The Role of Hormonal Environment in Fat Loss
The key to fat loss lies in creating the right hormonal environment in the body, rather than just focusing on energy balance. By inducing insulin sensitivity and upregulating the glute-4 transporter, the body efficiently stores carbs and protein in muscle cells rather than circulating in the bloodstream as high blood sugar, which could lead to health issues. This optimal hormonal environment allows for effective metabolic processes, such as protein synthesis and muscle growth, while avoiding excess fat deposition. By strategically manipulating hormones through diet and exercise, it is possible to direct nutrients where they are needed and achieve a lean physique, shifting the focus from calorie restriction to hormonal optimization for sustainable fat loss.
