6by6Living™
The single most effective change you can make to change your nutrition and activity to avoid and reverse obesity and metabolic disease is to match your eating and activity cycles with the body’s everyday natural cycles. Scientists call this Time Restricted Eating (or Feeding when discussing lab research). This is not the same as Intermittent Fasting which changes by day of the week. According to the new science, Intermittent Fasting makes as much sense as Intermittent Sleeping.
6by6Living is a Time Restricted Eating plan where each day you do all your eating in a 6-hour period that ends 6 hours before sleeping. Food is optimally processed to make energy, not fat based on the hormone changes of the circadian rhythm. It also allows the gut to rest, recover, and recharge. This program explains the science, giving you the confidence to try it and be convinced by your results.
SnackNix™
Life is a batch process, and the digestive system’s mechanical and chemical processes work best on batches of food. Continuous eating, also known as snacking, upends the batch process of the digestive system. Not snacking lets the body rest, reload, and recharge the mechanics and chemistry of digestion for the next batch. New insights about how the gut and microbiome function reveal that these snacks are much more harmful than just the extra calories, which is bad enough.
The Nutrimatters SnackNix™ Program is mobilizing the public to encourage stores to dismantle the gauntlet of mostly harmful snacks in the checkout lanes. Use this program to add your voice to the cause.
SitNix™
Sitting is called the new smoking because new research shows sitting is worse for your health than smoking. Body fat releases inflammatory hormones throughout the day. The body’s natural counter-inflammatory system releases anti-inflammatory hormones only when muscles are activated. Numerous muscles are activated just by standing and being weight-bearing. So, whenever you are weight-bearing, you neutralize the inflammatory hormones of fat with anti-inflammatory hormones of activated muscle.
The SitNix™ Program helps you find financial support to purchase standing desks and tables, dynamic seating, and other items that encourage you to be weight-bearing throughout your day.
TrustedEating™
The TrustedEating™ Program helps you find food that is certified by Nutrimatters and helps producers get authorized to show the TrustedEating logo on their products. The new science makes it clear that in the nutrient-rich modern diet, it’s more important what you don’t eat than what you do eat.. Nutrimatters reviews producers’ ingredient lists and randomly conducts laboratory testing to ensure the submitted ingredient lists are accurate for the certified products in the market.
We ensure the food you’re eating contains no preservatives (natural or synthetic), additives, emulsifiers, thickeners, added complex sugars (fructose, sucrose, etc.) harmful oils, flavor enhancers to make food addictive, or other threshold toxins unless they are are proven safe for you AND your gut and microbiome. Before something is added to food, our standard is it must be proven safe, rather than the current standard of not yet proven harmful.
