Let me ask you a personal question. As you read these words, right now-- are you burning fat?
By Katrina Kern

If you don't know the answer, you need to know about a simple,
inexpensive way to make sure. Every time. Every day. And I'll show you why and
how this simple, doctor-proven technique can be your most powerful
weapon in your fight against fat.

No matter what weight loss program you are currently on, wouldn't you
like to know whether your plan is producing results? Most of us step on
the scale, or wait until our clothes fit more loosely, before we really
know whether our latest miracle diet pill or plan is working. And as a
veteran dieter, you know that can take many days or weeks.

But there is a way to know for certain-- within hours-- whether or not
you're burning fat. To see if the food, or the pills, or the exercise
is really returning benefits. Immediate benefits.

Are you starving?

There are really only two ways your body loses weight (by non-surgical
means). You are either burning fat, or "burning" muscle. If you are
burning muscle, watch out! You have actually begun to starve. For safe,
healthy weight loss, you must preserve your muscle tissue (including
heart muscle) and burn fat instead.

Here are the medical facts: any time your body burns fat, chemicals
called ketones are produced. Ketones are byproducts of burning fat. Robert
C. Atkins, M.D., the famous low-carb diet expert, states it clearly.
"When your body releases ketones," says Dr. Atkins, "it is chemical proof
that you're consuming your own stored fat."

And burning your own stored fat is exactly what you want to do. Dr.
Atkins goes further. "If you're not in lipolysis (ketosis), you're in
glucosis." It's one or the other, period. Your body is either burning
sugar, from simple and complex carbohydrates you are eating, or burning your
own stored fat. Both produce energy. But only one will help you lose
weight!

Prove it to yourself

You may have heard about this simple method of testing for ketone
release before. But have you actually used it? It really is a marvelous tool
to help you see the biological proof of your diet program, quickly and
easily.

Ketone test strips are available at any pharmacy. Originally developed
as a testing tool for diabetics, they are sold under various brand
names, including KetoStix, LipoStix, Keto-Thin, and others. They all work
essentially the same way.

The test strips are simple to use. Just place the tab end of the test
strip in your first morning urine stream, and note the color change.
Match the color to the chart on the bottle, and know immediately whether
you are burning fat-- or not.

The beauty is- it
