WHAT FOODS TRIGGER FAT BURNING HORMONES

Well, there are safe and natural tactics that we can freely use to manipulate the so-called 'fat burning hormones' for weight loss. In relation to losing unwanted body fat, the best natural tactics for obtaining and sustaining a well-balanced endocrine system are:

• Specific Fat Burning Proteins (foods more like those eaten by our ancient ancestors)
  
• Feeding Frequency for those foods
• Avoiding or Strictly Limiting Refined Processed Carbohydrates
  
• Increasing Muscle (which is your Metabolic Furnace)
• Exercising/Moving more like our ancient ancestors
• Sufficient Rest

If you are unsure what the 'specific fat burning proteins' and the 'refined processed carbohydrates' are, you will find page links to both those types of food listed at the bottom of this answer.

Our human ancestors have been around for about 250,000 years and our proto-human ancestors for several million years before that.

Our genes are 99.99% the same as those of our Stone Age ancestors, therefore, our bodies are designed for the prehistoric Stone Age diet. Mother Nature designed us for those patterns of eating.

Less than 1/10th of 1% of our genes have changed in the last 10,000 years! That is not long in terms of evolution, and many people who are overweight are better suited to that type of wholly natural diet. Until the First Agricultural Revolution, about 10,000 years ago, all our ancestors ate only natural foods.

There were certainly no refined processed carbohydrates in their diet -- those foods did not yet exist. Our ancient ancestors had no alternative but to eat a natural diet. Hence, they were fitter and leaner. Their metabolism was fat-burning (not carb-burning). Their metabolic rate was higher. They had no need for weight loss diets.

The higher your metabolic rate, the faster you will lose unwanted body fat (and be less likely to gain unwanted body fat.)

Replace the refined processed carbohydrates with specific fat burning proteins and take advantage of the thermic (fat burning) effect of these nutritious foods.

Nowadays, unfortunately, many of us are addicted to refined processed carbohydrates. This can lead to food cravings, overeating, compulsive eating, emotional eating, or comfort eating, and unwanted body fat.

Unfortunately, as deliciously addictive as many refined processed carbohydrates are, over-consumption of these foods is a major cause of weight gain, obesity, insulin resistance, high blood pressure, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and many more diet related diseases. Therefore, we need to avoid, or strictly these foods (apart from an occasional treat) if we want to burn body fat and aim for optimum health.
