Is weight gain caused by “Slow Metabolism” #2

Can low calorie expenditure cause obesity?

Weight gain is caused by an imbalance of calories eaten and burned.

Calorie intake and expenditure depend, to a large extent, on your behavior.

  • Calorie intake: You can reduce calorie intake by eating less and choosing foods that are low in calories. However, for many people, this is difficult because of a lack of knowledge, low motivation, eating disorders or food addiction.
  • Calorie expenditure: You can burn more calories by using your muscles, exercising, gaining muscle and eating protein. For many people, this is difficult due to lack of motivation, a desk job or a physical disability.

Changing either calorie intake or expenditure can shift the balance, leading to either weight gain or loss over time.

For this reason, sedentary activities, lack of exercise and poor muscle mass are among the many factors contributing to weight gain and obesity.

However, calorie expenditure is affected by various factors and not completely adjustable. Most notably, it is determined by age, gender and genetics.

Bottom Line: Along with calorie intake, calorie expenditure strongly affects your body’s energy balance. Relative to calorie intake, low calorie expenditure leads to weight gain over time

Use of HCG:

HCG is a drug prepared by the pharmaceutical industry for the treatment of infertility, either from the urine of pregnant women or from recombinant DNA.

HCG Side effects:

The HCG side effects one will have to keep an eye out for are related to their prescriptive use. They include the onset of headaches, irritability, restlessness, slight water retention, tenderness of breast tissue, swelling of the injection sight, and depression. There are some rare, severe side effects as well which include the development of ovarian hyperstimulation in females. The latter condition requires immediate medical treatment and is accompanied by the following symptoms: tremendous pain in the region of the pelvis, the swelling of feet, legs, and hands, abdominal pain, abdominal swelling, difficulty breathing, diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, a diminishing of urination. If a user of HCG products notes any side effects it is recommended that he or she cease using the products immediately and that he or she seek out the assistance of a physician.

NOTE: As with any weight loss program, results depend on many factors. The information supplied by Bettabods is no guarantee for individual weight loss. Information provided herein is based on historical research, studies, and results from the many thousands of former HCG (human chorionic gonadotrophin) weight loss clients. Individual success is dependent upon a variety of factors.

Is Weight Gain Caused by a “Slow Metabolism”? #1

For decades scientists have suspected that obese people might have a “slow metabolism,” burning fewer calories than normal-weight individuals.

However, this hypothesis is controversial. A new review was published recently looking at the available evidence.

This is what they discovered.

What is Calorie Expenditure?

Calorie expenditure is the rate at which you burn calories. Along with oxygen, calories are the fuel that keeps your metabolism running.

Calorie expenditure is divided into the following categories:

  • Basal energy expenditure (BEE): The amount of calories used to maintain vital body functions.
  • Resting energy expenditure (REE): The amount of calories burned by the body during rest. REE accounts for 50–75% of total energy expenditure (1).
  • Activity energy expenditure (AEE): Physical activity increases the amount of calories burned.
  • Thermic effect of food (TEF): Eating causes a temporary rise in the amount of calories burned, known as diet-induced thermogenesis.

Bottom Line: Calorie expenditure is divided into several subcategories, such as resting and activity energy expenditure. Together, they comprise total calorie expenditure.
