hey guys Dr Burke here in this video I want to talk about the biggest weight loss mistake okay so this is a little technique that I use okay I’m going to show you what I use sometimes here’s what you do if you want to find out the truth of something you want to research the most credible Authority driven website like the American diabetic Association or the American Heart Association okay or the American art arthritis Association or in this case since we’re talking about weight loss I’m going to take the Obesity Society this is the most scientifically based leading peer- review journals you know World round researchers and find out what they’re recommending and do the exact opposite why because they always get it wrong so let’s just take this website it’s called TR treating obesity it’s called uh let’s see treat obesity seriously. org okay and I put a link down below this is hilarious this is what they said on their website take the pledge I believe obesity isn’t just a problem it’s a disease well first of all it’s not a disease it’s not a disease you’re treating like a disease it’s a symptom of poor habits and the wrong thing okay it’s not like just a disease that spreads there’s a pre-step that you become obese okay it says right here here that warrants serious evidence-based treatments and this is what they did they switched the whole problem to a disease it’s very political nutritional and physical activity guidance okay so the first recommendation that they recommend out of all the recommendations is eat a diet with whole grains Okay and there’s other things too but whole grains is the first recommendation which is interesting okay check this out intense Behavioral Counseling drug therapy and surgery so they’re they’re recommending that healthy treatment right agree to learn more and help more I treat obesity seriously so what they are doing is they basically switched a symptom to a disease okay now let’s just take coal grains Okay because they’re recommending nutrient-dense Foods right makes sense sounds logical but why do they pick grains let’s take a look at bread for example let’s take whole wheat bread okay has no vitamin C it has no Vitamin D it has no vitamin A it has 1 milligram of vitamin E that’s not a lot okay it has less than between four and % of the B vitamins no B12 very low in B vitamins okay so the only thing that has of any significance is manganese and selenium it doesn’t have a complete amino acid profile it doesn’t have a complete fatty acid profile it has a lot of starch it’s one of the highest Foods on the glycemic index and the insulin index what does that mean it means that it turns into sugar and it increases insulin it makes you obese okay I promise you if you eat a lot of bread you’re going to get fat okay so here’s the tip okay find out what everyone is doing what they’re recommending especially what their the authorities are telling you to do and do the exact opposite okay I promise you will be very very successful all right so I’ll see you in the next video
