- All right, so we’re gonna talk about fat burning foods.

There are actually two sets of hormones.

Those are hormones that trigger fat burning,

and them there are hormones

that trigger fat storing,

and this principle really comes into play as you age,

because when you’re young, you have a good metabolism,

you could pretty much get away with anything.

But, when you age, you have to consider the hormones.

So we want to go away from the calorie counting

and focus more on how foods influence the hormone effects.

I’m going to just cover some real key points here.

Number one, protein, all right?

If you have the right amount of protein,

which is three to four ounces per meal,

you will trigger the fat burning process.

That’s why skipping a meal, especially for breakfast,

is not a good thing, because you’re not triggering

any fat burning, you’re actually starving your body.

You’re creating a starvation reflex,

and it’ll actually cause more fat storing.

One of the triggering effects of fat storing hormones

is starvation, or going on a diet,

or being hungry ‘cause you’re not eating correctly.

That’s why, I think, people will say sometimes, like

“Oh, yeah, you have to eat like seven meals a day,” or

“You have to keep eating more.

“I’m actually gaining weight ‘cause I’m not eating enough.”

Well, that may or may not be true.

It really has to do with, are you eating enough

nutrients in the calories.

Because, what we don’t want to–

Basically be starving your body, all right?

What you want, a small amount of protein

anything excess, like, let’s say

10 or even maybe sometimes, even,

nine, 10, 11, 12, 13,

up to 17 ounces of protein per meal,

you go to this restaurant and they have all

this protein, that can trigger the fat storing hormones

and prevent any chance for weight loss.

Just because protein triggers fat burning,

doesn’t mean you can have a lot of it.

Now, the quality is important, too, because

is you start doing like this

soy protein isolate powders,

which is in a lot of the diet pre-packaged foods,

that’s not high quality.

It may trigger the fat storing,

but it comes with the package.

It has a lot of side effects.

It might create tumors in the liver.

It might make you look old as you lose weight.

It’s not the best quality to replace your body tissue,

so I don’t recommend it.

In fact, I don’t recommend a lot of protein powders

that are with the whey or the soy.

Egg protein, pea protein, any of the vegetarian

protein powders are better, but I’d prefer if you have

actual food.

Then, we’re gonna get into this thing called fats here.

Fat, believe it or not, even though it has more calories,

it’s neutral when it comes down to the fat storing

or fat burning.

In other words, having butter, for example,

won’t necessarily just turn into

your hips or stomach weight.

It’s neutral.

However, when you have certain fats like

greasy, deep fried foods,

that grease can affect your liver

and

block

the fat burning process because all the fat burning hormones

work through the liver.

Even though it’s an indirect effect,

you need a healthy liver to burn fat.

So, we don’t want to clog up the liver with too much fat,

but some neutral, healthy fats are totally fine.

Coconut oil.

I’m not saying go out of your way to eat them,

but don’t worry about avoiding them.

Butter is not a bad thing.

Safflower oil, sunflower oil, peanut oil,

all that is totally fine, but the problem is

doing the fast food fats that they would do

in the big vats where you have hydrogenated oils

and all this corn oil and things like that.

OK, so not we got the carbs, all right?

Now, this is interesting, because

in one of the premier

physiology books in all

medical schools and

chiropractic colleges, it’s called Guyton’s Physiology.

This book is like the bible of physiology.

It states that one of the most powerful

triggers of fat burning hormones

is the absence of carbohydrates.

So, it’s not something you do,

its something that you avoid, which is kind of like

something like something you’re doing, you’re avoiding it.

But, you’re not really eating anything,

you’re just not eating something.

That would be the carbs, and I’m talking about the sugar,

refined carbohydrates, and refined grains.

Let’s just talk about that.

Like the hidden things like juice or flavored yogurt,

that would be hidden, or alcohol.

Those are hidden carbs.

The philosophy of everything in moderation

or portion control

doesn’t play into this because all it takes

is a tiny amount of the carbohydrate to block fat burning.

You might not know this now, but you,

unless you watched my videos, but

let’s pretend that you had a cookie, OK?

It’s 80 calories.

You could walk it off in about one mile of walking,

but the insulin response in that one cookie,

if your metabolism is slow,

and you’re getting older, could inhibit fat burning

hormones by up to 72 hours.

All it takes is tiny amounts.

The reason I mention it is because sometimes

I’ll have people who’ll say,

“Well, I can’t, I don’t understand all these fat people,

“they’re so big, it’s so simple.

“All you have to eat, all you have to do is portion control

“and exercise more, and they would lose weight.

“They’re just lazy.”

That’s absolutely not true.

They don’t know this little piece

of information right here.

When you take a carb and you add protein, it really

spikes the fat storing hormones.

Like, if you had a hamburger or a sweet and sour pork

at a Chinese restaurant, or

like some type or protein with bread or sugar,

that is worse combined than having them separate.

It creates more of an effect of the fat storing hormones.

That usually comes into play when you’re

going out to dinner.

Now, MSG, monosodium glutamate,

that will be hidden as modified food starch.

That’s a flavor enhancer, that also will spike insulin

by 300%,

it’s in a lot of junk foods to make the food

taste better than it really is.

This is a deadly fat storing

substance because it acts like sugar almost immed–

even worse than sugar ‘cause it creates a spike

about 300% more than sugar.

So, MSG is pretty deadly if you’re trying to lose weight.

Now, fruits, fruit doesn’t necessarily cause

you to gain weight because of the fiber buffering effect,

but if your metabolism is slow,

and really slow, the less fruit that you can eat…

What I would recommend,

is try not to eat a lot of it, but hit your goal

and then add the fruit in to maintain

your weight.

So, fiber does buffer the insulin response,

so that means instead of juicing,

blend foods so you have all the fiber,

it’s very, very important.

OK, so then we have stress.

Stress does trigger the fat storing hormones.

Now, if your metabolism is slow,

and you’re burnt out and you’re not sleeping,

you should not be doing high intense exercise

because you’re not going to able to recover from it.

Low recovery, no sleep, high exercise,

you’re gonna get fat, all right?

Now, the best sleep, best exercise to do

when you’re under stress or you’re not sleeping

is low intense exercise, ‘cause you will burn more fat

then high intensity depending on your recovery

and your sleep.

But, sleep, in general, does help you trigger

the fat burning effects.

So, sleep is one of the triggers, and

intense exercise is also one of the triggers if

you’re sleeping, if you are recovering, OK?

So, the exercise thing is dependent on

your overall health and your metabolism.

What I did, is I actually combined,

I actually combined all the

hormones triggers for the fat burning

and all the fat store triggers, hormone triggers

for the fat storing effects right here

on one piece of paper.

I summarized everything to make it simple

so you can download this form

in the link below and them read it,

study it, apply it,

memorize it,

then, send me your success stories,

because this really does work if you follow it.

Hope you enjoyed this.

I will see you in the next video.
