An irking vanity conflict – the elimination of that notorious belly fat. It is a struggle too which many exhibit, but little avail.
Q: What perpetrates this excess of stomach fat?
1. Triglycerides: Fats formed from three fatty acids attached to a glycerol molecule – the basic building blocks of fats and oils.
· Consuming excess sugar, starch, and carbs hoist your triglyceride levels
· They are a mechanism to store unused calories
· Storage unit of preference — the abdomen
· This storage accrues to fat
2. Stress: The instigator of the hormone cortisol.
· Cortisol triggers insulin production
· Insulin transports glucose
· Glucose feeds your cells energy
· High stress can induce a surplus of insulin leading to a resistance
· The additive effect of “insulin resistance” denotes your cells are not able to absorb a regulated amount of glucose (cellular energy)
· This elicits sugar cravings (stress eating) — the bodies attempt to balance glucose levels
· This loops back to consuming foods that raise triglyceride levels
· A causation of fat storage
A: Eliminate the cycle and strive to exhibit the body of success.
