Episode 23 - Eliminate This One Thing to Lose Fat

It’s not excess calories, it’s not chocolate, gluten, or carbs.. 

It’s chronic inflammation - what causes it?

Consumption of heated, rancid vegetable oilsA stressful lifestyle andSleep deprivation

All 3 of these can make fat cells resistant to dying!

1. Limit Exposure to Rancid Oils - What is that?

Canola, Safflower, Peanut, Soybean and Sunflower Oils.Which all contain omega 6-rich, inflammatory polyunsaturated fats. These are commonly used in restaurants and are in comfort foods like french fries, pizza, chicken wings, packaged sushi and even trail mix

Over-consuming omega 6 fats and under-consuming omega 3 fats significantly increases:

Heart diseaseType 2 diabetesObesityMetabolic syndrome or pre-diabetesIrritable bowel syndromeInflammatory bowel syndromeMacular degeneration (eye damage and blindness)Rheumatoid arthritisAsthmaCancerPsychiatric disordersAutoimmune disease

As you can see, a diet high in omega 6 fats is not ideal for optimal health.

What types of oils and fats should we choose that protect our heart and brain and reduce inflammation? Extra-virgin, cold-pressed, organic coconut oil, Extra-virgin, cold-pressed, organic olive oil, along with Grass Fed Ghee, butter and tallow are great cooking options too. Fatty fish—sardines, mackerel, herring and wild salmon—that are rich in omega 3 fats. Along with grass fed meats and avocado.

All of this is done to give you the energy you need to escape from a risky situation - known as the fight or flight response - what I do to relieve stress...Viscous cycle - get stressed, release cortisol, gain weight, crave more sugar, eat more sugar, gain more weight.
