Rewards for donors

• $1000-$9,999 - Glucose-control kit** & complementary registration fee & CR meals++
• $10,000-&-above - Rewards of the first level & complementary accommodations

** Glucose-control kit: glucometer, sample NutriBase software, presentation charts, bibliography. (Bring your own laptop to use the software.)
++ Reception on Friday, two meals on Saturday and Sunday

Topics to be presented

• Calorie restriction and glucose control: tools to slow aging - relevant cellular pathways
• How to break a fast
• Importance of setting a base line
• Meal strategies (including relevant physiology) to activate insulin secretion and/or control glucose
• Provoking cephalic insulin response
• Using a tease meal
• Fat-intake suggestions
• Meal timing
• Using protein to control glucose
• When fasting glucose is too high: Strategy for resetting the pancreatic B-cells
• Selective use of exercise to control glucose
• Effect of emotions on glucose levels and what to do about it
• Increasing mental capabilities - ketones
• Adaptation - positive effects on energy
• Sample measured meals - how to track
• Dietary suggestions

This will be a hands-on immersion* program in which we will encourage participants to experience many aspects of food intake and lifestyle that can result in phenomenal glucose control. They produce positive cognitive effects, and when coupled with CR, they very likely slow aging. CR meals will be served as part of the workshop.
*Actually, immersion means as immersed as each participant prefers.
