Ori Hofmekler author of the Anti-Estrogenic Diet and The Warrior Diet, shares some killer info about stubborn fat and what fatloss supplements work to eliminate it, especially stubborn belly fat. You'll be amazed to find out that it's not fat burners, cortisol blockers, carb or fat blockers, or all the other ridiculous, dangerous, and expensive stuff marketed on t.v. and online.
What Is Stubborn Fat?
According to Ori, "stubborn fat is a slow-metabolized adipose (fat) tissue. It doesn't have a high enough ratio of beta receptors (more active ones that respond to adrenal hormones that activate fat burning) to alpha receptors so it doesn't respond to adrenal fat-burning stimulation. It also has more estrogen receptors, which accelerate fat gain and on top of this, it doesn't have a healthy blood circulation (fewer blood vessels than normal fat tissue) so this fat metabolizes at a much slower pace". Most supplements on the market don't address any of these issues. They are simply loaded with stimulants that do nothing but increase your heart rate. The best way to burn stubborn fat is to attack it from every possible angle.
Here's what Ori recommends to burn stubborn fat.
- Natural Estrogen Blockers Including Citrus bioflavonoids (the white spongy layer of citrus peal) and Soy flavones found in flaxseed oil. These 2 combined are a potent combination that block the estrogenic-effect that contributes to fat gain, bloating, and water retention.
- Anti-Aromatase Nutrients Including Quercetin, Lignans also found in flaxseed oil, and Stinging Nettle. These work with the natural estrogen blockers listed above to prevent fat tissue from producing aromatase enzymes which convert testosterone (fatloss hormone) into estrogen (fat gain hormone).
- Liver Detoxifiers Including Indole 3 (also found in cruciferous veggies), Milk Thistle, Dandelion Root, and Same. These help the liver break down and/or neutralize toxins that would otherwise get stored as stubborn fat.
- Alpha Antagonists Including Yohimbe Bark which blocks alpha receptors and causing adrenal hormones to bind to the beta receptors that activate fat burning. This supplement is actually not recommended for people who suffer from high blood pressure, and heart or thyroid conditions.
