or because there is an overload, are temporarily stored in at least some fat

cells where they are less likely to do damage.

+++Hi Ali. Our bodies acquire toxins from two main sources:

1) toxins from outside sources, i.e. foods and drinks, the air and through the

skin

2) all cells produce toxins during normal metabolism, including fat, muscle,

bone, liver, heart, lymphatic system, etc. (collectively cells make up all

tissues and every organ throughout the body).

+++In any case the does not designate a place to store toxins, like it does

vitamin D, vitamin A, and other nutrients. That is because the toxic overload

is in ALL cells, not just fat cells.

Toxins accumulate in all cells throughout the body when they are not able to

detoxify themselves, i.e. get rid of their natural waste products) which affects

the functioning of all organs and tissues.

When cells lack oxygen and energy it results in the inability to:

1) exchange oxygen for carbon dioxide

2) intake nutrients, water, etc. and to communicate cell to cell by producing

hormones or to get hormone signals for two main reasons: 1) their cell membranes

are stiff due to toxins, and 2) they are not constructed properly out of 50%

saturated fat (lung cells require 100% saturated fat).

The liver does not process all toxins from all sources. For example, there are

mechanisms for clearing toxins in the air that also depends upon cellular

health, i.e. #1 & 2 above.

> There has to be some reason why, although I am on a very low-carb diet and

have been for three years, I still cannot lose the excess weight. I am only 13

months on your diet and still have a way to go, but I find it strange that some

people can drop weight as soon as they embark on low-carb and others, like me

keep gaining.

+++As I've written many times that women have this difficulty mainly because of

hormones - see this message:

> I kind of assumed that is happening because my body is shunting toxins around

during the healing and detox process and that it is not until the toxins are

gone that it may finally start to close down the then unneeded fat cells.

+++No, it isn't only a toxin issue.

> I suppose that a degree of insulin resistance in some - and a resulting higher

amount of insulin floating around the body could encourage weight gain - or at

least difficulty losing, but one would think that at least a few months into the

diet would help to reverse that.

>

> If it is not toxins encouraging weight gain, and one is no longer eating the

carbs and sugars, then why does it happen?

+++While your body is healing itself it will also retrace any past issues it had

with weight gain and/or loss, just like it does blood sugar or blood pressure

fluctuations, etc., since healing is the reverse of all past disease processes.

All the best, Bee
