The well-known Kardashian family has been part and parcel of the celebrity scene since their 2007 breakthrough in reality TV and it seems that it has always been easy for them to show themselves at their best. However, Kim Kardashian\u2019s brother Rob has to struggle with his weight for months. During the past year, he was regularly photographed while performing physical activities, but the pounds just won\u2019t go away.<\/p>\n<p>If he wants to lose weight, apart from eating less burgers and pizzas, Rob should be paying attention to the processes taking place in his body.<\/p>\n<p>Brown fat tissue, for instance: Unlike adults, newborns have brown fat tissue, which protects their bodies from cooling. This special fat tissue is activated by a cold stimulus, whereby the body\u2019s metabolism is stimulated and fat burned. Adults still have these fat cells to some extent, but in most people they are no longer active.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/ddrheinrich.com\/en\/treatments\/regenerative-therapies\/bioidentical-hormones\/\">hormone melatonin<\/a> increases the activity rate of the brown fat cells. To be precise, it stimulates the liver to fulfill its nocturnal tasks, which is why it is also called the \u201csleep hormone\u201d. Trials with laboratory rats have shown that the sleep hormone also causes brown fat cells to burn fat and thus support weight loss.<\/p>\n<p>A dysfunctional thyroid gland can often be the cause of persistent excess weight. <a href=\"https:\/\/ddrheinrich.com\/en\/treatments\/regenerative-therapies\/bioidentical-hormones\/\">T3 and T4 hormones<\/a> play an important role in the body\u2019s energy metabolism and cell growth and if insufficient quantities of them are produced in the thyroid gland, this can develop into an overall health problem \u2013 obesity (adipositas) is after all one of the main causes of cardiovascular disease.<\/p>\n<p>What advice can we give to Rob? First of all, he should have a thorough analysis made of his hormone levels and the \u201cactual status\u201d of his health. On this basis, customized therapy can be developed for <a href=\"https:\/\/ddrheinrich.com\/en\/treatments\/weight-loss\/\">medically assisted weight loss<\/a>. Any hormonal deficiencies, for example of the <a href=\"https:\/\/ddrheinrich.com\/en\/treatments\/regenerative-therapies\/bioidentical-hormones\/\">thyroid hormones<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/ddrheinrich.com\/en\/treatments\/regenerative-therapies\/bioidentical-hormones\/\">melatonin<\/a>, can thereby be balanced out with <a href=\"https:\/\/ddrheinrich.com\/en\/treatments\/regenerative-therapies\/bioidentical-hormones\/\">bioidentical hormones<\/a>. In addition, changes can be made to diet and lifestyle. Carbohydrate intake, in particular, such as starch, flour and potatoes should be reduced.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ddrheinrich.com\/en\/treatments\/liposuction\/\">Liposuction on the \u201cproblem zones\u201d<\/a> should be carried out <em>before<\/em> weight loss and can also act as a supportive measure, since it reduces the number of estrogen-producing fat cells. The hormone estrogen promotes fat accumulation in the body.<\/p>\n<p>Once the hormonal balance has been restored, Rob would find it much easier to lose weight and to achieve his ideal weight in the long-term with balanced diet and sport. In most cases, a person\u2019s ideal weight can be maintained in the long run.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to <a href=\"https:\/\/ddrheinrich.com\/en\/treatments\/weight-loss\/\">weight loss therapy<\/a>, bioidentical hormones are also used to <a href=\"https:\/\/ddrheinrich.com\/en\/treatments\/regenerative-therapies\/bioidentical-hormones\/\">improve vitality and general well-being<\/a> as well as for <a href=\"https:\/\/ddrheinrich.com\/en\/treatments\/regenerative-therapies\/bioidentical-hormones\/\">rejuvenation of the skin on the face and body<\/a>. Unlike Kim, however, Rob doesn\u2019t have an issue with skin rejuvenation yet.<\/p>\n<p>DDr.&nbsp;Heinrich, MD<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whoever wants to be in the spotlight these days has to take great care of their appearance.
