The New Body Typing: How Do You Know If You're Carb Tolerant or Carb Intolerant?

The French Paradox: How do Parisians Drink Wine, Eat Cheese, Indulge In Rich, Fatty Food, And Stay Lean?
By Tom Venuto
QUESTION: I was reading an article about the debate over fruit and fat loss. I heard that if you combine fruit with a small portion of cheese, the cheese will slow down or decrease the fructose absorption. I remember reading that the French have a lot of cheese and fruit in their diets (not to mention wine), but you rarely see an overweight French person. I think there are even some books about how the French don't get fat. Can you comment on the validity of this? . . .

"Tom Venuto is a credible, qualified professional who knows his stuff. More than that, he has a genuine concern for the people he's helping. His "Inner Circle" is a premier quality resource - well worth the money, and a benefit to anyone, anywhere, of any age who is trying to lose weight. I highly recommend it!"
Paul Crane, UltimateFatBurner.com
"I just listened to the first "Burn the Fat Show" and this one 20-minute message is at the top of my list. I have motivational CD's and books coming out the wazoo and you've set a standard in your show that I look forward to listening to again and again. Keep up the GREAT work!"."
Steve Wiebusch
The support here is incredible for my morale. I'm excited about the inches I've lost. In the past when I'd get halfway there, I'd lose motivation and quit. I've never made it this far and still felt motivated to keep going. "
Rikki Fougere
"I have many people everyday ask me what my secret is and how I lost 137 pounds. I tell them the same thing - I use Tom Venuto's Burn The Fat - Feed The Muscle program and it all boils down to "How bad do you want it?"
Mike Ogorek
"I've been following the Burn The Fat recommendations and I now fit into a pair of jeans that I havent worn in a long time. The Salvation Army must love me these days, as I've liberated 12 clothes hangers and two shelves of oversized clothes since New Years!"
