Combat Causes of Fat Gain to Achieve Fat Loss and Weight Loss

The first step to achieve natural fat loss to weight loss is to identify and address the causes and contributory factors to obesity. The cure of weight gain or obesity is in the cause. Here are the 11 causes of systemic weight gain:

1. Poor diet that are full of quantity and no quality: Empty calorie diets that are devoid of nutrients and full of unnecessary calories.
2. Sluggish thyroid and sluggish liver. These are the two organs of metabolism that burn excess fat. If they are sluggish or over-worked, the body begins to accumulate excess weight.
3. Hormonal imbalance especially estrogen excess (with progesterone deficiency) and testosterone deficiency.
4. Leaky gut syndrome, poor digestion and malabsorption syndrome.
5. Lack of digestive enzymes called lipase. Nearly 100% of obese people lack this enzyme. Prebiotics and probiotics are also necessary to crowd out the bad bacteria, parasites.
6. Lack of dietary fiber--we need at least 35 grams of fiber daily. Most obese people take far less.
7. Lack of water or chronic state of dehydration. The cells are thirsty.
8. Stress, distress and psycho-spiritual factors. The thirst and appetite brain center lie close to each other and could be mistaken for one another.
9. Auto-intoxication. The fat cells accumulate and store toxins that should have been eliminated from the body. Adipocytes are tiny estrogen factories that produce more excess estrogen that stimulate more fat.
10. It's a known factor that some obese people have genetic predisposition to gain weight.
11. Chronic systemic low grade acidification of tissues and blood. If your body is consistently acidic, the body will refuse to lose fat and therefore there wouldn't be appreciable weight loss. This acid condition also sets the body up for chronic inflammation.
