The Latest Discovery in the Science of Youth
What can be better than any diet pill on the market? It's an "aha!" moment that changes our thinking and thoughts forever. In this new interview, Dr. Northrup reveals the benefits of a "nitric oxide enhancing lifestyle."
Seems like a fancy way of saying "low sugar, high pleasure." :)
Hope you enjoy!
Jorge
P.S. make sure to get her book if you can ... it's amazing. Click here. And next time you are in Maine make sure to visit the Harraseeket Inn (where she filmed her PBS bonus with me) too. It's the only place I have ever seen that has all the Belly Fat Cure approved sweeteners on the tables. And the food is amazing!
p.s. Read more about nitric oxide here in the LA Times article.
As well as this article about Dr. Northrup's discovery.
Very interesting information. Please share your thoughts and comment below.

I was able to view the video and it was very interesting. Looking forward to the PBS special.
Great Job Jorge! Thanks for genuinely caring.
Jorge- I have watched every video the min I click on it- I love them all- keep them coming! They keep me educated and motivated! I am not super techy and have a 3 yr old computer- so I don't think I am special...just keep things updated on my computer...you do a good job- keep it up!
I have been doing the belly fat cure for two weeks the first week i lost a pound a day now on the second week I am still doing S?C 15/127 but the second week I did not loose anything.What am I doing wrong?
I LOVE the excellent, vital information you send. Love it. But, I HATE watching the videos. I'm begging you, to please, please, provide a transcript for those of us who would prefer to read the information.
I truly appreciate your programs and your information is too important to miss, but I'm done with your videos. It just takes too long. I'll wait for the book or for some other site to report on these studies.
Very motivational video. Will you let us know when the PBS program is viewing? Loving the results of the BFC!
I love your book. Unfortunately, I cannot afford this new program starting Monday. I have been on
BFC for 3 days and have lost 3 lbs!! Dr. Northrup is the bomb!! Love her book Mother-Daughter Wisdom. Last night, had a major sweet craving so I ate a square of chocolate and it satisfied me. Dr.Northrup is right about the first few bites are the best!!!
Facinating! Thank you for the wealth of information. Who would have known what our unhealthy love for sugar has robbed us of.
i dont have the money to start on mon daynow but thank you for all the information on the web .iam injoying all that iam learning so thanks. i saw you and Dr northrup on the web and the dark chocolete works. so thanks kim
please do not stop your videos they help me. some people need to view not just read your good works. thanks kim.
I've been on the bfc for 6 weeks and have lost a total of 4-1/2# and 5-1/2"
Thanks .

I am a guy, and I know these particular videos are targeted toward women, especially those over 40. However, I have been on the BFC program since July 2009 and have lost about 50 lbs so far (50 more to go). I especially like that one more part of the scientific explanation is provided as to why I feel better, and the pleasure factor involved. I am still battling, although to a much more limited extent because I'm just too busy, the people that say "any program will work if you just stick with it." If that were true, I'd have lost this weight a long time ago. I'm even concerned because my doctor says different people have different experiences. I don't believe that any more. Some people may be sick, or have genetic disorders that fundamentally change the biochemical facts about the way their bodies operate, but that really MUST be the exception.
In short, this works. And a clear investigation and understanding of the science around it supports it, and virtually nothing else.
Just want to say YOU Jorge(& certainly Dr. Northrup), are a blessing. I am 39, & constantly researching for my own body/health. You are fantastic, thank you for caring about people, and keep the thoughts/ideas/recommendations coming, PLEASE! XO!
Jorge! You are too cute!! Thank you for yet another enjoyable video!! Dr. Northrup rocks!!!
JORGE you are a wonderful resource of information and source of inspiration, but i have to say this; PLEASE stop interrupting your speakers! You brought them onboard to help us all with snippets of vital information and then you constantly interrupt them. Let them talk, we only get them for a couple of minutes, We LOVE you and your energy,and you have the platform 99.9% of the time to say whatever you want whenever you want. I am grateful to you for the info, I have been following you since July of 2009 and have lost a solid 50 lbs. and feel better than I think I have ever felt. Please don't take offense, I know you have boundless energy and its all because you are so excited to share. THANK YOU for all you do.
Jorge, let us know when the PBS special will be on. I am looking forward to it. Love all the informative videos, certainly helps me stay on track.
Jorge, I can no longer access the videos on your page. This has happened for awhile. I changed all I can think to change. Can they be accessed from some other place [ facebook, you tube].
Gail
WOW! Thank you. Have to agree with JHH -- but, Jorge, you are changing lives and I'm telling everyone about your books (that will listen). 1" lost so far, never dreamed it was the sugar. Your recipes are great, taste fantastic. A bit slower on the weight loss, ate healthy before, never knew it was the sugar, not the fat. Makes so much sense!
Please contact (somehow) Dr. Doris Rapp, Author of "Is this Your Child" Lives in Phoenix and would be incredible for you to meet her too, she has done tons of research on diet and ADD etc. :)
Jorge, Thank you for your ever passionate pursuit to provide supportive, informative and educational infomration as it is available. I am so excited to be part of The Belly Fat Cure "Family"! I am 42 and have made a commitment to myself to get healthy, and I just love the transfomation that I have gone through as a result of your book!
Dr. Northrop is so inspiraitonal becuase she gives us women a "voice: and she validates what being a woman is all about, with genuine comapssion and concern for us all! Thank you agian Jorge, you have helped me realize that there truly is a light at the end of the tunnel! I am eternally gratelful!
I second the comment that said let you speakers speak - quit interrupting. You have some awesome speakers but we lose some of what they are trying to say with the constant interruption.
Thanks for all the work that you put into your work. I know the name of the game is making money but I do feel that it goes beyond that for you - that you really have a passion for what you are doing. Again, thanks for all the motivation and help you give.

Jorge,
I am so excited about the Premier program starting 3/1/10!! I love all the energy and commitment you put into getting real biological answers about making our bodies healthy which translates into happy.
I have been a fan of Dr. Christine Northup's for years and have so much respect for her. It thrills me for you to become affiliated with her. She is part of a group of integrative health practitioners which includes Dr. Wayne Dyer who I saw you had helped loss weight and he promoted your book to me as a result. This group participates in the I CAN DO IT! Seminars sponsored by Hay House Publications. I went to my first one in 2005 in Orlando, FL and left so inspired. I hope to hear that you will be part of their sessions in the future. It's all about mind, body & spirit working together.
Even before I signed up for your program I was already unconsciously preparing for it because I gave up diet soda for Lent. For me this is HUGE! I've replaced it with home brewed unsweetened green iced tea. I also weaned myself off of antidepressants about a month ago because I had begun to feel they were no longer helping me but were only adding a large financial burden to my monthly expenses. I started taking the vitamin regime personally designed for me by Dr. Andrew Weil about a month ago. It feels like from so many directions I have been brought to this place and time to find optimum health and therefore true happiness.
Thank you for helping me on my journey!
Please let us know when the PBS special will be on. looking forward to seeing it, as I do with anything you have to share. Your AWESOME! Jorge. Thank you. Linda
Hi Jorge! Love this new way of life you have been so generous to share with us. I am doing well on the program. Was able to afford the BFC book but am not able to afford your over 40 premier coaching plan. I did get the basics off the internet and will be starting it soon. Would love to know more meal plans...maybe you could write a mini book for us gals over 40 as really I think this is the toughest time to maintain good health. I see there are other followers who can not afford the plan either. Anyway, thank you so much. Terame
I love the videos, but it must be my computer problem because it stops every few seconds and then starts again....very frustrating!! It takes 5 minutes to get thru 50 seconds.
I just stop watching then. I'm missing out on all of the good videos =(
Any ideas??
@Eve: Your computer is probably "buffering" which means it doesn't have enough bandwidth to take the videos without stopping to "reload" the bits (packets) and then display them. My guess would be you don't have enough bandwidth -- are you on high speed, dial up or satellite ?? Check your ISP connection or contact your ISP directly to see find out what your download speeds are -- sorry if this is too techy, but I think that may be your problem. At this point, if you can see the videos, I don't think it's a Flash player problem -- hope this helps!
Very interesting and thru.
Jorge - I'm going to "third" the comment about the constant interruptions when you are interviewing people. I know these aren't the first comments you've read or that we have posted here about this problem. I personally love, love, love your enthusiasm and willingness to share with all of us and your exuberance for the subject matter, but please, please, please stop interrupting -- when interviewing people, it's about THEM -- not you. And quite honestly -- it's just plain annoying-----we already know what you know -- we want to hear what THEY know!!!
If you're that short on the amount of time you can spend on a video, then discuss the subject matter first and then get into the interview. If it's a Q&A, then let them finish their answer. Please?
Why does the video keep starting and stopping? Please, somebody tell me because I simply can't stand the stop and starting!!!!! There must be a solution where it just plays. Please somebody help me!!!!
I just sent the note about the stopping and starting. I have business high speed time warner, so its not about bandwith.
Jorge,
I was lucky enough to be in your free group in San Diego. I lost 15 lbs but unfortunately during the holidays I got back into my sugar addiction. Now my Blood sugar is back up and I am ready to get back on track. I am planning on starting my own support group here in San Diego with a group of friends and following the new menus! Your video is new information that we did not receive in the first class and has motivated me to get going! I am also going to take my before pictures again !Like we did in the registration for your class. I know this way of eating works and it is really not hard to do. Its just taking that fiirst step to get back on track! I am ready!
Claudia /San Diego
My computer is also doing it! Its not the computer because other videos work!
I also am having trouble getting the videos to play. And I do have high speed internet. Can you please also include a transcript - it would be a big help. That way I can print your messages out and refer back to them when I have spare time to do some reading.
This is great information but it is old news. The 1998 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was for this discovery. An easy way to raise nitric oxide levels is through supplementation of l-citrulline and l-arginine. I'd suggest you look into this website for more info: http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/1998/press.html. Jorge, keep up the great work of bringing this info to the masses.
I always thought I had a harder time giving up sugar because of the alcholism on both sides of my family. Now this video confirms that.
Transcript please. Video doesn't work without stopping and starting. Unprofessional and very annoying.
I was unable to watch the vedio..I refreshed the page several times but alaas :(
Jorge, Have you read Dr Steven Gundry's Diet Evolution? Your diet and his have much in common, though yours is more consumer-friendly. But he advocates cutting out starches entirely, such as grains, pasta, bread, cereals and most fruits, since carbohydrates tend to interfere with weight loss efforts.You recommend some whole grains in your diet. I'm trying to figure out which is correct. Any comments? He would be another great interview for you.
Jorge, as always an informative video. Though maybe I'm unlike others and find I just have to stay away from the dark chocolate and wine because I can't just eat one square or have one glass of wine! I start craving more! :)
But on a VERY exciting note. I got my parents to start the BFC 5 weeks ago. My Dad who is 80 and was a total sugar addict had his blood work done and his triglycerides went from 450 to 150!!!!! His good cholesterol went up and his total cholesteral went down all in comparison to a november blood draw. His internist was blown away! What is wonderful about your plan is anyone can do it because its simple and have huge health benefits. I think hes lost 6 pounds total and 2 inches off his waist but I know he sneaks in more fruit then he probably should.
Hi Jorge, thanks so can much. Speakers like you can help so many people.What a gift, don't you think?Maybe someday you will be able to use that gift in even a more profound way.Best regards, laura
thanks jorge.
Loved the interview with Dr. Northrup. She basically confirms my own "feelings and thoughts" as I've dealt with the sugar problem although I did not know all the technical terms like the nitric oxide. I knew the first bite of anything sweet gave me great pleasure and eating the whole thing did not feel the same. I was in the Costco 100 group and lost 20 pounds in the 10 weeks. By managing my sugar intake I, like Dr. Northrup, have been able to maintain this loss for 7 months now, plus my energy level is amazing since I do not go through the highs and lows of the sugar curse. Seeing my success and hearing all the good things I say about "The Belly Fat Cure", I am mentoring 6 friends and relatives on your plan. Three of them purchased your book, one joined your online class, and the other two are just trying the basics, cutting down the carbs and sugars. They call me regularly with questions, most of which I can answer, but I often tell them to get on your web site for the details and facts about the sugars and carbs. Your interviewing these professionals really makes a believer out of most people. Thanks for all your support via your emails.
Jorge,
I LOVE your videos. I can also listen to them while I'm doing other work on the computer, makes it so convenient.... This one is great with Dr. Christiane Northrup. I think with the two of you "brainstorming" it with benefit all! Sorry I missed you at Costco in S.D., but I will be looking for your book at Costco to buy it. I think this is the answer and is the hope that I need to lose weight in my 50 years of age. Seems like weight doesn't drop off of me like it used to and it hangs on like "glue" Just by cutting back on sugar, I have lost some weight, but I need to buy your book in order to get the "details" of the good carbs that are okay to use....THANKS...HERES TO ALL OF OUR HEALTH!!! God's Blessings to You.... Tina
Dr. Mercola also advocates no grains, not just for weight loss but for health, as does Dr. Eades.
Jorge,
Hi! I was so excited about your new offer, 6wks of menus, so I purchased them! But WHERE are they? I have not recieved them !!!!!! I am really disappointed that I have not recieved them so that I could do my shopping and start the program on Monday! VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am having much trouble finding the products you recommend are there other options instead of using the brans you have listed. I live in Virginia near Washington DC, it seems our markets do not carry the brands and I am running from store to store and that's very defeating to try to stick to this.
Thanks for your help.
Mary Ann
Jorge, I wish I could support you by joining your premier program, but am unable to at this time. I do enjoy your videos and have lost 23 pounds in the last 6 weeks. You are definetly on to something with this new way of eating. I am so happy that I ran across your info on the internet, I have a few friends that have purchased your book now and we are all flabbergasted at how much sugar is in all the "good" foods like WW's and lite yogurts etc etc. Keep up the good work...b
Really awesome work. Thank you for sharing this with us and for being so passionte Jorge. But please let your guests speak. I kept trying to listen to Dr. Northrup and wanted to hear more of what she had to say but she wasn't able to finish a lot of her thoughts. Thanks,
Please, not so much coffee before an interview. I say this with love and SO much gratitude for what you are doing for all of us.
