Hormones You May Not Know About That Are Impacting Your Weight Loss
So you’re doing everything right…
… exercising consistently, doing both cardio & strength training, doing good with your diet – but STILL NOT losing weight?
It’s NOT you. Metabolism, body fat, & appetite – all are regulated by hormones… Hormones that you might have never even heard about!!
Leptin, Ghrelin, & Cortisol are all key players in weight loss… hormones that your doctor isn’t necessarily “measuring” for you. Below I have listed simple, natural solutions to keep them healthy and unlock your body’s natural fat burning.
CORTISOL
Our modern lifestyle including long workdays, low sleep, financial issues, and processed foods are a cause for continuous stress in our lives. Chronic stress is one of the biggest reasons for high cortisol hormone levels, which is tied to weight gain, poor sleep, and hormone imbalances. The main cause of cortisol mediated weight gain is from an increase in appetite. Cortisol production triggers cravings for carbs & sugar – as they offer a quick source of energy – and causes insulin levels to spike (a fat-storing hormone).
Natural ingredients that work:
Sleep and stress management are paramount in keeping cortisol hormone balanced. Magnesium reduces excess cortisol production and relaxes the mind & body by preventing update of cortisol into the brain. Chronic stress can deplete magnesium in the body – so restoring Magnesium levels can support balance and naturally relieve stress.
GHRELIN
Ghrelin is the body’s appetite-increasing hormone. It’s made in the stomach and sends a signal to your brain to say “I’m hungry”. During dieting and/or stress, ghrelin production increases which causes more snacking and over-eating … the opposite goal of a diet!
Furthermore, only women (not men) see a spike in ghrelin levels after exercise – causing us to consume more calories post workout than our male counterparts!
Natural ingredients that work:
Chromium (specifically in the salt form Chromium Picolinate) has been clinically studied to reduce ghrelin levels and its effects, promoting satiety and reducing appetite.
LEPTIN
Leptin is our “weight loss hormone” – our best friend! It essentially does the opposite of ghrelin … it decreases appetite and signals the body to metabolize fat, instead of store fat! If leptin levels are LOW or if our body doesn’t recognize its’ signal (called leptin resistance), you are left with a sluggish metabolism.
Therefore, it’s important to support healthy leptin levels in order to support the body’s natural weight loss hormone.
Natural ingredients that work:
Morosil ™️ is a Moro blood red orange extract specifically imported from Italy. Moro blood oranges have a high amount of antioxidants, anthocyanins, and flavonoids that support weight loss. Morosil, is clinically tested to support fat loss (while preserving lean muscle), when used with diet and exercise. The active compounds in Morosil help break down fat cells for energy and suppress gene expression factors known to cause fat storage – which act’s synergistically with the body’s natural leptin’s weight loss benefits.
A word from Dr.Stephanie…
As a clinician in the hormone clinic (endocrinology), I had many women referred to me to discuss complaints of fatigue and weight gain. Many women didn’t realize that hormone balance is the foundation for losing weight!
With my product HER FITNESS, I have combined herbs & minerals that support healthy hormone balance (including MACA Root, Magnesium, Chromium, & more) with Morosil – a clinical grade standardized antioxidant sourced from Italy for fat burn, appetite support, and a natural energy boost.
Try my products totally risk-free, if you stick with it consistently you will experience benefits (or your money-back!).
