Water Retention & Bloating
If I had a dollar for every time a client has complained about "bloating" I would be doing this podcast from a Yacht off the Maldives
This is an extensive topic that I have summarized into under 30 minutes :)
The main causes of water retention, the hormones that govern the water in our body and what we can do about the extra pounds it can cause.
First off, I get a little ticked when people say that their weight loss was only water weight
1. On average 7% of your body weight can be EXCESS water weight
2. Water weight looks just like fat
3. Water weights more than fat by volume (bucket of fat vs bucket of water)
4. Excess water retention means higher blood pressure
5. It can be incredibly easy to lose that excess water.
Aldosterone triggered by stress, lack of sleep, insulin, inflammation, cortisol. Aldosterone means that you can not pee out sodium, water follows sodium, so if sodium isnt leaving, neither is the excess water
Anti Diuretic Hormone (ADH) will be triggered if your body senses even the slightest amount of dehydration
Pre Menopause and estrogen dominance can cause annoying water retention for the ladies
Enjoy the podcast as I explain each of these and suggest solutions for all
