About SMARxT DIET.com™

Nutrition Science:

SMARxT DIET is a 12 week program which will guide you to lose excess fat (initially...up to 10 % of your current body weight) using our revolutionary mobile weight loss system. When you begin, SMARxT DIET will gather basic health background information and will virtually track and assess your current diet.

SMARxT DIET's software will scientifically analyze your nutritional status and then use this information to create a plan to help you achieve your desired weight loss goal. SMARxT DIET stands alone in it’s capacity to individualize your weight loss plan.

Meal Score^™ is a tool which has been developed by and is unique to SMARxT DIET. Each participant's nutritional data is distilled to a personalized “profile” which represents their specific dietary habits.

Grounded in advanced Nutrition Science, Meal Score^™ provides a personalized nutritional accounting system which allows you to make educated food choices within the framework of the SMARxT DIET program.

SMARxT DIET utilizes (USDA) nutrition data for any food you choose to eat. Meal Score^™ incorporates this nutritional information directly into SMARxT DIET's algorithms and allows you to make intelligent food choices “bite-by-bite” while you eat each meal. Meal Score^™ is dynamic by design. SMARxT DIET’s proprietary software monitors your progress and continually updates your plan as your metabolism morphs with your improving health. Uniquely personalized algorithms help you to make informed, healthy food choices to achieve your weight loss goals. SMARxT DIET encourages you to continue to eat your own favorite foods.

Integrating advanced nutrition science we help you make intelligent choices (on-the-fly) of which foods to eat and how much. With the help of SMARxT DIET you learn to control your own “informed” weight loss journey without being told by others WHAT to eat!

Biochemistry:

You were born with survival instincts deep within your brain's “satiety center”. The “Satiety Center” controls your hunger drive. By actively monitoring biochemical processes within your body, the satiety center lets you know when, what and how much to eat to maintain your health.

Unfortunately, this natural protective brain function becomes inactive when calorically over-stimulated. After years of chronic over- eating this area of your brain becomes resistant to your body's own natural biochemical cues. “Clean plate” parenting sets the stage for this eventuality early in life. Essentially, we learn to let social cues replace our own natural instincts when it comes to mealtime. But it doesn't have to stay that way.

SMARxT DIET uses first- of-it's-kind weight loss technology that is biochemically reasoned and medically sound to empower you to take charge of your health and lose those unwanted pounds. The SMARxT DIET program exploits HOW your body works. By understanding a few basic principles, you too can grasp what you need to know about healthy sustainable weight management.

1. Every person has a genetically programmed body chemistry (Biochemistry) which processes the food we eat. However, YOUR basal metabolic rate is absolutely unique to YOUR genetic makeup. Your body requires a unique amount of nutrition each day to maintain it's basic “resting” metabolism.

2. 3,500 calories equals 1 pound...Period! Beyond your “resting metabolism”, if you exercise and burn 3,500 calories more than you consume, you lose 1 pound. If you eat 3,500 calories more than you need, you gain 1 pound of stored fat. This fact is inescapable for each and every one of us regardless of age, genetics, or body type.

3. Carbohydrates and Protein macronutrients each provide 4 calories of energy per gram of consumed food and Fat provides 9 calories per gram. There are good (unprocessed, complex) carbs and bad (processed) simple sugars, as well as good (polyunsaturated) fats and bad (saturated trans) fats. The portion size of a meal necessary to meet daily nutritional needs will be more than twice as large if it contains mostly proteins and carbs than if it contains mostly fats. Amazingly; however, our body's biochemistry is CRAZY efficient at turning whatever we eat into exactly what it needs to thrive. Our bodies function on an organic, carbon-based economy which uses “energy currency”. This “carbon- based currency” provides the energy that is used by every cell for every bodily function.

Whether we eat carbohydrates, fats or protein, our bodies break these foodstuffs down and biochemically alter them into either carbon-based building blocks or utilizes them for energy. Furthermore, it doesn't matter whether we “over-eat” carbohydrates, fats or protein, our bodies will process the excess food we ingest ultimately into fat for “long-term” energy storage.

4. Every bodily expenditure of energy is called “cellular respiration”. Cellular respiration varies depending on cell type. Certain cells within the body use more energy than others. Cellular respiration can be accelerated by specific compounds known as metabolic stimulants. Select herbal supplements are known for having these properties.

5. Beyond the age of 21, the body's “basal metabolism” slows by about 1 % per year of age. That's an incredible 10 % less food required per decade of age to maintain a constant weight. The older we get, the less food we should be eating. There are exceptions to this rule however, in regards to one's unique “body density” index. Certain cell types like muscle weigh more than fat and use more energy than fat cells.

6. Each adipose (fat) cell in the body has a very stubborn fat storage memory. Our bodies crave to regain the fat stores depleted during dieting. SMARxT DIET is designed to counteract this tendency. Combining a balanced diet with this biochemically reasoned and medically sound process, SMARxT DIET helps maintain your target weight once attained. The methods of many “fad” diets help you lose weight quickly but leave you vulnerable to quickly regain that weight once their plan ends. The problem with those weight “yo-yo” plans is that the fat storage cells never get reprogrammed to remain depleted once the imposed dieting process ends. Those very same adipose cells immediately begin signaling your appetite to reestablish the pre- diet status quo and the pounds start packing back on. SMARxT DIET has innovated a creative process to counter this natural physiologic drive.

7. Severe restriction of one food type (carbohydrates for instance) is actually counterproductive when it comes to weight management. Your body is designed to store energy for survival. Fat stores are utilized when the calories needed by your body are lacking in your diet. Your body burns FAT in the “furnace of Muscle” in the “flame of Carbohydrate”. If there is not enough carbohydrate in your diet, your body will turn on itself and break down muscle mass to derive a substitute “energy currency” to fuel the “flame” for burning fat.

Diets which heavily restrict carbohydrates (Keto diets), do allow for quick weight loss but cause the loss of muscle mass which in turn forces the body's “furnace” size to contract ultimately slowing down fat metabolism. In so doing the body becomes less efficient at burning fat in the long run. This loss of muscle mass is the reason these plans which boast “quick weight loss” are hardly ever sustainable long term. It is considerably more “physiologic” to maintain BALANCE when it comes to food selection! As you progress through SMARxT DIET's 12 week program your body will begin to “crave” a more balanced nutrition.

SMARxT DIET's revolutionary “Bites Calculator” and Meal Score^™ technology maximize your body's biochemistry by using nutrition science and advanced digital algorithms to generate a uniquely personalized 12 week program just for you. All you have to do is follow the simple, SMARxT DIET prompts on your mobile device to lose the weight you desire and take back control of your nutrition life!

Herbal Tradition:

Herbal Tradition dates back thousands of years to Ancient times. It has deep roots in many of the world's most learned societies. The use of natural elements to promote health has existed in nearly every culture and has survived the test of time. Much work has transpired over the eons to better understand the interactions of herbal supplements to human health and well being.

Homeopathy and herbalism along with healthy dietary practices have bolstered the health and longevity of populations for centuries. Much of modern day, main stream medicine and pharmacology was cultivated from herbal tradition. Recently, the modern era has led us to the use of advanced laboratory- produced wonder drugs.

However, we need not abandon all that history has taught us. There are many paths to health and well being. Today there is a renewed interest in the naturopathic bounty of nature.

SMARxT DIET utilizes proprietary (algorithmic) dietary corrections to assist you to achieve considerable weight loss. However, no dietary portion control will enjoy success without persuading your “appetite” to cooperate with the plan. Any successful weight loss program will require a nutritional supplement that can aid this foundational necessity.

Exploiting the natural benefits of select herbs, SMARxT DIET has developed "Peak Performance Herbal" and the "Simply Thin Tea" options to empower you to achieve your weight loss goal. These nutritional supplements provide a vital component of SMARxT DIET's ingenuity.

Exercise Physiology:

Although diet is an important aspect of every weight loss journey, regular exercise will help you reach your goals more effectively. Severe caloric restriction causes the body to retreat into “starvation mode”; termed “metabolic adaptation”. This survival “instinct” causes a body- wide slowing of metabolic rate and is ineffective as a routine practice. However, carefully adjusted portion control coupled with increased exercise is a healthy and sustainable way to enhance weight management. During your 12 week SMARxT DIET program you will be virtually coached on regular “do-able” exercise. Closely tracking your physical activity provides a vital component of the SMARxT DIET program. The simple truth is that healthy weight loss boils down to caloric output that exceeds caloric input; in other words exercising more and eating less. SMARxT DIET EMBRACES this simplicity.

Metabolism refers to the sum total of all the biochemical processes at work in your body. Every cell expends energy at a genetically programmed rate. This energy utilization is termed “cellular respiration”. Your body has a carbon based economy and currency to carry out these metabolic processes. Each cell type varies in it's rate of metabolism; some cells have faster metabolic rates than others. Muscle cells, for instance, utilize considerably more energy than fat cells. These rates of metabolism may be modified by environmental factors. Certain dietary supplements as well as exercise are well known to significantly accelerate your metabolism and force your body to burn fat more efficiently.

Measuring metabolism can be done in various ways. “Basal metabolic rate” for instance is the rate of metabolism when your body is completely at rest. This occurs during sleep. “Basal metabolism” represents the very minimal energy expended by your body just to keep your vital organs alive. “Resting” metabolism represents the energy used during conscious rest. This can be thought of as the metabolic rate of a person binge- watching TV like a “couch potato”. Interestingly, these actually represents upwards of 75 % of our basic daily calorie use. Then there are the “activity” related metabolic expenditures of energy. “Non-exercise activity thermogenesis”, “Thermic effect of food”, and “Thermic effect of exercise” round out the measurable clinically relevant metabolic rates.

Non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT) is the energy burned as a result of you “moving normally through your day”. Thermic effect of food (TEF) of course represents the energy burned digesting a meal (approximately 10 % of the daily caloric expenditure). These metabolic rates can only be minimally altered by conscious effort but the “Thermic effect of exercise” (TEE) is a metabolic rate which is completely under your control. During exercise, cellular respiration increases as both aerobic and anaerobic metabolism.

Aerobic metabolism can be thought of as “pay-as-you- go” use of available circulating “energy currency”, whereas anaerobic metabolism is sort of like “pay-with-credit” energy consumption. Both utilize the available energy currency the same, but each taxes the body in different ways. In summary, the bodies energy utilization basically boils down to this simple axiom: Your body burns fat in the “furnace” of muscle in the “flame” of carbohydrate. Increasing your activity through exercise causes you to expend more calories while building your muscle mass through repetition. This increase in muscle mass enhances your overall “metabolic rate” and results in your body accelerating fat loss. By maintaining a balanced diet, your fat stores fall victim to this increased energy consumption. Exercising regularly and building muscle mass naturally expedites weight loss.

Most energy utilization formulas used today date back to research from the 1960's when NASA studied astronauts preparing for “space travel”. A better understanding of bodily function and energy consumption is however emerging. Not all energy expenditure calculations are equal. At SMARxT DIET we strive to harness the modern concepts of Exercise Physiology. These advancements are incorporated into our Intelligently designed weight loss algorithms. You benefit directly from this intelligent use of advanced Exercise Physiology through it's integration into SMARxT DIET's software.
