Klee Irwin Prescribes The Non-Diet Chill-Pill
Not only during those extra-stressful times, but also when dealing with your average, everyday stress, you needn't resign yourself to gaining weight. Try simply making a few lifestyle and nutrition changes.
So,
just stress to chill out. Improving what goes into your body, along
with introducing some time each week to get fit (walking for 15 minutes
twice daily) and employing meditative practices (yoga or massage),
make a big impact in stress-hormone levels.
You CAN avoid stress-related weight-gain. Take life day by day. Give up pointless worrying (all worrying is pointless anyway!). Appreciate the positive moments. Stay upbeat, remain motivated to stick to your "new lifestyle" and Dual Action Diet Cleanse program, while on the lookout for triggers.
Now you're enlightened, aware of some new options and tools as well as progressive, natural nutritional support choices...and ready to triumph in the battle over stress-caused weight-gain.
The Stress-Obesity Relationship
Researchers examining "the stress-obesity relationship" highlight the psychological and hormonal mechanisms by which stress may contribute to obesity (Sharma, 2004).
One scientific study using rats suggests that gaining belly fat may be the body's coping mechanism for "turning off" the stress response (Dallman, Pecoraro & laFleur, 2005). Other researchers analyzed how stress hormones seem to activate the brain's reward center, resulting in making fatty foods actually taste more appealing and causing you to eat more during stressful times.
Human respondents reporting higher levels of stress also said that they ate more "comfort foods" - and were also likely to exercise less often - than those reporting less stress.
When stressed:
- You tend to eat more to relieve the feelings that stress produces.
- You aren't careful about your health and may make unhealthy food choices.
- You may be too tired to eat right, sleep enough or get exercise.
- The continuous release of stress-hormones drives you to select particularly fatty foods.
- There's an associated increase in "central fat" (also known as "belly" or "gut" fat).
In contrast to distant cave-dwelling relatives, you live with persistent, unrelenting stress that, unlike prehistoric humans, lasts over days, even weeks. Every challenge to the mind or body creates a demand on the adrenal glands, which release stress-hormones... and contribute to larger waistlines.
