A KEY TO BURNING YOUR OWN BODY FAT FOR FUEL . .. The practice of #intermittentfasting (IF) &/or #timerestrictedeating (TRE) is quite popular these days & for ample reasons having to do with #longevity . .. To understand how & why these practices work, we need to recognize that all of these strategies; all of these #biohacks if you will, are ways to modify our #endocrine aka #hormone system. The major hormone being targeted & intentionally manipulated through IF or TRE is #insulin, which then modifies #IGF1 & #mTor ; all becoming increasingly understood as major players in #cancer #diabetes #obesity ( #diabesity ), etc. . .. With the majority of the country now being classified as being #overweight or #obese , the latest #diet or quick fix is always marketed to the masses, with marginal & temporary success rates. IF & TRE are not new fads. They are as #primal as it gets in that our ancestors would end up fasting due to lack of #food availability. Today, we don't have that problem & can #eat all day, everyday; & our body, #qualityoflife & #health is paying the price. . .. Another hormone to be aware of #ghrelin This is our #hunger hormone & is released to trigger our #appetite . .. If you are on the continuous feed-refeed: carb -->blood sugar spike-->insulin release -->crash-->hunger roller coaster you probably interact with ghrelin numerous times throughout your day. It comes around. You sense hunger (AGAIN) & you eat (AGAIN). . .. In order to begin to break this cycle; in order to begin to re-sensitize your body to insulin & stabilize your blood #sugar... . AND in order to even begin to harness the #fatloss benefits of IF & TRE, you must experience & embrace ghrelin & the #hunger it prompts. This is your chance to #seizetheday That hunger means your body is out of fuel & likely lacks the #metabolicflexibility to #burnfat ; your own body fat for fuel. . .. This is a process that can be learned. However, you must face your ghrelin & the temporary uncomfortable appetite stimulation it brings; especially in the beginning. Look @ it as progress. Once the body realizes no food is coming in, it will begin to breakdown it's own #energy rich fat for fuel.
