WHO IS BRENDA WATSON?
Best-selling author of The Fiber35 Diet Book

Twenty years ago, author Brenda Watson was overweight, chronically tired, and battling constant health problems. Today she inspires hundreds of thousands of people just like you with her story of personal transformation. By starting the Fiber35 Diet, you are taking the first step on your own journey.

Brenda Watson, N.D., best-selling author and founder of five natural health clinics, shows you how to lose weight and maintain a healthy body weight for life in a new one-hour PBS program entitled "Brenda Watson's Fiber 35: Nature's Weight Loss Secret." Her most recent PBS special, "Brenda Watson's H.O.P.E. Formula", is currently enjoying tremendous success and has created a nationwide fan base of individuals who want to reap the lifelong benefits of High Fiber, Omega-3 Oils, Probiotics and Enzymes. Unlike many popular low-carbohydrate, high-protein diets that encourage dieters to adopt unhealthy eating habits, The Fiber35 Diet is a safe and effective lifetime eating program that uses the power of fiber to lose weight, prevent disease and extend life expectancy. Scientific research has proven that reducing the amount of calories we eat is the only way to lose weight and stay fit for life, and fiber can help us do both of those things. Research has shown that fiber and fiber-rich foods actually help regulate blood sugar, control hunger and increase satiety (feeling full), all of which are essential to losing weight and keeping it off. The Fiber35 Diet is based on getting 35 grams of fiber every day. While it may sound simple, the majority of Americans consume less than half of that number. Too many processed foods and refined sugars have taken the place of fiber-rich fruits and vegetables, leaving many people vulnerable to weight gain and poor health. Brenda Watson created The Fiber35 Diet to share with as many people as possible the importance of fiber in our quest to lose weight and achieve optimal health.

In addition to being a naturopathic doctor, Brenda Watson is an authority on natural digestive support, detoxification and internal cleansing. Her first book, "Renew Your Life" (2002) focuses on how nutrition, digestion, absorption, bacterial balance and intestinal permeability all play independent functions in the health of the gastrointestinal tract and the whole body. "Renew Your Life" also delves into the topics of detoxifying the body and organ systems, improving the selection and digestion of foods, increasing energy levels, achieving mental clarity and reaching and maintaining an ideal weight. Ms. Watson founded Renew Life, Inc. in 1997 to formulate and distribute her own line of digestive care products. In 1996, Ms. Watson started the Renew Life School of Natural Therapies to teach medical professionals the benefits of colon hydrotherapy. The school currently certifies natural medical practitioners and medical doctors from all over the world in colon hydrotherapy and detoxification. During her years of clinical work with a holistic medical doctor specializing in cancer, Brenda Watson organized and educated patients on the benefits of nutrition programs for general wellness. Today, Brenda Watson continues public speaking, teaching, researching and formulating new health solutions. Brenda Watson has two grown children and lives in Dunedin, Florida with her husband.
