Stubborn fat occurs when the hormonal pathways are broken. Age plays a role in this: Fat deposits increase and become more resistant to the methods of fat loss as you age. This has little control over them, but some things that lead to stubborn fat development are under its control. yo-yo dieting is one of them. The weight loss crash diets and then recover, often known as the “rebound effect” only increase stubborn fat in the long term. A decrease in exercise and activity level also compounds the stubborn fat problem. So the people that crashed in low-calorie diet and refuse to exercise are often worse than the problems persist fat of all. Our ancestors never had to deal with this problem because they moved and engaged in physical labor as a regular part of daily life, whereas technological conveniences and the modern lifestyle have caused many of us to be sluggish and inactive.
” Stubborn fat is metabolized very slowly and resist the hormonal process that occurs when the fat burning process starts. To burn fat, adrenal hormones (better known as adrenaline and noradrenaline) bind to receptors on fat cells and essentially “open” so that the fat is used in energy pathways. There are two types of receptors in fat cells: one is the alpha and beta others. The beta receptors are much more active and respond to hormones adrenals. To lose body fat, the adrenal hormones switch on and the body begins to use fat as energy. However, in the case of people with stubborn fat, this does not happen, so do not lose body fat. In According to my good friend and colleague Ori Hofmekler, author of The Warrior Diet, stubborn fat has a lower ratio of beta receptors to alpha receptors. Therefore, your body’s hormonal “fat dissolving” the adrenaline is unable to enter the fat cell and open the door. Hofmekler also notes that “for these issues worse, stubborn fat has more estrogen receptors which cause even more stubborn fat.” If all this sounds pretty bad, what is worse is that if you enjoy the typical modern diet and sedentary lifestyle, this often results in insulin sensitivity. (For more information, read my previous article about ” insulin sensitivity. “) In addition to everything else, the adipose tissue becomes so incredibly resistant to your attempts to lose, he seems to be stuck with him forever.
