Truth about Weight Loss
Control insulin to lose weight. Doing 45 minutes of aerobic exercise when you're not eating is a good way to lose fat because your blood sugar is low and your insulin is low, so your main energy supply is fat. Weight training is the key to long-term weight loss, not aerobic exercise. Because weight training can improve the muscle's insulin sensitivity, it can improve the body's tolerance to carbohydrates. Stress is one of the leading causes of obesity because the stress hormone cortisol, which is released under stress. Long term over production of cortisol causes insulin resistance and elevated fasting insulin levels. Choose food that doesn't stimulate insulin production as much as possible. Try to choose the most nutritious and unprocessed foods. When you eat, you produce insulin, which is just the amount of time it takes to produce it. Eat more vegetables and meat, don't eat junk food, fine carbs and so on.
