The inability to lose weight regardless of diet and exercise is called weight-loss resistance and it is a growing problem for both men and woman. Weight-loss resistance can be due to a hormone imbalance. When hormones are out of whack, your cells can’t communicate properly and hang on to toxic fat stores. And what’s more, supplemental hormones taken to balance your system do not provide a lasting solution to help you feel better and lose weight permanently.

What is causing such an epidemic of hormone issues that are leading to weight-loss resistance? The answer may surprise you!

Toxins may be the number one reason why many today can’t lose weight or reach their health goals; our toxic world is literally making us fat the water we drink, air we breathe, products we use and food we consume all impact our toxic load and the amount of toxic weight we carry. Consequently, we must take charge of the variables in our environment we control to help reach our best health.

We can think of our bodies like a bucket. Now imagine the toxins that surround you in daily life are the liquid that slowly fills that bucket. With every toxic exposure, your bucket continues to fill. A little here and there isn’t such a big deal, as the immune system was designed to handle a degree of toxicity. However, chronic exposure to chemical, physical, and emotional stressors will fill up your bucket each day, and at some point the bucket begins to overflow. It may take a few decades before the bucket spills over, but once it does, cellular inflammation is triggered, symptoms arise, and disease manifests.
