Excess weight is a complex, chronic medical condition that requires long-term medical solutions.
Recent scientific investigation has revealed that fat cells work like glands, secreting many potent hormones that regulate:
- Hunger
- Cravings
- Insulin efficiency
- Further fat accumulation
- Energy levels
- Mood and mental focus
- Risks for other life-threatening diseases
The foods we eat, the choices we make, the medications we take, the reactions we have to life’s stresses — all interplay with our genetics and impact what hormones our fat cells secrete and what messages they give to our bodies.
