Interview with Raymond Francis: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

We’re trying something new. First we will podcast our show in it’s entirety then we’ll release just the guest interviews during the week. So please click POD to listen to Dr. Fitness and the Fat Guy learn all about how to Never Be Fat Again and Never Be Sick Again from Raymond Francis, founder of Beyond Health. Raymond is an M.I.T.-trained scientist and an expert in supplement chemistry. He has been called “one the few scientists to achieve a breakthrough understanding of health and disease.” And that endorsement wasn’t given to him by his good friend actor, Rob Schneider.I don’t know how Raymond did this, but Rob Schneider went on the Jimmy Kimmel show and basically did an infomercial for Raymond’s philosophy and books. You have to check it out on his website.

Raymond has created an interesting model of health that addresses the causes of disease rather than treating its symptoms. When you address the causes, he says the problems disappear. He believes there is only ONE DISEASE and only TWO CAUSES of disease. He wouldn’t tell us what they were but he said his website could give us a lot of good information about it.

The health information on his website and in his books Never Be Sick Again and Never Be Fat Again as well as his newsletter Beyond Health News is designed to inform you of health choices that will empower you to choose health, helping you to get well, stay well and never be sick again. During the interview he gave us great tips like eat fresh fruits and veggies, don’t eat processed foods, use high quality supplementation and make sure you get enough calcium. He also mentioned that because the soil contains much less minerals and nutrients you have to eat a lot more vegetables and fruits to get the same level of nutrition as you would have 50 years ago. So he thinks supplements are the way to go. Please check out his website www.beyondhealth.com for more information.

As always, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy Radio Show has more laughs, more info and more fun than any other health, fitness, weight loss podcast out there.

On tonight’s show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy learn how to Never Be Fat Again and Never Be Sick Again from Raymond Francis, founder of Beyond Health.

We started the show and we ended the show with Danielle Tiano and Karen Child. They flew all the way from Southern California to meet with us live int he studio. They are the creators of the Temptation of a Generation series of books. While this may seem off topic for us, Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy are both parents who care deeply about protecting children from unnecessary harm and that’s exactly what these two brilliant ladies do.

The Temptation of a Generation series is the first children’s series to tackle the tough issues today’s kids face in the information age. The series addresses pre-teen and adolescent issues such as self-image, technology addiction, relationships and more. With beautifully detailed illustrations, the books create a visual experience and teach important life lessons that will serve children well into adulthood.

Both Danielle and Karen have a passion to protect, educate and entertain children and they believe that the best way to do that is through the parents.

Their books begin by encouraging young readers to think about what effect technology has on their lives, specifically the activities and relationships they miss out on by focusing on the Internet and other electronics. The first in the series, Temptation of a Generation, explains the stages of Internet addiction and how the pornographic industry targets children as young as 8-years old.

Many families do not know how to open the forbidden lines of communication regarding sex and pornography, yet it needs to be addressed in every home…their books are the tool to do so. Some parents want to have “the talk” but don’t know how; others are too busy or naive thinking that problems will never find their child. After introducing the tough topic to your child, Danielle and Karen provide questions to facilitate a discussion and a worksheet to help develop Internet boundaries for your home. This series of books is a must have for every parent of kids who are online. Please go to their websites and get more information and buy their books. www.temptationofageneration.com, www.beyondyourwords.com, www.karenchildmft.com and www.lifestarsocal.com. They have a newsletter and they are available to help you help your kids.

We also had on Minda Burr, author of The Art of Fun and The Power of Play Workbook. Minda shared her experiences helping people regain their sense of fun. She does exciting workshops on the Art of Fun and uses her background as a drama coach to get her clients to loosen up, let their hair down and wake up their inner child. Please check out her website www.mindaburr.com for more information about her book and to see if there is a workshop coming to your city. BTW she designs the most amazing jewelry, you can see some of it on her website as well.

Next we had on Michelle Bersell, author of the book Emotional Abundance: Become Empowered. This book has been called an owners manual to your emotions. Michelle is a psychotherapist and life coach who teaches us how to honor our authentic selves and utilize our emotional process to reveal the direction that will support us to live our best life.

She believes that most of us have been going about our lives getting by with what we feel we can handle. Our lives do not feel balanced because they are so full. There is so much that we must be responsible for that our days feel dictated by those demands. When we are living like this, she call it “survival mode.”

Survival mode is living our life based on what we need to do to get by each day and fulfilling the demands placed on us.

Unfortunately, when we are in survival mode, we feel depleted and run down, which means we are not truly living. this is where we are susceptible to being overweight. If you are struggling with your weight Michelle says “Don’t be a victim to your weight” Instead of “shoulding” yourself with put downs try focusing on what is going to best serve you. Are you really willing to honor yourself? For more information please go to Michelle’s website www.michellebersell.com. You can order her book at www.emotionalabundance.com. Sign up for newsletter, one of her retreats and why not some private coaching. Also check out her MentalityGal column in CitiGal magazine.

Last Week’s show was filled with lots of great information and great guests. We had Jump Snap inventor, Brad LaTour who lost 50 pounds doing of all things….jumping rope…well, sort of. If you want all the benefits of jumping rope but are too uncoordinated to do it properly like the Fat Guy, you have to check this product out. Jump Snap is a ropeless jump rope. It has handles with a short rope and ball attached. You hold the handles and go through the motions of jumping rope. But there is no actual rope the Jump Snap has a speaker that makes the sound of the rope swinging and it keeps track of calories burned, how many repetitions you done and it even talks to you. How cool is that? The Fat Guy thought it was a martial arts weapon at first. Please go to Brad’s website www.jumpsnap.com and check it out. The best thing about it is that you can take it anywhere!!!! Great for kids….Great for Adults and even celebrities like Hilary Swank!!!

We also had on Raymond Francis, author of “Never Be Sick Again” and his brand new book “Never Be Fat Again”. Raymond had a spirited discussion about the steps needed to lose weight and keep it off permanently. He was very passionate and almost convinced the Fat Guy that he should lay off processed food. Dr Fitness loved his message and strongly suggested checking out his books. Raymond also does a lot of work trying to help children and the alarming childhood obesity and health crisis in this country. Please go to Raymond’s website www.beyondhealth.com for great information including a couple of real powerful free reports called “The Roadmap to Ultimate Health” and “The Roadmap to Supplements” And for more information about his non-profit group that helps children learn the basics of good health please go to www.healtheamerica.org

I had some fitness tips in my latest installment of …Dr Fitness’ “Things You Can Do Today” To Get Ready For Your First Spinning Class Tomorrow. Here are a few of Dr. Fitness’ secrets about the things you should do to see if spinning is for you. Number 1, check out the spinning class before you start - make sure you like the instructor - in group exercise classes the instructor is critical. Number 2, check out the equipment - make sure your gym has good solid equipment - you don’t want the bike to be falling apart mid-ride. And Number 3, when you get on the bike make sure you have the seat at the right height - a good spin instructor will come over to make sure you are on right.

Don’t forget about tonite’s show live at 7 PM Eastern when we talk “Ballroom Dancing” to Chuck Cuthbert from the Atlanta Ballroom Dance Centre, we talk Tennis to Tennis Teaching Legend, Oscar Wegner, and we talk fitness with the lovely Jennifer Nicole Lee and we talk about her new book “Cracking the Code: Unlock Your Fat Burning and Weight Loss Potential.

He had a few more tips but since I’ve never been anywhere near a spinning class I kind of lost interest but you’ll have to listen to get them.

Kathie Larkin was in the house and she was fired up about landing a big part in a movie that is being filmed here in Atlanta. She told us all about it. You know Kathie as the host of Real Savvy Moms.  Real Savvy Moms is a great show for moms that is available on most Public Broadcasting Stations around the US and online. Remember Kathie is one of the top feet and legs model’s out there… she is so hot she got to be a body double for Alyssa Milano a few weeks ago. Be sure to check out Kathie’s website www.getkathie.com. Also check out her hosting skills on www.RealSavvyMoms.com.

Remember we are now on Michigan radio station WKNW this day. They asked us to create a Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy “Wellness Minute.” So now a new Wellness Minute runs on that station each day. Each Wellness Minute features the doctor and I going over 5 of his best tips on a given wellness subject like: losing weight, getting in shape, living a healthy lifestyle, etc. We’re working on ways to make those tips available to all our listeners. If you have a favorite radio station that you think would benefit from our Wellness Minutes send them an email telling them about it and who knows maybe you can hear us everyday too.

Also once again, I need you to please do me a favor. My nine year kid Max made his radio debut in his new show “Kid Power Radio.” This is a great show for your kids. It is kind of like a kids version of David Spade’s “Showbiz Show” on Comedy Central or Entertainment Tonight. Max recaps the week in entertainment and gives his take and review of what he liked and didn’t like on TV, at the movies, video games, in books and in music and even restaurant reviews. Please go to his site and download the show for your kid. And if your kid sends Max an email he’ll read it on the air next week. The show can be found at www.kidpowerradio.com and you can email Max at RadioStarMax at Yahoo.com. Your encouragement is greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!
