What is Calorie Shifting

Calorie Shifting is the practice of inducing your metabolism to burn all the calories it accepts as food, by changing your eating habits and the combinations of foods you eat.

Your metabolism can’t know what your calorie intake will be tomorrow or the day after, so it burns calories based on your eating habits during the past few days. Your metabolism assumes your eating habits will be the same over the next days to come.

If however, you could do the opposite of what your metabolism was expecting, this would effectively shock your system into burning more calories. By rotating the foods you eat and the frequency and types of foods, your metabolism will start to burn calories based on this rotation.

What you are doing in effect is telling your metabolism to burn more calories, as it will expect to see more calories being ingested.

How does Calorie Shifting Work

After every meal you eat, hormones are released by your brain. One hormone, the Fat Burning Hormone, controls the amount of calories used by the body and the other hormone, the Fat Storing Hormone, controls the amount of calories stored as fat in your body.

Using a Calorie Shifting diet, you induce your body to release more Fat Burning Hormones and Less Fat Storing Hormones. This effectively forces your metabolism to burn a greater percentage of calorie intake, reducing the percentage of calorie intake stored as fat.

Your body gets different types of calories every day, which forces faster fat burning to happen.

How Can I Benefit from Calorie Shifting

Fat tissue is produced by the body, but is actually meant to be burned away in your daily activities. If your body’s Fat Burning Hormones are not released properly after every meal, then this fat tissue get stored, instead of being used.

Calorie Shifting involves rotating the food types and the frequency, to allow the release of the highest percentage of Fat Burning Hormones. By achieving this, you force your body to burn a higher percentage of the calories you eat and minimize the percentage your body stores as fat. This process, if repeated in properly defined cycles, causes a repeatable weight loss to occur. This weight loss occurs without depriving yourself of any food types or minimizing your calorie intake. The weight loss is the direct result of the shifting nutrition patterns and the way in which your body produces Fat Burning Hormones and Fat Storing Hormones.

By using a Calorie Shifting nutrition plan, you are able to burn more fat from your daily calorie intake, and also cause your body to use the fat it has already stored as fatty deposits.
