How Immunotec “F.I.T.T.”s in
puzzle
You’ll hear the same opinion from both sides of the fence; those people trying to lose weight and those
who counsel on weight-loss – no single strategy is effective for everyone.

S Some people swear by cutting out carbs, some by exercise

and some others have discovered a “magical pill”. These
people are all sincere about their experiences, but when
you use the same approach, it doesn’t work! In fact, any
responsible health professional will tell you that the vast
majority of people need a combination of strategies.
Weight is a function of many factors – eating calories,
burning calories, your genetics, and more. What works for
one person may not work for another.
Most conservative advice combines a mixture of caloric
restriction and exercise. Sounds simple and makes sense,
but in reality is not that easy to stick to. Cutting-edge
researchers are looking at determining an individuals’
genetic make-up to tailor a unique approach for each
individual, and this will happen as the human genome
project develops over the next few decades. Currently, the
most effective strategy uses a multi-directional approach,
taking full advantage of the evolving science of weight
control. This is the foundation of the F.I.T.T. system, a
system that will stack the odds in your favor to both take
weight off, and even more importantly, keep it off!
F.I.T.T. – Future In Thinning Technology
F.I.T.T. solves the weight-loss puzzle using six pieces,
all designed to address different aspects that may be
contributing to weight control.

Shake Mix
The F.I.T.T shake mix was developed according to Health Canada’s
strict standards that define the essential components that are
mandatory for a healthy and complete meal substitute. All
three macronutrients – proteins, carbohydrates and lipids are
contained at optimal levels. Low in calories, you’ll find this a tasty
and nutritious way to fill up!
Immunocal
Immunocal is most often promoted as a supplement to raise
glutathione. Glutathione is effectively “food” for the immune
system. Many individuals find a “dip” in their ability to fight
off threats to their immune system when dieting or making
changes to their usual lifestyle. Immunocal offers you patented
and clinically proven protection. Glutathione is also your “master
antioxidant”, antioxidants being so important in so many
aspects of your health. Glutathione is also one of the most
critical substances in your liver for cellular detoxification. Many
schools of thought believe that toxic load and pollution is a
major contributor to weight gain. Finally, one often-overlooked
aspect of Immunocal is its “BV”. BV stands for “biological value”
– a measurement of how important any edible protein is to your
body. It is a reflection of how much of the protein is made up of
essential amino acids. Immunocal contains all the essential amino
acids and has the highest BV of any supplement available. Avoid
the potential amino acid deficiencies often encountered in dieting!
Pure Milk Calcium
Of all the supplements that may be recommended by a doctor,
calcium is the most common. The health benefits of calcium are
well documented. The health benefits of milk calcium go even
further. Researchers have studied the effect of dairy calcium
against calcium derived from other sources. Milk calcium has
been shown to be much more effective in controlling weight.
What’s more, Immunotec’s Pure Milk Calcium is much more than
just calcium – it is a milk mineral complex. Immunotec’s Pure Milk
Calcium also contains magnesium, phosphate, potassium, zinc
and copper, in amounts similar to that found in human bone. Milk
calcium is the way nature intended us to get our calcium!
F.I.T.T.’ing the Pieces Together
To solve a puzzle, all the pieces need to be there. Immunocal’s
F.I.T.T. system addresses the solution using a safe and
scientific multi-faceted approach to help your success.
“This is the foundation of the F.I.T.T. system, a system
that will stack the odds in your favor to both take
weight off, and even more importantly, keep it off!”
Thermal Action
Many people need that extra boost in energy to face their day, do
their exercise and maintain an active lifestyle. Thermal Action will
supply you with that boost and will also have some other direct
effects on your ability to lose weight. The components; guarana
(an Amazonian shrub), catechins (from green tea), and chromium
(chromium picolinate), combine to raise your metabolism, “burn”
fat, and have even been studied in cholesterol control, diabetes
and metabolic syndrome. Put science on your side!
PNT 200
An often-unrecognized contributor to weight gain is stress. Not
only does stress disrupt our sleep and raise our blood pressure,
it also leads us to bad lifestyle choices like impulsive snacking
and choosing high-calorie “comfort foods” or alcohol. One recent
finding is that excessive stress can lead to over-production
of a stress hormone called “cortisol”. Cortisol performs many
necessary functions but if levels are too high it can lead to fat
production. PNT 200 has been demonstrated to lower excess
cortisol levels in human clinical trials. Even more recently, a link
has been discovered between sleep-deprivation and obesity.
Given that over 40% of North Americans may be sleep deprived,
PNT 200 addresses this problem as well.
