The Simple Reason You Still Can’t Lose Weight

SUMMARY:
- This hormone is vital as it’s the one that causes us to react when there is a danger. However, a continued excess of high levels of cortisol can trigger a series of problems that are summarized in a syndrome called Cushing.
- To get your dream body, you should avoid caffeine, alcohol, foods with high sugar content, sweeteners (especially aspartame), and excess potassium.
- You need to eat more foods rich in phenylalanine such as chicken, eggs, brown rice, broccoli, pumpkin, watercress, and artichoke.
- Don’t forget to include foods rich in tryptophan in your diet. They are brown rice, soy, oilseeds, meat, eggs, milk, and derivatives.
- Train 3 times a week but not more than 50 minutes as too much exercise also increases cortisol. Never train seven days in a row — rest at least 2 or 3 days.
- You need to have between 8 and 10 hours of sleep so that your cortisol levels decrease and the body recovers.
- Look for some technique of relaxation or meditation, and incorporate it into your life. Try yoga or meditation.
- You can take vitamin C, vitamin B5, folic acid, vitamin A, zinc, ginseng, licorice, chromium, magnesium, calcium, St. John’s Wort, chamomile, and oats.
- Stay well hydrated every day, and make it a habit of drinking a glass of water in the morning on an empty stomach and another glass of water before going to sleep.
