This week’s healthy recipe – Grilled Fish With Gremolata.

Ingredients
1 lemon (for zest, rinsed)
18–20 sprigs fresh Italian parsley (rinsed)
5 fresh garlic cloves
1 cup Italian-style panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
1 teaspoon chipotle hot pepper sauce
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
4 fish filets, 1 1/2 lb (snapper, orange roughy, or tilapia; thawed, if needed)
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon Greek seasoning

Steps

Preheat grill. Peel a few strips of lemon peel, without any white pith, with zester (or vegetable peeler). Chop finely for zest (1 tablespoon); place in small bowl. Chop parsley finely (1/2 cup) and mince garlic finely; add both to lemon zest. Stir in bread crumbs, pepper sauce, and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil; mix well using fingertips until blended and set aside.
Always check fish carefully and remove any bones. Lay fish, skin side down, over an inverted bowl; the curve lifts the bones. Use fingertips to feel for bones that may not be visible. Brush both sides of fish evenly with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, then sprinkle with pepper and Greek seasoning. Place fish on grill (wash hands); grill 2–3 minutes on each side or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (or flesh is opaque and separates easily with a fork). Cook time may vary depending on the thickness of the fish.

Transfer fish to a warm plate and top each filet with a generous portion of the herb-crumb mixture. Drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil; serve.

*Want a 300% gain in STRENGTH? Do this…”

You should know by now that if your goal is to lose
fat and build muscle, it’s absolutely critical to
pay close attention to your efforts to maximize your
production of powerful GROWTH HORMONE (GH) in your
body.

Released from your pituitary gland, growth hormone
production peaks around puberty…

…but then slowly FADES AWAY as we age.

This is one of the reasons we get all “saggy” as we
get older. (Sucks, eh?)

You’ve probably seen some of the “Hollywood Insider”
stories about all the rich movie stars hitting their
doctor up for injectable GH to “stay young”.

=====================================

But they’re about to learn a SAD, SAD FACT…

=====================================

While artificial GH supplementation DOES increase
lean muscle, melt away the fat, and make you look
and feel “younger”…

Joint and muscle pain can eventually occur from
artificial stimulation and once you stop taking it,
all benefits go bye-bye.

However, if done correctly, research has shown that
NATURALLY stimulating growth hormone can pay off with
big dividends in a short period of time.

In fact, one university study from Denmark found that
a 9-week program designed to naturally stimulate GH
release resulted in…

=====================================

…strength gains 300% over normal!

=====================================

Adding to that, men following the program increase
arm strength by a whopping 37% compared with only
9% by the “control group” who only followed a
“non-GH-stimulation” program.

And remember, these GH increases were activated NOT
by injected hormone…

…but by completely NATURAL means!

Now you can see why everyone is flocking to my friend,
Jeff Anderson’s program “Optimum Anabolics” at:

Jeff has uncovered a series of studies (dating back
to 1975!) that reveal how to SAFELY increase anabolic
hormone activity within your body using his
breakthrough…

…”natural hormone triggering”!

=====================================

Here’s just ONE of the methods from his book…

=====================================

Jeff uncovered a research project from Loughborough
University that put a group of athletes through a
short series of 30-second sprints after their workouts.

What they discovered was that growth hormone levels
SKYROCKETED 25 TIMES THEIR RESTING LEVELS approximately
30 minutes after training!

25 TIME…NATURALLY?

Can you imagine the changes you’d see in just a short
time from this kind of FLOOD of powerful GH?

So at the end of your workout, do three to six 30-second
sprints on your gym’s track or on the road to finish off
the day and set yourself up for peak GH output.

Jeff’s incorporated this into the Optimum Anabolics program
as a compliment to his unique WEIGHT TRAINING system at:
Naturally Increase GH

You see, Optimum Anabolics uses a unique 7 cycle weight
training program in which you manipulate what he calls…

=====================================

…the “8 Anabolic Factors”!

=====================================

Through his targeted approach, you’ll literally PROGRAM
your body (like a computer!) to NATURALLY jack up your
body’s muscle-building hormones.

You’ll GAIN MUSCLE…

You’ll BLAST away ugly FAT…

You’ll have “ANIMAL INTENSITY” in the gym…

You’ll be a “walking anabolic hormone factory”!

Go get all the details at the Optimum Anabolics website

Go there now because today is the LAST DAY of his big
release, ok?

Once you see the “before & after” photos of guys just
like YOU who have benefited from this revolutionary
discovery, you’re going to want to start training TOMORROW
with these techniques!

I promise! ;-)

The “Cost” of Eating Healthy

[ Note: Here is another great article from my friend, fitness & nutrition expert Jon Benson. ]

One of the biggest myths out there is the myth that eating healthy costs too much.

Just the opposite… and I’ll prove it to you in three ways.

#1: Cash

Here’s some sample figures courtesy of my friend Scott Tousignant’s fitness blog…

2 medium size sweet potatoes $1 or… small fries from a fast food joint

2 red peppers $1 or… a can of pop

Bowl of oatmeal with fruit & protein powder $2 or… large bag of chips

6 Chicken Breasts $10 or… a sub combo from a fast food joint

18 eggs $3.50 or… a burger from a fast food joint

2 salmon fillets $15 or… large pizza

Loaded chicken salad (homemade) $3 or… bag of cookies

Large bag of oatmeal $3.50 or… 4 chocolate bars

Not much of a comparison, it is?

Yet the foods on the left would feed a family of two or more for 4-7 days… the foods on the right? 2-3 days if you live through it.

Tips to make the most expensive part of eating healthy — the cost of quality meats — go further include…

1. Use tofu fillers in chicken and beef recipes. Even if you hate tofu, you can barely taste the difference when combined properly.

2. Buy your meats in bulk online. You can find less expensive grass-fed beef and naturally-raised chicken and have it delivered to you if you live near a large city. If not, check the local farmers.

3. Eat meat only 3-4 times per week and use black beans with rice or inexpensive tuna for your other days. I eat tuna cooked in a skillet with lots of veggies and some olive oil almost every night and I LOVE the taste!

My book The Every Other Day Diet has over 40 pages of recipes in it to help you eat healthy and cheap… and you can still eat out and consume your favorite foods several times per week.

#2: Your Health

Do we ‘really’ need to talk about buy new (usually larger) clothes every year or two? Or about the health care costs associated with being even 20 pounds over your ideal weight, let alone more? How about the time you miss from work with excessive colds?

Eating healthy and taking care of your body adds years to your life… and for the record, the years eating poorly takes away from your life, on average, costs each American over 80,000 in medical expenses.

Want to add that to your food budget?

#3: The Big Picture

Anyone who has been fit knows the joy it brings… the freedom you feel from wearing whatever you want… the productivity you see from increased energy… the pace at which you move during the day.

Not only are these gifts priceless, but they are also massive cash-savers. Your productivity alone can add thousands to your bottom line each year, well off-setting any costs associated with eating quality food.

The Bottom Line…

Like any good accountant would suggest, you need to look at your ROI (return on investment) if nothing else.

What does investing in a better body, greater health, and vibrant energy do for your life? How can that actually translate into more income AND less expense?

You will be surprised.

Remember:
Don’t Quit. Get Fit!
