You have weapons of fat destruction. And you are hiding them--probably unknowingly. This explains why your waist is being defeated by enemy number 1: unsightly belly fat.
As a biochemical evildoer, belly fat slowly destroys quality of life. Among men, it yields boobs. It keeps your soldier from standing at attention. Among women, it stores the "junk in the trunk." It smothers sex drive. It zaps life-giving energy. It disrupts mental focus.
Are you ready to obliterate it? As a pharmaceutical chemist, I've uncovered four weapons of fat destruction: human growth hormone (HGH), leptin, IGF-1 and testosterone.
These hormones not only destroy fat, they are also great for living young, building muscle, obtaining vibrant-looking skin and ensuring that your bedroom energy is rockin'. Unfortunately, if you are sporting belly fat, you probably have very little of them, courtesy of surging insulin levels. Insulin prevents your body from deploying these vital fat destroyers.
The only way to get these weapons of fat destruction back on the front lines is to increase insulin sensitivity.
Insulin sensitivity is the opposite of insulin resistance (type II diabetes). Sensitivity to insulin means that you won't have much of the fat storing-hormone in your belly. You will live thin and slim. Insensitivity means that your body is resistant to it and therefore does not use it up fast enough. As a result, you get fat.
To increase insulin sensitivity, do the following:
If it tastes sweet spit it out. I don't care about the mom-in-a-thong promoting the newest health/sports bar. I don't care about the dumb-jock on the verge of 'roid-rage promoting a sweetened protein shake. And I don't care about how scrumptious that organic apple looks. If it tastes sweet spit it out. (Maybe save it for birthdays.)
Eat three meals a day and space them out by four to five hours. No snacking. Meals should be 50 percent healthy fat, 20 percent low-glycemic carbs and 30 percent protein.
Use key nutritional supplements. Among them are cinnamon (2-6 grams daily) and banaba leaf containing 1 percent corosolic acid (50-250 mg daily). The best time to use them is 30 to 60 minutes before meals.
Expose that white belly to God's healing rays! Showering 85 percent of your body to sunlight for 20 to 45 minutes three to five times per week will increase insulin sensitivity while controlling sugar cravings. Skin-damaging sunscreen is not allowed.
