GLASSMAN IS A REGISTERED

DIETITIAN AND NUTRITION

EXPERT.

SHE SAYS IT IS TIME TO GIVE

NOURISHING FOOD A STARRING

ROLE IN OUR LIFE.

SIMPLE, PLANT-BASED FOODS

ARE THE BEST.

HER EIGHT EMPOWERING FOODS

WILL HELP YOU LOSE UP TO

20 POUNDS IN EIGHT WEEKS,

AND PAVE THE WAY FOR A WHOLE

NEW YOU.

Terry: PLEASE WELCOME

BACK TO "THE 700 CLUB,"

NUTRITIONIST TERRY

GLASSMAN.

THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME

BACK.

Terry: YOU TALK ABOUT

EMPOWERING FOODS.

PEOPLE LIKE TO FEEL LIKE

FOOD ISN'T USING THEM,

THEY'RE USING IT.

LET'S TALK ABOUT EATING

MORE, NOT LESS.

THAT IS AN ENCOURAGEMENT TO

PEOPLE WHO ARE NOW TRYING TO

KEEP THOSE NEW YEAR'S

RESOLUTIONS AND FEEL LIKE

THEY HAVE TO STARVE

THEMSELVES TO DO IT.

IN THE EIGHT RULES IN THE

BOOK "THE NEW YOU AND

IMPROVED DIET," ONLY ONE

DIRECTLY RELATES TO FOOD.

ALL OF THE OTHER RULES ARE

ABOUT THE OTHER LIFESTYLE OF

FACTORS, STRESS AND SLEEP,

THAT AFFECT NOT ONLY YOUR

HEALTH, BUT YOUR WAISTLINE.

SO THE FIRST ONE, EAT MORE,

NOT LESS, IS ABOUT EATING

EMPOWERED.

WHAT I MEAN WHEN I SAY

EATING EMPOWERED, I LIKE

PEOPLE TO FLIP THEIR FOOD

ATTITUDE.

INSTEAD OF THINKING ABOUT

WHAT YOU CAN'T EAT -- PEOPLE

OFTEN WHEN THEY START A DIET

AND EXERCISE PLAN, THEY

THINK I CAN'T HAVE THAT AND

IT IS ALL NEGATIVE ENERGY.

Terry: AND THE MINUTE

YOU THINK THAT, WHAT IS THE

FOOD YOU WANT?

CORRECT.

I WANT PEOPLE TO BE POSITIVE

AND THINK ABOUT WHAT THEY

CAN EAT.

WHEN YOU FOCUS ON THE HEALTH

BENEFITS OF FOOD, FOODS THAT

ARE GOING TO BE GOOD FOR

YOUR SKIN AND PREVENT HEART

DISEASE AND CANCER.

WEIGHT LOSS IS A PART OF

THAT.

YOU FEEL BETTER AND YOU LOOK

BETTER, AGAIN, AS A

BY-PRODUCT.

AND YOUR MORE MOTIVATED TO

EAT THESE EMPOWERING, REAL

FOODS.

INTERPRETER WHEN

Terry: WHEN YOU EAT

THIS

WAY, YOU'RE THINKING

ABOUT MAKING A BETTER YOU.

WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THE

BENEFITS OF FOOD, HERE WE

HAVE THESE EIGHT WHAT I CALL

EMPOWERING FOODS.

HIGH IN ANTIOXIDANTS, FIBRE,

AND THEY'RE GOOD FOR YOUR

HEART AND SKIN.

I WANT TO HAVE THOSE

BLUEBERRIES.

IT IS NOT I CAN'T HAVE THAT

CHOCOLATE CAKE.

AND I TELL PEOPLE TO LEARN

TO LISTEN TO THEIR BODIES.

EAT WHEN YOU'RE SLIGHTLY

H1N HUNGRY, AND STOP EATING

WHEN YOU'RE SLIGHTLY

SATISFYING.

THAT'S HARD TO DO, BUT I

GUIDE PEOPLE THROUGH THAT.

YOU DON'T NE TO FOCUS ON THE

CALORIES.

I DON'T EVEN PUT CALORIES IN

THE BOOK.

YOU NATURALLY, ALMOST

AUTOMATICALLY, LOSE WEIGHT.

Terry: WHEN YOU'RE

EATING FOODS THAT FEED YOU

IN A GOOD WAY, LIKE THIS,

DOES THAT KEEP THOSE

CRAVINGS FROM COMING?

IT DOES WHEN YOU FOLLOW

ON THE PLAN.

I HAVE AN EIGHT WEEK PLAN

AND A CLEANSE.

THE CLEANSE HAS EIGHT FOODS

AND YOU EAT CONSISTENT OF

THROUGHOUT THE DAY, REAL

FOOD.

BUT WHEN YOU LEARN TO EAT

CONSISTENTLY THROUGHOUT THE

DAY, REAL FOODS THAT ARE

NATURALLY SWEET AND SAVORY,

YOU DO REDUCE THOSE

CRAVINGS.

Terry: I LOVE THE FACT

THAT YOU START WITH A

CLEANSE.

IT IS A SIGNIFICANT THING IN

THE WORLD WE LIVE IN TODAY.

IT JUMP-STARTS YOU.

TAKE OUT ALL OF THE

PROCESSED FOODS AND THE

SODIUM AND THE SUGAR.

IT IS THE FRAMEWORK FOR THE

REST OF THE PLAN AND THE WAY

YOU SHOULD BE EATING FOR THE

LONG-TERM.

AND YOU CAN LOSE ABOUT FIVE

TO SEVEN POUNDS IN THOSE

FIRST FOUR DAYS.

YOU'RE MOTIVATED AND YOU'RE

RESETTING YOUR BODY AND

TASTEBUDS.

Terry: THESE ARE THE

FOODS THAT --

THESE ARE MY FAVORITE

EIGHT EMPOWERING FOODS.

THESE ARE JUST A FEW OF MY

FAVORITES.

I LOVE GREEN TEA.

IT HELPS YOU BURN FAT.

I LOVE YOGURT.

CALCIUM, WHICH, OBVIOUSLY,

IS GOOD FOR HELPING BUILD

STRONG BONES.

AND CINNAMON, JUST THAT

ALONE CAN HELP RELAX YOU.

BLUEBERRIES WE KNOW ARE

LOADED WITH FIBER AND

ANTIOXIDANTS, AND SO THEY'RE

GOING TO KEEP YOU FULL AND

SATISFY THAT SWEET CRAVING.

AND BLACK BEANS AND SWEET

POTATOES.

THERE ARE A WHOLE BUNCH IN

THERE.

AND WE HAVE CHILI PEPPERS,

WHICH HAS CA CAPSAICIN,

WHICH IS KNOWN TO HELP

REDUCE YOUR APPETITE BECAUSE

YOU'RE SO MUCH MORE

SATISFIED WHEN YOU'RE EATING

IT.

SO YOU'RE MORE SATISFIED.

AND THEN THEY ALSO HAVE BEEN

SHOWN TO EVEN HELP YOU BURN

A LITTLE BIT OF WEIGHT, BURN

A LITTLE BIT OF FAT.

Terry: THAT'S THE FIRST

SEGMENT.

NOW YOU'VE GOT EIGHT MORE

RIGHT HERE.

THESE ARE THE

STRESS-RELIEVING FOODS.

BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT STRESS

WREAKS HAVOC ON YOUR

HEALTH.

THE SECOND RULE OF THE BOOK

IS CALLED BREATHE YOUR WAY

THIN.

BACK, REMEMBER I WAS TALKING

ABOUT AT THE BEGINNING OF

THIS SEGMENT HOW FOOD IS ONE

COMPONENT OF BEING HEALTHY.

VERY OFTEN, PEOPLE ARE SO

SURPRISED WHEN I TELL THEM

TO FOCUS ON THEIR STRESS,

AND TO FOCUS ON THEIR

SLEEP.

BUT IF WE DON'T FOCUS ON

THOSE THINGS, WE ARE NOT

GOING TO LOSE WEIGHT.

WHEN YOU'RE STRESSED, YOUR

HORMONE CORTISOL INCREASES.

IT CAUSES YOU TO GAIN WEIGHT

SPECIFICALLY IN YOUR

MID-SECTION.

IT IS SO CRITICAL TO FOCUS

ON MANAGING YOUR STRESS.

I SAY FIND STRESS RELIEVING

FOODS.

AND I DON'T MEAN MAC AND

CHEESE OR ICE CREAM.

I SAY FOODS THAT ARE GOING

TO HELP YOU RELIEVE STRESS.

THINGS LIKE OATS AND WHOLE

GRAINS HELP YOU'RE BODY

PRODUCE SEROTONIN.

AND THAT'S A NATURAL

FEEL-GOOD HORMONE.

AND ORANGES ARE LOADED WITH

VITAMIN "C."

VITAMIN "C" HAS BEEN SHOWN

TO HELP OUR BODIES RECOVER

FROM STRESS.

CELERY.

THE CRUNCH ALONE CAN BE

SATISFYING AND CAN HELP

RELIEVE STRESS.

BUT THERE IS ALSO A COMPOUND

IN CELERY THAT HAS BEEN

FOUND TO HELP LOWER OUR

BLOOD PRESSURE.

GRASS-FED BEEF IS LOADED

WITH OMEGA-3s.

AND YOU'RE MORE LIKELY TO

NOT BECOME DEPRESSED.

THE BOOK IS LOADED WITH LOTS

OF STRESS-RELIEVING FOODS.

Terry: BEFORE WE GET TO

THE END, I WANT TO GET TO

THE PAMPERING FOOD.

SELF-CARE.

IF YOU DON'T TAKE CARE OF

YOURSELF.

IF YOU DON'T PUT THAT OXYGEN

MASK ON YOU, YOU CAN'T TAKE

CARE OF EVERYONE ELSE.

WHEN YOU TAKE CARE OF

YOURSELF, YOU'RE GOING TO

SLEEP BETTER AND LOSE

WEIGHT.

ALSO A LOT OF THE REAL FOODS

YOU SHOULD BE EATING, THEY

CAN ALSO BE USED FOR YOUR

CARE AS FAR AS YOUR SKIN

GOES AND YOUR BEAUTY

REGIMEN.

A FEW OF THESE I LOVE,

PAPAYA, LOADED WITH VITAMIN

"C," AND YOU CAN PUT IT ON

YOUR SKIN.

AND ZINC IS ACTUALLY GOOD

FOR YOUR OVERALL SKIN

INTEGRITY.

COCONUT, LOADED WITH THE

M.C.

T.s, THE CERTAIN TYPE

OF FAT THAT CANNOT ONLY HELP

YOU BURN FAT, BUT I LIKE TO

MIX IT TO MY MOISTERIZER AND

APPLY IT TOP CLE TOPICLY TO

MY SKIN.

AND FIGS A GREAT.

Terry: I WANT YOU TO

KNOW WE'RE TOUCHING THE TIP

OF THE ICEBERG HERE.

YOU NEED TO GETTER RE'S

BOOK.

IT IS CALLED "THE NEW AND

IMPROVED DIET."

IF YOU'RE SOMEONE WHO HAS

MADE A RESOLUTION THIS YEAR,

AND YOU WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT

OR YOU JUST WANT TO BE

HEALTHY, THIS IS THE BOOK TO

READ.

IT IS THE RIGHT WAY TO THE

NEW YOU FOR

THIS NEW YEAR.

THANK YOU, TERRY.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR

HAVING ME.
