Belly Fat & Toxins (Insights Here)
Do you struggle with excess fat around your belly and under your arms?
You’re not alone.
Your unwanted belly fat and underarm fat can, not only be caused by excess calories but be a result of toxins from your food, air and water.
Scientists have recently found that toxins don’t just contribute to fat around your belly and under your arms but can also lead to diabetes. (1)
Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, MO — in collaboration with the Veterans Affairs St. Louis Health Care System in Missouri — found a strong link between air pollution and diabetes.
They estimate that globally, air pollution contributed to around 3.2 million cases of diabetes and the loss of 8.2 million years of healthy life in 2016. (2) SUCKS!
However, your body is amazing!
It will protect itself as best as it can when toxins are around. Unfortunately that means more body fat for you!
When your body accumulates too many toxins causing your detox systems to work harder or even be overrun, your body will protect itself by storing toxins in adipose tissue, which is your FAT!
Here are signs that your body may have accumulated too many toxins:
- Fatigue
- Constipation/Bloated
- Memory Fog
- Excess belly and arm fat that won’t budge
- Headaches
- Trouble sleeping
- And More!
Your first line of defense against toxins is your liver!
Your liver is probably one of the most amazing organs in your body. It can regenerate itself with only 25% of its mass. Awesome!
This alone shows you how important your liver is.
Your liver is responsible for filtering your blood coming from your digestive tract. It filters chemicals from your air, water and food. It metabolizes drugs and so much more.
When your liver is compromised you will feel it!
Here are 10-Signs Your Liver Needs A Detox:
- Discomfort or bloating after eating
- Craving sweet, starchy or salty foods
- Struggle losing body fat
- Fatigue and dark circles under your eyes
- Difficulty concentrating/Foggy brain
- Often feel irritable and moody
- Itchy skin or other allergy symptoms
- Often sick
- Unexplained headaches or other pains
- Trouble sleeping
Here are two ways to support your liver NOW:
#1: Ditch the processed foods
Give your liver a break from detoxing additives, pesticide residues and more from your food.
#2: Drink more filter water
I’m NOT talking about water from plastic bottles. I’m talking about filter water stored in your stainless steel water bottle.
These two things alone will go a long way in helping you feel tons better!
