of Americans.
As a factor that has previously been under-recognized by
patients and physicians, Insulin Resistance is an important
precursor to the epidemics of diabetes and cardiovascular
disease.

Permanente and Exempla Health Care in Colorado and has been
a family practitioner for 27 years. He is also certified
in Occupational Medicine and Acupuncture for pain control.
He received his M.D. at the University of Michigan and was

What
I find compelling about the Insulite Systems is how comprehensive
they are in dealing with what I believe will be shown to
be a major cause of many degenerative diseases – the
inappropriate build up of insulin in the blood. The many
well researched ingredients in the supplements attack the
problem of Insulin Resistance from a variety of biochemical
pathways derived from many different, well accepted theories
and clinical studies. In addition, the support for lifestyle
changes and the follow-up that we offer is unlike any
other product or system sold in the marketplace.

solutions with medical science. He received his Bachelor
of Science at Cornell University where he was a Research/Surgical
Assistant and a Guest Lecturer. Upon graduating, Dr. Ellsworth

him to attend Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine
in Tempe, AZ where he graduated in 2006.
Insulin
Resistance is a health condition that is silently stalking
the American public. In most instances it is directly related
to the over consumption of refined carbohydrates and lack
of essential nutrients in the Standard American Diet (SAD).
There is much confusion in public perception
due to erroneous food pyramids that are promoted by government
agencies and independent societies that are, unfortunately,
based on outdated science.
The purpose here is to help people with
Insulin Resistance through diet, lifestyle and nutritional
intervention, with education being the key to success.

prevention along the Thailand/Burma border.
Insulin
resistance is the most insidious factor affecting our health
and well-being today. Reversing this condition requires an
integrative approach that encourages proper nutrition, increased
physical activity, and provides necessary information and
emotional support.
Remember what you do to maintain good
health when you leave the doctor's office is just as important
as anything the doctor can do. In fact, you are the most
important part of the process of staying well.

Providing professional guidance and support to individuals
with insulin-related disorders is the Outreach Team of Insulite
Laboratories' Medical and Advisory Board:

|
 |
Dr. Cohen lends her expertise in drug-nutrient-herb
interactions, carbohydrate addiction and the pathophysiology
of Insulin Resistance to Insulite Laboratories in addition
to providing professional guidance to individuals with insulin-related
disorders. She has developed the company's 52-week
Protocol for customers on the Insulite Systems and has co-written The
Insulite Guide to Reversing Insulin Resistance and its Related
Conditions which is available exclusively to Insulite

sponsors a PCOS support group. She is the author of the prize-winning
article "Melatonin, Menstruation and the Moon" published
in The Townsend Letter for Doctors and Patients.
I
am committed to reversing the growing trend of Insulin Resistance
that we see especially in the developed world. Insulin Resistance
leads to many serious chronic conditions and is usually readily
healed with lifestyle changes and nutritional supplementation.
This is truly a modifiable health risk that healthcare practitioners
have an obligation to address.

Licensing Examination.
I
look for the root cause of an illness or imbalance in a patient.
With an increasing number of people being diagnosed with
Metabolic Syndrome and Diabetes Mellitus, it is not surprising
to see, at the same time, an increasing number of women being
diagnosed with PCOS. All of these conditions have a common
root cause, Insulin Resistance.

Dr. DeLuca received her Naturopathic Degree and B.S. in
Nutrition from Bastyr University in Washington state. Her
particular interests include research in the fields of nutrition,
diet and nutrient therapies. She coaches Insulite Laboratories' customers
on their insulin-related conditions through the company's
comprehensive outreach program. At her practice in Kingston,
Pennsylvania, Dr. DeLuca specializes in counseling as well
as nutritional, botanical, orthomolecular and physical medicines.
One
of the goals of Naturopathic Medicine is to find the cause
of illness. With the rise of obesity, Type 2 Diabetes and
Metabolic Syndrome, along with their many complications,
research is revealing one of the main causes to be Insulin
Resistance. Although important, it is not enough to just
treat the symptoms. You have to treat the cause, too. A balanced,
nutritious diet plan and a program of regular exercise are
proving to be crucial to help reverse these diseases and
allow people to regain control of their health.
I am very excited to be a part of a team that is making a
difference in people's lives by taking a lead role in preventing
and reversing Insulin Resistance.

Insulin
Resistance is a silent condition that can wreak havoc on
the body for years before it is diagnosed. Many people are
very surprised to learn that they either already have insulin
resistance or are on their way to developing it and the long
term consequences for the unchecked condition can be physically
and emotionally devastating.
Treating the cause means making daily choices that are consistent
with the goal of enhancing your health. Making these healthy
choices a part of your daily lifestyle will go a long way
towards maintaining good health, hormonal balance, full function,
and freedom from disease for years to come.

Dr. Krause has extensive experience in Integrative medicine,
having worked in several multidisciplinary clinics. Currently,
she is a member of the alternative medicine department of
the Pascua Yaqui tribe in Tucson, AZ where she uses herbs,
nutrition, homeopathy, IV nutrients and lifestyle counseling
to facilitate healing, as well as managing and prescribing
pharmaceutical drugs. Dr Krause is very interested in the
topic of Insulin Resistance which is what drew her to Insulite
Laboratories as a member of the company's Medical & Advisory
team. She is a graduate of the Southwest School of Naturopathic
Medicine, attended massage school at Seattle Massage School,
and earned her B.A. in English Literature from the University
of Colorado at Denver.
Insulin
Resistance is an underlying cause of many of the chronic
illnesses that we see overloading our medical offices today.
Up to 25% of the American population is highly prone to Insulin
Resistance, and another 40% is moderately prone to it. Some
of the chronic conditions that are associated with Insulin
Resistance include PCOS, Metabolic Syndrome, obesity, high
triglycerides and low HDL, and even some forms of cancer.
Amazingly, this condition that is wreaking havoc on so many
lives can be reversed, as long as one is willing to have
healthy eating habits with an emphasis on avoiding processed
foods, and adequate exercise. As a bonus, nutritional supplements
can help augment the good effects of lifestyle changes and
help them take root more quickly.
Insulite Laboratories offers the framework for individuals
to take control of their health by helping them to deal with
Insulin Resistance, and keeping that control for a lifetime.
I'm glad to be part of their team.

Medicine in the Tempe, AZ and is currently completing her
Masters Degree in Oriental Medicine. After earning her Psychology
degree at the University of Arizona in Tucson, she worked
extensively with the National AIDS Fund Americorps where

As a member of Insulite's Medical & Advisory team, she
counsels individuals with insulin related conditions such
as Metabolic Syndrome, Pre-Diabetes and PCOS. The focus of
her clinical work is women's medicine with an emphasis on
Insulin Resistance.
Insulin
Resistance is an underlying factor in many illnesses and
leads to a multitude of chronic conditions. A systematic
approach incorporating nutritional supplementation, a healthy
diet and daily exercise are crucial components in the prevention
and treatment of this issue, and will help circumvent developing
the diseases that are caused by it.

Dr. Weiss has counseled hundreds of individuals with conditions
as diverse as obesity, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's,
CFS, ADD, Multiple Sclerosis, liver disease, cancer and diabetes.
He has advised U.S. school districts on methodologies for
instituting healthy school lunch programs and the health
ministries of the UK, Australia and Mexico regarding obesity
and nutrition. In addition to numerous professional articles,
Dr. Weiss is the author of the new book Why We Eat…and
Why We Keep Eating. Dr. Weiss
received his M.B.A. from Temple University and his Ph.D.
from Clayton College.
As
a doctor of naturopathic medicine I can attest to the fact
that there is no longer a clear line between being diabetic
and non-diabetic. According to Ward Dean, M.D., Medical Director
of Inner Age and Director for Vitamin Research Products,
and one of the most prominent anti-aging physicians in the
world today, we are all diabetic. Some of us are just more
diabetic than others.
The regime championed by Insulite Laboratories
is not for 'the other guy.' No one can ignore a
crisis that will affect almost every living adult in their
lives. Insulite is bringing that message to the forefront
and has developed a protocol that can be fine-turned and
truly works for everyone! The results are undeniable.

Kevin Shepard brings years of education, experience and
three World Power Lifting records to the Medical & Advisory
Board of Insulite Laboratories. He is currently developing
an exercise protocol specific to various diseases, such as
Diabetes, which is an extension of his Masters research project: Resistance
exercise influences mechanisms of natural immunity: natural
killer cell cytotoxic activity and neutrophile functional
cascade. A fitness consultant, he also teaches human
anatomy and physiology at the college level. In addition
to his power lifting championships, he won the Mr. Colorado
Masters bodybuilding competitions in 2000 and 2003.
My
belief is that exercise and other lifestyle modifications
are central to reversing Insulin Resistance and other serious
chronic diseases.
I am committed to identifying specific
exercise regimens that will have a direct effect on healing
these conditions.
