How To Eat Right For Your Body Type
by John Berardi

Nope, this has nothing to do with your blood type, your eye color, or
whether you prefer blondes or brunettes. Instead, this has everything
to do with your somatotype.

Interestingly, research is now showing that whether you're an ecto,
meso, or endomorph this determines some key hormonal and sympathetic
nervous system characteristics.

And these characteristics can be directly linked to some interesting
metabolic differences between people. Specifically:

Ectomorphs - or, those thin individuals characterized by smaller bone
structures, and typically thinner limbs - think endurance athlete -
tend to be thyroid and SNS dominant with either higher output or
higher sensitivity to catecholamines - like epinephrine and
norepinephrine.

Interestingly, this profile is linked to a fast metabolic rate and a
higher carbohydrate tolerance.

Hey, when I wrote that post about ecto and endo, I was kidding. Nobody
believes in that nonsense anymore!
