The Questions

The Zola Diet is a revolutionary way to lose weight. Every other diet on the market uses low fat, calorie restricted diets combined with exercise to lose weight. We have found that doesn’t work for most folks. Our diet works for everyone; even the “extreme dieters” who have tried everything, but always end up gaining the weight back.

The Zola Diet combines healthy calorie reduction with a proprietary homeopathic remedy to help burn 2500 – 4000 calories day. This way, the dieter loses weight faster than they ever have before. Our dieters have lost an average of 28 pounds in 40 days or less using the protocol provided by The Zola Diet team. They eat REAL food–nothing pre-packaged, frozen, or shrink-wrapped.

The Zola Diet is safe. The original protocol is over 50 years old. We have completely redesigned the diet so it meets standards set by dieters in 2009. We have a consulting physician who’s an MD and an expert in Integrative Medicine. We also use the latest technology to give dieters the tools they need to not only lose weight but also to re-set their metabolism so they can keep the weight off and eat normally for the rest of their lives. It’s nothing sort of amazing.

“I can say with 100% certainty that this diet and process has changed my life. I was able to shed a lot if weight I previously could not lose. But I’ve noticed that I’ve been sleeping better, more energy in general, having an easier time concentrating, and even my psoraisis has cleared up some. Thank you”

Why is The Zola Diet so expensive?

Well, truth is, we’re not. When you compare our full program with some of the most popular diet programs on the market, we’re the second least expensive on the market.

We are not simply peddling bottles of homeopathic remedy and a cookbook. This is a full program designed to go beyond helping you lose weight and give you the tools to change your eating habits so you don’t gain it back.

Yes, you can find human chorionic gonadotropin on the internet cheaper, but you get what you pay for–and it’s certainly not our proprietary formula. Our formula is exclusive to The Zola Diet and is not available anywhere else in the world.

Further, you won’t lose weight with just the remedy. This is a HUGE misunderstanding about any supplemented diet program. People ask us all the time, “Why can’t I just buy the remedy? That’s all I need to lose weight, right?” Wrong.

You need to have a disciplined diet regimen to follow and the support of experts to help you along the way. We provide that and more.

Why do people get fat?

…straight from Zola

Why do some people get fat no matter how hard they try to maintain? Why do some people stay skinny no matter how much they eat?

When you are fat you wonder “Why ME? Why couldn’t I be born with a metabolism that works?” For you, and me, and people like us, this video is an eye opener. My eyes opened so wide I started to cry while I watched this video. I had to watch it a second time to believe what I was seeing and hearing. All my life I had either been told, (or people intimated) that I was lazy, I ate too much, I didn’t care about how I looked, I didn’t exercise enough, and more. This video dispelled all of that garbage and gave me the truth. Clear truth. You have to see this.

The guy speaking doesn’t have any connection to The Zola Diet. He’s a science writer. His name is Gary Taubes and he wrote a book called Good Calories, Bad Calories. He was hired by the publisher to find out the truth about obesity. Why people get fat. Why fat people can’t get rid of their fat once they have it. And why the fat person just seems to get fatter, no matter how hard they try to get it off.

This is not a commercial for The Zola Diet either. I just thought you deserve to know the truth about why people get fat. This science dovetails with how The Zola Diet works to help you get to a healthy weight, once and for all. You’ll come to find out that the audience is doctors. Gary Taubes is trying to show doctors, the people we go to for advice, how people get fat and that the advice they’ve been giving us for years is a bunch of hooey. Go walk more. Eat less. Of course we’ve tried that! Gary Taubes tells them they have been giving out useless advice. He’s on our side. He’s telling these doctors that we are not lazy. We are not eating too much. He’s teaching them how the human body works even though they were the ones who went to medical school. They never learned the truth, although the answers have been around for decades. No one paid attention. That part made me really mad!

What unlocks the fat that I’ve never been able to get to before?

There are two parts of this diet that you’ve never, likely heard of. One is the plan for you to be able to keep weight off. This is supposed to be the last diet you’ll ever need. A cure for obesity; not just another diet. We call it our ZReboot phase and you’ll find out more about that in the Phases Explained section.

The other thing that I’ve never seen in any other diet (and as you know, I’ve done tons of them) is a homeopathic remedy that helps your body burn the fat. (And no, this isn’t some silly pill you buy from the back of a magazine. Read on).

Research was done in the 1950’s to discover that there are really three kinds of fat.

Structural fat. That’s the stuff that covers your bones. Without that fat it would be hard to walk. You’d be walking on bone. This is also the fat that keeps your organs from bouncing into each other. Structural fat just sort of makes you whole.
The second kind of fat he called Normal fat. Look at it this way. If you go on a cruise and eat the midnight buffet every day for a week, or if you pig out from Thanksgiving to Christmas, you are going to gain normal fat. This is the 10 pounds that many go up and down throughout a year. This is the easy stuff to get rid of.
Abnormal fat is the third kind. This is the kind that truly overweight people struggle with. What happens is when you diet to extremes, or diet too often, your body starts to work against you. Whenever you eat the least bit too much your body will decide to sock that extra away and it puts it in places where dieting won’t get at it. Reason is your body doesn’t want to be hungry. Your body feels threatened. You’ve trained it to be afraid that you’ll go on another diet again and make it suffer. So, when you go on yet another diet, the body will lose weight in this order: it will lose water weight first. Then it will eat the normal fat. Interestingly, next it goes after the muscle tissue and even the structural fat. The abnormal fat will be the last to go, and by then you are so weak and depleted that your health is in danger. Most folks can’t wait that long. They stop the diet, and with good reason. Have you ever been on an extreme diet that you did long enough that people started to tell you that you didn’t look healthy anymore? I had one guy tell me I had formed a “marathoner face.” A face that tells people you’ve gone too far. You’re almost a grey color and it’s not pretty. It might feel good to be skinny at that point, but you are not healthy.

So in order to unlock the abnormal fat and get it burning you need special help. At The Zola Diet, that special help comes the form of a homeopathic remedy. Homeopathic remedies are completely safe. They are non-habit forming. They are not drugs. There are no stimulants like ephedra. We don’t believe in that kind of dieting drug.

Our Consulting Physician, Dr. Paul Branch has developed a proprietary homeopathic formula just for The Zola Diet. The formula comes in a small squirt bottle. You squirt Dr. Branch’s ZReduction Formula under your tongue 4 times a day.

The formula works with your body to unlock the abnormal fat at a rate of 2500 – 4000 calories a day. That’s how you can lose up to a pound a day! That’s your body getting rid of the abnormal fat.

The formula leaves you feeling satisfied. You won’t be dieting hungry. You’ll sleep well. And you’ll have an amazing amount of energy.

The homeopathic remedy contains a combination of cell energizers including human chorionic gonadatropin, hypothalamus energy, citric acid (same as in lemons) and L-Carnitine. Dr. Branch’s specific formula opens up your body’s fat burning stores and allows the abnormal fat to release. This process, along with a very specific calorie-restricted diet will work to help you lose weight quickly.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

I’m skeptical. What do you have to say to me?

If you want to hear from the perspective of a loved one who put up with diet, after diet, after diet that I did, and now believes 100% that I’ve discovered the right diet, click here to hear from my husband. We’ve been married for 25 years. You probably have someone in your life too, that’s going to want to know what the heck you’re thinking of doing now. It might be a spouse. Maybe a friend or family member. I used to try to hide my diets, not only from my husband but from everyone else. That way if I fell off the diet wagon, again, I didn’t have to wallow in my failure in public. You know what I’m talking about.

A Doctor’s Observations on The Zola Diet

(from Dr. Paul Branch, M.D., Homeopathic Specialist)

The Zola Diet is a weight loss program that brings together over a decade of my experience in classical homeopathy and integrative medicine. To be effective in the long-term, a weight loss program must address five challenges:

Hormonal imbalances
Poor diet
Motivation. (A program has a much higher chance of success when noticeable weight loss is achievable in a short period of time.)
Energy loss. (Gaining weight represents a loss of energy that must be put back into the system if weight loss is to be sustainable. This can take different forms. One common problem is that people seeking to lose weight have low appetites and slow metabolic energy.)
Detoxification. (A high level of toxicity, causing sluggishness in the liver, may stall weight loss beyond a certain point.)

The Zola Diet is the only diet I know that has built a program keeping all these five points in mind in a straightforward, achievable way. The hCG in homeopathic form is a stimulus to burn fat quickly and beautifully re-shape the body Added to this are a few metabolic activators that, in homeopathic form, help oxygenate cells and fire up your metabolic furnace.

Perhaps most important is the success we see in “re-booting” the metabolism in The Zola Diet. This resets a hormonal thermostat that “locks in” success, buffering you from poor dietary choices that happen sooner or later. We add a special detoxification and metabolic-activating remedy formulation during this time to help your body balance out. I believe weight programs that don’t help you keep it off are a waste of time and money.

We exaggerate by saying weight loss is simple. We don’t tell you to just eat less and exercise a lot–you know as well as I do this rarely works. We give you the straight truth along with a program that presents straightforward answers.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

Where are the Before and After pictures?

They aren’t here. Why? I found out most before and after pictures that you see in the back of magazines are FAKED. They are all done with some kind of photo-shop program. You can click on any of the audio testimonial links (in the right sidebar) to hear from those that are on the diet, even now. You can hear from them about how they feel. How they feel about how they look, and you can even hear how this diet is affecting them, their self esteem and how it’s working for them and their families. Every individual who goes on a serious diet affects others. Maybe you have to feed kids and you don’t want to have to cook two meals. Maybe you live with someone who doesn’t want to have to quit going out and having fun, just because you are on a diet. Maybe you’re like me and you want to keep having people over for dinner even when you are on a diet. You can hear from real people.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

How does The Zola Diet compare in price to other diets on the market?

We did a direct price comparison for the most popular diet options on the market. We calculated an apples-to-apples analysis of what it takes to lose 30 pounds. How long do they say it takes to lose 30 pounds? How much is the registration fee? How much does the food cost? Add that all up and here’s what you get:

: Click for a larger view

You can look at diets in at least three different ways:

1. What does it cost to lose a pound?
2. How long does it take to lose 30 pounds (Pick a number)?
3. How many times will I lose, gain back, and lose the same weight?

If you have tried a lot of diets, you may be able to relate to this: After New Years, countless people go on Seattle Sutton’s Healthy Eating Plan (or another diet) for two months . . . every year. That’s because every year they gain those 10-15 extra pounds during the holidays. Then, they repent and dutifully take those pounds off in January and February.

That means these people pay an average of $4050 per year to lose the extra weight. Do that every year for 20 years and you’ve spent $81,000 on dieting!

The Zola dieters lose an average of 30-35 pounds during the first 40 days. They spend $1260 to do it and once their metabolism is re-set they are given the tools they need to keep the weight off forever!

They don’t have to do it over again every year. The Zola Diet is the last diet anyone ever needs.

We want to build The Zola Diet success on referrals not on failed diets.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

Are there some people who can’t be on this diet?

This diet can be adapted to just about anyone.

We’ve had diabetics on this diet.

We’ve had people who had gastric bypass or lap bands and who gained back too much weight.

Different ethnicities are not a problem.

If you are vegetarian we are working toward a diet for you. Coming soon.

If you have religious tenants that dictate your diet we can try to work with you, but we don’t have, for example, a Kosher version of the diet yet.

We have had old and young participate in the diet. We are geared up to accept full-grown teenagers and people in their advancing years. We can accept most folks who are healthy enough to go on a diet. That determination is made between the client and his or her physician. We do not want you to think we are a substitute for your regular physician.

People on this diet might be trying to lose the last 10 pounds of “cottage cheese” or “pregnancy fat” that they just can’t seem to drop, all the way on up to people who need to lose over 150 pounds.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

What are the Zola Diet Phases?

There are four phases to the diet. We call them:

ZBinge
ZReduction
ZReboot
ZLife

ZBinge is the beginning of the diet and is two days long. During these two days you eat as much as you can. You eat all the fun, bad stuff! Ice cream, fried foods, pizza, whipped cream, desserts galore, breads, pastas, anything you can think of.

How many diets do you go on that start with a binge? It’s easy. It’s fun and it’s a very satisfying way to begin.

Reason we have to do a binge period is we want you to have to readymade fat that your body can draw off of while you begin the diet. Don’t worry if you gain a few pounds during this period. They drop right off. And they drop off FAST.

ZReduction is your next phase. How long this phase takes depends on how much you have to lose. If you have at least 26 pounds to lose this phase will last 40 days. If you have 25 pounds or less, this phase lasts 26 days.

During ZReduction you get to eat fresh food and wonderful meals. We have recipes on our website and full instructions on the items you get to eat. You’ll have all the autonomy you need. You can follow our recipes or go your own way. We have recipes to cover you if you need to take meals to work. If you go to restaurants during ZReduction you’ll be able to order from the menu without much adjustment. Restaurants are doing a very good job of accommodating The Zola Diet.

You’ll basically eat two full meals a day and if you need it, one small one besides that. You’ll be taking your homeopathic remedy at the same time, so you won’t feel deprived. Your hunger, if any, will be very manageable.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

What do I get to eat while on the Zola Diet?

The food on this diet is truly amazing. Unlike any diet you’ve ever seen.

On the most restrictive portion of the diet you get to eat things like:
Italian breaded chicken with warm, chunky tomato sauce
Wasabi-ginger crusted mahi mahi with baby bok choy
Beef Tenderloin with mustard-shallot sauce and spinach-stuffed tomatoes….

Sounds more like a nice restaurant menu doesn’t it? Great thing is almost everything on The Zola Diet can be prepared in 20 minutes or less.

You also get to eat things like:

Meatloaf
Chili
Tacos
French onion soup
Burgers
Kebobs
Onion rings and tons more!

You can eat French, Italian, Indian, Mexican, American, Asian food. You like it. We most likely have diet versions of the ethnic choice for you. You get to eat dessert twice a day. You get to choose from plenty of vegetables and fruits. This is not a low-carb/protein version of a diet. This one has serious science behind it and a healthy perspective on food. You have autonomy. YOU choose what you eat for each meal. We don’t cook food, shrink wrap it, freeze it and ship it to you. You decide what you want to eat, shop for quality ingredients and make the meals.

There are very easy things to cook for the novice, or people who don’t really have time or inclination to cook. There’s a section of our website called “Zola To GO” that gives you ideas and meal plans for taking food to work or to events.

The food is one of the hallmarks of this diet. We say “Eat Like a Gourmet. Look Like a Dream”.

There are three phases to the diet. Each one is a foodie’s dream come true. People who eat what they call “simple food” love this diet. People who normally eat out are finding they can now cook for themselves and love what they are eating. You don’t have to stay home either. We give you very clear directions on things you can eat at restaurants. You won’t suffer on this diet. You can even eat filet mignon and lobster!

——————————————————————————————————————————-

Is this a healthy diet?

Because of its built-in cleansing attributes, The Zola Diet has your health in mind. People come out of a diet like this one, healthier than when they started, and not just because they lost weight. There are many different reasons for this. Some people free themselves of food allergies they have been silently suffering for years. These are food allergies they never knew they had! For others, the most important factor is giving the liver a much needed rest. This rest comes from eliminating fat and alcohol from your diet during the Reduction period. Everyone ends up healthier because they have eliminated a toxic load of fat. Everyone has their own specific challenging areas, but usually the diet touches on them, clearing the way for more healthy living.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

What’s the secret to losing a pound a day?

The secret to losing a pound a day is a perfectly designed diet and a homeopathic remedy that helps you burn 2500 – 4000 calories a day. You may recall from your health class that 3500 calories equals one pound. So if you’re burning more than that you’ll lose a pound a day. Over 90% of the people we’ve worked with have lost, on average, a pound a day for up to 30 days straight. Those that didn’t “cheated” on the diet –and then they fessed up. They realize that sticking to the diet is more important than a sugary treat. The food is so good they don’t have to cheat. They get so much satisfaction from eating the food and seeing the scale drop consistently that they keep going with great success.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

What makes this diet different?

IT WORKS: It works–and it works FAST. Lose as much as 30 to 40 pounds in a month. And no, that’s not hype, and there is no fine print with a disclaimer that says something about how these results are not “normal.” These results are normal when participating in The Zola Diet. You have tons of options with The Zola Diet. We suggest all kinds of great meal ideas and you choose what you’d like to eat. If you follow the diet parameters closely, you can expect this kind of weight loss result for yourself. Each morning you’ll get up and weigh yourself and smile! If you like that news, we invite you to keep reading.

THE REBOOT: This diet can Re-boot Your Metabolism. How does that work? I suspect you have probably dieted so many times that you just can’t eat very much without gaining weight. Or every time you diet you just end up gaining it all back. I was like that too. On The Zola Diet I went from being able to eat no more than 1000 calories a day to eating over 2500 calories day and the scale doesn’t budge! No gains. This is no small miracle. When you can eat like a real human again without gaining weight, you can get off the diet roller coaster. Want more? Check out what you get to eat!

THE FOOD: Real food. No eating out of a shrink-wrapped package or a box. You’ll eat real food that you can cook in 20 minutes or less. We call it Eat Like a Gourmet. Look Like a Dream. You’ll be able to eat gourmet food or comfort food. We give you recipes, shopping lists, everything. We’ll even give you on-line cooking lessons if you need them. Your choices. Every meal, every day.

THE COST: The Zola Diet costs less than most of the popular diets. We did a side-by-side comparison of how much each popular diet will cost you to lose 30 pounds. We factored in how long it would take and all the food you’d need. There’s only one popular diet cheaper than us. That means if you have more than 30 pounds to lose (and most do) it will cost you a lot less to go on The Zola Diet.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

What hasn’t the dieting industry been telling me?

The “diet industry” and the “food industry” are indistinguishable. Food processors have purchased the big diet brands:

Heinz owns Weight Watchers

Kraft owns South Beach and Boca (soy based meat alternatives)

Nestle owns Stouffer’s Lean Cuisine and Power Bars

General Mills owns Fiber One

ConAgra owns Healthy Choice

Kellogs owns Kashi (Go Lean)

Unilever owns Slim-Fast and Ben & Jerry’s (ironic?)

The biggest food processors are also the largest purveyors of sugar, starch, soy, sodium, and corn syrup. And their diet food is highly processed and filled with the refined carbohydrates that made you fat in the first place.

As Zola is fond of saying, “Lean Cuisine, my fat butt.”

By being on diets that failed you in the long run, you have proven to yourself that calorie restricted, low fat diets aren’t the answer for you. You need to understand that the carbohydrate wallop of a 190 calorie Lean Cuisine Macaroni and Cheese entrée is 45 grams of carbohydrates. It hits your system and triggers an immediate insulin response. That kind of diet food doesn’t help you lose weight over the long run. It’s short-lived at best.

Here’s another fun fact: The American Obesity Association is a relatively new lobbying group. They are campaigning to get obesity classified as a disease so that the “treatment” for obesity can become a tax deductible item. It should not surprise us that the AOA gets funding from Jenny Craig, Hoffman-LaRoche (makers of Xenical), Slim Fast and weight loss surgeons.

The Zola Diet is not part of the diet industry.

We are team of professionals who decided to share what we have learned about permanent weight loss and getting out of diet jail. This information will save you years of struggle and thousands of dollars on low fat, low calorie, processed packaged foods that make you fat.

Our mission is to provide you cutting edge information to get you as far away from the diet industry as you can get.

The Diet Industry works by getting you to lose weight and then figures you will be unable to sustain it. The diet industry would like you to be on a diet for the rest of your life. We want The Zola Diet to be the last diet you ever have to try.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

How am I going to keep the weight off after I lose it?

One of the truly, most amazing parts of this diet is the resetting of your metabolism.

As the founding dieter, I went from being able to eat approximately 1000 calories a day to being able to eat 2500 per day. No weight gain.

All you have to do is follow the instructions for the third phase of the diet, which we call ZReboot. It’s not difficult. Your metabolism can be set in as short as 3 weeks. The third phase of the diet lasts six weeks to make sure you are set for your new life of eating healthy without having to be so hyper-conscious of what number of calories you’ll be eating. Don’t worry. You’ll have very few restrictions during this period. You’ll be amazed by the flexibility in what you can eat.

I have never found a diet that gives you the tools, suggestions and direction on how to keep the weight off. Every other diet “failed me” in this arena.

This one is likely the last diet you will ever need. That determination will be up to you and your eating behavior after the diet is over, but you will have been handed an opportunity like never before to be able to eat like everyone else at the table and NOT be the one who goes to bed dreading the bathroom scale the next morning.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

Is there a clinic I have to go to?

There are no clinics. This diet is completely self-administered in the privacy of your own home. We send you the materials to get you started and guide you along. You decide what day you start and how strict you are going to be. We will be there to coach you if you like coaching. We give you a forum where you can interact with other dieters as much or as little as you want. We give you a place where you can ask questions of the consulting physician, Dr. Paul Branch. You can contact Zola directly with questions or suggestions.

There are no weigh-ins. No “diet police”. You can keep a diary of your weight loss progress as you choose. We give you full autonomy for choosing what you want to eat each meal on the diet. We give you the parameters and you decide if you want to follow them. For full effect of the diet, we of course, suggest you don’t waiver from the parameters but if you cheat no one is going to chew you out.

We are here to fully support you. We’re never more than an email or a call away.
