Slender GR

Unique support for the dieter and “non-dieter”

Each single capsule dose contains powerful ingredients for an all natural, stimulant-free approach to healthy weight management.*

The synergy of ingredients in Slender GR can promote an increase in fat metabolism, help maintain normal blood sugar levels and reduce oxidative stress that so often accompanies weight loss. Each dose of Slender GR contains powerful, proven ingredients for an all-natural, stimulant-free approach to healthy weight management. Slender GR and the enzyme blend Glucoreductase are featured in Eat for Life – The Ultimate Weight-Loss Breakthrough (Harvey Diamond).

Recommended Usage: Take 1 Slender GR capsule 15 minutes before each meal. 2 capsules may be taken with larger meals or meals containing starch (pasta, bread or similar). 1-2 capsules may also be taken with a high calorie food or beverage. Daily dosage 3-6 capsules.

Triple Action Formula

All Natural, Stimulant-free, Triple action formula

– Optimizes sugar and fat metabolism

- Encourages a Lower Glycemic Index

- Supports healthy detoxification

Optimizes sugar and fat metabolism*

Slender GR  includes a proprietary enzyme blend called Glucoreductase which has been shown to optimize sugar metabolism and help maintain normal blood sugar levelsi. Slender GRTM also includes a lipase Thera-blend to improve the proper metabolism of fat. A deficiency in the natural production of lipase may adversely affect the digestive system’s ability to properly digest fat, impacting lipid metabolism and ultimately body fat levelsii.

Encourages a lower glycemic index

With carb-friendly ingredients, Slender GR supports healthy metabolism of carbohydrate rich foods to maintain normal blood sugar levels and encourage weight loss. The proprietary enzyme blend Glucoreductase converts starches to form soluble fiber. This conversion of carbohydrates decreases the glycemic index of the foods consumed and promotes healthy digestion.

Supports healthy detoxification

The Gluten-free Rice Bran and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) in Slender GR may promote healthy detoxification, encouraging a comfortable and mild cleanse.

Rice Bran: Walter Crinnion, a practicing Naturopathic physician and reviewer for the New England Journal of Medicine reminds us, “Elevated levels of fat-soluble toxins have been associated with weight gain.  Rice bran will help increase the amount of toxins we eliminate.  The more toxins you encourage to leave your body, the easier it will be for your organs of elimination to do their job, and for your metabolism to burn stored fat for fuel.” An additional benefit of the Rice Bran is that it helps establish and feeling of “satiety,” therefore promoting reduced meal portions.

Dear Harvey,

I just finished reading your book Fit for Life and have been following  the regiment for just 2 weeks now but plan to live my life like this from now on. I always ate healthy and have been an athlete from a young age. In December 2010, I developed intestinal problems quite suddenly. After a week of constipation, doctors in Athens where I stayed gave me the strongest laxatives they had and eventually admitted me to the hospital. They were unsuccessful in helping me and I left the hospital. The only thing that gets my intestines working is a herbal remedy called Herabalene, which you take orally. I have seen many gastro-enterologists and holistic doctors since then, in the US as well as Athens, but they haven’t found anything medically wrong with me. I take the Herbalene every three or four days in order to function but this has gotten quite tiring and frustrating, especially because I’m such a health freak. I never ate fried food, I don’t drink sodas, I’ve never smoked, I don’t drink ANY alcohol and I love fruits and vegetables. I was wondering if you think that in time, through following the Fit for Life program, it will correct itself and I will stop having a “sleepy intestine”. Have you had any other people consult you with similar problems that have been helped by Fit For Life? Any information would be greatly appreciated and thank you for publishing such a great book. Best regards,

GB

Hi GB

Like any other malady of the human body, the best chance of improvement or recovery lies in cleansing and strengthening the body’s own healing mechanism through proper diet.  Your diet sounds to be excellent so it’s possible that you are dealing with some type of physiological obstruction.  However since you have been to gastroenterologists who have been unable to diagnose anything that may not be the case.  In the past when I have been confronted with similar situations such as yours, if the person went on 72 hours of ONLY fresh fruit and vegetable juices, followed by one week of ONLY raw food, the problem was dramatically improved and by doing a series of such a regimen over time even corrected itself.

I think you would receive a lot of good information and help from one of my other books called FIT FOR LIFE: A New Beginning. If you read the book pay special attention to the sections on The Lymph System and Periodic Mono-Dieting as they are the path to cleansing and strengthening the body. The book is in paperback and is available online. You also might want to consider taking digestive enzymes whenever having cooked food to further assist your body. In your case I think this would be extremely important. Personally I never, under any circumstances, eat anything cooked without them.  The difference in the way I feel is significant.  If you are interested, here are the ones I take. I discuss digestive enzymes at length in A New Beginning.

All the best,

Harvey

Please let me know if [...]]]> Hello, just have one question regarding Fit for Life. I´ve been eating this way for 15 years, and I just feel incredible.

Hi JR,

“The one exception to all of this is, of course, when breakfast consists of the one food in existence that does not require any digestive energy in the stomach and therefore does not hinder the elimination cycle in any way. It passes through the stomach [...]]]>

The following is a brief section of Living Without Pain:

“The one exception to all of this is, of course, when breakfast consists of the one food in existence that does not require any digestive energy in the stomach and therefore does not hinder the elimination cycle in any way. It passes through the stomach relatively quickly and is broken down in the intestines, where it does indeed turn into available energy in less than an hour. The food to which I am referring is……fruit. Unlike any other food you eat, no matter what it is, fruit fruit requires no digestion in the stomach and so therefore does not hinder the elimination cycle.

Let me be crystal clear here so there is no doubt about what I am recommending. From the time you awaken in the morning until at least 12 noon, you eat absolutely nothing other than fruit. Not a single bite of toast. Not a teaspoon of cottage cheese. Nothing but fruit, fruit salad, fruit juice, or fruit smoothies. As much as you desire. Some people can have a glass of orange juice and a banana and not want anything more until lunchtime. Others want to have grapes or a peach or an apple every hour. No problem. You can have as much or as little as it takes to see you through until noon. And don’t forget, whatever you have must be fresh and unpasteurized, or else the purpose is defeated.”

Hi GP,

I wish I could be more definitive in [...]]]> What types of fruit and vegetable juices can a someone who is an insulin dependent diabetic take ?
Can tetrapack 100% juices (with no additves, sugar/preservatives) available at the market be taken in lieu of fresh juices?

Regards and Thank you, -GP

Hi GP,

I wish I could be more definitive in giving advice to you regarding eating fruit or juice in conjunction with a diabetic condition. Of all the maladies that can occur in human beings, diabetes is without a doubt the most troublesome and challenging due to the numerous unknown variables that can come into play with this condition for each individual.  What I can tell you is this:  some people with diabetes have done very well following the FIT FOR LIFE recommendations, including the eating of fruit and drinking of juice (correctly of course), and others have not.  I wish I knew the answer to why that is but I don’t.  All you can do is follow the recommendations while keeping a close eye on your condition and see which category you are in.  I wish I had something more to offer but diabetes has been a great enigma for me and the scientific community for decades. As much as I would like to, it is nearly impossible to give a recommendation as to how much fruit you should eat without very close monitoring, which I am obviously not able to do, so it will have to fall on the shoulders of your health care provider.   I have noticed that those with Type II have a much easier time of it when it comes to eating fruit—correctly of course. But even those with Type I have had some success.

All the best, Harvey
