I’m a 5’7, 225 pounds diabetic woman. I’m having a hard time getting rid of stomach fat. Any suggestions? This is my problem area.
There is no such thing as spot reduction or losing fat in one area. But you can still do it as a diabetic. Increase whole grains and fiber content of your foods. Do interval training for 30 minutes 4 days a week. Join our SHRED Purple Smoothie Challenge at shredlife.com.
Do natural sugars give you natural fat ?
It doesn’t work that way. Sugar can turn into fat when you don’t expend enough energy to consume it. But it’s really about the calories. Anything that has extra calories can lead to increased fat.
My question for Dr Ian is are there any plans in his book for vegans?
Absolutely. Lots of vegans are on the SHRED Power Cleanse. You will LOVE it!
Is the detox expensive?
Not at all. People of all income levels are doing it. I designed it for EVERYONE!
Dr. Ian, I am a diabetic and love smoothies but the sugar from the fruits and veggies raises my sugar level. Any alternative?
Increase the amount of whole grains you eat. Decrease the fruit content of the smoothies and choose those with whole grains like oats. You can do it. There are lots of diabetics on our Facebook Support Group SHRED Purple Smoothie Challenge.
If you can not eat seafood will you still be able to participate?

What’s the best way to lose stubborn belly fat?
A weight loss program that increases protein and lowers bad carbs. And a moderate exercise program.
