In this video, you'll discover the fastest way to lose fat naturally and I'll show you
how to accomplish this goal without exercise.
So, you want to lose some weight, you want
to cut down on that belly fat, you want to have a body that you're truly proud of and
one of the things that happens, you start talking to your friends, you start searching
on the internet, you find things like well, you need to join a boot camp, you need to
get a gym membership, you need to have a personal trainer, you need to double down on exercise.
We see that so often, and so what I want to do in this video is make it simple for you.
We're gonna talk about the best methods that you can utilize in order
to start cutting that fat off your body, and at the end we'll talk about whether or not
exercise is even important anyway, and so let's get started, but before we do, I’m
Dr. Zyrowski and welcome to the channel. If you're new to the channel, it's a pleasure
to have you here. Be sure to subscribe. Hit that bell notification and be sure to join
our notification community. I’m gonna help you excel your health and your life. Let's
dive into our first topic here. And that is the topic of inflammation. Now when we look
at inflammation, you're probably thinking to yourself, well, do I have this going on
in my body? And the truth is if you have excess fat on your body there's a good chance that
there are some inflammatory problems going on. Then you might look at it and go, Well,
what does this have to do with weight loss? Well, it has everything to do with weight
loss because if you have chronic inflammation in the body then the body just doesn't function
as it should. And let's take the topic of insulin resistance, for instance, now, when
we look at insulin resistance, maybe people are familiar with this conversation when we
look at it from an endocrinology perspective, right? But if we look at insulin resistance
from another professions perspective and immunological perspective essentially what you're going
to find is that they're gonna say, well you probably have insulin resistance because the
cells’ inflamed, the cell receptors’ inflame. They aren't working correctly. There's a chronic
inflammation problem going on within the body. Alright, so kind of depending on what scope
we look at it through we're gonna get a completely different ideology behind it. But the truth
is is that when it comes to a chronic inflammatory problem it can cause all kinds of havoc in
the body. It can cause thyroid disruption, gut disruption, insulin resistance, many major
issues that you're probably not even aware of. So, what we want to do is we want to work
on reducing chronic inflammation. It’s gonna help improve cell receptor sensitivity. It’s
gonna also do some other great things for you, like reduce pain. It's also going to
help improve total body function, right? Because when it comes to weight loss it's not just
about insulin and metabolic hormones. It's about the thyroid. It's about the brain. It's
about everything and then we're also going to reduce the risk of chronic disease by reducing
inflammation because problems like heart disease, cancer, and all these other major diseases
that people are facing are highly related to an inflammatory problem. So, one of the
things we can do is, first of all, we can clean up our diet, which we'll get to more
about that in just a moment, but we can also go and use different nutritional herbs in
order to accomplish this goal. Some of my favorites are things like ginger, turmeric,
Boswellia. And what I'll do is I'll put a link in the description to a formula that
I use in my clinic that has really helped people reduce inflammation and get great results.
But it's very important to reduce inflammation if we want to lose weight. Now, let's talk
about the next topic and that's become insulin sensitive. Now, this is a good question, you
know am I insulin sensitive, am I insulin resistant, good topic. But here's the deal,
if you are not able to lose weight, if you have a bunch of fat on your body, you're struggling
with this whole thing. Then there's a good chance that you have a problem with insulin
resistance. Now, one of the things that you can do to quickly realize if you have insulin
resistance issue, right, this isn't the only way, this isn't the end-all-be-all, but it's
one way that you can look at it. Look at your daily life and monitor and really understand
it if you have an issue with this and that is how do you feel after you eat your meals?
So, if you eat your meal and you feel a huge crash, come on after that, there's a good
chance that you are insulin resistant, okay? The reason that this is happening is because
you can't get sugar into the cell. There's a problem there. And so when we look at this
issue many people have it. Now, a lot of people go off and like I said, they want to lose
weight, so they hit the gym hard, but the problem is with all that inflammation, with
all that insulin resistance they're just regardless of their hard work, they're not losing weight,
right? It's one of those things where you see like, well, you know, you're not losing
weight, but it's not really your fault because you're doing the right things, but you're
just not getting all the way up to the root cause of the problem here. And so if you're
having hypoglycemic patterns and hyperglycemic problems, and you are going and finding that
you crash midafternoon there's a good chance that you have this issue. We have to do things
like cleaning up or diet. Like I said, we'll get to in a moment but we also want to make
sure that we do some different things like using nutritional cofactors in order to really
help become more insulin sensitive. So, storming the cell receptors with nutritional cofactors
in order to accomplish this goal, especially around mealtime and when you're finding that
you're crashing, it's gonna be really powerful. What I'll do is I'll put a link in the description
to some different nutritional cofactors that you can utilize in order to help reverse insulin
resistance. It's all part of this puzzle, right? But if we want to lose weight the big
thing is is that we work on reducing inflammation and work on improving our insulin sensitivity.
Because, what happens is when insulin is high in the body, when blood sugar is high in the
body essentially what's going to happen is you're going to get a big fat accumulation.
And it's not something that you're looking for if you're watching this video. Let's talk
about our next topic. Okay, that leads us into the topic of cortisol as well, and we
talk about stress it's a really interesting topic because you know to the body it doesn't
distinguish between stress, and a positive stress and a negative stress. Stress is stress,
okay? Stress comes in many different shapes and sizes. First, we're going to have physical
stress, okay? Now, one of the ways I can kind of, you know give you an example of physical
stress being negative is in the way of exercise, right? So, one time I had this patient and
one of the things I wanted to do is get them in a good workout routine. So, you know, we
start having them work out and guess what happens. They actually became worse. Why did
this happen, That physical stress, their body could not handle, right? Stress is stress.
The body doesn't distinguish between good and negative. So, we have physical stress,
right? So, you may have to actually step away from the work out if you're trying to lose
weight because your body just can't handle that extra stress. There's chemical stress
like the stress from eating poor quality food, the chemicals that you're cleaning your home
with, all these different toxins. There's also emotional stress, financial stress, relationships
stress. All these different stressors are a problem for the body. Now, I want to teach
you how cortisol and stress play into fat accumulation on your body because it's a big
deal. Now, let's look at this over here. So, let's take ourselves back to the Paleolithic
times, right? Let's talk about how cortisol and stress are actually such a positive thing
for the body in some cases. So, if you go back into Paleolithic times and let's say
you're living in a cave a tiger steps in, right! Well, this cortisol reaction, this
huge stress response, essentially is going to save your life, right? What's going to
happen? You're going to have that increased stress. That tiger walks through the door,
you're freaking out, right? You're also going to have an increase in blood sugar. This reaction
is so powerful that you'll even break down muscle in order to get a good blood sugar
reaction in order to give you energy. So, you have the increased energy, you go and
you choke out the tiger, and then Bam, life is normal again. Everything comes to a stop
and you're able to go about your peaceful caveman life. Okay, now from there, that's
all a positive thing, but in today's society, it doesn't look so pretty right. So, here's
what happens, we have an increased stress right, all these stressors we talked about,
we have that increase in cortisol, then you have increased, blood sugar, increase in insulin,
right, because cortisol spikes insulin as well, you have an increase in fat accumulation,
you're breaking down muscle tissue, so you're losing muscle putting on fat, big problem,
right? And then you have that negative feedback cycle where it just keeps going right because
you have all this stress coming in, social media, all this stuff coming in and it's just
adding all that fat to the body. So what we have to do is we have to reduce stress, okay?
There's a couple of ways we can do this. We can do things like mindful meditation, which
is really powerful. I'll put a link in the description on how to do that. It's research-proven.
I do that daily. Do it first thing in the morning, just kind of set your day up for
success. The other thing that we can do is use a lot of different nutritional vitamins
in order to help go and reduce cortisol levels in the body. There are some different research-proven
nutrients out there that actually lower cortisol levels and are really powerful and I'll put
a link to that in the description below too, because the big thing is, is if we want to
stop burning muscle and stop putting that fat on the body, we have to reduce stress
and cortisol, really powerful. And getting enough sleep here is really crucial as well,
an absolutely major, major component of this process. Infrared saunas, now, this is one
I truly love. If you follow me on Instagram you see me talk about this all the time. I
put can it get any easier because the truth is I really love infrared saunas. I find them
relaxing, it's a great place to go do that meditation and reduce that stress level, but
the thing is about infrared saunas is that they're actually research-proven to help you
burn fat. So, not only they relaxing and not only do they you know, help reverse some different
chronic conditions and help support the process, they also are really great for losing fat.
Basically what was found is that a 30-minute infrared and sauna session can burn up to
300 calories. Very powerful for just sitting and relaxing in a sauna, really great. Now,
there was a research study done And basically what they did is they had people use an infrared
sauna three times per week 30 minutes per session and basically what they found is that
over a four-month period that these individuals had a four percent decrease in body fat. Now,
when it comes to infrared saunas some people have these in their home. You can have the
big ones. Some people even have the little portable ones that are really great. You hear
me talk about those all the time because I truly love them, little portable infrared
saunas because they're cost-effective, and then you can even go to different health clubs
or even most gyms have them at this point. So, infrared saunas, definitely really help
for not only reducing your fat content on your body but improving your overall health
and they're very relaxing. Next is low carb diet, okay? I want to keep this simple. That's
the whole point of this video is just kind of you know, breaking through all the clutter
and getting right to the source and making things simple. And so, when we talk about
losing weight and the best way to do it, the best I have, the first thing that's gonna
pop up is, everyone's gonna go Bam, is ketogenic diet. And there's so much truth to that. The
ketogenic diet is great. But, for the most part, a lot of people when they look at the
ketogenic diet, way too complicated right? I'm trying to work, I'm trying to manage my
family, I'm trying to do all this and now you want me to follow this strict diet, and
measure my blood ketones, and all that. Well, it gets a little complicated for a lot of
people, and if I'm being a hundred percent honest with you, in my clinic I don't hardly
ever recommend the ketogenic diet unless there's a neurological condition involved with it.
And the reason for that is because for most people it's too much. It's overwhelming, right?
So, what I do is I recommend a low carb diet. This is why my wife and I wrote a book on
low carb cooking, on how to you know, make delicious low carb recipes. I'll put a link
to that book in the description below. It's a cookbook and diet guide. And so when we
look at the low carb diet, right, you don't have to you know, really fine-tune your macronutrients
as much. You don't have to measure your blood ketones, and you just eat a hundred grams
or less of carbohydrates per day, you remove all the different processed foods out, get
rid of all the junk foods, you consume no sugar, and consume no grains, and that's the
basis behind the diet. It's that simple right? And I've seen people lose hundreds of pounds
following this simple diet. So many people have reversed major conditions following this
diet, insulin resistance, arthritis all of it. So it's a very powerful diet, and we don't
want to overlook it, and we don't want to just go well, it's either keto or nothing.
No, we can actually do a good solid low-carb diet and get amazing results. And so, I really,
really recommend that you do that. Like I said, all links in the description below and
all resources below. Let's talk about water fasting. So. I had a conversation the other
day with a gentleman who was saying well, what I want to do is I want to start burning
fat, but I really don't want to lose muscle mass. I'm trying to put muscle mass on, I
said, well I'll tell you what, one of the easiest ways to do this, right, cut out all
the clutter, one of the fastest ways to do this is do a water fast. The reason this is
powerful is because when you go into a fasted state you go into this muscle preserving state
but your body still needs energy, so it starts burning that fat for energy. You go into this
autophagy state. You go into the state of ketosis, body burns fat for energy. It's a
great way for not only healing the body but also for just burning fat. And so, what you
can do is a three-day water fast, and you can also do a seven-day water fast. I've done
videos on both those topics. I'll put links in the description below. And so, the water
fast is powerful and it works so well. It's something I've practiced for many years in
my own life, and I think that it's a great way to start losing fat if you want to get
into that process. One of the things that's gonna happen during it is you're gonna become
more hormone-sensitive. You're gonna preserve muscle and burn fat like I said. And you can
see how these conversations just keep repeating right, decrease inflammation, become more
hormone-sensitive, right, start you, know burning fat for energy. It all keeps repeating
itself because that is what works and that is really getting to the root cause, right?
We're not gonna talk about fat loss pills. We're not going to talk about core exercises.
We're not gonna talk all about all these different fad things that you can do. We want to get
right to the source of it. Water fasting is really great. Now, one of the things you might
say is, well, that's way too complicated for me, I don't want to go into water fasting,
I don't have the time, you know, my work schedule. I get it, okay? Let's talk about an easier
method and that's intermittent fasting. Okay, this is something that you can do every single
day and you're going to burn fat on a daily basis, okay? You're gonna also decrease calorie
consumption because typically when you do intermittent fasting and you're going and
you're pushing your meals into shorter eating windows, you just naturally decrease calorie
consumption. You put yourself in a calorie deficit. That's not the goal, but it kind
of just naturally happens. You put yourself in that calorie deficit. As a result, you'll
start to lose some weight and you're also just gonna have overall healing, okay? So,
this is daily fat burning if you are not familiar with intermittent fasting I'll put a link
in the description below to a complete guide that I did on intermittent fasting that's
gonna help you get started for success. You can do 16 and 8 which is almost effortless
to put into your daily lifestyle. Or, you can do something like one meal a day where
you just have one massive meal per day. A lot of people are using this method right
now in order to lose weight and improve their overall health, but it's a great belly fat
burning strategy that works so well. Let's talk about exercise now. Now, when it comes
to exercise this is an interesting topic, right? Because I said, I was gonna leave it
out of it, but I also said is it even necessary. And the truth is, is that exercise is just
as necessary as eating. You know, when we look at, you know, a vitamin A deficiency,
a vitamin B deficiency, like if you don't have enough of those nutrients in the body
you're deficient. You're gonna have problems from it. Exercise is one of those things that
is also a deficiency if you're not putting it into your daily lifestyle. When we look
at exercise it is absolutely required by our genetics, and one of the things that we want
to do is we want to include it because when we look at almost any study out there, on
brain health, neurological health, on reducing your fat content on your body, you know making
sure that you don't get chronic conditions one day. Exercise is so crucial. So what we
have to do is we have to know that we need to exercise, but it's not the only factor.
And the thing is, is that it's absolutely essential, and if you're someone who doesn't
like exercise, there's so many ways to exercise, right? It's not just about going outside and
running like you might think. It's not about jumping on a treadmill. It's not just about
weight lifting, right? You can go into yoga classes, CrossFit classes you can do martial
arts. I mean, there's so many things that I do for exercise just because I get bored,
you know. I love exercising on daily basis, but I still get bored doing the same thing
day in and day out. So, I pretty much practice about every type of exercise that you can
think of. I'm big into boxing, I love weightlifting, I also am a runner, you know, I do yoga, I
do all these different things because I enjoy it and that's how you know, just kind of changing
things up on a daily basis, it really makes it so it's more enjoyable. And honestly, here's
another form of exercise that most people are not even thinking of, and that's just
a 30-minute walk a day with your family. Take your dog out, take your kids out, take your
you know, friends and family for a nice walk, have good conversations, good meaningful conversations,
which people don't have enough of these days. So, have good conversations and that way you're
not only going to you know, reduce stress, reduce inflammation, you become more hormone
sensitive when you exercise, but you're also going to lose that weight and that's your
goal. And also if you want to learn more just about the benefit of a 30-minute walk a day
I'll put a link in the description below that will give you that information because I did
