Evolution on Fat Burning Revealed Part 1: 09/15/2011
 Brief Evolution on Fat: During most of our evolution being fat up to a point was beneficial. People never knew what food availability was going to be like. Their bodies begin to adapt as they stored the food theyconsumed efficiently. They basically learned to survive with an abundant amount of food half of the time while literally consuming minimal amounts of food the other half. These circumstances resulted in a body that could slow down metabolic rate for the purpose of survival. The ability to store body fat helped humans survive through winter by providing their bodies with heat and storing calories. Being fat was necessary to survive. On the other hand being lean meant quick death in times of famine and cold. I often joke with my clients in regards to the above statement (inside joke: if a famine ever comes lean people will be the first to go, while the majority of society will live forever). In today’s society under most circumstances it is not necessary or recommended to be fat. Being overly fat can potentially lead to serious side effects. Women have a harder time losing fat on average than men. Numerous factors can contribute to this situation. Women have lower metabolic rates, lower levels of lypolytic hormones, higher levels of lipogenic hormones, and they seem to adapt to weight loss faster than men. From an evolutionary standpoint this all makes sense. Women were responsible for giving birth so they had to be efficient at survival (in relation to storing body fat for heat and energy during winter months when food availability was limited). Stay with me here, more on the evolution of the fat, I will reveal all my research, tips and more... Add Comment  Okay, see that colourful bowl of your favorite "fat-free" cereal called Fruit Loops there. Ditch it! Quick, that sugar rush will get to you quicker than any cereal, what does that mean? Sugar ultimately can cause fat gain. The seasonal summer fruit, that we all love to eat in the summer... ouch! That is a diabetics dream for cravings BUT a death-wish for insulin travels. The BBQs burgers, processed meat, dogs... there, a popular one, ditch the 'wonderbread' 'wasteoftime' bun & focus on the quality protein instead, not the mystery processed kind either. These quick, colourful foods send us into a blood-sugar roller coaster ride, and for some means ups n downs, weight gain, energy yo-yos, and vicious cravings. My advise, ditch it!   |   Moi:
