Once you understand the myths about
weight loss, you understand how your
body really works. The truth about
losing weight is simple – and the truth
can set you free.
Don't blame yourself for lack of
willpower or discipline... the American
food supply is mostly to blame. Your
grocery store is overflowing with
processed "foodless" foods and sugar
laden "lifeless" drinks. The fast food
industry offers you little more than
"doses" of high fat, super sized meals,
and all-you-can-eat buffets containing
more calories than your body could
possibly need.
The
average American has stretched their stomach to 2 or 3 times
it's normal size
and now has to eat more to feel full.
PROCESSED FOODS AND WEIGHT LOSS
The processed foods have
caused your body's nutritional system to
become clogged, confused, and locked
into fat storing mode. If you're
like most people, you've tried it all
but nothing seems to work. Now it's time
to find out why.
Most people who struggle
with an overweight condition blame
themselves for lack of discipline or
willpower. While good eating habits are
important, the real problem has to do
with a much larger issue, our food
supply.
Perhaps you can now understand your
challenge in a different light. Our
processed and packaged food supply is
inundated with artificial chemicals that
give the junk foods flavor, color,
sweetness, and a long shelf life. Over
time, these chemicals build up in your
body causing your body's nutritional
system to become confused, clogged, and
locked into fat-storing mode.
The first step to
healthy weight loss is cleansing your
body of these chemicals and
understanding your body's need for
fruits, veggies, grains, nuts, seeds,
and berries - otherwise known as
whole foods. We'll
tell you more about our foods in a
moment. First we need to untangle a few
of the "myths" and misunderstandings
about losing weight - let's start with
topic of skipping meals.
MYTH # 1
"Skipping Meals will help me lose
weight"
One of the biggest
mistakes you can make while trying to
lose weight is skipping meals. When you
skip a meal, your body "thinks" that you
are starving. This is a built-in
survival system that all of us have.
When your body "thinks" that you are
starving, it makes two changes to
protect you from starving.
First, it slows
your metabolism causing your energy
levels to drop. You slow down
and your body burns less fat. Secondly,
the meal you eat after you skip a
meal will be converted almost entirely
to fat and stored to protect you
from starving. If you skip breakfast,
almost all of what you eat for lunch is
converted to fat. You think you’re
taking in less food but in reality
you’re causing your body to store more
fat.
The solution is to eat
small meals regularly throughout the day
fueling your body with whole foods and
water, beginning with BREAKFAST. Your
metabolism will increase, your stamina
and endurance will increase, your
appetite will decrease, and your body
will produce less fat while it burns
more! Your stomach will shrink back to
it's normal size and a normal amount of
food will leave you feeling completely
full and satisfied. Learn to “listen” to
your body – it knows what’s best for
you. Eat whole foods and drink water
when you’re hungry and stop eating once
you’re full. Then repeat as necessary
throughout the day. It really is that
simple!
MYTH # 2
THE EXERCISE MYTH
To create energy your body burns fat or
it burns blood sugar (glucose), but it
can’t burn them both at the same time.
When you’re not doing anything strenuous
your body burns fat. When you exercise
into the aerobic zone (70% or more of
your max. heart rate) your body will
stop burning fat and instantly begin to
burn blood sugar – because blood sugar
can be converted to energy much faster
than fat.
Aerobic exercise will
burn fat – but only
after you’ve depleted your available
blood sugar – which, for most
people takes at least 20 to 30 minutes
of being in the aerobic zone. Countless
overweight individuals are on the
exercise bikes and tread mills, pedaling
and running, until their heart almost
pounds out of their chest but they are
not burning fat. The first 30 minutes
only burns off blood sugar – after that
you’d need another 30 minutes to burn
any fat. Exercise equipment sales are on
the rise and so is obesity – does that
make sense to you?
The truth is
that WALKING is the best type of
exercise for healthy weight loss.
Walking burns fat. Walking also builds
lean muscle which “feeds” on the body’s
excess fat. Walk daily, eat whole foods,
drink plenty of water, and turn your
body into a healthy, energetic, fat
burning machine that incinerates fat 24
hours a day! Once you move closer to
your ideal weight, then adding some
aeorbic exercise is a great way to
maintain your weight and support your
heart, lungs, muscles, and circulatory
system.
Now that you understand
the real problem and know how to avoid
the big mistakes - let's learn how your
body reacts to fad diets like the
low-fat, and low-carb plans.
MYTH # 3
THE
"LOW-FAT" MYTH
Eating a low fat diet can help you lose
weight – but that’s only HALF the story.
Most people trying to lower their fat
intake go to the store looking for
processed foods whose labels show
low-fat or no fat. There are, processed
fat-free chips, processed fat free
cookies, processed fat free ice cream
and the list goes on and on. Let’s face
it – sales of low fat processed foods
have “skyrocketed” over the last 20
years and so has the number of Americans
who are overweight.
The problem is that processed fat-free,
or low-fat, foods contain no real
nutrition and are very low in fiber. As
you eat these foods the acid in your
stomach begins to dissolve the foods and
digest them very quickly so you must eat
more to feel full. On top of that,
processed low-fat foods are loaded with
MSG which lowers your blood sugar levels
making you hungry an hour later. The
result is that you eat more of the
processed foods, you take in excess
empty calories, and your body stores the
extra calories as fat.
Healthy fats
are not the enemy. Fat
soluble vitamins such as A, D, E, &
K are worthless without fat. Whole
foods like nuts and seeds contain
the essential fatty acids that your
body needs to be healthy.
Nutritional
fiber is only found in fruits,
vegetables, nuts, seeds, grains, and
berries. The acid in your stomach
will not completely dissolve these
natural fibers, so eating them fills
you up faster and keeps you full
longer. Processed foods contain
large amounts of Omega-6 oils which
interfere with the body's use of the
healthy Omega-3 oils.
The
fats to avoid are
trans fats, partially hydrogenated
oils, and excess amounts of animal
fats.
These are the fats found
in fast foods, junk foods, and
processed foods.
MYTH # 4
THE LOW-CARB
MYTH
Most people who attempt the low carb
diet buy a book but don’t read it
carefully. They skip right to the
section that tells them all of the foods
they CAN eat like steaks, butter,
mayonnaise, seafood, poultry, cheese –
they are pleasantly surprised – so they
start eating. Most seem to miss
the paragraph that says to eat less than
1600 calories a day.
Your brain alone needs
130 grams of carbohydrates per day to
function properly. When you eliminate
carbs from your diet, you force your
body into a state of ketosis. This is
what diabetics suffer from. Your body’s
built-in survival system knows you need
carbs so it responds with cravings so
intense that hardly anyone can stand up
to them. One bite of something sweet
contains enough carbs to knock your body
out of ketosis within 10 minutes, then
it takes two or three days to get back
into ketosis. Two bites a week and
you’ll never get anywhere.
Think about it:
-
Low carb diets
put enormous stress on the
kidneys and increase the risk of
liver disorders, gout, coronary
heart disease, stroke, and
several types of cancer.

Feedback from
Rodney Scott - Kingston Springs, TN
'I started my
Tri-Decathlon after witnessing its
impact on a colleague at work who I had
daily contact with during his 13 day
event. I am a 51 year old male who is
relatively active. I play golf and
coach one of my son’s basketball teams.
I have always been a competitive person
and played various sports throughout my
years. Now at 51, I have experienced
joint pain since my early twenties as a
result of wear & tear on my knees from
football and basketball. I also used to
drink 5 to 6 Diet Mountain Dews every
day. I only mention these things to
give you some idea of where I was before
starting the program. I am 62" tall and
weighed 238 lbs. prior to starting the
Tri-Decathlon. I had never cleansed my
body and many can attest to my love to
eat all types of food and large
quantities as well. My only intent when
starting the plan was to cleanse, or
detox, my system, but what happened
along with the way is totally amazing.
I have totally transformed my whole
outlook on my life and my eating and
drinking habits in regard to living a
healthy and satisfying life.
I began to notice a rapid change in my
body as well as my mental and physical
health. I used to swallow 4 pain pills
a day for my joint pain. The pain
virtually vanished during my
Tri-Decathlon and I have now stopped
taking any pain medication! I no longer
drink the costly and caffeine laden
Mountain Dews. I went from 238 lbs to
217 lbs using the Tri-Decathlon and
whole food concepts, and I have been
able to maintain this weight rather
easily. Now my 30 minute daily walks
have turned into 40 minutes and I’ve
gone from 2.5 miles to 3.5 miles in only
10 more minutes a day. I walk rain or
shine with my little 6lb. dog, Tibet.
People in my community often stop and
ask how I’ve been able to make such a
sudden change in lifestyle.
But the one thing that had the greatest
impact on me being able to make this
change to eating better - with quality
rather than quantity being my focus -
was that one evening after work when my
13yr old son made the comment “Dad,
since you have been on this program, you
aren’t as grumpy as you normally are".
This hit me right in my heart and made
me realize the eating habits that I
changed were having a dramatic, positive
impact on my life and my loved ones.
I could go on and on about better sleep,
less colds and illness, etc. I truly
believe that by going thru the 13-Day
Tri-Decathlon I have enriched my total
life from the inside out."
Feedback from Vera Patterson - Antioch, TN
“ Life is full of
surprises! I began the 13 day
Tri-Decathlon only as a means of losing
a few pounds. I told myself I'd be more
than satisfied if I lost 8 pounds. I
wasn't concerned too much about the
"other health benefits" that my friend
told me I'd experience. I felt that I
was already eating properly (more or
less), and I was as healthy as I'd
probably ever be.
As I read the instructions that came
with the Tri-Decathlon, I was a little
taken aback when I realized that for the
next 13 days I would not be eating any
dairy foods, cooked veggies and fruits,
meats, chicken or fish, sweets or
deserts. Oh well. It would only be for
13 days.. and I could supplement with
fresh salads and fruits, so how bad
could it be?
Let me back up a little.... I was
75 years old in November. Along with
age came the all the aches and pains
that those of us lucky enough to have
lived into old age fully expected
because we have been told that all those
aches and pains were perfectly NORMAL as
we aged. Therefore I had accepted that
the chronic pain in my left hip
(diagnosed years ago by a "specialist"
as bursitis) was how things were going
to be for me.. live with pain, grin and
bear it. After all, I'm OLD! What else
could I expect?
What I didn't expect was that into my
4th day of the Tri-Decathlon the pain in
my left hip that I had lived with for
years would suddenly and inexplicitly
vanish completely! Not a twinge! Over
the years the pain had occasionally
become so severe I had to have steroid
shots and I even was prescribed Bextra
on occasion. I almost routinely took
Aleve on days when the aches became
almost intolerable. As for walking.
well, walking with a limp had become my
normal gait.
The benefits continued. I have had
problems with my digestive system for
many years. The sudden improvement there
was remarkable also. I was sleeping
better. I felt more energized than I
had in years. Only someone in my age
category who has had to come to terms
with feeling tired day after day would
appreciate how great it was to suddenly
feel the years fall away!
By the time I was coming down the home
stretch, I knew that this was not a
fluke, coincidence or a temporary
reprieve from the problems of aging. I
wasn't limping, even when walking
distances. I was continuing to feel
great day after day..! Wow!
The biggest change in my life has been
that I now know can't afford to risk
going back to my "other life" - My
doctor had told me for years that I was
lactose intolerant. Did I stop eating
dairy? Of course not. When beginning
the WFF program I did so because I had
to in order to do it correctly. It
taught me a valuable lesson. My body
will rebel when I continue to force foods it neither can tolerate nor
wants.
Using the Whole Food Farmacy as the
basis for making changes in my diet my
health has improved to a degree I didn't
ever think possible considering my age.
Three months later my hip is still
pain-free. This after about 10 years of
living with chronic pain! Again, WOW!”

“During the first six
months of 2005, I was under a spell of
depression to the point of suicide. I
was chronically fatigued, sleeping 12 to
16 hours a day, drinking heavily, eating
unhealthy foods, and smoking tobacco.
After months of this self destructive
cycle, I awoke one morning and decided
that I was either going to severely hurt
myself or make a decision to live. I
chose the latter. One week later, while
having dinner with a friend, he passed
the “Stardust Sea Salt” and curiosity
led to a discussion about The Wholefood
Farmacy products. Soon after, I ordered
a Tri-Decathlon. It was great. A month
later and I was feeling better than I
have ever felt in my life! I have so
much energy, my mind is clear, and my
skin glows! I had tried so many diets,
fasts, and spiritual retreats before in
the past and nothing really worked. The
WFF Tri-Decathlon worked for me. I am
also using more of the other products.
Thank you Wholefood Farmacy for helping
me to reclaim my life!”

“It is going very
well! You probably heard that my big
surprise and excitement was that Tara
decided to do the Tri-D with me. Having
her join me in living within good
nutritional practice is a major
victory. I lost 10-12 pounds, hovering
now between 178 and 180, so there is
still more to do. Tara lost about 9
pounds. Monday was our last day. I
thought we would seriously binge when it
was over. To my surprise, even faced
with some of the foods I thought I would
want at the end of 13 days, I have
mostly been attracted to the healthier
more whole choices. I also don't
require as much food. Wow! The first
day off, I had Phi + for breakfast, a
salad for lunch, and a light sandwich
for supper. Oh, by the way, we didn't
eat all the food provided in the tri-d.
Food was left over. Amazing!
The thing I most dreaded about this was
drinking the "doctored" water. I just
knew I would not like it. To my
surprise, this was an exciting
discovery. I did not need to add any
fruit juice. I drank it straight.
Regular, even bottled, water doesn't
taste good now. I also noticed your
body actually absorbs this and you don't
pee it all out. It's like Gatorade
without all of the sugar and junk.
Wow!
I just bought a new
pair of jeans. My old ones are
even bigger than they were before. I am
now 15 pounds away from my weight when
Tara and I married. I'm pretty
excited! That will put me at the top of
the weight range (AMA) for my height.
After that, I shoot for the bottom of
the range 145. I'm planning on reaching
165 by January. Thanks for letting me
know about this. It has truly made
doing the right thing a reality!”

“Yes, I’m very happy
to share, since I’m feeling better than
I have in years, and so quickly I have
been transformed by these fantastically
flavorful foods.
I just turned 50, and had been
experiencing many of the physical and
mental symptoms associated with mid-life
crisis, along with the advent of peri-menopausal
symptoms. For the last 18 years I’ve
enjoyed a satisfying career in the
healing arts, but, best know for my
marathon style, deep tissue body work.
Wonderful stuff, but, it was getting
harder to keep up. I was beginning to
realize that, I’d soon need to consider
developing alternate career strategies
that would potentially allow healing for
my physical distress of the last 5
years. I was emotionally struggling
with the many decisions and dilemmas
becoming apparent. Not only was my
blossoming weight becoming an issue for
work, sense of self-esteem, but also, I
was becoming plagued with the severe
pain of tendonitis, arthritis, also, a
developing sleep disorder, IBS, Candida,
eczema, food allergies, adult ADHD focus
issues, depression, anxiety attacks,
floundering libido, even the possibility
that the fatigue could be related to
Fibromyalgia, or chronic fatigue
ensuing. What a mess.
Needless to say, as tough as I am known
to be, my response to clients of, “I’m
ok” approach, was making me feel pretty
quietly desperate. With all of these
unpleasant things cropping up you would
think that I lacked awareness on self
care, this was not the case. I have
always been a promoter of healthy
eating, exercise, clean country living,
etc. But, here I was falling apart at
the seams, and wondering why. Well, I
tried every health fad, and every
classical health promoting modality
imaginable, diligently trying to keep
the peace within my aging, crumbling
self. But, it wasn’t relief enough,
something was lacking.
Out of the blue, I rediscovered a flyer
about The Wholefood Farmacy’s Phi Plus.
Unfortunately, the flyer got filed
(which means misplaced, almost
permanently, in my office). So imagine
my delight, to find this reminder a
couple of months ago while editing thru
the archives. It was like a light going
on. I spent hours pouring through the
volumes of pertinent info on The
Wholefood Farmacy website, just hungry
(pardon the pun) for the positive
messages there for me. I was hooked as
I read the home page mission statement,
so by the time I got into the
philosophy, simple business concept, I
was biting at the bit to sign up....I
just knew this was for me somehow! It
all made complete sense.
I went for the gusto with the
Tri-decathlon Deluxe, several of the
samplers, and of course, I had to try
that long life mushroom infused coffee.
Gee wiz, what could be better than
that, than to allow a healthier option
for my favorite addiction, and feel ok
about it?
I am happy to report I had epiphany
after epiphany, and an overall healing
like never before. And, how simple, and
pleasurable the experience had revealed
within days, such relief from pain, and
other disagreeable maladies on all
levels. Imagine my surprise and
overwhelming sense of joy, at the
rejuvenation not just of my body, but,
my spirit and mind as well, all of me
was suddenly undergoing renewal and
refreshment. The refreshed ability to
intently focus while calmly
multi-tasking again, or vividly
retaining dreams from an excellent
nights sleep, without waking to
intestinal distress, or a sense of dread
to start the day, joints that move
freely without pain, fluidity and grace
returning. Wow! A miracle, it seems.
I have lost 15 pounds and feel great.
Now that I know how easy that is, with
these tasty foods, I intend to lose at
least 15 pounds more. I can actually go
do my workout now, and hike without
pain. What’s more, passion on all
levels is back with enthusiasm.
It has been a total pleasure sharing all
of this with friends, and how great that
they are interested in knowing more, and
signing up. It’s only been 2 months and
I have several wonderful people in my
down-line, and bonus checks to deposit.
It’s a pretty amazing opportunity it
turns out as well. Imagine my glee and
satisfaction of remedying my health,
wealth, and overall well being, all at
once. Thank you Wholefood Farmacy!”

“Before being
introduced to Wholefood Farmacy, I
was always feeling tired, ill and
un-motivated about many things. I was
primarily a meat and bread and desert
monster kind of person. After only 13
days on the Tri-Decathlon Wellness
Program, my mind became sharp and clear
and my energy level went through the

"For most of my adult
life I have been battling
Hypoglycemia. I usually get extremely
tired and un-motivated for a few
hours after a big lunch. In order for
me to function again, I usually cap off
my meal with a piece of chocolate. This
gives me a temporary fix to get my blood
sugar up again. Once I became exposed
to Wholefood Farmacy, I began replacing
my chocolate fix with Phi Plus. To my
amazement, Phi Plus completely satisfied
my sweet tooth cravings for chocolate
and deserts! It is believed that if you
give your body what it needs
nutritionally, you will not hunger for
processed junk food and sweets. As God
is my witness, I'm here to tell you that
the Wholefood Farmacy product line is
the REAL DEAL! It completely satisfies
your body, mind and spirit. After all,
God has commanded us to keep the Body

and running. We'll post when they do!
