What hormonal imbalance does you have? Determine it by your type of silhouette

Why?

A slow thyroid slows metabolism and promotes generalised weight gain. Often, an excess of oestrogen worsens the situation, especially after giving birth.

Solutions:

• Reduce fast sugars (white bread, refined pasta) and focus on lean proteins (fish, chicken, eggs).
• Choose whole grains and avoid caffeine.
• Combine muscle and cardio to stimulate your metabolism.

3. The ovarian body: the pear silhouette

Problem: Do you store mostly fat in your hips and thighs? Do you suffer from irregular periods, acne or water retention?

Why?

Excess oestrogen causes fat to build up on the lower body and promotes cellulitis. In men, an excess of this hormone can cause weight gain in the belly.

Solutions:

• Reduce processed foods, high in sugar and fat.
• Eat light in the evening to avoid overstimulating the sex glands.
• Focus on adapted physical activities: dance, fast walking, exercises of overall toning.
