Endomorph Diet: How to Eat Right for Your Body Type

If you're an endomorph, your body type is characterized by a rounder shape and a higher percentage of fat. Endomorphs tend to be naturally heavier than other people, but they can also gain weight easily if they don't watch what they eat.

Endomorphs have the most trouble losing weight because their bodies store fat more efficiently than other body types do. This means that it's harder for them to burn off calories through exercise or dieting alone. They need extra help from specific foods that are high in fiber and protein so their bodies will burn off more energy instead of storing it as fat.

The best way for endomorphs to lose weight is by following an eating plan designed specifically for them: The Endomorph Diet!

Types of Foods to Avoid

1) Sugar

Sugar is the enemy. It's not just a fad or a trend, it's been proven to be one of the worst things you can put in your body. Sugar causes inflammation and spikes in blood sugar levels, which can lead to weight gain, diabetes, heart disease and other health issues.

2) Processed Foods

Processed foods are loaded with preservatives, additives and chemicals that do nothing but harm your body over time. They're also high in sodium (salt), which causes bloating, and trans fats (like margarine) that increase bad cholesterol levels.

Saturated fats like butter or cream raise good cholesterol levels but also increase the risk of cardiovascular disease; artificial sweeteners such as aspartame that have been linked to cancerous tumors in lab rats.

Benefits of an Endomorph Diet

1) Improved digestion

Endomorphs tend to have sluggish digestion, which can cause bloating and gas. By eating the right foods, you can improve your digestion and reduce these symptoms.

2) Increased energy levels

Your body will feel more energized when you're eating right for your body type because you're getting the nutrients it needs in order to function properly.

3) Weight loss or maintenance of current weight

Eating healthy foods helps keep blood sugar levels stable so that cravings for junk food don't happen as often and when they do occur, they aren't as strong as they would be if you were eating poorly.

Moreover, an endomorph diet focuses on whole foods instead of processed ones, which means fewer calories per serving but still lots of great nutrients.
