It takes only 15 minutes a day, and there's no dieting! Greer Childers shows how to lose inches from your waist, hips, and thighs in the very first week. Using the revolutionary BodyFlex program, readers can tone away flab and increase energy through accelerated aerobic deep breathing with stretching, isometric, and isotonic exercises.A bestseller in hardcover, with over 100,000 copies shipped, Be a Loser! describes the BodyFlex program, includes specialized workouts for problem areas with clearly illustrated instructions on technique, and explains the scientific basis for the program. Bubbling over with the homespun enthusiasm, humor, and can-do optimism of its irrepressible author, Be a Loser! is an easy and fun way to get in shape and increase vitality. Greer Childers, age 53 and mother of three, credits her BodyFlex method with dropping her from a size 14/16 to a size 4/6 in 90 days. Childers had tried jogging, aerobics, and personal trainers; she got firmer but no smaller, and felt tired all the time. "In terms of being a couch potato, I was definitely mashed," she writes. Then she discovered what she calls "aerobic breathing" and claims she started burning off inches. Fitness and weight-loss experts would argue that aerobic exercise--not just breathing--is what burns fat, but Childers insists the method has worked for her and her clients. Be a Loser presents Childers's own story about trying to lose weight and her theory about weight loss--that oxygen is "the non-medical miracle" and that learning how to breathe "aerobically" is her secret for weight loss. She teaches her breathing technique and a series of simple stretches and nonstrenuous calisthenic exercises that she claims "tone muscle."

The Science of Weight Loss (SOWL) covers the modern day causes of gaining excess weight and not being able to lose it regardless of diet and exercise. In todays world there are numerous toxic exposures in our food system and environment along with denatured processed foods that do more harm that good that are damaging the Gut. Many of the toxins people are exposed to are endocrine disruptors that now have a name: obesogens. Obesogens are hormone-like chemicals that literally instruct the body to gain weight. The premise of SOWL is to address weight issues, not as a pound for pound issue, but a medical issue and to heal the damage that food chemicals, incorrect diet and environmental toxic exposures have done to the upper and lower (bowel) intestines. It also teaches the reader how to remove the harmful bacteria in their gut and replace it with a diverse rainforest of beneficial bacteria that serves the immune system, energy, weight loss, excellent digestion and production of vitamins that serve all those processes. Inflammation from Biotoxin Illness and the dangers of denatured, processed and chemically adulterated food, is explained extensively in SOWL. Endotoxins are produced in a toxic colon that go into the blood and trigger the inflammation response causing leptin and insulin resistance. LPS is connected to false hunger but also many diseases beyond all of those of the gut such as IBS, Crohn’s, diverticulitis, SIBO, Gut Dysbiosis and Toxic Gut Syndrome associated with many mental health issues via the Gut / Brain axis. The four key healing strategies for the causes of the epidemic obesity and overweight issues people around the world people are suffering are covered in the SOWL first in educational format and then a healing strategy is provided which includes optional laboratory testing, corrective nutritional supplementation, a three phase organic diet based on the common layers of GAP, FODMAP, and SIBO diets, and a detailed day to day ferment...
