Belly obesity, love to eat potato chips at night...it turns out to be adrenal fatigue! Vitamin D supplementation to combat stress

Why do some people try many weight loss methods such as fasting and fasting but fail? However, some people do not need to count calories and can eat without worrying about getting fat? In particular, most modern people have the problem of adrenal fatigue, with thin faces and limbs, but always fat abdomen, and even a tuna belly. Also, I am always drowsy during the day, but full of energy at night. Chinese medicine practitioners suggest that people with these physical conditions who want to lose weight successfully should change their lifestyle habits and take appropriate vitamin D supplements to relieve stress.

Dr. Yu Yawen specializes in TCM gynecology and pediatrics, dermatology, and anti-aging. After comparing the two systems of Chinese and Western medicine, she found that each had its own strengths, but they could also help each other so that patients could receive complete treatment. Over the past 20 years, she has deeply felt that "the human body is a small universe" and that the solar terms and lifestyle have a huge impact on physical fitness. In addition, you can also experience the application of ancient Chinese medicine culture in life wisdom, such as the stimulation of meridian acupoints.

Adjusting the functions of the internal organs can excrete toxins and waste, and prevent fat from accumulating.

In her new book "You're Not Fat, You're Stressed", Chinese Medicine Practitioner Yu Yawen mentioned that when she came across the "12 Weeks to Slim Life" by chance, she discovered that the nutrition and physiology implemented in this weight loss program, as well as the concepts of food, clothing, housing and transportation discussed in it, were consistent with the teachings of Chinese medicine. Both believe that as long as the functions of the internal organs are properly adjusted, the body will be able to excrete toxins, waste, and excess calories, so that waste and fat will not accumulate in the body, and the mental, physical, and endocrine systems will improve.

By practicing this "thin life" to achieve health, your weight will naturally return to a normal range, and this kind of weight loss is actually an incidental benefit. Therefore, the saying “Healthy people don’t get fat, being slim is just a byproduct of being healthy” best expresses Chinese medicine practitioner Yu Yawen’s view on “enjoying a slim life”.

As long as the functions of the internal organs are adjusted, the body will be able to excrete toxins, waste and excess calories, so that waste and fat will not accumulate in the body, and at the same time improve mental, physical and endocrine function.

Implement the "12-week slimming lifestyle" without starving yourself and do stress-relieving exercises

During the "Enjoy Slim Life" plan, she did not calculate the calories of food, but carefully selected the types of food and the time of eating. Therefore, she could eat dishes with very good ingredients and sufficient portions. She would not go hungry but could reduce body fat. This is a healthy practice that is not hard and can be carried out for a long time. At the same time, try to let go of stress, do some stress-relieving exercises, and use good EQ to take care of your emotions so that you don’t get into an uncontrolled eating situation.

There are many causes of obesity, and they are even complicated. They are not only related to exercise and diet, but also closely related to sleep time, stress, gynecological problems, and hormones. Through the 12-week "Enjoy Slim Life" course, you can learn knowledge that will be of lifelong benefit. On the road to weight loss, you will know how to avoid danger and seek good luck, and develop a physique that will keep you slim for life. Ancient Chinese medicine attached great importance to "time medicine", believing that a healthy body operates according to time medicine. Therefore, the ancients adhered to this concept and were accustomed to living a life of working at sunrise, resting at sunset, and not eating after noon.

People with adrenal fatigue tend to like heavy food and have a fat belly.

However, due to work, modern people's entire work and rest schedule is greatly disrupted, leading to endocrine disorders and a large number of strange diseases. Chinese medicine practitioner Yu Yawen has observed that most modern people suffer from adrenal fatigue, which is what Chinese medicine calls "kidney deficiency, qi deficiency, and yin deficiency." Judging from the body shape, girls with symptoms of adrenal fatigue have thin faces and limbs, but their abdomens are always fat, and they may even have a tuna belly. They often have a cup of coffee in their hands and complain that they are always drowsy, anxious and flustered during the day, but when it is time to go to bed late at night, they become more energetic. They like heavy flavors in their diet, especially after get off work, they like to eat barbecue, potato chips, and drink a little wine.

The time period from 5pm to 7pm is the time when the kidney meridian is in season. If you experience unusual fatigue, back pain, or hot flashes at this time when you are off work, it means you are suffering from overwork and kidney deficiency. This means that your body is sending you the message that your adrenal glands are over-depleted, and you are not suitable for exercising or drinking at a pub. At this point, if you don’t change your lifestyle habits, recognize the source of stress, and release the stress, your path to weight loss will become even more difficult.

Chronic stress causes an increase in cortisol, making it easier for fat to accumulate.

Because office workers are under chronic stress, their adrenal cortisol levels will increase, causing cells to become less sensitive to insulin. At this time, more insulin must be secreted to process the body's sugar, causing the body to fall into the dilemma of diabetes and fat accumulation.

Therefore, if you want to increase insulin sensitivity, you can take chromium and selenium nutritional supplements; if you want to lower cortisol, you should get more sun exposure and take more vitamin D supplements; if you want to keep your body in an aerobic environment, you must get up and walk around or do "Ba Duan Jin" to allow the mitochondria to function normally and enhance fat metabolism.
