Ground Breaking New Doctor Designed Weight Loss Plan Unveiled


Internationally acclaimed diet doctor, Dr. John Salerno, and award winning cookbook author, Linda West Eckhardt, introduce The Silver Cloud Diet  e-book, a 180 page guide to a diet made up of wholesome, whole unprocessed foods with plenty of saturated fats that will reduce your weight, improve your cholestrol levels and lower your blood sugars. 


Building on the good work of Dr. Robert Atkins,  www,SilverCloudDiet.com proves you can lose weight, feel better, and live longer without "diet" food or starvation. Dr. Salerno's many patients in New York, Florida, Japan, and Brazil prove that the old ways are the best ways.  Eat Real Food. That's the mantra of the Silver Cloud.

THE TOP TEN QUESTIONS ABOUT THE SILVER CLOUD DIET

Excerpt from The Silver Cloud Diet e-book, available at www.silverclouddiet.com

1. How is this diet different from Atkins?

When Dr. Atkins developed his protocols some 30 years ago, the food supply was less degraded than it is now.

Unfortunately, due to the increase in processed foods, junk foods, and our degraded farm land, the Atkins protocols just won’t work any more. 

You have to take a more proactive stand to preserve your health and weight.  I find with my patients, that their body needs a period of rest from the assaults of the Western Diet and so a short period,  say 2 weeks, of complete relief from carbohydrates of all types will make it possible to change your life, reset your body clock, and put you on the road to health and long life.

2. What can I eat in a restaurant?

This is the good news.  Even in the Detox phase of the diet, you can eat out.  Take the burger out of the bread, skip the vegetables and enjoy it.  Eat grilled fish, roast chicken, pot roast, tenderloin of pork, shrimp, scallops, pates, any of these work fine in a restaurant at any phase of the diet.

3. Road food office food, eating on the run?

Plan ahead.  Hard boil eggs and keep them on hand for car trips, office snacks,  lunches on the run.  Lay in a supply of jerky, canned salmon,  nuts of any kind, string cheese.  Any of these nutrient dense foods will keep you satisfied and on track.

4. I’m worried about not eating vegetables in the detox phase.

The notion that we have to eat vegetables every day is new.  Even as recently as a hundred years ago, mankind only had vegetables during the growing season.  To go for a short period with no vegetables is natural and healthy and actually rests your body. 

5. Where can I find appropriate food?

Man has been on this earth for thousands of years.  We’ve only eaten the same foods 12 months a year for about 100.  Don’t worry. Give your body a rest.  The Detox will take 5 to 15 pounds off, reduce your waist size, and more importantly rest your body.

6. Will I ever be able to eat a piece of cake?

We recommend buying food as “close to the ground” as possible.  In the grocery store, choose organic produce, eggs, and dairy.  At the farmer’s market, ask the vendors how they grow their crops.  Find a local provider for meats and fish if possible. As your health becomes more vigorous, and you lose eight, and increase your activities, beginning with your 10,000 steps a day, yes, you will be able to eat more carbohydrates.

7. I don’t want to prepare a separate meal for myself.  What about my partner?  My children?

Please don’t prepare a special meal for yourself.  Everyone in the family should be eating a broad and varied diet of unprocessed foods.  Your partner and children may kick about it, but if you retain a positive attitude, they will come on board and every one of you will be healthier.

8. How much weight can I expect to lose?

I have patients who are thrilled to lose 20 pounds.  I have patients who have lost upwards of 200 pounds with no pills and no pain, just learning to love a broad and varied diet of unprocessed foods. 

9. When do I go off the diet?

You are making decisions to take care of your body by eating great food for the rest of your life.  And if you ever feel your weight creeping back up, give yourself a week of the Silver Cloud Detox Full Fat Fast and you’ll reset your clock and be back on target in no time. And remember that saturated fat is the most nutrient dense food there is.  It is the lubricant of your joints, and the element that makes your brain work best.  It keeps your hair shiny and your skin unwrinkled. 

10. Why should I eat saturated fat?

Once you remove the unhealthy processed carbohydrates from your diet, you don’t need to worry about saturated fat. And perhaps the best part of eating plenty of saturated fat is that it is nature’s appetite suppressant. Pay attention to your body and your body will take care of you. Cutting edge science by Mary Enig, PhD. And Sally Fallon reveals the hard facts about saturated fats and their health benefits.  Turn to the back of the book and read their ground-breaking study. We heartily recommend their book, Nourishing Traditions, a veritable encyclopedia of great food and food information.
