Skinny Tomato With Phase 2 carb blocker, Soluble Dietary Fiber, De-oiled Lecithin, and Guar More than a dietary supplement, Skinny Tomato™ is a delicious, low calorie functional food designed to provide nutritional support as a meal replacement (50 calories) while you lose weight or to help maintain your healthy weight. Just one serving of Skinny Tomato™ contains the equivalent of two organic tomatoes and a patented non-GMO natural bean extract (Phaseolus vulgaris) which may reduce the enzymatic digestion of dietary starches, one of the the leading causes of weight gain.

Ingredients in Skinny Tomato:

Organic Tomatoes
One serving (1 heaping Tbl.) of Skinny Tomato™ delivers the equivalent of two fresh whole organic tomatoes. Low temperature drying help preserve the color and taste of red tomatoes. Through the special drying process one tomato is dried into approximately 4.4 ounces of powder concentrating the lycopene and other nutrients.

Phase 2 Bean Extract
Each serving contains 1.5 grams of Phase 2, a starch neutralizing carb controlling extract that has been shown to inhibit the digestive enzyme alpha-amylase. It is this enzyme that is responsible for breaking down starch to simple sugars that are absorbed in the small intestines. Neutralizing these starches (carbs) allows them to pass through the digestive system, decreasing the number of calories absorbed, potentially promoting weight loss.

Soluble Dietary Fiber
A digestion resistant source of soluble fiber which helps with cleansing and detoxifying the system.

De-Oiled Lecithin
Do-oiled lecithin is a natural solubilizer that helps emulsify fats and water and provide a creamy consistency.

Guar
Guar is a non ionic water soluble fiber. Guar promotes satiety, slows the digestion of a meal, thus lowering the glycemic index. Guar may help support the increased absorption of calcium and lower serum cholesterol.

Additional Benefits
Lycopene is a powerful inhibitor of lung, breast, and endometrial cancer.

• The compounds found in tomatoes; coumaric acid and chlorogenic acid, help block the effect of nitrosamines found in tobacco smoke and may help reduce lung can- cer.
• Serum PSA, primary tumor volume, and secondary tumor incidence, and pain associated with prostate cancer metastasis decline in patients who received lycopene tomato extract. (Ansari: et al. 2003)
• Lycopene in the body is concentrated in the liver, prostate, adrenal glands and testes.
• Lycopene may help reduce the risk of cataracts and men- tal degeneration.
• Supplementation with tomato products containing Lycopene, has been shown to lower biomarkers of oxida- tive stress.
• Women with the highest levels of Lycopene in their blood have five times a lower risk of developing pre- cancerous signs of cervical cancer than women with lower Lycopene levels. University of Illinois study qtd. in Natural Products Industries, Ltd. Brochure.

The Science of Weight Loss

The kind of food we eat affects our diet-induced thermogenesis or as it is sometimes called “Specific Dynamic Action” (SDA). This is the amount of calories your body burns when digesting, absorbing, and metabolizing a meal. Simply it means that it takes calories to burn and release the calories in food. A person’s SDA constitutes about 10% of the total calories burned.

The kind of food we eat will affect Specific Dynamic Action. Proteins such as Ultra Whey Pro™ and Meal in a Glass™ elicits the highest SDA, followed closely by carbohydrates. Fats are a problem for most people as fat creates a significantly smaller amount of SDA to be digested. This accounts for the fact that high-fat diets can be detrimental to losing weight (this was one of the problems with the Atkins diet).

The body does not use up many calories to digest and assimilate fats. When a person eats 100 calories worth of protein and carbohydrates, the body will use up approximately 25% of these calories just to digest the nutrients. However, when a person eats 100 calories worth of fat, the body will only burn about 3% in the digestion process.

Food scientists have documented that the more frequently we eat, the more energy we will expend in digesting the food. This has resulted in nutritionists recommending that we eat usually four to six small meals per day. Skinny Tomato™ can be substituted for one or more of those small meals per day. However, this advice comes with high warnings. This strategy will work only if the composition of the food is low in calories and in appropriate quantity.

Science tells us that starvation diets create a “yo-yo effect” of weight loss, followed by weight gain. The body interprets lack of food as a nutritional famine and responds by reducing its metabolic rate. Nutritious meals are the foundation of healthy natural weight loss.

Hearty Soup Recipes:

Use Skinny Tomato™ once or twice a day as a meal replacement (preferable breakfast and dinner). If you feel hungry between meals take an additional serving at any time. Do not wait until extreme hunger occurs as this causes a tendency to overeat due to lower blood sugar levels. If over 20 lbs. beyond your desired weight you may wish to try our Hearty Soup Recipe options.

Option 1: Add 1 serving of Whey Pro™ Protein Powder to 1 serving of Skinny Tomato™. This will give you approximately 24 grams of protein in one quick meal. (Total calories 155) Protein has a high SDA.

Option 2: Add ½ cup chopped lightly steamed vegetables; carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, peas, bell peppers, water chestnuts, or any of your favorite vegetables to each serving of Skinny Tomato™. Avoid potatoes, rice, and corn. Can also add 4 oz. of lean chopped meat if desired.

Option 3: Add two servings of Skinny Tomato™ to make a larger portion (only 100 calories and zero fat). May add one serving of Magic Fiber™ CLR to enhance the dietary fiber content. (15 grams of fiber total).

Option 4: Use as a soup base, instead of canned soups which usually have high sodium content. Be creative.
