SWELLED BELLY, THE 8 POSSIBLE CAUSES
1) Disordered eating and irregular meals: as you know, hormones influence body weight, for example by regulating our sense of hunger and satiety, our craving for certain foods and so on. For this reason, it is always very important to aim for hormonal balance by promoting a regular lifestyle. Hormones are often linked together, for example melatonin, which regulates the sleep-wake cycle, also acts on the hypothalamus, which however regulates appetite. In turn, hormones affect metabolism. For this reason, those with irregular lives see the effects on the waistline.

If you find yourself having bacon because you are busy with work and eat when it happens, it is best to avoid taking medications before trying to lead a more regular and less stressful life. For example: eat meals at the same times, have breakfast within half an hour of waking up, do not skip meals, do not forget to drink if you are thirsty, avoid overeating on some days and very little on others. Even when eating out, limit yourself to a first course for lunch plus a salad and a second course with a side dish for dinner. Eating out for work is no excuse for a rich meal. In the evening, remember to turn off electrical devices, do not go to bed while watching your cell phone or surfing the internet, do not watch TV until late, keep lights warm in the bedroom, walk around during breaks. Will all this shrink the belly? Yes. (Continued on page two)
