THE TRANSFORM BIBLE
INTRODUCTION
Prepare for what’s coming
The discovery that changed the world came in 1987, thanks to Stanford researcher Gerald Reaven. His findings inspired the eating habits outlined in The Transform Bible by Brett Salisbury, C.S.N., who founded his company in 2008 from his garage. In this book, Brett explains what to eat and when, to help you achieve what he calls the "unsustainable" Person 1 body type.
Salisbury says, “To get to Person 1, or the upper echelon of the world, you will be provided with very specific nutritional information about what it takes on a day-to-day basis.”
Alternatively, you can aim for Person 2 or 3 body types—both more sustainable options for a long-term lifestyle, where you'll still look good in clothes and a swimsuit.
For 16 years, Brett sought to develop a protein powder with an exceptional taste that also contained fiber, could be stabilized, and included digestive enzymes.
On August 22, 2024, that dream became a reality.
How far you take this transformation is entirely up to you. This is your Transform Bible, starting now.
STANFORD DISCOVERY
Reaven’s discovery revealed that counting carbohydrates is “fundamentally necessary for 75 percent of the population.”
Dr. Reaven pointed out that 25 percent of the world does not respond to carbohydrates, meaning they can eat as much as they want without adverse effects, typically corresponding to an ectomorphic body type—although there are exceptions.
Why is this important? Because your meals and training will be tailored to your size, shape, and goals. Insulin plays a critical role in that process.
Reaven found that 25 percent of the population is on the opposite end of the spectrum, having a significant response to carbohydrates. This group tends to store large amounts of body fat and typically falls into the endomorph body type.
Fact: One out of every three endomorphs eventually becomes a type II diabetic.
The study showed that the middle 50 percent of the population has a moderately elevated response to carbohydrates. If not managed carefully, this group stores the excess carbohydrates as fat.
Reaven coined the term “Syndrome X,” now commonly known as metabolic syndrome.
Dr. Gerald Reaven was the director of the Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism at Stanford University. He passed away on February 12, 2018, at the age of 89.
