WEIGHTLOSS AND WELLBEING THROUGH NUTRITION

25 YEARS OF SUCCESSFUL RAPID PERMANENT FAT-LOSS

Dr. Cohen, an international specialist renowned for his research on the hormones involved in obesity and weight loss, has formulated a unique programme based on each individual's particular blood profile. (Based on biochemical analysis of the blood). Dr. Cohen's programme offers rapid fat-loss that is easily maintained.

Dr. Cohen's programme is unique, but so successful that various attempts are being made to duplicate it. Dr. Cohen does, however, maintain strict control of his research and formula, and has only one authorised clinic in Port Elizabeth / Uitenhage, run by Marian Griffin.

BEWARE OF IMITATIONS

WHO IS DR. COHEN ?

Dr. Rami Cohen (MD.FCOG.WITS) emigrated from Israel to South Africa in 1982. His area of speciality was infertility and he ran Wits Medical School's first Test tube (in vitro fertilisation) programme. It was in his work with infertility that he stumbled across the problem of obesity. "Overweight patients reacted better to fertility treatments once their weight was controlled" explains Dr. Cohen. The fertility potential therefore attracted Dr. Cohen to what he calls the "fascinating world of obesity".

"Obesity is a disease and has little or nothing to do with lack of discipline", says Dr. Cohen.
 

WHERE DID THE COHEN DIET ORIGINATE ?

After three years of research and experiments carried out at Harvard University and Mount Sinai, Dr. Cohen concluded that obesity is a metabolic problem arising out of hormonal imbalances. Three hormones are involved:-

• Human Growth Hormone: Preserves muscle tissues and breaks down fat.
• Insulin: Regulates blood sugar levels.
• Serotonin: Released in the brain to control the craving for food, especially starches.

In People who suffer from Obesity Syndrome, the level of growth hormone drops, unnaturally high levels of insulin are released and serotonin is not released properly. As a result, sufferers constantly crave food and no matter how little of how much they eat, they gain weight or cannot lose weight.
 

SO WHAT IS THE SOLUTION ?

Dr. Cohen treats patients by analyzing their unique blood profile and devising a custom-made diet according to the findings. The eating plan or "diet" stimulates these three hormones with specific food combinations and quantities so that the body starts burning its own fat. No artificial substances, pills or injections are necessary. The body corrects the chemical balance naturally.
 

THE EATING PLAN

The diet consists of three balanced meals a day from certain food groups and in specific quantities. No "exotic" or "expensive" food need to be purchased - it is all basic, "everyday" food taken from the protein, vegetable, fruit and carbohydrate groups. The essential element is the specific quantity combination formula unique to each person. "Sharing" a friend's diet or "copies" will have limited short-term results, as the essential chemical balance will not be achieved.
 

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT FROM OTHER DIETS ?

With the Cohen Diet, you will experience:

1. Rapid Fat Loss, not loss of muscle and water
2. No hunger pangs, no cravings
3. Increased energy and vitality
4. Re-feeding programme so that you never regain the weight

The eating plan is followed by a short stabilization (re-feeding) programme to reintroduce rich foods without upsetting the balance created by the diet. This ensures that weight is NOT regained when normal eating resumes.
