these concepts
Fat Is Storedin Fat Cells
• When it comes to fat you are what you
eat. If you eat too much fat your body
will have too much fat
• If you eat the wrong types of fats, the
bad fat stored in your body takes about
one year to clear out
• You can lose your extra fat in a healthy
way by eating less fat and calories
• The body releases the fat for energy
when it is needed and that is how you
lose the excess fat from your body
• You don’t want to have zero fat, but
need a certain amount for health
• The average percent body fat for men
and athletic women is 15 to 20 percent,
and for inactive women it is normally
between 22 and 28 percent
9.
Body Protein
• Protein is stored in the cells of your muscles and
organs
• If you don’t eat enough protein, your body will
break down the protein in your muscles and
organs to produce energy
• When you cut calories you must still meet your
protein needs
• By eating enough protein and exercising you can
build muscle and change your shape forever

Proving, Testing andProviding
Powerful Results Today
• Clinical trials to demonstrate the science
behind our products
• 3 studies on F1, PPP and the power of protein
(in Germany, USA, Korea). In Germany:
“Drinking protein-enriched meal
replacement shakes lead to more
effective weight-management than
limiting calories alone”
“64% of those in the high protein group were
considered to be at much lower risk of common health
problems associated with being over-weight, compared
with 41% who consumed the standard amount of protein”
