Need a simple secret guaranteed to speed up your weight loss?
If you answered yes, then I have something amazing to share with you.
It’s called deep breathing.
And it is a fat blasting secret so powerful it seems to defy logic. Yet study after study confirms that it works like gangbusters.
In fact, I’ll make you a promise that you won’t find anywhere else: taking deeper breaths WILL dramatically increase your health while decreasing your body fat… period!
So you should listen to what I have to say because it can make you thinner.
Here are the top 6 reasons why…
FACT: Studies performed by California university found that simple deep breathing can help you burn up to 140% more calories than riding a stationary bike.
This means that if you road your exercise bike for thirty minutes and burned 250 calories, you would have burned 350 calories just spending that time deep breathing!
FACT: Your excess body fat must be combined with oxygen BEFORE it can be released from your body.
This means that simply increasing the amount of oxygen flowing through your veins by taking deeper breaths can significantly increase the rate that your body fat melts away.
FACT: Studies have found that deep breathing supplies the oxygen to your body that is required to remove toxins from your body.
Toxins that research shows would otherwise be stored as fat.
FACT: Research shows that you only use about 25% or less of your total lung capacity.
Something guaranteed to lead to excess fat storage.
A conscious effort to take deeper breaths throughout the day can reverse this and help you get much thinner.
FACT: Oxygen increases metabolism.
Just like flames grow hotter and burn faster in the presence of more oxygen… your metabolism will melt away far more fat if you start taking deeper breaths.
FACT: Oxygen is required by our intestines to absorb nutrients.
Did you know that nutrient deficiency is the primary cause of obesity?
Breathing more deeply can help deliver the nutrients to your body that will increase metabolism, burn fat, make you thinner and exponentially improve your health.
Bottom line…
Deep breathing has too many health benefits to list.
And the best part is… it’s NOT based off “theory”. This stuff really works! Study after study confirms it.
So if you begin today to take deeper breathers… get more oxygen into your body… it will increase your weight loss.

Isn’t it strange that, when most people talk about their health and fitness, they talk about getting in shape. They usually have some event in mind: a wedding, a beach season, a vacation, or some other single event. They don’t seem to understand that what they’re saying works against their dreams of becoming lean and beautiful.
A lot of people worry about being out of shape, and they say something like “I’ve got to get in shape and burn off this fat!People never say “I’ll shed all this flab and fat, get myself in shape and keep myself healthy and lean forever.”
Of course, when we set out to lose weight, we’d like to get to our goal and have it last for the rest of our life; but we always seem to be focused on the immediate goal, not the long-term goal. This “quick-fix” mindset, makes us vulnerable to fad diets and the latest machine, gadget or gizmo that pops up on late night TV. Those ads hit you when you’re most vulnerable: it’s late, you’re tired, and the models using the item are beautiful and happy. Maybe you’ve just had a midnight snack of something you shouldn’t have: ice cream, cookies, cake, or sugary sodas. The ads get you by playing on your emotion and guilt.
It’s a shame that many American “baby boomers” grew up eating too much processed, fattening food and watching far too much TV – not learning to get out and be active. This large population is at the age now where the metabolism is slowing, and the eating habits learned over a lifetime are causing obesity and all its related problems including diabetes. There is a lot of tummy flab, abdominal fat, and loose flab, and a great deal of obesity in adult couples. All these problems are avoidable!
Once we’ve admitted what bad shape we’re in, it’s natural to want to fix the problem as fast as possible, and these products always promise fast results. Why would we want to wait and work for months, when it seems each shiny new product can give us that short-cut we crave? Well, those models didn’t get their beautiful bodies by taking a shortcut and using that product. Their health and physical appearance is part of their daily regimen, and they work hard to look the way they do. They have to proper mindset: work every day toward lifelong fitness.
No matter how silly, ridiculous or difficult some new product or regimen may seem, we’re game to give it a try. What we never seem to acknowledge, in that first flush of enthusiasm as we whip out the credit card one more time, is that these quick-fixes never work. Then, when the disappointment hits, we feel even worse for having spent money and time, and gotten no results. A lot of us then take comfort in the worst way possible for our health – in food, and usually fattening “comfort” foods. The downward spiral progresses.
Try refocusing on a new target. Rather than looking at an event that’s coming up in a couple of weeks, focus on your health for the rest of your life. Isn’t that a better goal than dropping a few pounds and then gaining it all back, plus plenty more? You’ll be much more likely to take a calm, rational look at the item or program you’re thinking of buying, and you’ll be much less likely to fall for those hyped-up ads.
An essential step is to create in your body an environment that lets you burn your fat as fast as possible. It will take some work and dedication. It’s much easier to look good when you’re 25 than when you’re 55, so it may take a little more work as we get a little older.
If you really want to make a big change in your body for the rest of your life, you need to make it a daily habit. Not just a “diet” that you go on, which suggests you’ll go off it again at some point – but you must make this change into a lifestyle. Of course, that starts in the mind. People who are consistently healthy, lean and fit all their lives do it this way.
Every day you get up, brush your teeth, get dressed and do your daily routine. Staying fit and healthy needs to be on the list of things you do each day. With everything you do and every bit of food that you put into your body, you should be aware of how it will affect your long term health and fitness, and how it will affect your fat burning. Will everything you do and eat make you overweight, or lead to a fit and healthy lifestyle?
There is good news! Research shows that you can develop new habits very quickly. Eating, drinking and exercising correctly can be very simple habits that can be developed in less than a month! You don’t need to follow impossible diets, either, or live your life in the gym. There are many ways to have a healthy eating plan and a very effective exercise routine that don’t take up excessive amounts of time or cost a lot of money.
After a few months of using the proper methods, and possibly much sooner, your body will let you know that it wants to continue on the path to good health. Maybe you’ve heard stories from people quitting smoking: They don’t have a cigarette for several days or weeks, then decide to “reward” themselves with a smoke. Many times they can’t stand the taste of the cigarette, or the other sensations that the cigarette causes. The body has begun to adjust itself to the healthier lifestyle and lets the person know it doesn’t like the unhealthy habits any more! Our bodies naturally want to be healthy, active and lean.
Becoming lean and healthy is not something you can do from the outside inwards. You won’t have a lot of success if you just follow what some diet guru has said and do a few exercises because it seems like the right thing to do. You need to shift your thinking first. Get behind the idea of staying in shape for life and making your body into a lean, healthy, beautiful fat burning furnace.

It seems that every health guru has a list of recommended dietary supplements… and each guru’s list is very different from every other guru’s!
Most lists come with very convincing reasons for each supplement: better feeling of well-being, more stamina, resistance to cancer, resistance to disease, etc.
Frankly, whenever I’ve added another supplement to the ones I’m consuming, I never observe any difference in how I feel. But maybe that’s because I usually feel fine.
The other day I decided I was spending too much money on pills that didn’t seem to affect me one way or another. I’m not going to confess how many tablets, capsules, and drops I was taking, but I will give you my new pared-down list, based on what seems to be what most gurus agree on:
- 1000 mg C
- 1200 mg Ca / 400 IU D
- 500 mg Omega-3 oils in cod liver oil
- 1000 IU D-3
- 400 IU E
- Multi-vitamin w/o iron
Here’s hoping I don’t come down with something horrible as a result!
