Hormonal Havoc: Tame the Chaos, Lose the Weight!
Did you know four key hormones could be blocking your weight loss efforts?
Your hormones send powerful signals that dictate how your body stores or burns fat. When one or more of these hormones is out of balance, the effects can be dramatic.
The “Big 4” responsible for weight control are:
Insulin: Manages your body’s glucose levels. When insulin spikes, so does fat storage—especially if it’s out of whack for too long.
Ghrelin & Leptin: These control your hunger and fullness signals. Yo-yo dieting or chemically altered foods can mess with your natural hunger regulation, leaving you constantly hungry or unsatisfied.
Cortisol: Also known as the stress hormone. Elevated cortisol can lead to belly fat storage, disrupt sleep, and increase your appetite.
If any of these hormones are out of balance, it’s no wonder you’re finding it hard to lose weight.
