hey dr. Burke here in this video I want

to talk about the body types I want to

talk about how to differentiate certain

body types I want to talk about the

cause the underlying cause and some

important tips on each body type so

let’s get right into the first number

one is the adrenal body type as you can

see there’s a sagging belly now that

belly is fat coming from a hormone

called cortisol it is not necessarily

diet related it is stress related and

that’s why when you go on a diet

sometimes it doesn’t work until you deal

with the stress part of it and there are

techniques to pull stress out of the

body but I just wanted to point that out

renal cases have problems sleeping they

have problems with a lot of issues with

stress responses feeling calm memory

issues craving for salts and chocolate

the list goes on and on and on but they

mainly have the sagging belly and if you

were to recommend important things the

most important thing is reducing stress

and getting asleep as far as dietarily

they would need to not go on a low

protein diet why because the body is

breaking down more protein instead they

should eat a little more protein with

each meal and they should also have

enough vegetables - given the potassium

they need because they are if it’s lots

of stress they’ll be depleting the

potassium Reserve and they need that

potassium okay just to get the adrenals

recharged so those are some couple a

couple things with the adrenal now and

number two we have the thyroid body type

now if you look at that type you can see

that the weight is all over not in any

one location

they’re just big everywhere but the

thing to know is that if you’re

diagnosed with a thyroid problem and the

doctor says you have a thyroid problem

and we just need to give you thyroid

hormones and many times you don’t feel

any change or lose the weight then that

is a secondary problem not a primary

problem because again if if someone

diagnosed you with the problem

they give you that thing it should solve

the problem so if it’s a secondary

problem you never get better so what

happens what’s the primary thyroid a

primary thyroid condition would usually

come from too much estrogen from having

heavy periods or from the environment it

could also come from a lack of digestive

gallbladder release so if your liver is

not doing well and you don’t have enough

bile bi le that’s a digestive juice that

comes from the liver then you can’t

convert t4 to t3 so you can’t have those

converting activating hormones in other

words 80% of that thyroid is controlled

by the conversion from t4 to t3 through

the liver and gallbladder if there’s a

problem there you won’t get the

conversion and then you don’t fix that

problem you never fix the thyroid so we

got a high estrogen issue secondly we

have a conversion issue from the liver

and gallbladder and thirdly we could

have a stress adrenal issue which is

right up number one so bad to the point

where let’s say youth develop an

autoimmune problem that would be either

Hashimoto’s or Graves again these are

just things to ask your doctor and talk

about because a lot of times they don’t

look beyond the actual hormone issue so

thyroid issues can even come from the

adrenal because most all autoimmune

cases are stemmed from in caused from

the adrenal and that’s why the treatment

for all of them our adrenal hormones

cortisol prednisone that’s what they use

in autoimmune

it’s a powerful anti-inflammatory it

also is intimately involved with your

immune system so anyway I’m just giving

you tips on what could cause potential

thyroid issues it could be a primary

thyroid but typically there is something

that caused that so we want to look

deeper people just don’t one day end up

with a thyroid issue it’s triggered by

something okay now what foods should

they eat if it’s a thyroid it really

depends on what caused it if it’s more

of a gobbler issue they should eat foods

that support the liver if it’s a more

estrogen

sure they should eat foods to support

balancing estrogen so it really depends

them again the source of it now number

three this body type down here is the

liver this is mainly seen in men it’s a

protruding belly

it’s a potbelly but it can also happen

in women as well these cases do not want

to consume alcohol and wine before they

go to bed every night because that

alcohol destroys the liver they also do

not do not do well on heavy protein so

you they do well being a vegetarian with

some small amount of protein but they

need to increase their vegetables

because that is the food that helps the

liver but again we want to find out the

source of where that’s coming from

so instead of treating a liver let’s

just look at the eating and get the

eating straightened out and support it

that way okay the next body type would

be number four the ovary type the ovary

type holds weight more in the hips and a

little pooch below the belly button that

type is more of an estrogen dominant

case and those cases need to support

estrogen balance well what would that be

well cruciferous vegetables are the key

food to help balance estrogen and also

in their food they want to make sure

that they’re not consuming just

commercial food that has hormones in it

they want hormone free type foods

especially dairy and meats and those are

just some general tips on supporting

your body type I hope this helps you

differentiate there’s a lot of videos I

have that go into each individual body

type but I wanted to kind of show you

all of them in one short video I’ll see

you next video
