While I write this the wintertime has Ontario in an icy grip. My greenhouse is frozen around the corners and the holidays are just ending. I went to the club this morning and – true to form- it’s a new year and the fitness center was crowded. I’m not so concerned though. I know that 5 weeks from now the temporary crowds will disappear again. I wonder, how many people will give up much too soon, blaming a lack of energy as their excuse not to exercise. If you consider that not having any energy is a cause to stay away from work out, consider that if you began to workout you might actually find yourself with far more energy. That’s not just me talking either. Its genuine.

Our bodies produce energy as we burn fuel – usually in the form of carbohydrates sugars, proteins and fats . Sugar burns the fastest, protein lasts a little longer and the longest burning up fuel is healthful fat. It burns slowly, which must be why it’s so very challenging to get rid of, but when we workout, the fats in our body recycle, but they don’t do it alone. Vitamin D recycles in addition to fat, but what triggers the Vitamin D to recycle is exercise. (just a note though, according to Dr OZ Brown Seaweed will help you burn belly fat)

Strenuous exercise activates your vitamin D which in turn activates the hormone insulin, which kick starts your metabolism and then the Vitamin D recycles fat from your bloodstream to feed that fire that was initiated by exercise in the first place and provides extra fuel for more activity.

Its a pathway that is put into motion when you bring that first step to get going. The more work you do, the more physical exercise you’ll be in a position to do (and want to do) and might I add, the more energetic you’ll feel?

Naturally, you’ll also have a certain amount of fat that doesn’t get burned and that is recycled throughout your body in a quantity of different ways, so its a fantastic idea to only eat the healthy forms of fats. Consider, brain cells are primarily produced of fat and so are hormones. With healthy and balanced fats in your diet plan, your brain will be created of healthier fat and your hormones will be better balanced. The same goes for cholesterol- good fats make healthier cholesterol- bad fats don’t.

Each of us call fats the enemy and certainly some fats are very bad for us, but I feel we’re actually our own worst enemy when we cosy up too much to the couch, our remote controls and our preferred excuses. Íf you’d like a little more support in your desire to enjoy extra energy you might also want to increase your glutathione to support your new exercise program.
