IS YOUR WEIGHT GAIN IN YOUR HEAD?
Yes, not for everyone, but for about 50% of people the cause of weight gain is literally in your head.
Where in the head?
Specifically, the hypothalamus, and very specific parts like the paraventricular nucleus and the arcuate nucleus.
How does the hypothalamus get damaged and cause weight gain? It gets damaged by blue light from your computer, phone, ceiling lights, TV, etc. The heme proteins of the mitochondria in the neurons contain iron which gets shifted from +2 oxidation state to +3 when exposed to blue light. The hypothalamus is directly connected to the retinal pathway, so whatever light enters the eye will affect the hypothalamus. When that iron shifts oxidation states then nitric oxide binds and the electron transport chain cannot quantum tunnel electrons properly. Consequently, leptin receptors on POMC neurons fail to function even though your fat cells may be making tons and tons of leptin. This is called leptin resistance. You, therefore, cannot regulate energy and you gain weight.
Don't believe me?
Just try it. Give up all technology for a year, expose your eyes and body to natural sunlight all day for a year, and see how fast you lose weight. It's called a tech-diet.
