Losing Weight And Keeping It Off
You might think it difficult to find a workable weight loss program among all the hundreds, thousands (millions?) of diets, books, internet sites, health clubs, etc. Weight loss is an industry. Actually, many of these things often work – temporarily.
But the usual story is you go on a diet and exercise program, lose some pounds, then gain it back. If that weren’t true, all these weight loss businesses would go out of business! What if you could just do a program for a few months, lose the extra pounds and not be concerned thereafter? It doesn’t happen.
As a result of working hard, doing a diet, following a program, losing only two pounds at the end of the month, and then gaining it back plus more, people often lose heart. It can be discouraging to say the least. Being fat makes you feel you don’t have any energy, depressed, hungry all the time not to mention the strain it puts on your body. But it seems like a trap – all the hard work with so little result. Some people resort to surgery, and often that does not work either.
Alternative medicine is getting amazing results on this long outstanding problem of weight loss with an amazing solution to keep the weight off. This medical protocol has been perfected in Europe with hundreds of thousands of people enjoying a slim and trim life with no worries about regaining the weight lost.
This system grew out of the basic research on aging and the part that hormones play in that process. As we get older the endocrine glands slow down their production of hormones. Since hormones govern the basic functions of the body, often things go awry without them, and we get the indicators of aging – things like hair loss and loss of libido and many symptoms associated with menopause and andropause.
Unwanted weight gain also is a symptom of aging, and is directly attributable to particular hormones that the body needs to control metabolism, appetite, and such things as satiety. As hormone production tapers off, metabolism changes and although you may eat the same things you ate ten years ago, unwanted pounds add on.
Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, properly administered by a doctor who is trained in alternative medicine, can change metabolism and give you a permanent solution to the weight loss problem. There is a particular hormone called HCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin) which, when lacking, changes metabolism and causes a body to gain weight.
The healthy diet and the exercise become easy once the dwindling supply of hormones is rectified, because you will have more energy and feel better with a brighter outlook on life. You will be able to enjoy a much wider range of activities and have more fun doing them, no matter what age you are.
