Stress Makes You Fat!

It has been proven that stress makes you fat. Different scientific studies have proven that this is true. If you are experiencing a lot of stress, you won’t be able to lose weight easily and you will even begin to gain weight even if you eat very little food.

Those relationships that are very stressful, the work environments full of pressure and even financial problems, amongst others, can produce a state of stress. When we feel stress, the automatic message we send to the body is: DANGER. The human body responds to the DANGER by producing the hormone cortisol.

This hormone cortisol, which invades our body when we feel stress, causes the following effects:

  • accumulates fat mainly in the stomach area
  • destroys the muscles (this creates flaccid skin)
  • reduces the immune system (people get sick more easily when they have stress)
  • increases the levels of glucose in the blood (this is what makes us fat, glucose turns into fat)
  • causes insomnia, gives you difficulty with sleeping (you wake up feeling tired)
  • the thyroid gland function is reduced which in turn reduces the metabolism

It is impossible to lose weight when stress is out of control.

The easiest way of figuring out if you are gaining weight due to stress is by observing the quality of your sleep. The hormone cortisol which is the “stress hormone” is produced only when we are under some sort of stress (infections, pain, etc.) or outside stress (emotional pressures or “dangers” perceived in our environment). Cortisol is an ALERT hormone and this is the reason that sleep is affected when we have had an extremely stressful and agitated day, too much cortisol was produced.

Even those people who are having problems with their significant other or a family member, begin to notice that their clothing fits tighter. This happens because the effects of stress and the production of cortisol begin to accumulate fat and weight gain is inevitable.
Recently, the book “The Power of Your Metabolism” was published. This book reveals all the techniques that have been proven successful to those people that want to improve their metabolism and lose weight and even techniques that help reduce stress. Additionally, you can get help or order this book by calling Relax Slim System (www.RelaxSlim.com) by calling 1.888.348.7352.

As an additional help, natural supplements have been developed to control the effects of stress by reducing the production of cortisol in the body while you are experiencing stress. One of these supplements is STRESS DEFENDER ANGEL. With the help of this supplement the negative effects of stress are controlled and people can lose weight while reducing the fat from the stomach or abdomen area.

When it comes to losing weight, there are no miracles. To be successful, you must improve your metabolism while you control those things which make us gain weight including excessive stress. We live in a society where we experience many social and economic pressures. We are surrounded with technology (cell phones, televisions, etc) but our quality of life has been suffering. Every time we are living life more hurriedly and experiencing more and more stress. This is one of the reasons why the population’s obesity levels have increased over time.

Everybody at every age can lose weight; I have seen it happen in more than 10,000 people. People with diabetes can lose weight and even the elderly. In order to achieve weight loss, you got to do what you got to do. Not doing so, puts us at risk for high blood pressure, heart problems, high cholesterol and even depression. Overweight people don’t just dislike the way they look, they also don’t feel well. There are solutions to the problem of overweight, many of which you will find in the book “The Power of Your Metabolism”.
