The Root Cause of Obesity & Excessive Weight Gain

Contrary to popular belief, obesity is not just driven by laziness and an inability to say no to fast food. It is not even an issue of too much accumulated fat, but rather it is due to excess water retention. Dr. Ryke Geerd Hamer discovered that when we feel abandoned, isolated, like a refugee, or like our existence is in danger, our kidney collecting tubules tighten up in an effort to retain as much water as possible, to protect us from this danger. The excess water is stored throughout our bodies, but mainly within the adipose tissue, causing excessive weight gain.
