        <Summary>Jeff Miller becomes a real life case study, to prove the amazing benefits of diet and lifestyle modification on improving your health and reducing your biological age.</Summary>
        <Description>
&lt;P&gt;Exercise physiologist and nutrition consultant, &lt;A 
href="http://blog.seniorsafety.com/public/blog/95425"&gt;Eric Sternlicht, 
Ph.D.&lt;/A&gt;, Assistant Professor of &lt;A 
href="http://www.oxy.edu/x1877.xml"&gt;Kinesiology at Occidental College 
&lt;/A&gt;and&amp;nbsp;two-time USCF Masters National&amp;nbsp;Cycling Champion&amp;nbsp;(AKA: 
Wiseman, Metabolic Wizard, Metabolic Mystery Man, Coach, Metabolic Prophet and 
more), along with other experts, assist &lt;A 
href="http://blog.seniorsafety.com/public/item/95580"&gt;Jeff Miller&lt;/A&gt; in 
reducing his biological age, disease risk, and improving his health while 
getting off of most medications through diet, exercise, and lifestyle 
modifications.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P align=center&gt;&lt;IMG alt="Jeff Miller's time line" hspace=0

border=0&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;We will document the changes of Jeff a 57 year-old male who through time, 
medical mismanagement, misdirection, boredom, laziness, you name it, has 
deteriorated his biological age. This once healthy vibrant male, a collegiate 
gymnast, active middle-aged man who could easily ride his bicycle two hours 
along the beach, declined in health, through diet, medication mismanagement, and 
sedentary behavior to the point of mild-obesity, metabolic syndrome, and a host 
of other disorders. 
&lt;P&gt;Follow this case study, and Dr. Sternlicht's metabolic wisdom, applied to 
lower Jeff's biological age. &lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;EM&gt;It has been amazing and surprising from 
the very start.&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Please read this &lt;A

         <Name>Scientific research proves the program works.</Name>
         <Summary>The modified regression diet and exercise removes most disease markers and improves well being - studies prove it.</Summary>
         <Description>
&lt;DIV id=post_message_177&gt;What amazes me most about Jeff's story is not the 
changes which have occurred but rather that more physicians and individuals in 
the medical community don't use diet, exercise, and lifestyle modification to 
treat most of today's degenerative diseases.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Yes, &lt;B&gt;there is a place for 
medicine and pharmacological treatment&lt;/B&gt;. Don't get me wrong. I am definitely 
not anti-medicine. &lt;B&gt;&lt;I&gt;I am, however, for using diet &amp;amp; exercise as a 
preventative or curative treatment for diseases which are brought on by poor 
diet and a sedentary lifestyle&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/B&gt;. &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Research has proven that poor 
dietary habits results in poor health. That a sedentary lifestyle results in 
faster deterioration in all systems of the body than due to aging 
alone.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Research, much of it initiated by Nathan Pritikin and the Pritikin 
Longevity Center, continued on through Dean Ornish and his work with regression 
of atherosclerosis, and others has proven that a healthy diet, activity, and 
stress reduction all work to improve health and remove disease.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;In Jeff's 
Health Club we are simply integrating the scientific research into a usable 
program to eliminate many degenerative diseases and improve well-being. And, 
yes, lose weight in the process. &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;B&gt;Scientific research proves the 
program works&lt;/B&gt;. &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;I&gt;&lt;B&gt;Jeff, you are an inspiration and a shining 
example of what the program can achieve. I am extremely happy for you and for 
the accomplishments you've made in your life. I look forward to continued 
collaboration, success, and health!&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</Description>

         <Name>Update - Jeff's Health Club results in amazing improvements in functional capacity and biological age.</Name>
         <Summary>Between Oct. 6, 2005 and Jan. 16, 2006 not only did Jeff remove five prescription meds and diseases but he also reduced his BA by 13.6 years.</Summary>
         <Description>
&lt;P&gt;In the fourteen weeks between the first measurements of Jeff's functional 
capacity on October 6, 2005 at Occidental College and the second measurements at 
&lt;A href="http://jeffshealthclub.com/index.html"&gt;Jeff's Health Club&lt;/A&gt; workshop 
on January 16 &amp;amp; 17, 2006 Jeff improved his functional capacity to the point 
where his calculated biological age (BA)&amp;nbsp;reduced 13.6 years.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;When we tested Jeff the first time in October we measured 18 different 
physiological parameters from five main categories: body composition measures, 
disease markers, aerobic conditioning measures, strength measures, and 
flexibility measures. We ran many of the same test from each category&amp;nbsp;in 
January and when we selected 15 of the identical tests his average biological 
age went from 62.8 years to 49.2 years. This is an amazing result&amp;nbsp;that came 
about through his dedicated efforts and adherence to&amp;nbsp;the program.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Not only did he reduce is BA, he got off of five prescription medications and 
eliminated his prior disease markers for hypercholesterolemia (high total- 
&amp;amp;LDL-cholesterol and low HDL-cholesterol), hypertriglyceridemia (high blood 
triglycerides or fats), hypertension (high blood pressure), NIDDM (non-insulin 
dependent diabetes), metabolic syndrome, and rheumatoid arthritis.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Like I said - amazing results for an amazing man. You can follow more on the 
program and &lt;A href="http://jeffshealthclub.com/index.html"&gt;Jeff's Health 
Club&lt;/A&gt; on the &lt;A href="http://jeffshealthclub.com/forum/"&gt;forum&lt;/A&gt; within the

         <Name>How we kicked High Triglyceride's (Hypertriglyceridemia's) butt</Name>
         <Summary>How long did it take Dr. Eric's prescription to kick High Triglyceride's butt?</Summary>
         <Description>&lt;strong&gt;How did we do it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;It took three (3) weeks to drop my triglycerides from 500 to 150...and that's a fact.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For 1.5 years I was prescribed 10 mg. of Lipitor in an attempt to reduce my total-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once I began the diet and exercise guidelines of the program 3.5 months ago, the drug, assisted by my program, helped my total cholesterol to drop from above 220 to 126, LDL from over 200 to 100, but raised my triglycerides from 250 to 500.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr. Eric knew something was not right. He remembered that some of the Pritikin clients had the same problem. In their studies, Pritikin researchers eliminated foods till they found a culprit. Often when placed on a low-fat, high-carbohydrate diet, &lt;b&gt;it was the fructose (sugar) in fruit&lt;/b&gt; which elevated blood triglyceride levels. Apparently, in some individuals who have high blood cholesterol &lt;u&gt;and&lt;/u&gt; high blood triglyceride levels, fructose goes preferentially to the liver where it is converted into triglycerides rather than carbohydrates. Go figure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I told my internist that DrEric wanted me to remove all fruit and fructose from my diet for 3 weeks and retest, he laughed. Sure enough, 3 weeks later my triglycerides dropped to 150.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What did the medical doctors think? They said, &amp;quot;Wow, looks like the Lipitor is finally doing the job.&amp;quot; They thought that the removal of fructose from my diet had nothing to do with it. That was the beginning of the end for that doctor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since that time, continued dietary changes along with exercise have lowered my cholesterol to 126, lowered LDL's to 100, and lowered triglycerides to 150...the MD's, reluctantly, gave me permission to remove the Lipitor. They appear to know very little about nutrition's role in disease progression and physiology, and even care less about it. Sometimes they are fools. Even when presented with the changes in my blood work they still didn't believe it...they believe in increasing the toxic drugs that continue to make your liver very unhappy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I have a 140 total cholesterol, a 150 triglyceride, and a 89 LDL...&lt;b&gt;without any medication.&lt;/b&gt; And the numbers continue to drop. I expect cholesterol to head toward 125, LDL to lower to 60, and triglycerides to lower to below 100. My liver and I are very happy now. Stay tuned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All this accomplished by reducing fruit and fructose and increasing mono-unsaturated and omega-3 fats in my diet combined with increased levels of mild activity. Next I'll tell you what Dr. Eric prescribed to lower my total cholesterol...increasing fiber and lowering saturated fats rule.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Amazing!
