Exclusive - Hack Your Own Body: Know How to Control Your Hormones to Lose Weight!

People believe that the cause of obesity is eating too much and too little exercise.

However, experts assert that hormones are also decisive in determining a person's weight. Hormones dictate our hunger reflex, which is the urge to eat. 

Here are the hormones that are responsible in controlling your hunger and losing weight:

INSULIN: 

Insulin is known to be related to diabetes. However, it also determines the amount of blood sugar that is needed as energy or it should be stored as fat. This means that your insulin levels have an influence on how and what you eat.

The liver converts everything to fat when insulin is produced in your body because of taking too much carbohydrates.

CORTISOL:

Also known as the stress hormones which influence blood sugar, cortisol controls the balance of salt and water and regulates metabolism.

Cortisol stimulates the body to store fat surrounding the vital organs. This happens when a person is stressed.

However, this method creates fatty acids which are dangerous in the blood which is the reason of the escalation of insulin and cholesterol levels.

LEPTIN:

This is the “hunger hormone” that is affiliated to the body fat and obesity.

The hormone is from the fat cells and it is also powerful. It also has long-term effect which determines how much food you need to feel full.
