The Weird Reasons Your Fat Cells Are STUBBORN

I want to let you in on something.

And – this information may surprise you!

Once, your fat tissue was thought of as just a holding tank – a storage unit – for greasy, no good fatty acids.

But in case you haven’t heard, research is showing that this may not be the case.

In fact, your fat cells not only carry stored energy in times of starvation, but also produce and secrete powerful hormones that boost weight loss AND improve insulin and blood sugar control.

Your Powerful Fat Cells

When you think of fat cells, you may think of greasy pockets that scoop up fatty acids from your blood.

After they scoop them up, they store those fatty acids for later use - like during exercise, sleep, or when there is little to no food.

However, new research – and new models to go by – researchers are learning a lot more about fat cells and how they function in your body.

Yes, they do store fatty acids for later use - that is one of their main jobs.

But did you know that they are an active endocrine organ?

Endocrine organs produce and secrete hormones that are responsible for maintaining homeostasis in your body.

Organs like your pancreas, for example, produce and secrete insulin that maintains normal blood sugar levels.

Well, your fat cells have a very similar job!

Fat cells release something called adipokines, which are powerful molecules that may control everything from telling your body when to burn fat (or when it needs to eat) to controlling insulin and blood sugar levels.

But that’s not all!

A recent study has shown that your fat may produce AND secrete as many as 80 different proteins which may help maintain homeostasis – or the ability of your internal body systems to remain stable.

When your body is unstable – for instance when there is too much internal inflammation – then cells in your body may become damaged, which could increase your risk for different diseases.

When researchers looked at fat cells, they started to get a better understanding of the different functions that they have in your body.

Besides the 80 different proteins, these researchers found some other stuff floating around:

They found SIX new proteins that are secreted exclusively from your fat cells…

They found 20 proteins that have gone undetected, until now…

And, they discovered 23 proteins – that were previously found to be secreted by visceral fat – in subcutaneous fat, or fat that lies directly under your skin.

Now, you may be asking what this means for you.

How to Harness Your Fat Cells' Power

By now, you have learned plenty about leptin and adiponectin.

These are two powerful hormones that regulate energy levels, blood glucose, and insulin levels.

When you are overweight, your body may become resistant to leptin and your adiponectin levels may start to decrease.

And, simply put, this may lead to overeating and increased weight gain.

However, when you lose weight, you may increase your adiponectin levels, and may even make your body less resistant to leptin.

And this means you may be able to harness the power of these two powerful fat-busting adipokines!

So how do you do this?

Simple really!

Move More…

One of the easiest ways to lose weight and boost weight loss chemicals is to move more!

The best type of activity to do: anything that gets you moving.

If you do not like to run, then don’t run.   Doing activities that you like to do may actually help you adhere to the program as opposed to dropping off and not doing the exercise.

Eat Better…

Obviously, your diet is an important component to any type of weight loss program.

You should include whole-food options, like fruits and vegetables, healthy fats, and lean protein sources.

Try to minimize your intake of processed, pre-packaged foods as they normally contain white flour, sugar, and artificial preservatives and additives.

Get More Sleep…

Lack of sleep has been shown to boost your cravings for nutrient deficient foods, like junk food.

Also, lack of sleep has been shown to raise your cortisol levels, which may also increase weight gain.

In order to boost your weight loss – and those powerful hormones – you need to get at least eight to ten hours of solid sleep per night.

Include These Three Tips

By including these three steps, you may boost powerful weight loss chemicals in your body.

And these hormones may boost your weight loss – leaving you feeling better, beaming with confidence, and looking better in pictures, skinny jeans, or your favorite bathing suit.
