We have had a fantastic question asked by someone who is very interested in starting to use e'Pap... We have felt the need to answer this question here for everyone to see.
It was answered by e'Pap's creator Basil Kransdorff.
Question:
I want to use e'Pap but also lose weight, is it a given that e'Pap will let one gain weight?
Answer from Basil:
There is always confusion over this issue because the e'Pap pictures show enormous weight gain quickly of highly malnourished people.
The most important issues:
You cannot put on weight from such a small quantity of nutrition. You cannot put on weight from good nutrition.
There are two types of weight gain - the one is unhealthy weight gain that comes from storing unutilised sugars which come from refined sugar and broken down carbohydrates and the other is what we call healthy weight gain, which is lean body mass and this is linked to strength.
What good nutrition will do will be that it will improve your appetite and give you better energy and help get many metabolic processes working better. The improved metabolic process will help burn and utilize the excess sugar and also help all processes work better. The issue of how it will help lose weight will depend on what you do with the two new assets you get from improved nutrition - improved appetite and energy.
There is a famous saying - there is no gain without pain!! Sadly this famous saying will apply.
So with the improved energy you need to start some focused exercise which will help burn off the excess stored sugars. What you do with your improved appetite will be critical. If you eat lots of bread and carbs without lots of exercise - the results will be disastrous. Eat fruit and vegetables (as much uncooked as possible) combined with exercise - you can then lose the excess weight you would like to get rid of.
I had a lady who was preparing to be a bridesmaid at her sisters wedding. She shed 10 kilograms in about 6 weeks eating e'Pap and doing extreme dancing every evening!
So, for a healthy porridge to eat in Bulawayo or a nutritious milkshake in Harare who not give e'Pap a go?
