The Top Three Weight Loss Saboteurs
A staggering 69.2% of adults age 20 years and over are overweight or obese in this country.
The rate of childhood obesity in this country has more than doubled in children and tripled in adolescents in the past 30 years.
In the late 70’s there was a mandate to cut fat consumption in this country.
We did, but replaced the same total calories with sugar…
• A normal cell is covered with receptors for sugar
• The “receptor” is basically just a shuttle that allows sugar to go in
• When the sugar goes into the cell, our body uses it for energy
• Insulin acts like a key to open that shuttle
• When you eat sugar, you release a small amount of insulin
• That small amount of insulin helps your body move the sugar from your blood into your cell’s powerhouse to use as energy
When things go wrong • If you eat a whole lot of
glucose, your body instantly recognizes this as an emergency
• Insulin spikes to use as much glucose as possible in the cells
• You can’t use all of it, so the rest gets packaged as triglycerides (cholesterol) and stored as fat as quickly as possible.
• Your body has effectively switched to storage mode
• If this happens too often, the insulin stops unlocking the shuttle and you just store
Sugar
•Fatigue after meals
•Sweet cravings
•Abdominal weight
•Family history of diabetes
•Eating carbs doesn’t satisfy hunger for carbs
•Acne / facial hair / hair loss
•Frequent yeast infections
All calories are NOT created equal…
•1000 calories at 90% fat •0.9 pounds weight loss per day
•1000 calories at 90% protein •0.6 pounds weight loss per day
•1000 calories at 90% carbs •0.24 pounds weight gain per day
Do not fool yourself.There is a DIRECT relationship between increased Carbohydrate intake and fat gain.
