METABOLIQ® - An Entirely Original Model

 

Qivana’s comprehensive METABOLIQ System is based on the most exciting

breakthroughs in weight loss research in decades. This new understanding has led

to the development of a total lifestyle approach to weight loss and management

proven to be simple to use and sustainable for the long-term.

a. METABOLIQ’s totally unique formulas, products, ingredients, and programs are

the crowning achievementof more than three decades of published research,

millions of dollars in studies, and with efficacy established by random controlled human clinical trials.

This system proves that sustainable fat loss and dramatic improvements in body composition

are possible with proper nutrition at any age.

 

No other program delivers these reliable and sustainable results.

The METABOLIQ System is backed by the discoveries and award-winning research

of Dr. Donald Layman, a world-leading nutrition and metabolic scientist at the

University of Illinois. Dr. Layman has partnered with Qivana to reveal his weight

loss breakthroughs in a simple 90-day system that provides real, reliable, dramatic

results. This system is based on four unique and highly targeted mechanisms to

energize the body’s ability to burn calories and eliminate unwanted body fat.

 

1.First, the METABOLIQ System activates your muscles to their full potential. Your muscles determine

everything about your body weight including how many calories you can tolerate, what foods

you need, and ultimately your health.

b. The METABOLIQ System introduces an important new

concept of macrobalance that focuses on eating the right portions of the right proteins,

carbohydrates, and fats at each meal to energize and rebuild your muscles. Macrobalance is based

on Dr. Layman’s ground-breaking discoveries about the branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) in

protein and how these essential amino acids activate your muscles to repair and remodel our most

fundamental structures including muscle proteins and mitochondria, the metabolic furnaces of your body.

c.This process actually causes you to use stored body fat to fuel the energy needs of these

highly active muscles. In this way weight control is all about helping the muscles do the work. Body

composition changes by losing the right weight—weight from fat, and not from active tissues like muscles or organs.

 

2.The second way the METABOLIQ System reduces fat is by minimizing insulin action to store excess

dietary carbohydrates as body fat. This is achieved by consuming the proper amount of the right kind of carbohydrates.

d,e The system gives you the right proportions of the best foods for fat burning

including high quality proteins and SmartCarbs while minimizing starchy carbs at every meal. This

is all part of the new macrobalance concept. Getting the correct balance of these macronutrients

stabilizes blood sugar, reduces energy crashes, eliminates cravings, and halts hunger pangs.*

 

3.To further accelerate fat burning, the METABOLIQ System includes a Boost capsule containing

clinically validated weight loss ingredients that create a thermogenic effect in the

body to increase metabolism and help burn fat. This fat burning thermogenic 

capsule increases the body’s resting rate of energy expenditure.

 

4.Finally, the System includes METABOLIQ® Resist, an all-natural after-meal tablet based on an Indian

herb that temporarily blocks sugar receptors and represses sweet cravings for up to two hours.

This proprietary, rapid-dissolve tablet will help everyone to resist sweets, even those who consider

themselves to have weak willpower. Think of Resist as willpower on demand

 

The Scientific Foundation for METABOLIQ

 

The METABOLIQ System is the result of award-winning research at the University

of Illinois by Dr. Donald Layman, a metabolic expert specializing in weight loss

research. The METABOLIQ System and products were formulated using decades of

cutting-edge research demonstrating unique insight and superior understanding

of the relationship between muscle metabolism and body composition. Qivana

has partnered directly with Dr. Layman and used his expertise and the results of

his breakthrough findings to build a simple 90-day system where you can achieve

reliable, dramatic results. Qivana’s METABOLIQ System contains superior formulas,

unique products, high-quality ingredients, and a comprehensive lifestyle program

that are backed with millions of dollars of published research and human clinical trials.

 

Dr. Layman – Pioneering the Way in Metabolic Research

 

Dr. Layman is recognized internationally for his incredible research breakthroughs

and publications representing new thinking about amino acid metabolism, lean

muscle health, nutrition requirements for exercise, and new approaches to teaching

use of protein, carbohydrates, and fats in weight loss diets. Dr. Layman was the first

to uncover the specific role of the unique BCAA leucine in building lean

muscle mass and reducing body fat.

 

Dr. Layman says, “For over 35 years, I have personally researched and published

studies in the areas of sports nutrition, obesity, and diabetes and the link between

muscles and lifelong health. I am very excited to partner with Qivana to bring to

you the METABOLIQ System. Having studied the weight loss industry for years,

I am proud to finally create the only complete nutritionally-balanced program

proven to offer a healthier lifestyle and long-term weight control for everybody

at every age. The METABOLIQ System is based on my revolutionary research and

clinical discoveries. Not surprising, many other weight loss diets reference my

research as the foundation for understanding the role of protein in diets for adults.

Unfortunately, most get it wrong. For the first time ever, you can use the secrets of

my award-winning research for lifetime weight management.”

Macrobalance

–

The Foundation of the METABOLIQ System

 

Many people are caught in the diet confusion about the fear of fat, which has lead to

gross over-consumption of carbohydrates and the carbohydrate-crash cycle in the

body. In fact, Americans are told to eat 50 to 65 percent of their total calories from

carbohydrates, and they do, consuming over 350 grams of carbohydrates every

day. If you’re an elite athlete, you may be able to use 350 grams of carbohydrates

each day, but most people need less than 130 grams of daily carbs. The trouble is

that too many carbohydrates, especially the highly refined cereal grains, lead to

rapid spikes in blood sugar levels. As blood sugar spikes, insulin is rapidly released®

to quickly stabilize the sugar in your bloodstream and push the sugar into your

cells. These excess carbohydrates in the diet create more body fat, and this chain

reaction ultimately leads to fat storage and obesity. In addition, large swings in

blood sugar levels create a crash feeling and triggers feelings of tiredness, hunger,

and food cravings, usually for more carbohydrates. Eating more carbohydrates

simply restarts this cycle, causing even more fat storage. Controlling carbohydrate

intake and the resulting insulin levels are a critical part of minimizing fat storage.

Carb elimination diets are on the right track, but fail to understand the importance

of the macrobalance with protein. Some fuel from carbohydrates is an essential

part of muscle health and supporting physical activity, but carbohydrates must be

correctly balanced with protein to energize muscles while avoiding energy crashes,

food cravings, and ultimately excess fat storage. The very low carbohydrate diets that

are said to be ketogenic eliminate too many essential nutrients found in vegetables

and fruits, while conventional low-fat diets provide too many carbohydrates that

trigger the insulin carbohydrate-crash cycle that leads to fat storage.  

It’s all about getting the macrobalance right. Even more important than

minimizing fat storage by controlling carbohydrates, METABOLIQ simultaneously

maximizes fat burning by energizing and building muscle tissues with the proper

consumption of high quality proteins and essential

amino acids. Stimulating the muscles helps build and repair lean tissue and

dramatically increases calorie use, specifically burning fat stores and

ultimately changing body composition. 

 

The amazing secret behind the success of the METABOLIQ System is

understanding the proper use and balance 

of dietary protein and the role of the amino acid leucine.

The METABOLIQ System focuses on decreasing fat storage and inducing fat

burning by consuming the right proportion of healthy proteins and

SmartCarbs (carbs high in fiber) while controlling the starchy and sugary carbs at each meal.

This ideal balance of foods for fat burning is the breakthrough discovery behind

macrobalance. Through a systematic program of molecular research and clinical

trials, Dr. Layman found that each meal requires 30 grams of a precise blend of

amino acids to fully activate muscle metabolism while limiting starchy carbs to

prevent the negative impact of insulin. This macrobalance concept serves as the foundation for

the METABOLIQ System.

 

The Qivana METABOLIQ® Lifestyle incorporates the complex concepts of

macrobalance into a simple new teaching approach to healthy nutrition balance.

Users of the METABOLIQ Lifestyle learn to visualize each meal by dividing their plate

into thirds; each third represents a food group. Start with the protein portion or entree and

determine a food that will give you roughly 30 grams of protein. Equally balance a

portion of starchy carbs in the second section, and then finish off the

macrobalance on the plate with an equal portion of SmartCarbs

. In truth, you can enjoy as many SmartCarbs as you would like because the

fiber content of the SmartCarb foods will fill you up before you can eat too many calories. These

SmartCarbs are the green vegetables and high fiber fruits that provide essential nutrients and work for

you, not against you. The METABOLIQ System makes this meal planning approach

simple by providing you with the METABOLIQ® Shake, a prepared, on-the-go meal

that is ideally designed for use at breakfast and/or lunch. The METABOLIQ® Stick

can be used to supplement a meal or used alone as a healthy snack.

 

Why Protein Source Really Matters

 

Dr. Layman’s creation of the macrobalance concept reflects an entirely new

understanding about dietary proteins and the unique role of the amino acid leucine

in repairing and protecting muscles during weight loss. Dietary protein always

provides amino acids as building blocks to make new proteins in your body. But

beyond this basic purpose of protein, some of the amino acids have other roles,

and one of the most important of these for adult health is the special role of leucine in muscle. c,d,f,g.

 

Dr. Layman discovered that the amount of leucine consumed at each meal

throughout the day ultimately determines the health of your muscles and

the composition of your body. h,i. Leucine energizes your body and turns on your

muscles to their full potential. Leucine is an amazing molecule that activates your

muscles to burn calories. Dr. Layman discovered the power of leucine

while studying recovery after exercise.

 

After a hard workout or competition, athletes often use drinks that

contained electrolytes and carbohydrates for recovery. While these drinks work

well for recovery of hydration and muscle glycogen they do nothing to help your

muscles repair and regenerate. Muscles do not fully recover until you eat protein

and specifically until you get the right amount of leucine which is the metabolic

signal that tells the muscles the diet is adequate to support repair and recovery.

Dr. Layman has now applied these same principles in developing the METABOLIQ

System to energize and protect muscle and get rid of body fat. The clinically proven

formula of the macrobalance that is incorporated into the METABOLIQ products is

designed to naturally maximize loss of body fat, nourish and maintain your active

muscles, and reset and recharge your metabolism. In other words, your body shape,

mobility, and overall lean body composition will significantly improve.

While most marketers focus simply on the total amount of protein, they fail to

understand the importance of getting the critical amount of leucine and the

optimal balance of the three BCAA in each serving or meal. Proteins come from

many different sources; some are plant-derived and some are animal-derived. Each

different protein is constructed of different amounts of leucine and the BCAA.

Dr. Layman discovered that each of the BCAA have different and specific roles in

the body. Dr. Layman’s research determined that, in general, animal proteins have

a more complete balance of these BCAA and are superior to plant proteins for

stimulating and properly nourishing muscles, one of the

critical components of healthy weight loss.
