Food Sensitivities

Food sensitivities are something that we do not normally think about but they can affect the results that you get when trying to lose weight, gain muscle, or get leaner. If you are sensitive to a food then you are basically allergic to it. This does not mean that you are going to get hives or break into a rash if you eat the food but it does mean that the food causes a stress on your body. When a food puts a stress on your body it increases your cortisol levels and makes your digestive system worse which does not allow you to pull nutrition from your food as well. So what are some common foods that people are sensitive to. Eggs, dairy, wheat, and soy are all at the top of the list when it comes to food sensitivities so if you have a hard time getting rid of stubborn fat you may consider cutting these foods out for a couple of weeks and see what happens.
