What People are Saying About the Videos
I love your videos, it makes me and my staff's job a
lot easier explaining the importance of fat and sugar handling to our
clients. We have clients watch the DVDs while waiting for their
appointment. The front desk has the DVDs memorized because they listen
to them as they are on a continuous play which has increased their overall
knowledge. Because of that I used them as staff training to increase
the staff knowledge on the subject. I admire you for doing the videos
and we at Fountain
of Health Alternative Health Center and Spa totally support you.

Mary Toscano has done it again. To compliment her phenomenal
video on sugars and starches, she has produced an easy to understand
video on fats and oils. True to her previously demonstrated abilities,
Mary has made it easy to understand that we all need more good fats,
less bad fats, and how to tell which is which. I suggest that you watch
both videos.
-- David J. Getoff, Naturopath, CTN, Jamul, CA
Mary Toscano has the ability to explain the education
of complicated health topics such as Fabulous Fats and Blood Sugars
in a refreshing and captivating way. She is gifted with being able to
transform health topics into simple, visual formulas that are easy to
understand for both young and older persons alike. Her videos are educational
tools that all schools should use as part of their health programs.

I finally had a chance to watch both DVDs yesterday...twice!!!
Wow,thanks for putting the package together. I have a good base in nutrition
but you filled in a lot of gaps and I love the visuals. I will look
forward to sharing with my Weight Watcher class.
-- Andrea, British Columbia, Canada
Truly eye-opening because Ms. Toscano explained fats
and sugars in terms everyone could understand. I loved the visuals that
reinforced the concepts. There were so many "ahas" for me.
Being a 5th-6th grade science teacher for 17 years I feel these whole
units should be packaged and sold to school districts nationwide. This
is the tool we need to make kids take control of their health EARLY.
I think our district would be very interested.Thank you.

I have been in a 26 year battle with my weight, fatigue,
and finally a 4 year struggle with diabetes. I can honestly tell you
that any GOOD information that I learned was not from a Doctor. The
doctors would just keep adding pills and tell me to lose weight. Your
videos are the best information I have seen yet! I was so excited that
I began to "witness" to my Bible Study Group about the videos.
They were so curious that I arranged a "Fabulous Fats Party"...
They were very attentive to the information and we kept rewinding the
tape so wouldn't miss a thing. I warned them there would be singing;
but that was just the "omega 3 in the Fats", so to speak.
It added to the fun and we began to sing along. Afterwards, they insisted
that I show them the Sweet Fire video. So, what was to be a one hour
party turned into a 3 hour festival (what with rewinding the tape, comments,
"ahas", singing and all...) Everyone left happy, resolved
to change lifestyles, and "full" of information. They were
determined to go home and do some label reading. By the way, many who
were to be there called wishing that they had come. So I am planning
two more "Sweet and Fabulous"parties. Thank you, Mary..YOU
are sweet and fabulous.

I so enjoyed our time with the videos. I learned so
much and it's got me motivated.
-- Cindy, Granite Bay, CA
My wife and I have been in the restaurant business for
many years. I thought I had a full understanding of sugars and fats.
We have several reference books and always read labels.My wife, the
Chef, had all the facts but I learned I did not. After viewing Fabulous
Fats and Sweet Fire my understanding was multiplied several times and
we both were impressed with the simplicity and brilliance of Marys
presentation. Serious information transcends easily with logical explanations
and a touch of humor. We made some important changes to our own diets
and have shared this wonderful information with our friends. We both
say these DVDs are must haves.

My Curves members and employees love Mary's DVD's. I
show them at the Curves facility on a regular basis. Mary has a way
with words and visuals, very easy to understand with her teaching methods.
Thanks Mary!

The talk was very informative and clear. She took a
very complex subject and made it accessible and memorable to a lot of
people... The music was brilliant.. I had no idea how it was going to
work and it shocked me to see that it integrated with the rest of the
talk so well.
-- Doug Michels, Santa Cruz, CA
Fabulous Fats was so fun, inviting, and really well
written---You kept it simple without dumbing it. I am so excited for
people to see what you are doing.
-- Ameena G, Santa Cruz, CA
...One of the things that really turned a light on from
Fabulous Fats is to go organic on all animal products. Ive never
been big on buying organic, but this makes soooo much sense. I dashed
out and bought organic milk (yikes, I cant believe I havent
been doing that all along. I hope I havent damaged my kids for
life!) Thanks so much for that and for all the other helpful information.
-- Wendy S., Seattle, WA
This is Carrie. I'm 13 years old. Im just writing
to tell you how much I liked your video about Fabulous Fats.
I think it was very informative and I learned a lot! It helped me to
realize how fabulous fats are. Specifically what I liked about it was
the fact that you had a song to summarize up what you had just said,
especially the coconut song!! We all loved that! And it really helped
me a lot to understand what you were saying, and it helped me remember
it better.

After viewing Fabulous Fats, we have shared this information
with family and friends. Jackie's mother is 90 years old and just complained
about a high reading on her cholesterol. The doctor doesn't even ask
what she eats. We cleared out her cupboards and refrigerator [of foods
with partially hydrogenated oil]. She says those Omega 3 eggs taste
better and her food feels better in her body. Our daughter cleaned out
her refrigerator and cupboards and our grandchildren are reaping the
benefits. Thank you!

Mary's talk on Fabulous Fats is a "must see"
for any one who cares about their health. After seeing "Fabulous
Fats", it become perfectly obvious to me that the asthma I had
developed 5 years ago was at least partly due to my diet. I've had allergies
all my life, and in an effort to be healthy and active I changed to
a low fat, soy based diet. Then I moved to California and the new pollen
and allergens triggered severe asthma attacks and almost killed me..
A year later Mary presented the clear, understandable,
and obvious facts in "Fabulous Fats". I was fat deprived of
certain critical fats! I added flax oil to my diet, several times a
day, and in a matter of a few weeks my allergies have never been better,
and while I used to need near toxic levels of hormones and inhalers
to control my asthma, now I haven't used them in months!
I can honestly say that I think "Fabulous Fats"
saved my life. Not only did I make good changes in my diet, I understand
why they are important.
-- Steve A., Santa Cruz, CA
I just finished watching both of the videos and would
like to comment. I must say that I have gained a wealth of information
in just a short time. I thought I had a very good diet but now have
changed my dietary habits completely. Your DVD's clearly and easily
show how the bodily processes work and how nutrition gets to the cells.
You have demystified the trans fats/amino acid topics that we hear bandied
about but were not exactly sure what was being said and why they are
important to know about. As an older athlete: runner, surfer, sailboarder,
and mountain biker the information contained in the DVD's will become
invaluable as I embark on my newfound nutritional journey. Thanks, and
I will miss my morning cookies during weight training.
-- Mike P, Santa Cruz, CA
I watched the Fabulous Fats video with my entire family.
My 13 year old daughter benefited the most from it. It reinforced all
the things I've been trying to teach her about everything in moderation
and avoid "junk food". Fruits and vegetables and foods in
their "natural" form are always best! My daughter was so impressed
with the video that she wants to bring Fabulous Fats to school and have
her classmates benefit from the important information provided in this
video. Mary Toscano was extremely knowledgeable and very impressive
with her presentation. This video is important for ALL to see!
-- Carolyn G, Sutton, MA
Fabulous Fats is GREAT!!! I love the music by Dan--a
really nice touch to give us viewers a break from the seriousness of
the program. You had SO much information in there that I must see it
again to get it all.
-- Dorothy E. Santa Cruz, CA
After years of starving myself of fats, I'm not afraid
to eat healthy and balanced again.
