1. Green Tea- Contains ECGC a potent thermodynamic enhancer helping melt off pounds while packing a super anti-oxidant punch helping keep Cancer and other diseases from presenting. Be sure to steep your tea for 5 minutes to get all the goodstuff into the cup and it's not a bad idea to use 2 tea bags to be sure. Flavour with a lemon if you like but try not to add sugar. Drink at least 2 big cups a day and more if you want more metabolic kick. Cheers!
2. Lecithin- This potent fat burner is found in Oatmeal and Eggs (Read article on Dr.M's Top 3...) It can also be purchased as a supplement. It has the added benefits of being a great anti-oxidant and helping support healthy brain function. Add an egg (the whole thing!) and a cup of steel cut oats to your morning routine to give you a great boost and energetic start for your day.
3. Sea Kelp- Supports the Thyroid Gland with a great source of Iodine. The Thryoid gland takes sugar from the body and converts it to heat keeping the body at 98.6 degrees. Iodine helps fuel this metabolic machine.
   

Like the famous hip hop star Jay Z says in one of his songs, “H to the O!” (I’m sure that’s not what he meant but it works for the purpose of this article). Everyday in our clinic the importance of water has become a mantra. We hear so much about how our body is made primarily of water and that we need to drink lots. What is lots? Some say 8 cups a day, others say 64 ounces a day, some say just keep drinking until your urine is clear. Well I’d have to agree the closest with the latter, but how do you get there without inspecting your urine constantly?

Here is the simple formula to follow in relation to water:

Drink 1/2 Your body weight in ounces every day. Therefore if you weigh 100 lbs, you should drink 50 ounces of water.

In addition to that for any beverage you drink that isn’t water you need to drink that much more water. For example, if you have a 20 ounce cup of coffee in the morning you must add 20 more ounces of water to your daily quota. THIS GOES FOR ANY BEVERAGE THAT ISN’T WATER.
