Why Keeping Weight Off Seems Impossible

Surprise! As you lose weight, your metabolism actually worsens, making it harder for you to keep the weight off. This happens because your body is working against you to keep weight on.

According to the New York Times, a study on contestants who lost weight on The Biggest Loser show found that they had quickly regained all their weight back and slowed their metabolism. Years later, researchers discovered that the contestants must now burn more calories than other people their exact weight and are worse off.

Here’s how your body fights back against weight loss:

  • Increases appetite and cravings
  • Slows metabolism
  • Holds onto fat and lets go of muscle
  • Stores toxins in fat cells, increasing inflammation
  • Becomes insulin resistant
  • Decreases in leptin causing 
  • incessant hunger

So, how do you overcome your body‘s natural caveman response?

1.  Detox Your Liver – Scientific research shows that Almased unclogs your liver, enabling your body’s metabolism to run more efficiently.

2. Maintain Key Hunger Hormones –  Almased helps balance leptin and ghrelin levels, giving you better control over appetite and cravings.  

3.  Keep Muscle – Almased supports the maintenance of lean muscle, which increases your resting metabolic rate (RMR) and allows your body to burn more calories at rest.

4. Consume Amino Acids – Almased is formulated with high quality protein and the right amino acid ratios to keep your metabolism from slowing as you lose weight. 

5.  Support Blood Sugar Levels – Reducing calories isn‘t enough to lose weight, you must also maintain healthy blood sugar levels to avoid insulin resistance. Almased helps maintain healthy blood sugar so you can keep weight off for good.
