Despite enormous advances in modern food manufacturing, America’s health has never been worse. Consider these sobering statistics: 1 in 4 Americans is on one or more lifestyle-induced drugs, 25% of adults over 40 are on a statin for cholesterol, 87 million Americans are pre-diabetic or diabetic, and 72.2% of the population is obese or overweight — including 31.8% of children. Clearly, something has gone fundamentally wrong with the way we eat. Our bodies were never designed to consume the large amounts of refined sugar, HFCS, cereals, breads, GMO foods, and pasteurized dairy products that dominate the modern diet. In Paleolithic times, our ancestors thrived on vegetables, fruit, nuts, and animal protein — a diet naturally high in healthy fats and low in grains and sugar.
A ketogenic approach addresses this directly, and the Transformations 360 Program is Dr. Talerico’s 5-week, biochemically balanced ketogenic weight loss plan designed to help the body become incredibly efficient at burning fat for fuel. Unlike most weight loss plans — which cause people to lose muscle instead of fat, lowering metabolic rate and making long-term success nearly impossible — Transformations 360 specifically targets body fat, particularly the dangerous abdominal and hip fat that drives:
- Insulin resistance, Type 2 diabetes, and systemic inflammation
- Elevated risk for cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and numerous other chronic conditions
The program works by converting fat into ketones in the liver, which then supply clean energy for the brain. It is designed to eliminate food cravings, increase energy, and lower cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood pressure — all while eating whole, healthy foods. Weekly check-ins include not just weigh-ins but also measurements and Body Composition Analysis to confirm that participants are losing fat, not muscle. Most participants lose 15–25 lbs. in just five weeks. And according to the landmark book Psycho-Cybernetics, it takes only 21 days to break an old habit and create a new one — making this 5-week program the perfect opportunity to build a lifetime of healthy eating habits for good.
