			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Why all whey protein powders are <span style="text-decoration: underline;">NOT</span> created equal.</strong></h2>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Pardon our strong language, but we’ve got something to get off of our chest about the supplement industry.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>MOST</strong></span> supplements are pure junk. First of all, supplements are NOT the answer to a real fat burning lifestyle. Unfortunately, this also makes us “good guys” look bad.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Today we have some <span style="text-decoration: underline;">VERY</span> important facts about Whey Protein Powders. But, before we talk about why <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>your Whey Protein could be toxic</strong></span>, let’s set the record straight.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>NOTHING is better than REAL food. </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">If you have time to cook all your food ahead of time and you have access to a consistent supply of lean and healthy proteins, carbs, fruits, oils and veggies, then you probably do NOT need that much supplementation.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">However, supplements <span style="text-decoration: underline;">can</span> be your friend <strong>when you don’t have time for real food or when you need convenience in today’s busy world.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">The majority of the supplements that we recommend are really just replacing food. While there is up front cost, you are actually save a lot of money over the course of your journey by <strong>dramatically decreasing your grocery expenses.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">PLUS, it’s not nearly as expensive as going through a drive through fast food joint or eating out. On top of all this, if your supplements actually come from a high quality source, <strong>they’ll actually have more vitamins and nutrients than most convenient foods. </strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>But <span style="text-decoration: underline;">you have to know the source of the manufacturing so you’re not being misled and ripped off. </span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Quality</span> supplements</strong> ultimately are a tool to be used as a “supplement” to your normal healthy eating.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">So they really do serve a few important purposes. Let’s cover a few of them really quick <span style="text-decoration: underline;">before we share the shocking news about your whey protein powder:</span></span></p>
<ol> <span style="font-size: medium;"></p>
<li>They can help <strong>fill in the missing gap</strong> of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that you may be deficient of because of today’s poor food quality. (i.e. Research shows 1 cup of spinach from 1953 had <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>17 times more vitamins and minerals</strong></span> than 1 cup of spinach from today’s grocery stores.)</li>
<li>Vitamins and Healthy Oils are great supplements to use when you’re not getting the fruits, vegetables, and healthy oils in your plan on a consistent basis.</li>
<li>Things like whey protein powder can be a great way to help you<span style="text-decoration: underline;"> replace a meal when you’re on the go or in a hurry</span>.</li>
<li>They can help you <span style="text-decoration: underline;">cut down on hidden calories</span> from regular convenience or restaurant foods AND save you a lot of money over the long haul.</li>
<li>They are really a MUCH better choice than all the so-called healthy diet foods on the market. <strong>These foods contain nasty chemicals and fillers that actually turn off your body’s fat burning triggers.</strong></li>
<p></span></ol>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Hopefully this gives you a realistic viewpoint on long-term quality supplementation and the small (but important) role it can play in your fat loss plan. Again, the key word is <strong>“quality”</strong>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">For example:</span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">Do you really know what’s in <span style="text-decoration: underline;">YOUR</span> whey protein powder?</h2>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"> Even though big companies will entice you with fitness models and celebrities in their marketing and advertising, how do you know you can trust the source?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Make sure your supplements come   from a trusted advisor and make sure they have a “GMP” label on their bottle. This will also give you the comfort of knowing they have “Good Manufacturing Practices”.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">This will ensure that what’s on the label is actually IN the bottle.</span></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Next, get educated on what’s in the bottle that you may <strong>not</strong> even know about.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">For example, we’ve talked over and over again about the dangers of heavy metals and toxins in our environment, but <strong>who would have EVER thought these dangerous chemicals could be right inside whey protein powders?</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Here is a short video (that’s slightly exaggerated in our opinion) explaining the potential risks of the most commonly consumed protein powders.</span></span></p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="324" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="flashvars" value="linkUrl=http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=6537330n&amp;tag=related;photovideo&amp;releaseURL=http://cnettv.cnet.com/av/video/cbsnews/atlantis2/player-dest.swf&amp;videoId=50088366,50088805,50088803,50088801,50088800,50088799,50088798&amp;partner=news&amp;vert=News&amp;si=254&amp;autoPlayVid=false&amp;name=cbsPlayer&amp;allowScriptAccess=always&amp;wmode=transparent&amp;embedded=y&amp;scale=noscale&amp;rv=n&amp;salign=tl" /><param name="src" value="http://cnettv.cnet.com/av/video/cbsnews/atlantis2/player-dest.swf" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="324" src="http://cnettv.cnet.com/av/video/cbsnews/atlantis2/player-dest.swf" allowfullscreen="true" flashvars="linkUrl=http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=6537330n&amp;tag=related;photovideo&amp;releaseURL=http://cnettv.cnet.com/av/video/cbsnews/atlantis2/player-dest.swf&amp;videoId=50088366,50088805,50088803,50088801,50088800,50088799,50088798&amp;partner=news&amp;vert=News&amp;si=254&amp;autoPlayVid=false&amp;name=cbsPlayer&amp;allowScriptAccess=always&amp;wmode=transparent&amp;embedded=y&amp;scale=noscale&amp;rv=n&amp;salign=tl"></embed></object></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="http://www.cbsnews.com"></a>This investigation, including tests at an outside laboratory of 15 protein drinks, a review of government documents, and interviews with health and fitness experts and consumers, found that <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>some whey protein drinks</strong> can pose the risk to exposure to potentially harmful heavy metals, if consumed frequently.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">All drinks in this test had at least one sample containing one or more of the following contaminants: <strong>arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury.</strong> <span style="text-decoration: underline;">These metals can have toxic effects on several organs in the body.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">IMPORTANT NOTE:</span></strong></span></span><span style="font-size: medium;"><br />
The level of metals and toxins found in these whey protein powders<span style="text-decoration: underline;"> isn’t nearly as high</span> as a lot of our non-organic fresh fish, poultry, beef, and even fruits and vegetables.</span></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: medium;">But this is still a valid concern.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><strong>Plus, it’s our job here at GL-12 as your personal “watch-dogs” and expert fat loss advisors to keep you informed and educated.</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">That’s exactly why we put together this<span style="text-decoration: underline;"> <strong>Special Premium Report</strong> about Whey Protein Powder</span> for you to read so you don’t have to worry about HOW to consume protein powder for the rest of you life.</span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Read This Special Report Below Right Now So You Can Get Educated And Start Focusing On The Important Stuff…<span style="text-decoration: underline;">Burning Fat!</span></strong></h2>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"> Several whey protein drinks and mixes available today are primarily comprised of carbohydrates and have hidden sugars and potential toxins.  When these protein drink mixes are combined with the amount of milk suggested in the mixing instructions, the percentage and quality of the protein increases greatly. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">This process allows the protein manufacturers to deceptively label these products.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Always keep in mind that in order for a protein’s amino acids to be available for the body&#8217;s cells, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">the protein must be fully digested.</span> As the the volume of consumed protein increases, the body&#8217;s ability to adsorb it is decreased and more energy is required to properly digest it, thus the <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">longer</span> </strong>it will take for the amino acids to become available to the body tissues.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Generally when food is digested, it takes approximately four to five hours for the nutrients to leave the small intestine and move to the target areas (i.e., amino pools, body tissues, etc.) where the amino acids are most needed.  With a high quality anabolic drink mix, however, this process should only require one hour.</span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">Introducing Get Lean In 12 Pharmaceutical Quality Whey Protein Powder</h2>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"> This is the <span style="text-decoration: underline;">same exact protein powder that Wendy approved and endorsed</span> for us to share with you before she gave us a global license and we created Get Lean In 12 together.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Admittedly, there are hundreds of less expensive protein powders on the market &#8212; and all over the web.</span></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: medium;">They are, however, usually inferior</span></span><span style="font-size: medium;"> — from raw ingredients to the manufacturing process. We make no apologies for our unwillingness to compromise.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">This is a super high quality optimal protein scientifically engineered for fat loss and fitness enthusiasts who want maximum absorption and <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">a whey protein powder that does exactly what it’s supposed to do.</span></strong></span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Superior Formulation</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;"> </span></p>
<ul> <span style="font-size: medium;"></p>
<li>This Whey Protein Formula starts with a proprietary blend of pure, premium quality, partially pre-digested (hydrolyzed) and micro-filtered whey protein isolate and concentrate.</li>
<p></span></ul>
<ul> <span style="font-size: medium;"></p>
<li>These superior proteins have been carefully processed through a series of refined, ultrasensitive filtration procedures.</li>
<p></span></ul>
<ul> <span style="font-size: medium;"></p>
<li><strong>The formula calls for a low-temperature process in order to maintain and provide a full spectrum of intact bioactive peptides</strong> (beta-lactoglobulin,   alphalactabumin, glycomacropeptides, immunoglobulins, bovine serum and lactoferrin) to help promote maximum lean tissue preservation and fat loss.</li>
<p></span></ul>
<ul> <span style="font-size: medium;"></p>
<li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">This low-temperature process is specifically designed for superior absorption and typically not found with <strong>over-the-counter whey protein products.</strong></span></li>
<p></span></ul>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Nothing </span></span><span style="font-size: medium;">was spared in the development of this formula. It is nothing short of <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">extraordinary</span></strong>.</span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">PURE PHARMECEUTICAL GRADE<br />
WHEY PROTEIN Powder<br />

<h3 style="text-align: center;">A look into the Dark Side of Soy Diets and some of the possible dangers and negative impact of eating too much soy!</h3>
<p>You may be shocked after you read this article to find out that soy is actually NOT a healthy food choice.</p>
<p>Ever since my wife Karen battled cancer a couple years ago, I’ve become extremely educated and passionate about exposing the hidden poisons and toxins in so-called “healthy foods”. Most people have been deceived and mislead by billions of dollars of advertising that soy diets are &#8220;healthy&#8221;.</p>
<p>The truth is that soy diets have many negative factors on the body that we should be concerned about.  In fact, there is even evidence that soy foods and soy diets could possibly even make you STORE MORE FAT.</p>
<p>Small amounts of soy are ok, but try to eliminate most forms of soy. This includes soybean oil, which is in almost all processed foods, commercial salad dressings and a ton of other big-industry foods.</p>
<p>It’s amazing what marketing has done to make people all over the world believe that soy diets and unfermented soy foods like soy milk and soy protein are somehow &#8220;health foods&#8221;.</p>
<p>I’m not claiming to be an expert on soy, but I have learned from a few people who are experts on the subject and what I uncovered could be the answer to why you’re not getting the fat loss results you desire.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone" title="Soy and fat people" src="http://www.getleanin12.com/pictures/soy2.jpg" alt="soy2 Are Soybean Based Foods REALLY Good For You?  Or are Soy Diets Actually Making You Fat and Causing More Harm Than Good?" width="641" height="194" /></p>
<p>I’m not going to go into great scientific detail or cite a bunch of studies, but I want to give you some quick examples of why Soy diets could actually be making you fat and hurting your health.</p>
<p><strong>I encourage you to do your own research if you question any of these quick soy diet facts.</strong></p>
<ul>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;"><strong>Soy contains some of the highest percentages of contamination by pesticides of any of our foods.</strong></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;"><strong>People who substitute tofu or bean curd for meat can get severe mineral deficiencies.<br />
</strong></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;"><strong>Soy Protein Isolate is an Industrially Produced Food which means it’s far from Natural or Healthy.<br />
</strong></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;"><strong>Soy Protein Isolate used to be considered a waste product before they discovered they could make money promoting it as health food!<br />
</strong></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;"><strong>Soy contains substances that depress thyroid function.<br />
</strong></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;"><strong>A very large percentage of soy is genetically modified and   contains unhealthy GMOs.<br />
</strong></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;"><strong>Soy Milk is NOT healthy for you.<br />
</strong></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;"><strong>Soy isoflavones actually could be toxic.<br />
</strong></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;"><strong>Most experts now place soy protein among the top eight allergens of all foods.<br />
</strong></li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;"><strong>Soy has been shown to raise bad estrogen levels in both women and men.</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>So, how could ALL the facts above possibly be true?</strong></p>
<p>Here are just a few examples.</p>
<ol>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;">The competition (meat, milk, cheese, butter and eggs) has been demonized by the appropriate government bodies. Soy serves as meat and milk for hundreds of thousands of vegetarians. Not that these industries don’t have their own weaknesses and downfalls, but it just goes to prove the natural, unethical behavior of big food industries.</li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;">The soy industry hired gigantic public relations firms to get more soy products into schools and on their menus. The USDA responded with a proposal to scrap the 30% limit for soy in school lunches.<br />
The &#8216;NuMenu&#8217; program would allow unlimited use of soy in student meals. By adding soy to meats like hamburgers, tacos, and a bunch of other foods, dieticians can get the total fat content below 30% of the calories so they could meet government guidelines.</li>
<li style="padding-bottom: 15px;"> Soy milk (which is loaded with hidden sugars and a bunch of other unhealthy side effects) has posted the biggest gains, soaring from $2 million in 1980 to $300 million in the US last year.  Recent advances in processing have transformed the soy diet beverage into a product that anybody will drink because it tastes sweet, like a fast-food milk shake.</li>
</ol>
<p>This is just a sample of the power the food industry has to manipulate the masses. The media has finally started to question soy and started exposing some of its hidden dangers.</p>
<p><strong>People are finally starting to learn that soy is NOT a miracle health food, and more and more expert scientists are issuing warnings about soy.</strong></p>
<p>I hope this article has raised your level of awareness of the negative impact soy diets can have on your long-term health.</p>
<p>I also hope you consider reducing or eliminating your consumption of soy foods, soymilk, or soy protein. A great way to do this is to use things like organic, free-range poultry and eggs. <a href="http://www.grasslandbeef.com/StoreFront.bok?affId=90786" target="_blank">Grass fed beef</a> is also great health alternative to soy diets.</p>
<p>Until next time,<br />
