hi guys listen I got this question and I

would just want to answer it for those

people that want to know like weight

loss versus men versus women why can men

lose more weight than women okay so

we’re just going to talk about that for

a second basically it has to do with

just this one hormone right here well

actually two hormones this hormone this

hormone women have nine times more

estrogen than men okay and men have

sixteen times more testosterone than

women

estrogen puts the the fat layer around a

female body it gives the female

characteristics so especially in the

lower part of the body sometimes the

arms breast tissue that’s all estrogen

so what happens with testosterone that

gives more lean body mass so you can see

where the problem is so women do need to

spend at least double the effort to get

the same result if not more effort to

get to the same results but there are

things you can do to speed things up

especially if you have too much estrogen

in the body which is called estrogen

dominance I’m going to put a link down

below but a lot of women have that

especially at menopause not because the

rest region is going higher because the

progesterone is going lower and the

testosterone is going lower making the

ratio of estrogen higher so then you

create estrogen effects and start

gaining more weight so there’s a whole

bunch of things you can do about that

and then the adrenal gland also makes

estrogen too and progesterone so the

Drina gland backs up the ovaries so you

can see this is a whole hormonal you

know problem with that now they also

have estrogen dominance affecting the

thyroid so if there’s too much estrogen

it’s going to inhibit the thyroid

function now the thyroid controls your

metabolic rate for every single cell in

your body so you can imagine that not

not having that to full capacity can

really slow down your weight loss so we

want to minimize the deeper cause of a

thyroid issue and make sure that you’re

not estrogen dominant so you can

actually lose weight fast

okay you won’t necessarily want to

increase your testosterone because

you’re gonna get facial hair and acne

and something called polycystic ovarian

syndrome but the other thing that will

help you is removing even a deeper

hormone that is can you raise this one

as well and that would be you guessed it

insulin okay so if you can actually

really work on that that will also help

the situation and speed things up I’m

going to put some links down below for

some more data but I just want to make

this very short and sweet it’s really

it’s not necessarily your fault it’s

just that these hormones are slowing

things down okay alright thanks for

watching you know I just wanted to take

a moment out to thank you for your

amazing feedback that you guys are

giving me it’s just mind-blowing

the successes the wins I created a link

down below so you can actually type out

your full success story and if you have

a before and after with weight loss that

would be awesome if you don’t have a

success with weight but other things

just put an image of yourself and your

personal success story and I would love

to read it and also share it with others
