A Body Type is
a type of metabolism. We can recognize your Body Type based on your shape,
because each Body Type has a its own special shape. But your Body Type has a
more important reality. In fact, your shape is a signal of the type of metabolism you have.
Your Body Type comes from which of your four
major glands is strongest in your metabolism. The body has four major glands:
the thyroid gland, the adrenal glands, the pituitary gland and gonads or sex
glands. According to which of these glands dominates your system, women can be
either Thyroid Types, Adrenal Types, Gonadal Types or Pituitary Types.
Men have only three Body Types, because in
men, the Adrenal and Gonadal Types are combined. So men can only be Thyroid
Types, Adrenal Types or Pituitary Types.
In addition, each type puts on weight in
different places, craves different foods and has a different energy
pattern.
A hormone is a chemical messenger in the body
that is produced by endocrine glands in small amounts, released into the
bloodstream, then carried to other parts of the body, where they cause specific
changes in body function. The endocrine system can get damaged by
over consumption of excess sugar, low calorie diets and exposure to
toxic chemicals, which can disrupt or block glandular function.
Various body shapes can develop from
improperly functioning glands or organs, which I will talk about below,
but keep in mind that many people may express a combination of these body
types.
lets have an enjoying quiz and kone more about your body @ body type
The Ovary Shape
For women in childbearing years who are
trying to conceive, having over-productive ovaries isn’t necessarily a bad
thing. But for others, it can lead to saddlebags and lower stomach pooch.Like the Ovary shape, too much estrogen triggers the ovary shape; in
fact, people can be both shapes in their lifetime. Many ovary body types turn
into Ovary types after pregnancy due to the spike in estrogen, especially if
the woman develops a Ovary problem during or shortly after having the baby.
buttocks. If they try to lose weight with just any old low-fat low-calorie
diet, it can be quite frustrating because weight will tend to come off easily
from areas where there is not a problem, while the buttocks and thighs retain
their cellulite and fatty deposits.
Since
most of the fat is superficial and around the legs and buttocks area, walking
or biking is best. The Ovary body type should do a combination of both high-
and low-intensity exercise.
The ovarian hormones, like the adrenal hormones, are steroids and are built from cholesterol. This body type can tolerate more fat and cholesterol. Make sure fats are
hormone free (butter, cheese, cream, meats and milk)
The Thyroid Shape
Your thyroid resides in the front of
your lower neck and is about 2 and a half inches wide. It makes hormones that
control the metabolism in all your cells. Hence, thyroid types tend to get big all
over, not in just one place. Many thyroid body types are triggered by the
hormone estrogen. As estrogen becomes dominant, your thyroid slows down and over
time, can become sluggish. Stubborn baby weight that doesn’t seem to go away
after giving birth is often due to a spike in estrogen, coupled with thyroid
malfunction.

Swimming and low impact aerobics.
Twenty to thirty minute workouts might be best, two or three times a week.
Walking is the most natural to this body type and may be done every day. Also a
rebounder is good because it gets the lymphatic system working.
People
with a Thyroid body type crave sugar because of the sluggishness of fuel
processing. It is important for these people to eat between meals (protein -
raw nuts and seeds) to maintain enough fuel so that blood sugars stay even
The Adrenal Shape
Adrenal body types
tend to crave fatty and salty foods due to the fact that these foods provide
the most stimulation to the adrenal glands. When too much of these types of
foods are consumed, the adrenals can become over stimulated, which can lead to
weight gain. To combat this, adrenal body types should consume foods that are
low in salt and fat, such as fresh fruit, low fat dairy products and whole
grain carbohydrates.
If you are an adrenal body type this would describe you:
muscles and turning proteins into sugar. To prevent this, keep protein in
the body with small frequent meals - especially between main meals.
lets have an enjoying quiz and kone more about your body @ body type
The Ovary Shape
Ovary types can
also suffer heavy periods and develop facial hair and acne, especially during
that time of the month, Berg says. Anything that is cyclic, such as headaches,
PMS, bloating, and depression, can occur frequently with the ovary type,
oftentimes during ovulation or about one week before a menstruation.
The gonads or ovaries are the dominant
gland in Ovary types, which is why it is more common among women.
Ovary types tend
to have a pear-shaped body shape with slender upper bodies. Weight gain occurs
only on the lower buttocks and thighs and gives a very feminine and curvy
shape.
Many Ovary types
will have a big problem with cellulite accumulating around the upper thighs and
They often have a
hormonal imbalance called “oestrogen dominance”, which means that there is too
much oestrogen compared to progesterone.
Ovary type people
tend to crave rich, creamy and spicy food. They are known to have strong energy
fields that keep them going even when physically tired, which makes Ovary types
people warm and nurturing.
Caring and
emphatic, Ovary types put themselves at risk of stress and exhaustion when they
frequently put others ahead of themselves.
Ovary Type Characteristics
Dominant gland: the gonads (ovaries).
Basic body shape: pear-shaped, with curvy rear and slender upper body.
Weight gain spots: mostly on the rear, to a lesser extent the hips and
outer thighs.
Food cravings: rich, creamy and spicy food.
Energy pattern: very strong, even energy, able to keep going even when
tired.
Personality: warm and nurturing, with a tendency to become stressed when
she doesn’t take care of herself too.
Needs: The Ovary type program helps Ovary types lose weight in her rear
and reduces cravings for creamy foods.
Ovary Body Type Triggers
Many
times the Ovary body type has ovarian cysts, fibroids, etc. Avoiding estrogenic
triggers would be recommen ded;
avoid commercial milks, cheese and meats unless they are hormone free.
Symptoms
of Improperly Working Ovaries:
- § History of PMS
- § Premenstrual Weight Gain
- § Ovarian Cysts
- § Cyclic Acne
- § Cyclic Mood Swings
- § Cyclic Fatigue and Brain Fog
- § Cyclic Pain in the Back, Hips or Knees
- § Cyclic Lack of Libido
- § Cyclic Constipation
- § Infertility
- § Hot Flashes
- § Night Sweats
- § Vaginal Dryness
- § Excessive Menstrual Bleeding
Exercises
For The Ovary Body Type
Since
most of the fat is superficial and around the legs and buttocks area, walking
or biking is best. The Ovary body type should do a combination of both high-
and low-intensity exercise.
Eating
Pattern For The Ovary Body Type
These
people crave chocolate and starches, especially around menstruation. It’s
vitally important to maintain a protein and fat breakfast mode and to keep
sugars low.
Consume
lots of cruciferous vegetables, since they are anti-estrogenic
Consume
an adequate amount of protein (50-75 grams) to help trigger fat-burning
hormones. Make sure meats are hormone free, since environmental hormones can
affect ovaries.
The ovarian hormones, like the adrenal hormones, are steroids and are built from cholesterol. This body type can tolerate more fat and cholesterol. Make sure fats are
hormone free (butter, cheese, cream, meats and milk)
The
Ovary body type tends to have excessive bleeding during menstruation and loss
of blood depletes iron. Consume red vegetables like beets, red apples and blood
red oranges. The ovaries use iodine like the Ovary does, so it is also a good
thing to add sea kelp, dulse or alfalfa to your diet.
The Thyroid Shape
What it means:
Besides weight struggles, those with a thyroid body type also often suffer hair
loss, saggy skin under the arms, ridged nails, and loss of the outer eyebrows,
Berg says. “Thyroid types also tend to reach for simple carbs, such as bread,
for quick energy to rev their sluggish metabolism.” You can get tested for thyroid disorders, but Berg says that
problems don’t always show up on blood tests until the person is already in an
advanced state.
Thyroid Type Characteristics
Dominant gland: the thyroid gland.
Basic body shape: long-limbed, fine-boned,
high waist, oval or long face.
Weight gain spots: between shoulders and
knees, including thighs, upper hips, and round waist.
Food cravings: sweets, starches, caffeine.
Energy pattern: up and down: energetic for a
while, with a tendency to “crash.”
Personality: creative, lively, full of energy
when “up.” Tendency to be irritable or depressed when tired or stressed.
Needs: The T-type program helps T-types
reduce cravings for sweets while increasing energy and endurance.
Thyroid
Body Type Triggers
Toxins
are the initial trigger for the Thyroid Body Type. The difference with the
Thyroid Body Type is that these toxins triggered an imbalance of the
metabolism. The worst foods for the Thyroid Body Type are sugared
carbohydrates, because they work to add further waste material that your body
converts to fatty tissue. The Thyroid Type begins with a complete
detoxification, because in order to lose weight, you must remove the toxins
that are blocking your body's natural fat burning. We recommend Indigo, an all
natural product that was developed as the first step to cleanse the body.

Exercises
For The Thyroid Body Type
Swimming and low impact aerobics.
Twenty to thirty minute workouts might be best, two or three times a week.
Walking is the most natural to this body type and may be done every day. Also a
rebounder is good because it gets the lymphatic system working.
Many of this body
type find walking is ideal. An indoor exercise Glider is a wonderful way to get
a walking workout each day no matter what the weather. This type doesn't need
to go for the strenuous workout because it often will lead to fatigue and
energy swings.
Eating
Pattern For The Thyroid Body Type
People
with a Thyroid body type crave sugar because of the sluggishness of fuel
processing. It is important for these people to eat between meals (protein -
raw nuts and seeds) to maintain enough fuel so that blood sugars stay even
The
thyroid is inhibited by estrogen, so decreasing exposure to estrogen will help
this situation - this includes soy products, since soy is estrogenic
Consume
lots of non-cruciferous vegetables, as cruciferous vegetables tend to deplete
iodine (or add some sea kelp, dulse, or alfalfa).
Consume
25 grams of protein per day. The metabolic rate is slow and it can’t tolerate
large
amounts of protein.
The
sluggish thyroid can’t break down fat properly and many times these people have
high cholesterol. Go light on fats.
The
Thyroid body type needs iodine. However, the diet recommended has enough iodine
(in yogurt, eggs, meat, fruits and cheese). If you are concerned, consume sea
kelp, dulse, or alfalfa.
Our adrenal glands
sit on the kidneys and deal with stress. When too much stress builds up, your
fight-or-flight response kicks in, triggering the hormone cortisol to build up
fat around your most vital organs—which are located in your midsection.
Constant stress
leads to poor sleep patterns, causing worry, excessive thinking, brain fog,
poor memory, and weight gain, he says. Most growth hormone is released at
night, and this hormone regulates fat burn. Trying to lose weight can actually
cause you to add pounds since conventional diet programs that call for
drastically cutting calories and overtraining with exhaustive workouts only
further stress your body. Overtime, as adrenal fatigue continues, tolerance to
stress dives even lower and patience with others wears thing. These types tend
to be edgy and irritable, and oftentimes, others get on their nerves.
Adrenal Type Characteristics
Dominant gland: the adrenal glands.
Basic body shape: strong-looking, bigger above the waist than below,
large breasts, slim hips.
Weight gain spots: mostly above the waist: upper back, breasts, stomach,
with hips and legs remaining shapely.
Food cravings: salty foods, fats, alcohol.
Energy pattern: steady energy all day, falling off in the evening.
Personality: friendly, practical and outgoing. Slow to get angry, but
with a temper when provoked.
Needs: The A-type program helps A-types lose stomach fat while becoming
livelier and more flexible
Adrenal
Body Type Triggers
If you are an adrenal body type this would describe you:
- Upper
body is dominant, strong upper body, women have a large chest
- If there
is a belly it tends to be high, under the chest
- Tendency
to be muscular and physically strong
- A square
type appearance
- Sociable,
tolerant, dominating and warm
- Stable
energy
- You have
a tendency towards high cholesterol, high blood pressure and
cardiovascular disease
Exercises
For The Adrenal Body Type
The
adrenal gland is already stressed and exercise will put it into overwhelm. Do
light, low-pulse-rate, low-intensity exercise (aerobic). Once the adrenals are
stronger, then you can add some anaerobic exercise.
Eating
Pattern For The Adrenal Body Type
The
Adrenal type is dumping lots of stored sugar in to the bloodstream or is eating
up
Because the Adrenal type is losing the
mineral potassium, the pH of their blood often becomes excessively alkaline. A
teaspoon of apple cider vinegar in water before bed is recommended, as this
helps stabilize blood pH and potassium (potassium has a relaxing effect)
Consume lots of vegetables with vitamin C -
leafy greens, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, bell peppers,
parsley, etc.
Consume more protein (50-75 grams) and fat ,
as this body type needs to replace the destruction of body proteins (muscles).
Adrenal hormones are made from cholesterol.
When people experience stress or are sick, their bodies need more cholesterol
and fat to build hormones - this is why you might crave fats when you are sick
or stressed. Ovary The ovarian hormones, like the adrenal hormones, are
steroids and are built from cholesterol.
This body type is losing certain minerals -
calcium, potassium and sometimes sodium, depending on what’s happening with the
adrenals. Consume high-potassium and high- calcium foods - leafy greens are
best. If you crave salt, eat some sea salt.
The liver
is the largest organ of the body weighing in at 3-pounds, and located
under your right rib cage. It is a major organ for filtration and
detoxification. Some of its other hundreds of functions are digestion, sugar
storage and regulation, immune system responses, and important components of
the blood. However, if the liver
becomes damaged or weak, it can cause a “pot belly”, due to an
accumulation of fluid, not fat. There may be appearance of a roll of fat or
bulging just below the rib cage.
A
liver type will often crave the foods that will stress the liver even more,
like fatty/fried foods, chocolate or alcohol., so they often have higher cholesterol and blood pressure
levels. These body types typically have thin legs and a
In
healthy individuals, blood sugar naturally rises in the morning because of
natural hormonal changes, but after fasting overnight, liver types
inevitably wake up with low blood sugar and can be irritable. They also have
digestive problems such as gas and heartburn after they eat because of their
sluggish digestive juices, which means food is not breaking down thoroughly, and
if bile isn’t released, the person will feel unsatisfied and crave carbs for
energy.
Liver
Body Type Triggers
If you
have Liver Body Type, the triggers are junk foods, alcohol, fried foods and
soft drinks, and these cravings just cause you to gain more and more
weight. Consumption of vegetables & fruits is a must, along
with detoxing the
liver.
Symptoms of a Liver Type:
- § Foggy Brain in the morning
- § Pot Belly
- § Lower Tolerance to Fatty Foods
- § Burping or Bloating after Eating
- § Constipation & Hemorrhoids
- § Bad Breath
- § Pain or Stiffness in the Right Shoulder Area
- § Stiffness or Pain in the Upper Back/Shoulder Blade Area
- § Roll of Fat or Bulging Just Below the Rib Cage
- § Sensation of Fullness over the Rib Cage on the Right Side
- § Irritability or Moodiness, Especially in the Morning
- § Sensation of Overheated Body, Especially the Feet at Night
Exercises
For The Liver Body Type
When
you’re planning your exercise routine, make sure it incorporates plenty of
cardio like
jogging, using an elliptical machine, and walking fast are all examples of aerobic exercise. Aerobic exercise activates your immune system, helps your heart pump blood more efficiently, and increases your stamina over time.
Research is
showing that Interval Training (Anaerobic)
is the best way to condition your heart and burn fat. So this means instead
of jogging, walk steadily for an hour and alternate short bursts of
high-intensity exercise with gentle recovery periods. This type of
exercise, also known as burst training, can dramatically improve your
cardiovascular fitness and fat-burning capabilities.
Rounding
out your exercise program with a strength
training routine will ensure that you're really optimizing the
possible health benefits of a regular exercise program.
Core strengthening exercises are also a great idea. Your body has 29 core muscles located mostly in your back, abdomen and pelvis. This group of muscles provides the foundation for movement throughout your entire body, and strengthening them can help protect and support your back, make your spine and body less prone to injury and help you gain greater balance and stability. Exercise programs like Pilates and yoga are another good idea for strengthening core muscles.
Eating Pattern
For The Liver Body Type
Because
the liver regulates growth hormone and IGF, both of which have a function of
controlling blood sugars between meals, it’s best to eat three meals but not in
between. A good breakfast with protein (as opposed to skipping it) is the most
important of all meals
The
Liver type usually has digestive troubles. Consuming fermented foods, such as
pickles, sauerkraut, low-fat plain yogurt and low-fat cheese, is recommended.
