Is there a solution?
In your small intestines, there are finger-like protrusions called villi. If you look it up in the dictionary it is under "villus". It is through these villi that absorption of nutrients from your food takes place. Through the years your villi get damaged and break off.
Things that damaged your villi are:
- Stress
- Alcohol
- Additives
- Airborne toxins like exhaust fumes
- Medications
- Smoking
- Fats
- Preservatives
- Drugs
- Salts
So what happens when your body is not absorbing the nutrients out of the food?
First of all, you start needing more food - your appetite increases as you do your cravings - because your body needs more nutrients. You also start to crave fats and sugars because they are the easiest substance for your body to absorb. You become fatigued when your body is not getting proper nutrition. When your villi are not healthy, your body things it is starving and it stores instead of burning your fats. You may be saying, "well, I eat really healthy and I love low fat foods and I take vitamins." Some of you may be working out of the gym. Even though you may be doing these things, you can still be experiencing the symptoms that were described. The underlying problem is most likely absorptions. No matter how much good food and vitamins you take in, if your body is not absorbing them, then it is a total waste.
Weight Management from the inside out

To get your wight off and to keep it off, you need to feed your body on a cellular level. Your body can repair and rebuild the villi to the healty state it was when you were younger.
