Short-chain fatty acids, abbreviated SCFAs, promote satiety and reduce your appetite.

In this blog post, I explain short-chain fatty acids, how they suppress hunger, and how to get more of them working for you. I’ll even touch on gorillas, explaining how these tiny molecules help gorillas get so big.

The ability to spot reduce fat in a specific area of your body has been debated for years. In my last blog post, I shared a study that got results spot reducing abdominal fat through intense exercise.
But what do you do if intense exercise is not a realistic option for you or your stubborn fat area is elsewhere on your body?
There is a procedure called liposuction that effectively spot reduces fat.

I am often asked how you lose excess fat in specific areas of the body, such as the belly, hips, thighs, and arms.
If you’ve lost weight through improvements to your diet but still have trouble areas, it’s logical to target those areas with exercise. Unfortunately, there has been little scientific evidence to support the idea that working the muscles in problem areas burns the fat in those specific areas.
With that said, I came across a well-done study from 2023 that got results spot reducing abdominal fat through abdominal aerobic endurance training. In this blog post, I share what it takes to spot reduce belly fat.

The Grapefruit Diet. Remember that one? It has been around for decades, and most would simply write it off as just another Hollywood diet that, at its best, is a short-term fix and, at its worst, is a harmful approach to weight loss.
But unlike similar diet fads that highlight a specific food in their name, the Grapefruit Diet allows you to eat more than just grapefruit.
In fact, despite an obvious flaw in its design, at its core, it is a low-carb, high-protein diet.
In this blog post, I share what you could eat on the original grapefruit diet and show you how, with just two tweaks, this fad from the past can become a well-formulated diet.

Insulin resistance is a condition where the body’s cells become less responsive to insulin, a hormone responsible for regulating blood sugar levels. As a result, the pancreas produces more insulin to compensate, leading to chronically high insulin levels that significantly impact your weight loss efforts. This blog post explains what goes wrong and how to break the cycle.

We encounter toxins every day. We eat, breathe, and even make them inside our bodies. The good news is that we are designed to detox because of our built-in detox machine, the liver. And while we cannot avoid every toxin, we can choose what we eat to moderate our intake of toxic foods and drinks.
This blog post shares three dietary toxins in our food supply, why we are wired to desire them, and how leaning toward a boring diet can make you happier and healthier.

While it may seem counterintuitive, aiming to burn fat constantly is not a healthy or effective approach to weight loss or overall metabolic health because our bodies are not designed to be in a perpetual state of fat burning.
A healthy metabolism is one that is adaptable and able to switch between different energy sources depending on the body’s needs. There are times when your body should naturally prioritize fat burning. There are also times when your body needs to utilize other energy sources, such as carbohydrates, for optimal performance and recovery.
By understanding the natural rhythms of your metabolism, you can achieve sustainable and healthy fat loss without compromising your overall health and well-being. This blog post shares three times during the day that your body should burn fat.
