FAT LOSS TIP: 2 Ways to Lose Fat
Just listened to a great podcast with Dr. Ben Bikman (metabolic expert) who explained that there are only two real ways to lose fat:
Be in a calorie deficit (yep, probably be a bit hungry)
Lower your insulin levels
Cool part? If you fuel your body with fats (not sugar), you make ketones, which help slow digestion and keep you feeling full.
He also talked about GLP-1—a gut hormone that slows digestion, reduces appetite, releases insulin, and controls blood sugar spikes. You can boost it naturally by eating more:
Fibre
Healthy fats
Protein
Low-GI carbs
Want to lower insulin naturally?
Cut back on sugar and refined carbs
Eat more protein and fibre
Move your body (strength and interval training)
Avoid constant snacking
Sleep well, stress less
Simple stuff, big impact.
