Challenging Conventional Wisdom: Scientist claims Common Weight Loss Advice is Wrong
SALT LAKE CITY - For decades, the prevailing wisdom around weight loss has centered on calories in, calories out, and the necessity of rigorous exercise. But a new perspective, championed by scientist Dr. Ben Bikman, argues these are among four “big lies” hindering effective and lasting weight management.Bikman contends the focus should shift from simply restricting calories to restoring the body’s metabolic balance.
Bikman, whose work centers on insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction, asserts that the customary approach overlooks the crucial role of hormones, especially insulin, in regulating fat storage.He claims that focusing solely on calories ignores the body’s complex signaling systems. “It’s not just about calories-it’s about restoring your body’s metabolic balance,” he said. His company, HLTH code, offers a program designed to “reset those signals so your body burns fat instead of storing it.”
According to Bikman, the four key misconceptions are: that calories are king, that all calories are created equal, that more exercise is always better, and that fat is bad. he argues that a diet prioritizing whole foods and minimizing refined carbohydrates is essential for optimizing metabolic health.
“The science is clear,” Bikman says. “When you give your body the right nutrition, everything changes – energy, immunity, brain function, appearance, and yes, weight loss.”
HLTH Code offers a full satisfaction guarantee for those skeptical of the approach.
“You have nothing to lose but the extra pounds – and everything to gain in health, confidence, and vitality,” Bikman stated.
