Body Type Quiz: Hormonal body types

Take this short body type quiz to figure out your body type.

What are the four body types?

The four body types are adrenal, ovary, thyroid, and liver. Each comes with unique challenges. Learn more about each of the four primary body types!

The adrenal body type

Common characteristics of the adrenal body type are sagging belly fat and high stress levels. Adrenal body types often experience brain fog, crave salty foods, and find it challenging to stay calm under stress.

An imbalance of adrenal hormones (primarily cortisol) is at the root of the problem—so a healthy diet won’t fully resolve the issues associated with the adrenal body type. Taking the body type quiz is the best way to determine if you have the adrenal body type.

If you have the adrenal body type, stress reduction is key. It’s essential that you get plenty of quality sleep, take time to relax, and actively manage your stress levels with stress reduction techniques.

The ovary body type

Those with the ovary body type hold weight in their hips and below the belly button. Overactive ovaries and estrogen dominance cause the body to accumulate fat in these areas.

Those with the ovary body type are also highly sensitive to endocrine disruptors—including pesticides, fungicides, and herbicides.

If you are an ovary body type, you’ll benefit from supporting your estrogen balance with organic, non-GMO, and hormone-free foods. This body type quiz will help you determine if you are an ovary body type. The most important foods for balancing estrogen are cruciferous vegetables.

The thyroid body type

Those with the thyroid body type store fat evenly throughout their bodies instead of in one area. Slow metabolism is the primary characteristic of thyroid types, and they may experience digestive issues (gas, bloating, indigestion) when they consume large servings of protein.

Thyroid issues result from secondary problems, making it challenging to pinpoint the root cause. Stress, poor T4 to T3 conversion, a sluggish gallbladder, and adrenal fatigue can all contribute to the thyroid body type.

If you have the thyroid body type, you may see the best results when you consume plenty of iodine-rich foods and go on an OMAD (one meal a day) intermittent fasting plan. This body type quiz will give you an action plan if you are a thyroid body type. 

The liver body type

Those with the liver body type typically have a protruding belly, sometimes called a pot belly or beer belly. They may also experience skin issues like psoriasis and dermatitis.

Men are most likely to have a liver body type, though women can be liver types too. Those with the liver body type have a buildup of fat cells in their liver tissue and around other organs.

Taking the body type quiz will let you know if you have a liver body type, it’s essential to avoid alcohol and excessive protein. Instead, consume plenty of salads and low-carb vegetables.
