Hormone Functions
Hormones control just about every process in the human body. They are basically an array of chemical signals which set off different reactions in the body. There are, for example, stress hormones, happy hormones and fat-storage hormones which play vital roles in your mood, well-being and weight loss success.
What we are going to look at here is the fact that hormones play a role in your weight loss and that you can decide whether or not you will allow your hormones to "run-rampant" in your body or create a harmonious, "weight-loss-friendly" environment.
Hormonal Imbalances In Weight Loss
An enormous amount of men and women in our society are suffering from a global trend commonly termed "estrogen dominance". This trend is brought about from a wide range of factors including increasing exposure to plastics and chemicals, inadequate nutritional intake (also parasitic infections) and the aging process itself. All of these things put together creates some alarming changes in the body which result in a decrease of the hormone progesterone and a relative increase in the hormone estrogen. Estrogen dominance causes an increase in thyroid binding globulin, binding the thyroid hormones in such a way as to effectively create a dysfunctional thyroid gland. The degree of dysfunction in the thyroid gland is in direct proportion to the level of relative estrogen dominance in the individual. This resulting condition of a slow thyroid gland is known as "hypothyroidism".
With a lack of progesterone as described above, it doesn't matter how much dieting and exercise you do, you will have a LOT of trouble losing weight. Progesterone production needs to be encouraged in order to balance out the estrogen dominance and restore harmony to the body's hormones to allow weight loss to occur.
