An adaptive response to uncertainty can lead to weight gain during dieting attempts - 0 views

  • dieting attempts cause weight gain via providing (misleading) information about the environment to the subconscious systems that control body mass
  • Our model predicts that energy reserves should respond to repeated attempts to diet by weight cycling and becoming greater from one cycle to the next
  • the very conditions that cause weight gain initially—a glut of food—causes further weight gain once cyclical dieting begins

  • There is evidence that among weight cycling, people those who switch between dieting and binge-eating more frequently gain more weight
  •  
    yo-yo dieting leads to weight gain, in part, due to increase food intake in between the calorie restriction phases.  The calorie restriction suppresses metabolic rate and results in muscle loss; both of which contribute to the rebound weight gain seen by so many.

Kent Holtorf: Long Term Weight Loss - More Than Will Power? - 0 views

  • which is a major reason for the regaining of lost weight with dieting as well being the mechanism behind stress induced weight gain (it is not due to increased cortisol).
  • f greater than 10, it demonstrates there is a degree of leptin resistance contributing to an inability to lose weight
  • that it is difficult to lose weight with leptin resistance. High carbohydrate diets and in particular high-fructose corn syrup is shown to significantly increase leptin resistance and is a likely mechanism that high fructose corn syrup is associated with obesity

  • inactive thyroid hormone called thyroxine
  • it is problem inside the cell that the inactive T4 is not converted to T3 but rather to a mirror image of T3 called reverse T3. The reverse T3 has the opposite effect of T3, blocking the effects of T3 and lowering rather than increasing metabolism.
  • Studies are showing that stress and dieting (especially yo-yo dieting) can set this hormone into action as well as chronic illness such as diabetes, chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia.
  • As soon as the body senses a reduction in calories, the production of reverse T3 is stimulated to lower metabolism
  • With chronic dieting or stress, the body often stays in this "starvation mode" with elevated levels of reverse T3 and decreased levels of T3, which is a major reason for the regaining of lost weight with dieting as well being the mechanism behind stress induced weight gain (it is not due to increased cortisol).
  • which is a major reason for the regaining of lost weight with dieting as well being the mechanism behind stress induced weight gain (it is not due to increased cortisol).
  • which is a major reason for the regaining of lost weight with dieting as well being the mechanism behind stress induced weight gain (it is not due to increased cortisol).
  • Studies are showing that such standard testing will miss 80% of thyroid dysfunction
  • ree T3/reverse T3 ratio

    Fantastic review by Dr. Holtorf on reverse T3, leptin, and weight loss

Persistent microbiome alterations modulate the rate of post-dieting weight regain : Nat... - 0 views

  •  
    HFD found to alter gut bacteria with increase in weight gain.  A return to normal diet did not see a return to the previous gut bacteria balance.  Subsequent HFD resulted in a significantly higher weight gain than the first.
