If your instinct in winter is to hibernate with a cup of tea and a fluffy blanket, you aren’t alone.
In winter, we crave comfort – comfort foods, comfortable clothes, comfy couch.
The problem is that, while a little comfort is fine, too much can affect your health and weight. To really get the most out of summer, you need energy and confidence, which means making the most of winter.
Think of winter as the time you set aside to finally fulfil those weight loss goals that you never got around to ticking off this past summer.
The beauty of living in 2019 is that if you, like many, need a little support on your health and weight loss journey, there are people out there who have become experts in making you the best possible version of yourself.
At the Renewal Institute, they’ve developed the Renewal Institute Diet (RID), which is the culmination of their experts’ years of knowledge in addressing the medical factors that cause weight gain, as well as fat that’s stubborn to shift.
RID is their most successful eating plan to date because it isn’t just another low calorie, low GI diet. It’s also enhanced by supplements, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) injections, and the support of medical professionals who will guide you every step of the way.
RID focuses on the four pillars of health – gut health, nutrition, stress management and exercise – which rest on a foundation of sleep optimisation.
Here’s a breakdown:
- Sleep optimisation – Insufficient restorative deep sleep causes weight gain and may interfere with fat loss efforts. This is the foundation of your health journey.
- Gut restoration – Healthy digestive function will assist with fat loss and help prevent future weight gain.
- Stress Management – Cortisol can cause weight gain and can become an obstacle to fat loss.
- Healthy nutrition – Healthy, nutrient-dense foods will provide optimal nutrition and lower calorie intake.
- Healthy moderate exercise – Regular exercise will assist with weight loss and weight management.
- Detoxification – Toxins and excess hormones (especially oestrogen) are released during fat loss and it is essential to assist detoxification processes.
- Reducing inflammation – High levels of inflammation raise insulin levels, worsen insulin resistance, and lead to weight gain. All the above factors need to be addressed for fat loss to be healthy, successful, and lasting.
If this all seems like a lot, just remember that to achieve optimum results, you have to take a holistic approach to your health.
And besides, you won’t be taking this journey alone.
