Science suggests that this tendency is rooted back to our ancestors who faced a real threat of starvation. Human bodies developed survival mechanisms to store and protect fat to so we would have adequate fuel during a calorie shortage. Obviously, our ancestors did not have the convenience of supermarkets and restaurants that we have today. Our bodies have been programmed to see weight loss as a sign of imminent starvation.

So how are we supposed to burn fat and lose the weight?
It ought to be simple, but when you cut too many calories to lose weight your body senses starvation and will adjust the metabolism to fight this threat. Science and research are proving a far more effective method of losing weight is to "fool" your body by refuel it frequently with small healthy portioned meals that are rich in fiber, nutrients, and protein to build lean muscle mass.
