How does hormones affect us?
HORMONES – Doc Willie Ong elaborates and discusses hormones that affects us by gaining weight despite the fact of not eating too much fatty and sweet foods.
The hormones of the body are the ones responsible for sending message to another part of the body which is sometimes called as the “chemical messenger” for they provide an internal communication system. They affect processes such as growth and development, metabolism, sexual function, reproduction, and mood. But aside from that, have you noticed yourself gaining weight even if you don’t eat a lot? In some cases, this is also because of hormones.
These are the hormones that actually make you fat:
- Cortisol (high cortisol level increases stress which sometimes unconsciously lead to stress eating that makes you gain weight)
- Leptin (this signals the brain that we are full already but if it resists, we unmindfully just eat way too much)
- High Estrogen
- Low Thyroid
- Low Growth Hormone
- Imbalanced Testosterone
- High Insulin
