The Best Way to Lose Weight
This website would not be complete
without a motivational message from the author
The best way to lose weight is to put your body to work FOR you rather than struggling AGAINST it in the weight loss process. Our bodies were created with hormonal systems to control our weight (leptin and other hormones), blood sugar level (insulin and other hormones), and inflammation (cortisol). However, modern man has done things which thwart the natural balance. We eat highly-refined processed foods and chemically-made unnatural fats and go on unbalanced and extremely restricted calorie-counting diets which, in the long term, can make us fatter. As we gain an understanding of the changes we have subjected ourselves to and the physiological factors behind overweight, we can begin to control of our body chemistry (inflammation, high insulin and cortisol levels, etc.) This will lead to improved health – for everyone, not just those with food allergies and gluten-intolerance – as well as to an easily-maintained healthy weight achieved without the hunger and struggle you may have experienced in the past.
