Bioidentical Hormones and Weight Gain

Hormones are the missing link to weight loss for many women and men. When our hormones are out of balance, our minds, bodies and lives are also out of balance. At any age, there are numerous causes of hormonal imbalance, such as aging, illness or stress. But, regardless of the cause of imbalance, an impaired condition can cause weight gain and expanding waist lines that are difficult to reverse. Restoring your body's balance may be an important key to losing weight and keeping it off. This is especially true of "belly fat".

Weight gain in the abdominal region can be extremely problematic in both men and women as this area of the body serves as a fat depot to provide fuel for the body's stress response. Excess weight from unrelenting stress settles primarily inside the abdomen and literally poisons your body, increases inflammation, depletes immunities, impairs concentration and leaves you with a raging appetite. This is toxic fat and is different from fat stored elsewhere in the body. Such toxic weight gain from uncontrolled stress can create a life-threatening situation by putting you at risk for heart disease, diabetes and cancer.
