With the launch of The Fat Flush Reboot, it’s impossible not to compare it to the newly updated U.S. food pyramid — and to ask what’s still missing.
Yes, the government has made improvements. There’s more emphasis on whole foods. Less tolerance for ultra-processed junk. A stronger acknowledgment that sugar and refined carbohydrates are driving chronic disease.
That’s movement in the right direction.
But in my opinion, it’s not enough.
Because today’s continuing health crisis isn’t about calories or food groups. It’s about metabolic collapse.
Insulin resistance.
Chronic inflammation.
Mitochondrial dysfunction.
Hormonal disruption.
Toxic overload.
These are the forces driving modern disease — from fatty liver and pre-diabetes to stubborn weight gain and accelerated aging.
A static pyramid can’t fix that.
The Fat Flush Reboot was created for today’s reality — a high-stress, toxin-exposed environment where blood sugar instability and mineral depletion are increasingly common.
This isn’t about rearranging food groups.
It’s about restoring metabolic control.
That means:
Stabilizing blood sugar.
Supporting liver detox pathways.
Protecting arterial health.
Rebuilding the trace minerals modern soils no longer provide.
No government graphic can accomplish that.
But targeted, metabolically intelligent nutrition can.
And nowhere is that more apparent than in the fats the new pyramid quietly endorses.
Butter Is Not the “Best” Fat
The new food pyramid gives butter a free pass — and this is one place where I part ways with conventional advice.
Butter isn’t automatically a villain. But when it’s heated or paired with refined carbohydrates and sugar — think toast, pancakes, pastries — it contributes to Advanced Glycation and Toxification (AGT), a process that quietly but surely damages arteries, fuels inflammation, and accelerates metabolic aging. Over time, this glycation cascade can lead to arterial thickening and calcification. (For a deeper dive into this subject, check out my article, “The Molecules That Age You”.
That’s not a future any of us want.
That’s why I prefer fats that protect your arteries instead of stressing them.
Oils like macadamia and hempseed are far more metabolically friendly. Macadamia oil is rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and remains stable when heated. Hempseed oil provides an ideal balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fats to help calm inflammation and support insulin sensitivity.
But fats aren’t the only area where the guidance falls short.
What’s Fishy About Today’s Seafood Advice?
The new food pyramid promotes seafood without addressing the growing contamination problem. Mercury, PCBs, and industrial pollutants are not theoretical concerns — they are measurable burdens that can impact the brain, thyroid, and immune system.
You want omega-3 support — not neurotoxins.
That’s why I recommend cleaner sources:
- Fresh, cold-water wild fish from trusted suppliers
- Organic flaxseed oil, such as UNI KEY’s Hi-Lignan Flax Oil
The Bottom Line
These details may seem small but they’re not. Over time they influence inflammation, insulin sensitivity, arterial health, and even how well your brain ages.
If we want to reverse chronic disease, restore metabolic health, and age with strength and clarity, we have to go beyond government graphics and get back to what the body actually needs.
Real food.
Real fats.
Real nourishment.
That’s where true healing begins.
The Fat Flush Reboot was designed for the world we’re living in now — a post-pandemic, high-stress, toxin-heavy world where pre-diabetes, stubborn weight gain, fatty liver, and hormonal chaos have become the norm. The Reboot shows you how to stabilize blood sugar, restore metabolic balance, support your liver, and finally get your body working with you again.
If you’re ready to take your health into your own hands, The Fat Flush Reboot shows you how.

I don’t need to lose weight, is this what fat flush robot means?? I don’t have a computer. No by
Joy, the Fat Flush Reboot is designed to steady blood sugar, calm inflammation, support the liver, and restore efficient fat burning — the very foundations that influence not just heart health, but nearly every chronic condition. In short: it helps correct the root imbalances that quietly drive long-term disease — naturally. – Team ALG

Hello Ann Louise –
First thing – I am a big fan. You have enormous background and knowledge.
Amid the mountains of information (clickbait) available on “what to do,” I focus mostly on your wisdom.
You are my “go to” nutritionist !!!
Some thoughts – speaking as a health conscious senior citizen.
As I said, every day, consumers open up their computers and become overwhelmed by advertisements from “health experts” stating, “most Americans are deficient in … ; everyone needs extra … ; stop taking this ..; this will lower your cortisol by …; your doctor isn’t telling you … ; you need to take this with that; buy this book and …” And then there’s the filibustering – ‘watch this video to be young again …- 30-45 minutes later comes to sales pitch. So it’s Wash – Rinse – Repeat! WASH – RINSE – REPEAT!!!!
In addition, I watch and read all of your emails. in doing so, I realize “Oh this is me, this is what I need”.
But then, I also then have to ask myself ‘ TO WHAT END?
I simply can’t afford it all. As consumers, we all need a “thick filter”.
Currently, I am probably spending around $500. retirement dollars per month on supplementations.
And I do believe I benefit. And the sad thing, insurances will pay for synthetic poisons, statins, blood thinners, which contribute to disease, etc. And nothing for Magnesium, Tumeric, Fish Oil, etc.
The system is woefully misaligned and greedy!
So what am I trying to say – THERE MUST BE A WAY FOR THE CONSUMER TO CUT THROUGH IT ALL!!!!
I can’t afford all of your stuff (and I’m not talking limited time discounts, introductory offers, etc.”!
While understanding you have costs – It’s time for the Functional Doctors, Nutritionists and insurance companies to come together and cut this monster down to size!
Again, I CAN’T BUY ALL YOUR STUFF!
As a respect to consumers and limited/fixed income retirees,
it’s time to encapsulate and rank order some things.
Perhaps ONE BLOOD TEST – ONE BLUEPRINT (backed by extensive data).
Here’s something new – Being able to read an article that takes 5-10 minutes (no book purchases, no 3 hour presentations, no filibusters) which actually cuts through to a BOTTOM LINE.
I realize there are many loopholes within my discussion.
But the health industry must also realIze – WE JUST CAN’T BUY IT ALL!
Deborah, the world of health information can be overwhelming, and you’re absolutely right — no one can (or should) feel like they have to “buy everything” to stay well. My goal has never been to create pressure, but to provide options and education so people can choose what makes sense for them. If budget is a concern, I always suggest starting with the basics: foundational lab work, stabilizing blood sugar, prioritizing magnesium, omega-3 fats, and whole foods. From there, everything else becomes more targeted — not overwhelming. And thank you again for being such a thoughtful, engaged reader – Team ALG
When will the Fat Flush Reboot be available in printed book form?
Right now, The Fat Flush Reboot is available in e-book format only. If you’d like a printed copy, you can use the printer-friendly version to save on ink — and you don’t have to print the whole thing. Many readers choose to print just the sections they use most. You can also have it professionally printed and bound at places like Office Depot, Staples, FedEx/Kinko’s, or through an online service such as printme1.com. We truly appreciate the feedback — and we’ll absolutely keep the request for a printed edition in mind for the future – Team ALG
I am curious as to why you not recommend fish oil instead of flax seed oil? Or even cod liver oil as the Weston A. Price Foundation recommends? I thought seed oils were extremely bad for you, so I would love your input. I remember you recommended GLA instead of fish oil, so it is very confusing why those were recommended over fish oil. With the reboot, are you not recommending the cran-water, Super-GI Cleanse and the weight loss packages you recommended before? Just so I understand? Thanks!
Stephanie, based on the independent testing I’ve reviewed over the years, I’m not comfortable recommending fish oils — including cod liver oil. Marine oils are highly unstable and prone to oxidation, and contamination with mercury, dioxins, and other environmental pollutants continues to be a concern. In my view, the purity and stability simply aren’t consistent enough to rely on.
That’s why I’ve emphasized more stable alternatives, such as flax oil and GLA, which support inflammatory balance without the same oxidation risks. UNI KEY’s High Lignan Flaxseed Oil, for example, is organic and cold-pressed for purity and stability.
And yes — Cran-Water, Super-GI Cleanse, and the foundational weight loss supports are absolutely still recommended. I simply didn’t want to overwhelm readers with too many suggestions at once. Hope that helps clarify! – Team ALG
