Are you tired of hearing that the secret to weight loss is simply cutting calories? 🧐 Well, in this video, Dr. Jason Fung breaks down why calorie counting has NEVER worked and why it NEVER will! 🚫
Let’s talk about the real reason why we gain weight and how calorie cutting can actually backfire. It’s not just about “calories in vs. calories out” – it’s WAY more complex than that. In fact, hormones, especially insulin, play a HUGE role in how your body stores fat! 🔄🍔
Key Points Covered:
1. Body’s Adaptation: When you cut calories, your body actually fights back by reducing energy expenditure, leading to a weight loss plateau. 😱 This is why calorie restriction alone doesn’t work long-term.
2.Role of Insulin: Discover how insulin plays a critical role in weight gain by telling your body to store fat. 🧬💡 It’s not just about calories, it’s about the hormonal balance that shifts the relationship between calories in and calories out.
3. Circular Logic of Dieting: You’ve heard it all before: "You’re gaining weight because you’re eating too much," but Dr. Fung explains why this is a classic case of circular logic that doesn’t solve the real issue. 🔄🤔
4. The REAL Solution: Instead of focusing on calorie counting, the focus should be on what causes the imbalance – hormones like insulin. Dr. Fung gives insights on how to tackle the ROOT cause of weight gain. 🌿🔑
Forget the traditional methods of counting calories and learn how to fix the real problem behind weight gain. 💥 Understanding your body’s hormonal response is the key to lasting weight loss and better health.
