Scientific Study Confirms Weight Loss Via âDigestive Meditationâ
With obesity on the rise andÂ absurd diets swarmingÂ the market like wildfire,Â health and wellness specialist Dr. Mark Wildstein and neurologist Dr. Shawn Plutchetzky, conducted a studyÂ to see if the brain was powerful enough to control weight loss and weight distribution merely by concentration and will-power. The results of the test, released in the Boston Medical Journal on July 30th, were astoundingâThe brain is the most complex organ in the human body. It controls sight, smell, taste, hearing, and physical movement,â said Wildstein. âIt gives us the power to imagine, to think, and to act.Â Everyone thought what we were doing was a joke. We firmly believe in the power of the mind, and now we have a study that shows just how right we are.âThe study wasÂ conductedÂ over the course of six months with two separate groups of 30 subjects. The first groupÂ consisted of females, between 130-133 lbs. Half of the women were in a controlled environment where they sleptÂ 8 hours per day, exercisedÂ equally atÂ zero to low intensity, andÂ were fed 3 times per day. The other half of the group was not in a controlled environment, and asked to maintain their regular eating, sleeping,Â and exercise habits. For some participants this constituted zero physical activity, as they were asked to continue life as normal. The second study of 3o subjects was conducted in the same manner, but with male participants between 170-173 lbs.Â âWe did our research andÂ carefully chose 60Â subjects to take part in our study.Â Our goal was to achieve a group of individuals that was near identical, in terms ofÂ eatingÂ and exercise habits, sleep patterns,Â and so forth.Â We had to eliminate allÂ variables possible.âThe subjects were educated on how the brain and body function prior to the study. EachÂ subject was directed to participate in âdigestive meditationâ by lying down after each mealÂ to thinkÂ about the food they just ate, and visualizing how their body was digesting it. Wildstein and Plutchetzky believe that by relivingÂ each bite in the imaginationÂ and thinking aboutÂ how the foodÂ is being broken down inside the body, it allows the brain to control where it storesÂ fat and nutrients, if at all.Â The subjects focused Â all of their energy on where theyâd like the fat fromÂ each particular meal to gather on their bodies, or if they wanted it to at all. Most participants, they said, chose to just âflush the fatâ from their bodies.âI lost weight in my mid-section and I gained a cup size!â said Kim Sherbert, who was amazed at what happened to her body over the course of the study. âMy husband and I are unbelievably happy. And I canât wait to show off my new body at the beach. Just in time for the end of summer! I just couldnât believe it was as easy as it was.ââIâm Brazilian, but I always had a tiny butt, and I was very self-conscious of it,â said Bianca Souza, another test subject. âThroughout the study, I noticed my butt was beginning to fill out and become more round. My waist stayed tiny. Iâm just in complete awe. The hardest part was not falling asleep during the digestive meditation. But I worked really hard at thinking about it, and Iâm proof that applying yourself pays off! Iâm so thankful to them!âAccording to Wildstein, all but two of the subjects achievedÂ their desired body goals.âThe study was a major success, and overall seems to prove the Doctorâs dietary motto of âIf you think it, you can achieve it,ââ said Wildstein. âWe are extremely pleased with how everything turned out, and I think our subjects are, too!ââWe wanted to prove the brain could control weight loss, and distribution, without any physical or dietaryÂ influence,â says Plutchetzky. âI believe, without a doubt, that we accomplished this.â
