Today I am going to look at Oestrogen and weight loss.

Oestrogen controls fertility and the reproductive cycle, including
puberty, menstruation, ovulation, pregnancy, birth, and menopause in
women is well known and closely associated with the very essence of
being female.
However, beyond femininity what is the role of oestrogen
in our bodies and how can it impact weight control?
So, you are trying to lose weight… How can you tell whether your weight
gain is due to a hormonal imbalance, and not just say a fondness for
chocolate chip cookies?
The first step is to assess the symptoms of your weight gain.
Have you noticed a roundness in your arms, legs and buttocks?
This can a sign that it is high levels of Oestrogen.
So how do you prevent Oestrogen build up?
You should take heed in what your grandmother told you:
Eat more vegetables and natural, unprocessed foods (organic is ideal),
and avoid overly processed products, pesticides, chemicals in your
personal environment and plastics.
You may have just thought that your old grandmother was just stuck in her ways, but there is a lot of truth in what she was telling you.
She was not dazzled by fancy foods, she just used the good old fashioned way of eating unprocessed foods.
Eating processed foods can change your Oestrogen balance.
This causes your metabolism to slow down and it becomes very difficult to lose weight
It is today's life style that is causing you problems.
Try and revert back to some of the old ways and eat more fresh food.
Chances are your grandmother was not over weight when she was younger and there is no need for you to be either.
It just requires a change in how you live your life.
Your grandmother adopted simple foods and vegetables and so can you.
