i want to talk about the three

bellies okay if you look around

and observe people you’re going to find

out a lot of people have belly fat but

today we’re going to differentiate three

different types of belly fat there are

three different problems and i wrote a

book about this and i talk about the

four different bellies but today we’re

going to combine two of those in one and

kind of talk about the actual underlying

causes because that belly type is the

same shape but it’s coming from two

different causes and so we have the

sagging belly fat okay

that is either

a problem with

too much insulin or

too much cortisol cortisol is a stress

hormone the next belly is the protruded

belly

you usually see this

with the guy that’s wearing the speedo

on the beach he’s thin but he has this

basketball

pregnant

stomach okay

that is not fat

it is a liver problem the liver is very

very damaged and this person is leaking

fluid

from the liver into a sac

in the abdomen so it’s a fluid-filled

sac if you take one part of the belly

and you tap on the other part you’ll

feel there’ll be a little bit of a

ripple effect okay so that’s number two

now the third belly is more of a lower

pooch

you see this a lot in women but it’s

also in men it’s more of a superficial

fat it’s called subcutaneous fat it’s

not necessarily the fat that’s around

the organs it’s just superficial and a

lot of times it comes from too much

estrogen okay so let’s first talk about

the sagging belly

this is called visceral fat visceral fat

is spill off from the liver the liver is

filling up with fluid and it has nowhere

to go so then it spills off around the

organs around the intestines around the

heart around the pancreas

a lot of times the fat goes inside the

organs as well but this is more of a

dangerous fat because it is obstructing

the function of certain organs

especially the pancreas and it is also

releasing certain

things that are increasing your

inflammation which then causes problems

in the heart it causes problems with

insulin resistance it creates problems

in other organs so this type of belly

is usually coming from too much

insulin which is then triggered from too

many carbohydrates that’s right i know

you’re shocked but too many carbs will

increase insulin and put the fat right

in your gut now just because someone

doesn’t have belly fat doesn’t mean they

don’t have visceral fat there’s a term

called tofi

that stands for thin on the outside

fat on the inside so just because

someone doesn’t have a gut

doesn’t mean they don’t have visceral

fat i just wanted to point that out

now i want to mention cortisol for a

second cortisol is a stress hormone

what cortisol does

is it indirectly

increases insulin so when you have a

sagging belly that effect is created by

insulin which is either coming from

carbohydrates

or stress from cortisol

so

the cortisol makes your belly increase

by triggering insulin because cortisol

increases

the production

of glucose from

non-carbohydrate sources so in other

words it’ll take your protein it’ll take

your fat and turn it into glucose which

then triggers insulin so when you go

through stress

it will increase your blood glucose from

other things

not

carbs so stress and sugar create the

same effect

belly fat and many other problems and

the term for that is called

gluconeogenesis okay the creation of new

sugar now as far as getting rid of this

type of belly do you think exercise

would be a significant thing to focus on

the answer is no

diet you’re not going to see much

results with exercise why because

exercise does not decrease insulin in a

significant way the majority of the

results are going to be from

keeping your carbs low from your diet

now exercise will help reduce stress but

it’s not going to be a significant

factor now if your problem is stressed

there’s a lot of things you can do

i created some videos down below if

you’re new to my channel because so many

people are going through stress and i

have some really great tips on that but

i will say as a side note

probably the biggest source of stress

comes from other people so there are

certain personality types that can keep

a person under constant stress and

unless they deal with that man there’s

going to be just a difficult time

getting rid of belly fat

and the other point is sleep if you can

fix your sleep you can greatly fix your

stress all right let’s shift to the

protruding belly this is a liver problem

usually

cirrhosis

advanced liver disease

and the problem is this has been going

for a long time when you start

generating fluid in your abdomen

your liver is pretty messed up and the

chances of you reversing it

are pretty slim unless you catch it at

some earlier stage

and completely change your lifestyle

things in the future the prognosis is

not very good for this body type i mean

think about it you have the liver that

is so dysfunctional that is leaking

fluid into a sac around your abdomen and

you have to go to the hospital every 14

days to get it drained out not a good

situation now if i was in that situation

and someone were to give me some advice

i would radically 100 percent get on

board and start changing my lifestyle so

it really depends on the person and how

disciplined they are unfortunately a lot

of these cases with the cybes is tied

with alcoholics and they have a very

difficult time giving up alcohol

but number one you’re going to have to

figure out what’s triggering this and

stop that bad habit vitamin e in the

form of tocotrienols okay is very very

beneficial for

cirrhosis which is fibrosis which is

like scar tissue in your liver and so if

you start taking about

300 milligrams of tocatrinos twice or

three times a day that would be a very

smart thing that can actually reduce the

formation of fibrosis and and maybe even

reverse some of that

the other types of foods that you need

to focus on are foods for the liver that

would be cruciferous vegetables

moderate to low amount of protein not

extremely low but you don’t want to go

high protein because liver is damaged

and the person has lost a lot of liver

function to metabolize that protein so

when you overload a damaged liver too

much protein

you don’t help the situation all right

the next thing you want to focus on is

your microbiome your microbes and your

gut

actually make

a secondary type of bile salt that can

actually take the pressure off your

liver and help the liver greatly there’s

another remedy that i would recommend if

i personally had cirrhosis or

late stage

liver disease

it’s called tutcom it’s a type of

biosalt that’s really really good for

the liver i just would recommend it if i

was trying to

deal with this advanced liver problem

now would exercise help

very very insignificant

effect from exercise you’re going to

have to focus mainly on your eating

and avoiding certain things all right so

now let’s talk about the superficial fat

the subcutaneous fat which by the way is

not very dangerous a lot of people have

it and exercise would be very very

beneficial

in addition to

cutting your carbs and doing

intermittent fasting i will say though

it does take a long time

to get rid of that last bit of belly fat

but if you increase the amount of

fasting that you do

and you follow these next

recommendations i think you can speed it

up but many times the person is estrogen

dominant okay so we don’t want to

increase too much estrogen because

estrogen increases the superficial fat

around the body especially in the hips

the thighs and the buttocks so we want

to lower estrogen how do we do that we

avoid soy products we avoid

things with pesticides herbicides

fungicides and we consume more organic

foods we avoid dairy which by the way

can greatly increase your estrogen we

want to avoid plastics yeah that’s right

plastics are in your food the average

person in the u.s consumes the amount of

plastic that equals the size of a credit

card

so i’ve done a video on that check it

out down below if you haven’t seen it

and most of the estrogen in our body

actually comes from

testosterone so there’s a certain enzyme

called aromatase that

converts testosterone

to estrogen and when you have too much

of that enzyme you make too much

estrogen and so you can do a natural

aromatase inhibitor

to lessen the production of estrogen and

take a while guess what foods would be

good for that cruciferous vegetables and

then there’s a concentrated cruciferous

product called

dim that would be a very good thing to

take as well and lastly omega-3 helps to

inhibit that enzyme lessening the amount

of excess estrogen so there you have it

the three bellies so now what you need

is the exact plan of what to eat i

created that in this very easy to follow
