Counteract the Fat: A groundbreaking book based on scientific
studies.
CHICAGO, May 1, 2024
/PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Junk food is so loved by many. What is not
loved are the associated medical conditions and weight gain. Over
time, scientific studies have been conducted at various
institutions across America and abroad. These studies have
indicated that fiber and antioxidants can mitigate the health risks
associated with junk food by counteracting the physiological
effects of high-fat and other junk food, thus offering a
cutting-edge approach to maintaining better health without
deprivation. This does not mean that ๐ข๐๐๐๐๐๐ก๐๐ consumption of junk
food without consequences is now possible. What it does mean is
greater freedom, less restriction and a wider variety of food
choices for ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ก๐ฉ๐ฆ individuals. These groundbreaking discoveries
are uncovered in the book ๐ถ๐๐ข๐๐ก๐๐๐๐๐ก ๐ก๐ฉ๐ ๐น๐๐ก: ๐ป๐๐ค ๐๐๐๐๐๐ก๐๐๐๐

๐๐ ๐ก๐๐๐๐ก๐๐๐ (ISBN: 979-8398923704). The
following concepts are discussed in the book:
- High-fat foods produce cholesterol-related acids that can clog
arteries and raise cholesterol levels over time โ opening the door
to heart disease. Scientists have identified a special type of
soluble fiber known as ๐๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ข๐๐๐๐ that can counteract that
effect. According to scientists, beta glucans can reduce the
absorption of dietary fats and promote cholesterol control all by
itself, even in a diet containing moderate amounts of saturated fat
and cholesterol. Scientists have reported that beta glucans nab
cholesterol-related acids produced by dietary fats โ ushering them
out of the body before they can ravage the heart and arteries and
thus lowering the risk of heart disease.
- The excess calories in high-fat foods are absorbed by the body
and stored as fat, and can cause weight gain over time โ opening
the door to obesity. Both fiber and antioxidants can counteract
that effect. Scientists have reported that fiber helps to
promote weight control by reducing the amount of calories the body
absorbs. It does that by nabbing calories โ speeding them through
the digestive system before they can be absorbed and stored as fat.
Scientists have also reported that antioxidants help to promote
weight control by providing the body with the energy that it needs
to burn fat more efficiently. These actions make it more difficult
to gain weight and thus lower the risk of obesity.
- Deep-fried fatty foods can form ๐๐ฅ๐๐๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ that can damage
cells and the lining of the blood vessels over time โ opening the
door to heart disease. Antioxidants can counteract that effect.
Scientists have reported that antioxidants fight heart disease
by inhibiting the formation of oxidized lipids โ thus inhibiting
damage to cells and to the lining of the blood vessels and thus
lowering the risk of heart disease.
- Hot dogs, bacon, sausages and other tasty processed meats
contain ๐๐๐ก๐๐๐ก๐๐ . Over time, nitrites can open the door to
pancreatic cancer by breaking down and converting to ๐๐๐ก๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ .
Vitamins ๐ถ, ๐ธ and ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ข๐ can counteract that effect. Scientists
have reported that vitamins C, E and selenium fight pancreatic
cancer by neutralizing nitrites โ thus inhibiting the formation of
nitrosamines over time and helping to immobilize the cancer-causing
process.
- Many junk food favorites are high in ๐ ๐๐๐๐ข๐. Excess sodium can
open the door to high blood pressure by causing the body to retain
water, which increases the volume of blood. Both ๐๐๐ก๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ข๐ and
๐๐๐๐๐๐ข๐ can counteract that effect. Scientists have reported
that potassium fights high blood pressure by flushing excess
sodium out of the body. Scientists have also reported that calcium
fights high blood pressure by acting as a natural diuretic to help
kidneys release excess sodium and water. These actions help to
maintain healthy sodium levels โ thus reducing the risk of high
blood pressure.
- Many animal protein food favorites such as steaks, hamburgers
and ribs can open the door to heart disease and stroke by
increasing the body's production of a potentially dangerous amino
acid known as ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐๐ฆ๐ ๐ก๐๐๐๐. Homocysteine is a by-product of
protein metabolism. Excessive amounts of homocysteine in the
bloodstream opens the door to heart disease and stroke by injuring
blood vessels, which leads to the buildup of plaque (scar tissue)
and narrowing of the carotid arteries. The B vitamins ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐,
๐ฃ๐๐ก๐๐๐๐ ๐ตโ and ๐ฃ๐๐ก๐๐๐๐ ๐ตโโ can counteract that effect. Scientists
have reported that folic acid, vitamin Bโ and vitamin Bโโ fight
heart disease and stroke by breaking down excess homocysteine into
harmless compounds, thus inhibiting injury to blood vessels and
narrowing of the carotid arteries.
- High-fat foods can open the door to breast and other
hormone-related cancers by encouraging the growth of certain
intestinal bacteria that have the ability to convert bile acids
into estrogen-like hormones โ which in large amounts can trigger
the growth of tumors in the breasts and ovaries. The growth of
certain intestinal bacteria encouraged by high-fat foods also
causes the body to reabsorb circulating estrogen โ rather than
excrete it. As a result, blood levels of estrogen become elevated
over time. Elevated levels of estrogen can trigger the growth of
tumors in the breasts and ovaries. A class of compounds identified
by scientists as ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ฃ๐๐๐๐ has the ability to counteract that
effect. Scientists have reported that isoflavones fight breast
and other hormone-related cancers by helping to promote proper
levels of estrogen. Scientists say that isoflavones are very
similar to natural estrogen. They help to promote proper levels of
estrogen by pretending to be natural estrogen and nabbing the
body's estrogen receptors, leaving the ๐๐๐๐ estrogen with nowhere
else to go but out of the body โ thus helping to immobilize the
cancer-causing process.

DรฉShond L Barnes discovered the ๐ถ๐๐ข๐๐ก๐๐๐๐๐ก ๐ก๐ฉ๐
๐น๐๐ก concept in the late 1990's by poring through medical journals
and health, nutrition and diet publications for nearly a year, and
has practiced the revolutionary ๐ถ๐๐ข๐๐ก๐๐๐๐๐ก ๐ก๐ฉ๐ ๐น๐๐ก methodology ever
since โ with incredible success. By examining nutrition facts
labels, calculating the total amount of fiber, antioxidants and
other essential nutrients provided by health foods, and consuming a
daily diet containing an average of 100+% of the Recommended Daily
Allowance for fiber, antioxidants and other essential nutrients โ
Barnes has maintained excellent blood cholesterol, blood sugar,
blood pressure and body weight over the decades without sacrificing
unhealthy junk food favorites. This has inspired Barnes to share
this information with the rest of the world by publishing
๐ถ๐๐ข๐๐ก๐๐๐๐๐ก ๐ก๐ฉ๐ ๐น๐๐ก more than two decades later. Barnes also teaches
๐ถ๐๐ข๐๐ก๐๐๐๐๐ก ๐ก๐ฉ๐ ๐น๐๐ก seminars at local Y.M.C.A.'s and public
libraries in northern Illinois to
spread the word about the ๐ถ๐๐ข๐๐ก๐๐๐๐๐ก ๐ก๐ฉ๐ ๐น๐๐ก methodology. Barnes
lives and writes in northern Illinois.
