As a human being, I struggle with the gross inequities between the nutritional problems of the industrialized world, where obesity is rampant, and the developing world, where malnutrition is a devastating problem.

As a geneticist and scientist, I believe that science has the means to address these problems and inequities.

In 2003, I had the privilege of meeting Dr. Ann de Wees Allen, a pioneering scientist in the field of nutrition and health. She and I have become partners, with the intent of finding solutions to the worldwide obesity and diabetes epidemic.

As a Clinical Researcher, Dr. Allen has spent the last 20 years delving into applications in Nutritional Science for the achievement of optimal health, including the concepts of the glycemic index and cephalic response (the responses of the body to sugars and sweet tastes), and the concept of diet-induced fat-burning (thermogenesis), for which she won the “Breakthrough Product of the Year” award from Success Magazine.

Dr. Allen’s received the first Glycemic Patent ever awarded globally, and her research on the Glycemic Index is considered groundbreaking. A quick search of Google will lead to a plethora of Dr. Allen’s research.

Dr. Allen and I firmly believe that diets are not the answer to controlling obesity and diabetes, and hold genetic-hard-wiring responsible for the ongoing battle against these diseases of humanity. Evolutionary Discordance has provided humans with the ability to create fat-cells at an alarming rate, thus increasing overall body weight, as well as obesity and its ultimate end – diabetes.

How is it possible to lose weight or to control obesity and diabetes if, in fact, we don’t know what’s making us fat ?

The Key Code to obesity and diabetes is the Glycemic Index and Cephalic Response. In humans, these are the two primary causes for weight gain, obesity and diabetes.

Dr. Allen and I, along with our research team at SKINNY SCIENCE ®, strive to discover, quantify, and solve the causes of the growing obesity and diabetes epidemic.

Our research encompasses Human In Vivo Clinical Trials, Research & Development in Nutraceuticals, Pharmaceuticals, and foods, Anti-Aging Mechanisms, Growth Hormone, and Genetic Polymorphisms, such as Sickle Cell Disease and Thalassemia.

Though we lecture worldwide on these topics to scientists, the public typically does not have access to the research. To that end, we wish to share our ongoing research with the public and with other researchers.

SKINNY SCIENCE ® TELESEMINARS

We have come to believe that nutritional education is crucial for all people who seek to optimize their health, as well as for those in the nutritional science fields.

The best format for sharing current scientific information is the teleseminar format.

The SKINNY SCIENCE ® TELESEMINARS that Dr. Allen and I are conducting are designed to introduce our listeners to the important health benefits that can result from the applications of our life-long research and body of work.

We firmly believe that SKINNY SCIENCE ® TELESEMINARS provide a medium that enables us to reach scientists and the public with important research in our respective areas of expertise.

Further, we are convinced that the SKINNY SCIENCE ® TELESEMINAR is a crucial educational tool for people who seek to optimize their health, as well as for those in the nutritional science fields. The teleseminar format is an ideal way to communicate this information to the greatest number of people.

L-ARGININE RESEARCH

Dr. Allen is pioneer in the area of L-arginine research, and began her study of the amino acid L-Arginine in 1983, years ahead of any other scientists. Dr. Allen is solely credited with the discovery that L-Arginine is a Blind Amino Acid ® and that without a Blind Amino Acid Rider ®, L-Arginine can be quite dangerous in humans. Dr. Allen’s research was validated by the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) and the Johns Hopkins Trial on L-Arginine. For this research, Dr. Allen received a Federal Patent.

Dr. Allen’s research on L-Arginine covers Growth Hormone, Testosterone, Anti-Aging, IGF, and nitric oxide (NO). Arginine is one of the twenty amino acids that are the building blocks of protein, and serves as the precursor to the production of nitric oxide (NO) in the body. NO circulates in the bloodstream and plays an important role in relaxation of the blood vessels, contributing to reducing blood pressure and the risk of heart disease.

Considered the leading L-Arginine researcher in the world, Dr. Allen’s L-Arginine discoveries and Patents revolutionized the safe long-term use of arginine in humans. As a genetic researcher, I have been working with Dr. Allen and Dr. Randall Maxey, MD, PhD, in the development of L-Arginine formulas for genetic polymorphisms.

These Patents will forever change the face of genetic poylmorphisms, such as Sickle Cell in Africa and African/Americans and Thalassemia, the most widespread genetic problem in Asia.

GLOBAL PHILANTHROPIC EFFORTS

The SKINNY SCIENCE ® team has been developing inexpensive solutions that address the scourge of genetic polymorphisms and malnutrition, particularly in children. We intend to announce those developments to the world in the near future.

It is our fervent hope, and our intent, that through the application of these State-of-the-Art nutritional principles in the industrialized world, and the development of Edible Computer Chips ® developed through our research, we will be able to support a philanthropic drive to address genetic issues and help eradicate malnutrition in our own country and the world.

The Coordinating Director of the Encode ® Foundation, Debby Krushell, will be a guest speaker at upcoming SKINNY SCIENCE ® TELESEMINARS.
