HOW STRESS AFFECTS WEIGHT LOSS

Clients often come to me because they’ve tried everything to lose weight from cutting calories, over training & more. They’re working really hard but the stress they’re putting their body under is working against them. . WHY? Because STRESS causes the body to produce more of the hormone cortisol. . Cortisol is a stress hormone that promotes body fat, especially around the stomach. Cortisol elevates blood sugar levels & stimulates the production of a hormone called betatrophin, which inhibits an enzyme required for fat metabolism. That’s why it’s important to take the right approach to weight loss & NOT an aggressive one.
