in this next slide you’ll see a image of

four bodies

it’s called dr. Berg’s body types in the

last 13 years I’ve been discovering

different unique factors about people

and their shapes and where they hold

weight and I developed a technology of

body types and in the first body type

you’re gonna see the adrenal body type

that person holds weight in the

midsection and you probably see a lot of

people that you know like this they hold

it in this belly its belly fat it’s

called the pendulous abdomen because it

sags and it hangs in the next shape

you’ll see the ovary body type that’s

the person with the saddlebag on the

side you’ll see a lot of women look that

look like that not men simply because

it’s coming from the ovary so it’d be an

ovary body type men don’t have ovaries

so obviously women that produce excess

estrogen are going to develop that in

the lower pooj and and the side of the

thigh the next body type is called a

thyroid body type simply because the

person has weight all over not in any

one location why is it all over

simply because the thyroid hormones

innervate and control all of the cells

in the body and when the thyroid doesn’t

work correctly the person starts

expanding at every part of their body in

the legs and the neck and the arms so

you can you can now differentiate there

are different body shapes and the last

body type you’ll see more of a belly but

it’s more of a protruding belly like a

basketball and you see that a lot of men

difference between that shape and the

first body is that it’s a protruding

belly and it just you could put a plate

right at the top of it because it sticks

right out and you usually see that on

the guy on the beach with the speedo

he wears he has his potbelly and he he’s

proud of his belly so you have the

adrenal body type which is the first one

which is sagging and that body type by

the way has very interesting

characteristics it’s interesting to note

that if that person has a belly they

usually are under lots and lots of

stress because that’s coming from a

gland called the adrenal when the

adrenal gland does not perform like it

should this person

developing sleep problems lower

tolerance to stress impatient low

tolerance to incompetent people mistakes

errors they’re always thinking 24/7 they

can’t turn it off they crave salty foods

they have calcium problems they can’t

absorb calcium they might crave

chocolate they have problems with fluid

in their ankles if it’s a female they

might get facial hair or acne

other than that they’re perfectly fine

but with that body type they have very

specific characteristics in the next

body type you’ll see the ovary now the

ovary type is mainly related to estrogen

because it’s related to the ovaries in

and every month female goes through a

menstrual cycle so a lot of times in

this body type they have problems with

the cycle whether it’s excessive

bloating excessive cramps irritability

extra weight gain that time of the month

anything related to cyclic problems they

might create ice cream they have

problems with excessive cellulite and

the side leg so that would be about that

body type the next body type would be

the thyroid body type that person has

cravings to carbohydrates specifically

refined carbohydrates like breads pasta

cereal crackers biscuits waffles

pancakes muffins sodas juice things like

that they have hair loss they have loose

skin underneath ur their chin underneath

their arms their nails are ridged

vertically ridge nails they have

problems with cold feet a lot of times

they’re depressed they can’t absorb

vitamins so they have a lot of problems

related to that thyroid they also have a

problem with depression the last body

type the liver is very unique in that

the person’s belly many times is not

actual fat

it’s fluid if you look at the definition

of the word ascites that comes from the

derivation latin which means fluid the

liver is leaking fluid into a sac around

the abdomen so instead of actual fat

they might have some fat but if you do a

body fat testing it’s fairly normal

that person is filled with fluid

they’ll have problems with the right

shoulder why because the livers on the

right side and you can refer to the

right shoulder

they crave fatty foods they like deep

fried foods they have little skin

problems they have little red dots they

had on their skin they have problems

with low back stiffness they have

problems with arthritis their whites of

their eyes are yellow they have bad skin

their their feet are hot so they’re

always either scratching and they have

digestive problems bloating things like

that because the liver can create all

those problems so basically what I’m

saying here not all bodies are the same

each body has a different problem the

problem with me teaching you this now is

you’re going to evaluate every one from

the standpoint of body type so just

don’t mention my name when you’re

observing someone walking on the street

that looks like a liver body type and

just don’t mention oh you’re a liver

body type or your thyroid body type but

the point is that bodies are different

and each body needs a different program
