Weight Loss: Why Diet & Exercise Aren’t Enough
When people say they want to lose weight, they’re usually talking about losing excess fat. The fact is, one must first re-establish healthy cellular conditions for effective diet and exercise.
If you want to lose fat, then it’s important to know under what conditions fat cells multiply, grow ‘fatter’ or shrink. Yes, fat cells can get fatter also. They are the cells responsible for storing the unused calories you consume, so the more calories and less exercise, the larger they will get. What’s more, when a fat cell grows fat enough (3 to 6 times its original size), it multiplies. These new cells, in turn, can get fatter.
But it’s not only eating a high-calorie diet that affects fat cell size. Think about it. If this were the only factor, then there wouldn’t be any of those ‘I can eat as much as I want but I don’t gain weight’ people out there. Teenagers and their enormous appetites wouldn’t exist. So what else affects our fat cells? Cellular health. Our cells fatten up when their cellular receptor sites become congested with chemicals found in the foods we eat and the environment all around us. This prevents nutrients from coming into the cell and waste from going out. This in turn affects your cellular metabolism (also called cellular respiration) – your cells produce less and less energy. Both ATP production and the cellular charge are affected. As you can imagine, it just gets worse from here. Think of how you would feel if you couldn’t excrete your body wastes daily, but had to hold it all in. This is what goes on at a micro level, in your cells. They literally start to ferment in their own waste.
What’s worse is that if your cells are impaired enough, even a normal caloric intake can cause fat cells to grow – so you could be eating a sensible diet and still get fat. That’s just plain unfair.
How do we reverse this process? Basically, we need to get the energy production of the cell back up, get cellular respiration/metabolism back up, so that the cells can start burning excess stored energy, generating internal heat, and expelling waste efficiently again. To get cellular respiration up you need proper cell charge. To get cell charge up you need to supply and move electrons throughout your body. The purpose of Protein Extreme Energy is to supply and move electrons, get cellular charge back up to its optimum levels, and cleanse cellular receptor sites – this is the foundation of good cellular health. GSH-Ignite would be the next step, working to balance oxidative and reductive systems, and therefore increase cellular respiration, all the while protecting against premature aging caused by free radicals (for a more in-depth look at how at how your body produces energy). The end result? Healthy, high-functioning cells that can ‘breathe’ properly, setting the stage for sustainable weight loss.
