How much does it cost? Answer: About as much
as servicing your car. It is not expensive, but you need to see exactly
what you getting before you can assess its value. Take into account what
you will save on expensive junk foods.
Does it involve regular visits to the naturopath?
Answer - Yes. You can begin Ultra Lite with a 5 week program. This
involves an initial consultation, five subsequent consultations (preferably
weekly) and a final at the end of your maintenance program.
What happens if I need to do more than 5 weeks?
Answer - You can do another 5 weeks at a reduced price or do it weekly.
What happens when I am close to my goal weight?
Answer - There is a maintenance program that shows you how to plan well
balanced meals that will not increase weight. The information for the
maintenance program as well as a visit about 5 weeks later is included in the
price of the initial program.
Does my health fund cover any of the cost?
Answer - It depends on the level of your membership. You can check with
your fund. There are two ways you may be able to claim. First, if
you are covered for naturopathy, then there are 7 visits you can claim for in
a 5 week program. Second, many funds recognise Ultra Lite as a bulk item
you can claim. You will need to work out which is the best option.
I am a provider for all health funds.
I have heard that rapid weight loss is
dangerous, does Ultra Lite come in this category? Answer - Rapid weight
loss is dangerous on a "starvation" diet. Ultra Lite is definitely not
in that category. Ultra Lite is quite rapid, but because there is a good
balance of nutrients and because there is less muscle loss, it is very safe.
I have heard that high protein diets like Adkin's
are not safe. Answer - Ultra Lite is NOT a high protein diet. The
amount of protein and fat is restricted to levels that are less than the
average diet. Ultra Lite is very different to the Adkin's diet.
Isn't dieting all about avoiding fats? Answer
- No. Both fats and carbohydrates must be taken into account. Our body
can very quickly convert excess carbohydrate into fat. We must
have some fats, particularly essential fatty acids. They are called
essential, because we can only obtain them from the diet. Omega 3
essential fatty acids are found in Flaxseed oil and omega 6 essential fatty
acids are found in Safflower oil. It is necessary to have some essential
fatty acids while on the Ultra Lite program.
I want to make it as easy as possible for your
to take that important first step in improving your health and quality of life.
