The world's leading doctors and scientists will present the latest evidence at the Low Carb USA conference in San Diego in July to show, amongst other things, that obesity is not from gluttony and sloth. They will explain why the so-called CICO model of calories in, calories out is unscientific and just plain wrong. The experts will also look at the role of hormones, driven by excessive sugar and carbohydrates in the diet, that play a significant role in obesity and other serious health issues.
San Diego, CA, June 24, 2016 (Newswire.com) - The conference will hear personal stories of triumph over obesity and its associated health complications. One of those is from Jimmy Moore, founder and editor of Livin' La Vida Low-Carb, and one of the top-ranked iTunes health podcasts, The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.
Jimmy catapulted onto the health scene in 2004 after a phenomenal 180-pound weight loss success enabled him to come off prescription drugs for high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and respiratory problems. He has recently incorporated therapeutic fasting into his routine to improve his health further. He does so under the close supervision of famed Canadian nephrologist Dr. Jason Fung, the foremost world authority on therapeutic fasting, and a speaker at the conference.
Jimmy is co-author of Cholesterol Clarity: What the HDL Is Wrong with My Numbers? and Keto Clarity: Your Definitive Guide To The Benefits Of A Low-Carb, High-Fat Diet with Duke University associate professor of medicine, Dr. Eric Westman, who is also a conference speaker. Due for release soon is Jimmy’s book co-authored with Dr. Fung called Fasting Clarity.
