There are many different strategies out there today for losing weight - it can be so confusing for people who struggle with their weight.

Low carb or low fat?

Some plans say to cut a meal or two out, but others say eat more meals daily.

Take supplements, or do it with just diet and exercise?

Even the type of exercise people suggest varies.

Some of the latest research is showing that there may be other factors at play, besides just the above areas of which foods to eat, how to exercise, and good supplements to take.

We now know that some of the foods we eat are resulting in digestive problems that make Weight Loss a bigger problem than simply changing our diet a bit, or exercising more. Research released recently by Dr. Suzanne Gudakunst supports this.

Plaque and parasites in the stomach and colon are known to make Weight Loss a much bigger issue for some people, even if they are exercising more and eating less.

These digestive issues can be addressed, making diet and exercise changes much more effective for some people.

I know everyone is looking for the magic pill, but if it existed we’d all be using it!

Food choices are of course still important, such as keeping the amount of certain carbohydrates in our diet to a reasonable level.

I think everyone agrees that exercise is still important, too.

These exercise and food choices won’t be effective, however, till we deal with any digestive issues as discussed above.
