Overview

“At last! Jade and Keoni not only blast the myth of aerobic exercise for fat loss but give you the science to understand the right way to eat and exercise to turn your body into a fat burning machine.” — J. J. Virgin, nutritionist to Dr. Phil and author of The Art of Losing It

The Metabolic Effect Diet is the revolutionary fitness program that enables you to build muscle and lose weight by working out less! . Now you can eat more, work out less, and actually lose weight while you rest.

Holistic physicians, biochemists, and personal trainers Jade Teta and Keoni Teta have created a diet and exercise program that jump-starts your stalled metabolism:

  • Create a personalized diet plan that supports your best hormonal balance and turns you into a fat burner.
  • Fight hunger and cravings with five to six meals a day and a Reward Meal each week.
  • Perform rest-based weight-training exercises (hybrids) requiring only a pair of light weights and three thirty-minute sessions per week—and burn fat even while you rest!

Stop counting calories and start losing weight now. More than ten thousand people have learned to lose weight smarter by not working harder with The Metabolic Effect Diet, and now you can too.
