Why Your Belly Grows: It Turns Out It's Not About Diet

It is believed that if a person's belly grows, then he eats a lot of fatty and sweet foods. In such cases, the first thought is to go on a diet.

But the belly can grow even if a person is a long-time fan of the concept of healthy eating. In this case, trouble comes from where no one expects it.

Experts named four main reasons.

Firstly, PP doesn't help

The human body becomes resistant to insulin as it ages. The problem results in fat being stored rather than burned.

Women may have a problem with their estrogen hormone levels.

Secondly, problems with leptin

This is a hormone whose job it is to inform the brain about the feeling of satiety, which allows you to get up from the table in time.

When insulin increases, leptin levels increase, causing it to stop performing its function. This is another reason to give up sweets.

Thirdly, it is stress.

The stress hormone forces the body to store fat rather than burn it.

Fourth, insomnia

Stress often goes hand in hand with insomnia, which again leads to fat accumulation.

That is why many people make a mistake when they start looking for a solution to the problem of excess weight not by going to doctors, but on the Internet.
