One Thing To Understand About Fat Burning: Calories Are Not As Important As Hormones

Are you always stressing over calories? Worrying about how many you are about to eat. We are going to talk about principle #2 of "The 7 Principles of Fat Burning" and that the effect of calories pales in significance to that of fat burning hormones.

Fat burning hormones? You probably think this sounds too good to be true. It does sound too good to be true but this time it's not.

You may have been raised to believe that weight gain is caused by consuming more calories than you burn. You were probably also told that when you ate fewer calories if you wanted to be smaller than you were at that time. If that is true then how are you going to explain the skinny guy that eats and eats and eats and the fat little old lady that eats a normal portion but still can barely breathe because of the weight on her?

The real problem will be found in more than just metabolism and the hormones that control the metabolism - both fat making and fat burning hormones. So frequently you can start off by cutting calories, and you lose weight at first. But the weight ends up coming back, often more than you had initially lost. The stomach is the region that so frequently bears the brunt of low calorie diet effects. Hunger causes an increase of the fat storing stress hormone

Calories are units of energy in various foods.

It may seem at first as though all calories act the same and that eating less food should naturally cause weight loss, but this lacks an understanding of the way hormones work. We have been told this all our lives, but after all this time it still isn't working. People who say this don't know the basic physiology of hormone interaction resulting from foods. This becomes evident when you consider you've been cutting calories and it hasn't resulted in fat loss. If something isn't working, its time for a change!

HORMONES VIEW CALORIES DIFFERENTLY

Even though fats have the densest calories, they are neutral when it comes to making fat. The biggest triggers for fat making hormones are sugar and refined carbohydrates, even though they have fewer calories. Though it may seem you are improving your health by eating something lower in calories, you might be unwittingly accomplishing the opposite. And, though protein has calories as well, eating the right amount can trigger your fat burning hormones. What is the right amount of calories depends on individual differences, such as body type, etc..

Having the correct weight loss plan for your body type is a much easier and faster and healthier way to keeping the weight off. In The 7 Principles of Fat Burning we not only tell you what to do but we change the way you look at calories, hormones and fat burning so you can succeed.

Your Body Type Diet will give you the most effective leverage over weight loss because it addresses the very things that control weight loss - fat burning hormones.

With your Body Type Diet you are going to be triggering not just one hormone but all six key hormones to create maximum fat-burning effects. AS a result, you not only WILL lose major weight but will get extremely healthy at the same time.
