The hormonal diet in recent years has been depopulating, although under the name of hormonal diet we find very different diets.

In fact, by hormonal diet we mean a diet capable of rebalancing our hormonal profile.

Generally according to these characteristics.
Increased insulin sensitivity.
Improvement of thyroid function.
Reduction of cortisol and other stress hormones .

HORMONAL DIET: TOO MANY DIETS MEAN NO DIET

However, the fact that there are different diets that go by the name of hormonal diet suggests that we do not know anything about hormones and how they work.

In fact, it is not possible to find low carbohydrate diets and high carbohydrate diets, diets rich in fiber and bland diets (without fiber), diets that aim at certain foods and diets that instead those same foods exclude them completely.
There is no common direction. And this gives a lot to think about.

The other problem with the hormonal diet is that it has become a trend.

When people are unable to lose weight, they think there are hormonal causes behind their weight loss difficulties, even if they are rarely pathological problems.

It should also be said that hormonal dysfunctions that cause overweight and inability to lose weight are rare. We generally speak of rare syndromes affecting the hypothalamus, such as Prader-Willi syndrome. The genetic cause is almost always referred to.

Those who think that a slow thyroid can be a sentence of overweight are wrong.

If anything, the difficulty in assimilating food, a consequence of low stomach acid, can lead to gastrointestinal symptoms or deficiencies associated with overweight, and above all a greater feeling of hunger.

It is not uncommon for those with a slow thyroid to be able to maintain the right body weight by avoiding the foods that cause greater intestinal discomfort and by taking a supplement of vitamins and minerals. 

But as people remain convinced that hormones are causing their overweight, the hormonal diet piques their interest.

In this article we will see what most of the hormonal diets that have been developed by doctors and therefore are not a red herring have in common, scientifically reliable.

Anyone who has hormonal disorders or worries that hormones are making them overweight will benefit greatly from these simple nutrition and lifestyle tips.
