How are you, Rachael? So awesome!
I am great, man! So wonderful to see you.
You're looking awesome as always.
Thank you.
So give us the overall, the breakdown
of what the Super Metabolism Diet is
before we move forward into your examples.
Because of our typical diet,
a lot of processed foods, you know,
our metabolism is functioning at about half
of what it should be optimally,
so what the Super Metabolism Diet does
is it has three main food groups
that help you to naturally, scientifically proven,
turbocharge your metabolism so that you can
lose belly fat, you can defy--
That's the dangerous fat that surrounds our
organs, right. Yeah, the visceral fat.
It's deep down inside, it surrounds
our organs, it feeds them toxins,
and it makes you more susceptible to a lot of disease.
So it gets rid of that and basically what you're doing
is you're turning back the clock on aging.
You're looking better, you're enjoying all-day energy,
and you're losing, as you mentioned,
up to a pound a day-- Wow.
...on the Super Metabolism Diet.
So you're just taking what we all have within,
and we're optimizing it, and getting it from 50%
up to 100% by eating delicious, nutritious superfoods
that are all in nice combinations of meals.
You know, there are tons of recipes in the book,
and it helps you to look and feel and live better than ever.
(crowd applauds) Better.
So where are we starting?
Yeah, so we're starting by first
understanding these three groups.
First is super carbs.
Dude, where's my carb? Yes!
They're in the book; yes, you can eat carbs.
What's great about this is they do provide vital nutrients,
essential fibers, and they help you to stay full
and not have a roller coaster of a blood sugar level.
You gotta get carbs into your diet.
They're not a villain.
(crowd applauds)
When we talk about super carbs,
we know all of our typical, you're talking about oatmeal,
you're talking about quinoa, you're talking about,
you know, just your typical carbs.
But they're sort of ancient history because now
there are ancient grains that help these go away.
Now, what we're talking about here is teff.
When the tough gets going, the tough
turn to teff! This one I didn't know.
I'd never heard of this before.
Yeah, so this has an earthy, little bit of a nutty flavor.
When you have amaranth-- Amaranth, yeah this has--
If you wanna try this, it's--
Been around forever, but now it's very trendy again.
It's very trendy again.
There was paleo, and now we're going biblical, baby.
(Rachael laughs) These things are great.
So we got amaranth, and then we have kamut.
So if you want fat-- I love kamut.
...to go kaput, you get the kamut.
(Rachael and crowd laugh)
I do know kamut; I love this.
So what you're doing is you can make these
really great meal bowls that can totally fill you up,
so basically-- Bowls are so fun
and they're pretty to look at, and they're so trendy.
And they're fun to assemble,
so you put in some chickpeas, you put in some avocado.
Some salmon, natural good fats, right?
Yep. Very good fats.
Get those in there, you know.
Got some smoked salmon.
And this is gonna fill you up.
A little bit of a dash of mint.
You basically have this-- Ooh, I love this.
Mint, smoked salmon, chickpeas, yum, lemon?
You basically have this really great--
Avocado, also good fat.
By the way, it's not about counting calories.
It's about making your calories count.
It's about the quality of the food.
On the Super Metabolism Diet,
you're not gonna doing that, you're just...
And you're having this-- I make it look pretty
and you mush it all up! Yes.
You serve it all pretty! (crowd applauds)
You don't mush it 'til you eat it!
David. These are the super carbs.
