One of the first general orders for all Jim Brown Boot
Campers is to:
Go through both their refrigerator and all their cupboards
and make sure they have a large plastic trash bag in hand.
I have them start filling that bag of theirs with all
sugared and diet colas. They’ve GOT to go.

In a 12oz can of sugared soda, there’s on the order of eight
teaspoons of sugar...EIGHT.
And to make matters worse, virtually all sugared sodas use
High Fructose Corn Syrup.
You hear a lot about High Fructose Corn Syrup, but what’s so
bad about it?
Here’s what:
There’s dozens of studies, the most famous of which used a
couple dozen Gorillas.
For 90 days they put them all on an extremely high fat diet,
weighing in before and after...There was some weigh gain with Group one, but
nothing anywhere near outrageous. They attributed this to their overall high
metabolisms and their tendency toward active movement.
There were a dozen other Gorillas in an identical study, Group
two, with just one variation. In addition to the identical fatty diet of Group
one, Group two, was given water flavored with High Fructose Corn Syrup.
The second group on average gained nearly 35% of their
original body weight.
This in only 90 days.
They still don’t know why. There’s all kids of theories, BUT
they do know for weight gain, that High Fructose Corn Syrup is like pouring
gasoline on a roaring fire.
Diet soda’s are a whole other ball game, but trust me, every
bit as bad for you.
IT’S ALL GOTTA GO!
That’s why I put a Soda Stream Machine in every Boot Camp Start
Up Kit.
It saves a nice piece of change, if you add it all up, works
out to about a nickel a quart.
I myself don’t add anything to my Soda Stream soda and that
works just fine for me. But a lot of people will add a tablespoon of real fruit
juice per bottle, not from a concentrate, the real deal.
Anytime you see “From a Concentrate” on any juice drink,
move on. There’re always sweetened and guess what, it’s always with High
Fructose Corn Syrup.
Campers are allowed to just take an orange or any fruit they
want, squeeze it and collect the drippings, just adding a table spoon to their
soda, making at least four quarts at a time, just to always have them on hand.
They’re under orders here:
“You will drink a minimum three quart bottles a day of Soda
Stream soda a day, every day.”
I have them do themselves a favor and cut it off by no later
than 7:00 PM.
That way they’re not up at 2:00 AM to pee.
