Product review: The Qivana METABOLIQ system and weight loss

I was recently approached about a diet system called Qivana. The reason the person (a very close friend) approached me was because they knew I had metabolism issues. I am not severely over weight; however, I need to drop about thirty pounds and it has been almost impossible. I swear I could eat celery for a month and not lose weight.

I have spent the better part of five years studying low carb eating and different low carb diets. I have tried Atkins and South Beach--both worked but were hard to follow. I have also done a lot of research on the effects of white flour, sugar, and processed foods on our body and I am convinced these foods are the primary cause of disease in America.

The instances of type 2 diabetes, as well as full blown diabetes, along with cancer and heart disease all follow a trend (almost to the “T”) with the historical lines of consumption (in the American diet) of these foods. There is also evidence of these foods being related to poor metabolism in children and adults. I won`t go into the specifics of the science here as I might bore you to death but believe me it`s worth looking up if you have an interest in this topic.

I say all this to tell my personal story about my struggle with hyper tension, high blood pressure, and poor metabolism. I was at my ropes end and I was at a loss as to how I would finally shed these 30lbs that I needed to lose.

I was just about to commit "suicide by donut" when a friend of mine told me about her husband losing 18lbs in four weeks using the "Qivana" weight loss system. I have known this guy for 15 years and I knew he struggled with the same issues as I do so it perked my interest. I started using the product (a free one week sample) and I lost 5 lbs in 8 days! I felt better, I had more energy, and I regained some hope that I could finally shed the 30 lbs I need to shed once and for all.

Along with the weight lose the company (Qivana) has metabolism boosting products (no caffeine, all natural) that have boosted my energy levels to the point I feel like I`m 20 again (I`m 45).Like I said, I have lost 5 Lbs in one week and I feel great and have tons of energy.

You have two basic approaches to the use of their products: 1) The Metabolic Burn which is the use of the “Qore” products along with “Metabolic Shakes” that are nutritionally balanced with the right carbs, protein, and vitamins to produce a perfectly balanced meal. You can chose to either drink a shake in the morning and at lunch as two meal replacements and then eat a healthy dinner (their meal guide reminds me of South Beach--very similar) which produces weigh lose at a faster rate, or you can just drink a shake for breakfast and eat a healthy lunch and dinner from the meal guide 2) After reaching your desired weight you simply stay on the “Qore” products to maintain health and vitality as well as continuing to eat as you have been taught in the new lifestyle you have learned.

The “Qore” products consist of a two things in particular: 1) A gel like tablet that is taken once a day in the morning and produces good bacteria in the intestines (Much like eating yogurt) and eating a powdered substance (it is like a ‘pixi-stix’) that comes in a small tubular package. These packets are filled with vitamins and herbs that help with your body’s ability to consume the proper energy producing nutrients at the metabolic level.

I have purposefully hit the high spots on this topic because I didn`t want to write a 1200 word Hub here. I wanted to explain enough to give an over view for those who may be interested in these products. I will give some website links here as well for further research on the readers part.

Update:

I have now been using the Qivana products for a month and, WOW, what a change that hs taken place. I have lost over 15 lbs. I am down a pants size (back to a 34) and I have energy that is really amazing. The really cool thing is that I have lost the weight differently then before. It is all coming off my stomach and waist line. I was told by a doctor that I had a large amount of visceral fat (the dangerous stuff) around my major organs in the stomach area and chest cavity. This, he said, is a precursor to heart disease and diabetes--yikes!

The "Qore Products" as they are called help balance out metabolism and thyroid function. The shakes and the meal guide ensure an easy way to learn to eat metabolically balanced meals. That is to say, not too much protein or carbs in an unbalanced fashion. In Atkins or South Beach, these diets encourage a larger amount of proteins in the diet--this causes weight loss but it causes loss of valuable bone, muscle, water and fat loss simultaneously. The Qivana health system causes the body to shed only fat and not lean muscle or bone. I was aso impressed by the research behind Qivana`s products. There are over 90 peer reviewed studies and journal entries about the science behind these products. The leading doctors of both holistic health and metabolic health are involved in this company and their products. I hope this personal testimony helps with your questions.

Final conclusion:

If your in poor health, need to loose weight, have blood pressure issues, or are a candidate for diabetes--find a distributor and get on this health care plan. WP
