 New Research: Fat Is Contagious?

---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
By Jon Benson

     It's like a dream come true.
     
          "Gaining bodyfat is the result        
           of a virus."
     
     Wouldn't that be great news Lewis?
     
     Well...
     
     Let me tell you about the AD-36 adenovirus.
     Adenoviruses are the same nasty bugs that
     cause the common cold. We all have these
     viruses in various forms in our body all
     the time.
     
     That last bit is a critical distinction.

     Remember that.
     
     The Pennington Biomedical Research Center
     in Louisiana has been doing some really
     ground-breaking research on AD-36. AD-36
     affects stem cells... more specifically fat
     cells, both pre-formed and post-formed.
     
     This means AD-36 can make MORE fat cells
     if contracted as an infant and make your fat
     cells larger if contracted as an adult.
     
     Or so the theory goes.
     
     To quote the study:
     
     "Earlier researchers have concluded that
     Ad-36 may be contributors to obesity by
     super-charging fat cells to grow and store
     more fat. Until now, though, those
     researchers thought the viruses targeted
     pre-fat cells (called pre-adipocytes),
     causing them to convert in higher numbers
     to fat cells and causing those fat cells to
     be larger. Those studies were in mice.
     Pasaricas work determines the virus
     targets stem cells in humans."
     
          The result?
     
     "In one test, a third of obese people had
     the rare and highly contagious virus
     compared to just 11 percent of thinner
     people. Weight gain can last three months
     until the body has built up resistance to
     the bug."
     
     Wow. Sounds like we have a winner here. A
     virus that you can catch that literally
     makes you gain bodyfat!  All we need is...
     
          a vaccine!
     
     Right?
     
          Wrong.
     
     First of all, notice that 11% of LEAN
     people have AD-36. And at any given time,
     just like a cold or a flu virus, you could
     contract AD-36. If your body has 'never'
     been exposed to it, you may require about 3
     months to build up antibodies to ward it off.
     
     Now, you can gain a lot of weight in 3
     months... but come on. You cannot become
     obese in three months unless you are
     really, REALLY working at it.
     
     Plus, like most viruses, you build up
     immunity to AD-36. Researchers do not
     know how long the immunity lasts, but some
     theorize it could last years... some even
     decades.
     
     And let's not forget those 11% who are lean
     and have the virus.
     
     Why did they not all of a sudden get "sick"
     with bodyfat?
     
          Because they are not EATING or LIVING
          in a way that allows them to gain bodyfat no
          matter what nasty freakin' viruses may be
          floating about, that's why.
     
     That's right folks:  It is always going to
     come down to the food we put in our body
     and the way we move.

     Here's another hypothesis presented by Sherry Strong, food philosopher and nutritionist:  "This could very well be the result of nature creating a mutation to encourage us to eat more due to the fact our consumption of natural, whole and organic foods is so low."

     Brilliant observation... and one that makes complete sense.
     
     Even if a "virus" is responsible for 20% of
     our weightgain, what about the other 80%?
     
     We do not need a vaccine other than good
     food and a common sense workout plan.
     
     Here's the best --
     
     The Real-World Plan  <-- the "vaccine" for bodyfat
     
     Here's why I love this workout:
     
     1. It's fast. 7-14 minutes 3-5 days per
     week. Anyone on earth can do this.
     
     2. The Basic Upgrade (you will see it)
     still comes with a copy of my book The
     Every Other Day Diet. Put the two together
     and you have an absolute winner of a plan
     that's practical and enjoyable.
     
     3. Plus, anyone who owns Every Other Day
     Diet gets my upcoming Radical Fatloss
     Blueprint book freee. It comes out March 1st.
     
     That's 3 good reasons to go here and

     check out 7 Minute Muscle....

   
     The Real-World Plan  <--- the "vaccine" for bodyfat
     
     Here's one more:
     
          You know better.
     
     You know that there's never going to be a
     magic pill for health, vitality, energy and
     looking your best.
     
     We can keep hoping... or you can take
     action and get what you want now.
     
     To me, that makes more sense than AD-36
     "Super-Retro Fat-burning Vaccine" to hit
     the marketplace in 2021.
