It's Not Your Fault You're Overweight
If you are overweight, experience overwhelming cravings or puzzling fluctuations in weight, and dieting has been to no avail, thenovereating or deep seated psychological problems may not be the culprit of your problem. You may have undiagnosed allergies orsensitivities to foods or chemicals that you may not be aware of. Perfume, hair spray, fabric softener, car exhaust, pesticides, smog, wheat, sugar, the smell of coffee, a date with a smoker or many otherfoods or chemicals can all be triggers for cravings, binges and water retention, which can result in weight gain. There are 4 different ways that allergens can stimulate weight gain. 1.
Addiction Many people are overweight because they are actually addicted to certain foods. It's usually one of your favorite foods and one thatyou eat quite frequently. When eaten it supplies you with a fix, an instant lift and relieves your allergic symptoms temporarily 2.Cravings Any irritants that cause allergies can also cause intense hunger pangs. A craving can be for a specific food like as ice cream or for ageneral family such as pasta. 3.The Appestat Switch-Off Scientists have found that certain substances can go directly to the brain and shut off the appestat, or appetite control center.
Normally itshould tell you that you are full and it is time to stop eating, but if it does not shut off you never feel full and thus want to continueeating. This adverse reaction can be caused by anything ?hugging a friend who is wearing perfume, dryer exhaust from your neighbor, or eatinga wheat cookie. If you never feel full or hungry after a meal, your appestat may not be functioning properly. Once you can identify what substances are problematic for you can eliminate them and reactivate your hunger control center.
4.
Edema The most common form of allergic obesity is fluid retention. If you notice that you are heavier the day after you eat a particular food,your body is probably responding to an allergy. Pay close attention to your eating habits, the air you breath and the chemicals and fragrances that you use, looking for possibleconnections between changes in your weight and the kinds of food you eat (instead of being focused on how much you eat) also takingnote of when cravings, uncontrollable hunger and binges occur. Pay close attention to any changes you may have in mood or thought such as: anger, depression, crying, irritability, and inability toconcentrate and think clearly. These same substances that cause weight gain and cravings can also create symptoms that appear to bepsychological, but are really a result of a sensitivity to the food or chemical.
There are several other factors that may occur by themselves or they are frequently found in addition to allergies/sensitivities that mayalso contribute to weight gain, cravings, or intense hunger. 1. Hypoglycemia Low blood sugar is a common problem that many people are not aware of. It can create intense hunger and cravings. By finding ahypoglycemic diet that is appropriate for your body type it is possible to improve or correct your blood sugar imbalance and remove yourintense hunger and cravings.
2. Thyroid Disorders Hypothyroidism (low thyroid functioning) is a very common disorder and often goes undiagnosed. Conventional blood tests for thyroidoften fail to detect a problem. Weight gain is one of many symptoms that may accompany hypothyroidism. The most accurate way todetermine if your thyroid is functioning properly is through the Barnes Basal Temperature Test.
( Another very common symptom ofLow Thyroid function is fatigue and depression.) For more details on Low Thyroid function and symptoms see my other article with thattitle. 3. Candida Albicans Overgrowth Candida is a yeast that naturally occurs in all of our bodies. It is supposed to be there in balanced amounts. Due to factors such as a diethigh in sugars and refined carbohydrates, chemicals in our environment, and the overuse of antibiotics this yeast can begin to grow inexcess amounts and create numerous problems in our bodies.
Intense cravings and hunger for sweets or carbohydrates is one of themost common symptoms. 4. Nutritional Deficiencies Up to 50% of the population fails to ingest the recommended daily allowances of minerals and vitamins. Certain imbalances such as lowlevels of chromium can create hunger and cravings. Low chromium is also a factor in hypoglycemia.
Find a health care provider who is knowledgeable about the issues I mention in this article and work with them. Read my list of recommended readings at my website. These two books in particular.
