and helps maintain heart health.
Alpha Lipoic Acid: Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) plays a role in fat metabolism, acting as a co-factor for energy production. As both water-soluble and a fat-soluble antioxidant, it provides internal cell protection and cell membrane (external) protection against damage caused by harmful free radicals. ALA also impacts on glucose metabolism.
Siberian Ginseng: Siberian Ginseng is considered an ‘adaptogen’ because it helps the body adapt to changing circumstances. The use of this herb dates back about 2000 years and it has been used widely to help maintain optimal stamina, support physical and mental well-being and to maintain feelings of energy and vitality.
Organic Almonds: for many years almonds were considered ‘fattening’. However, studies indicate that those who include nuts, such as almonds, in their diet tend to have lower body mass indexes. Although almonds are high in fat and calories, the protein (about 18%) and fibre content may help you feel fuller for longer and so eating them in moderation when following a restricted diet may aid weight loss.
Almonds, when eaten as part of a diet low in saturated fat, may also contribute to heart health by helping to maintain normal cholesterol levels.
Organic Quinoa: Quinoa is a high protein seed that is used as a grain. It is recognised widely as a good source of a complete protein. It also provides a range of other important nutrients such as fibre and slow-releasing carbohydrates that help to maintain blood sugar levels and help keep you feeling fuller for longer.
L – Carnitine: L – Carnitine plays an important role in fat metabolism. It is the amino acid that carries fat molecules through the cell walls where they can then be utilised to produce energy.
Lighten-Up! provides the vital trace mineral Chromium. It plays a vital role in the metabolism of glucose in the body and is important for normal carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism.
Enzymes, vital to digestion are also included, ensuring the essential nutrients in this protein drink are easily digested and absorbed by those of all ages. Lighten-Up! provides useful nutritional insurance for those recovering from illness or unable to eat solid food.

Algae
One particular species of blue-green algae,
Aphanizomenon flos-aquae, or simply AFA, helps:
· Detoxify
· Provide more energy
· Improve skin condition
· Digestive problems and regular bowel function
· Defeat food cravings
· Better sleep
· Improve mental awareness
· Relieve stress
The best blue green algae comes from the Upper Klamath Lake in the Cascade
Mountains, Southern Oregon, USA. Fed by seventeen pure mountain streams and
geothermal springs, it has ten metres of mineral deposits: these are the Earth’s
most mineral rich alkaline waters.
Growing here is Nature’s most complete and balanced food having many remarkable
properties – nothing equals its nutritional profile.
AFA – The Heartiest Food on Earth
Why is AFA algae so powerful a “super-food” and so effective in transforming the
health status of humans to vitality and boosted immunity? It is partly because
of the conditions under which AFA flourish, free from the technological
pollutants of insecticides, pesticides, herbicides, and chlorinated phenyls and
dioxins.
But why is AFA so able to tolerate environmental extremes? After evolving so
successfully for eons, AFA has developed wide and versatile enzyme systems. When
we eat AFA algae we benefit accordingly. A variety of enzymes means a generous
selection of their constituent minerals, vitamins and amino acids, all of which
are free from dangerous environmental pollutants.
There are other naturally protective substances in AFA. The glutathione molecule
was probably the Earth’s first antioxidant. It was used to shield and protect
primitive forms of blue-green algae from the burning effects of a harsh and
hostile environment. For humans, the same glutathione from AFA has been shown to
protect us from the toxic effects of a polluted environment.
