Yet despite exercising too thin, reduce calories and avoid processed foods? Nothing wrong with your business. Only, according to the findings of researchers recently, obesity was not only triggered by excess food and lack of exercise.
But, the problem of excess weight can also be triggered by other factors, like genes, hormone disruption and even a virus that enters the body. Here are some facts about weight loss that can help you understand the problem of obesity.
Genetic
Fat gene, hereinafter known as FTO, was first discovered on obese rats. According to the findings of subsequent researchers, people who have two copies of the gene is 40 percent greater risk of suffering from diabetes and 60 percent greater risk of being obese. In addition, people who only have one copy of these genes are also at risk of weight gain. Today, bright Claude Bouchard, PhD from Louisiana State University System, allegedly there are about 100 genes that trigger obesity. “Each gene adds weight in different areas of the body,” explained Bouchard was quoted as rd.com site.
According to the researchers estimate, about 16 percent of the population have two copies of the FTO gene. Was approximately 50 percent had one copy.
The number of fat cells
Some people have more fat cells banyakRentang amount owned by several people, according to Kirsty Spalding PhD from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, could be far different from the others. And even if you managed to lose a few kilograms of weight (or adding a few pounds), the number of fat cells will remain the same. These fat cells will embrace the existing fat in the body and forever will be hungry and asked to fill out. Fat cells from people who are overweight or obese, the light of Spalding, also holds more fat.
Fat cells appear during childhood, but it seems to stop as it reaches adolescence. People who have a lot of these cells, he explained, probably already started to produce these cells since the age of 2 years.
Change your metabolism
The team of researchers from Helsinki University Central Hospital to learn what happens when you experience weight gain. Researcher involving twin pairs (one fat and one thin). Results showed that fat cells in the more obese participants undergo metabolic changes that complicate the burning of fat.
According to the research team, experienced a weight gain of at least 5.5 pounds can slow your metabolism. The more fat you stack, the more difficult to lost it.
How do I lose weight? “The more I learned, I became increasingly convinced that we need physical activity,” explained researcher Kirsi Pietilainen PhD. Pietilainen claims that he was also overweight as a child and now managed to achieve a healthy weight after running regularly.
Stress makes fat
Stress tends to make you rich carbohydrate food craze. In addition, stress hormones also accelerate fat storage. Therefore, try to relieve stress by doing yoga or spend quality time with family.
Condition of mother during pregnancy affects your weight
Smoking habits during pregnancy increases the risk of infant low birth weight and drinking alcohol can damage the fetal brain. The same thing applies to the custom of not eating a healthy mother.
Numerous studies show, sugary and fatty foods consumed prior to your birth mother, also affects your weight after the birth. Studies in mice showed that female rats who are overweight has more glucose and free fatty acids in approximately the womb than female rats that are not overweight. Molecule-molecule This will trigger the release of proteins that interfere with appetite control and metabolic systems in the developing fetal brain. This, according to investigators, also apply to humans.
Sleeping lower weight
Want to trim weight without effort? Try to sleep seven to eight hours per night. Researchers from the University of Chicago report, sleep disorders can interfere with hormonal balance, triggering a reduction of leptin (which signals satiety) and increased the amount of ghrelin (which triggers hunger). As a result, you feel hungry (but it was not), so that trigger overeating.
Weight pairs
Weight your husband or wife also contributed. Wife or husband who slim, according to researchers, will make you more motivated to lose weight.
Virus
Adenovirus is the trigger number of diseases, ranging from upper respiratory problems to stomach and intestinal problems. In addition, researchers from the University of Wisconsin have found a relationship with fat when the virus injects the virus to chickens. Researchers found, the virus has contributed to accumulate fat.
Stem cells, which can be transformed into other cells, also turned into fat cells when injected with the virus. “The virus seems to increase the number of fat cells in the body and increase the amount of fat stored in fat cells,” explained researcher Nikhil Dhurandhar PhD.
Studies in humans, including a comparison of twin brothers, showed that obese people have more antibodies to a particular virus, called adenovirus-36.
