• I can't shed any weight no matter how little or how well I eat. -
• Struggle to shed any pounds or even just maintain your current dress size even though you eat right for your body and exercise regularly?
• Complain that even if you ate nothing but air you still wouldn’t lose any weight?
Does this sound like you?
Blame it on: High and low cortisol
Its highly likely you have adrenal fatigue. It’s well accepted that stress and weight gain go hand in hand.
Stress causes increased hunger, constant cravings, and a physiology that is more likely to lose muscle. Cortisol spikes blood sugar, inhibits digestion, and, importantly, and puts a halt to immune activities.
The primary decision the body makes is whether it wants to make sex hormones like progesterone OR stress hormones like cortisol.
What You Can Do
Chronic digestive issues such as constipation, loose stools, bloating, acid reflux, and indigestion can further worsen adrenal exhaustion as they are perceived by the body as stress, and additional cortisol (stress hormone) is produced to help deal with the digestive stress (and more cortisol = belly fat). -
Digestive issues inhibit the estrogen detoxification process in the liver and overproduce cortisol which blocks progesterone receptors. Not good news if you suffer from belly fat.
- Start your day with 1-2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar right away in the morning to improve digestion. -
- Eat 1 small serving of probiotic rich fermented foods daily and
- Take a digestive enzyme (you'll need larger than the suggested dosage)
- Become A Pleasure Seeker
When you add oxytocin-releasing (the pleasure hormone) activities to your daily activities, it helps rebalance the adrenal deficiency. What brings you lots of joy?
