The truth shall set you free!!! All the advertising in the world won't change anatomy and physiology. Right now you can even read what MARGARET Stafford is saying about the low carb craze and how the industries are overcoming their irresponsible actions. The industries know that the "Truth is easy to tell but it is not always easy to sell".
If you have been suffering on a low carb diet, you need to find out how your body actually digests food and....
...after reading this article, you will know more about the digestive process than most personal trainers in the industry. Pay close attention to how the body breaks down fats, carbs and proteins and you will immediately discover the truth behind the low carb fads. It is much more important to control your portions and here is why:
Digestive process
* Saliva contains enzymes that break any starch in the food down to sugar.
* This, along with any fat and water in the food, travel to the stomach, which churns them up.
* Pepsin (an enzyme that digests protein) and hydrochloric acid further break down the food, turning it into a substance called chyme.
* The mixture enters the duodenum, (the place where the gall bladder secretes its bile).
* This bile dissolves the fat in water, thinning it out and making it easier to absorb.
* Enzymes from the pancreas enter the duodenum and further break down thesugar, fat and protein.
* Now everything is dissolved and is in fluid form, so it is absorbed through the lining of the small bowel. Fat, sugar and protein wave good-bye to each other and go their separate ways.
What happens to the sugar:
It also goes directly into the blood stream, and several different organs take the sugar they need as it passes by.
Some is stored in the liver as glycogen. Whatever is left is converted to fat and stored in fat cells with the excess fat above.
What happens to the fat:
First, it goes into the blood stream and travels to the liver.
The liver burns some of the fat, converts some to other substances (one is cholesterol) and sends the rest to fat cells, where they wait until they are needed.
What happens to the protein:
* It is broken down into building blocks known as peptides.
* Then, it is further broken down and it becomes amino acids.
* The amino acids are absorbed through the small intestine's lining and enter the blood stream.
--->From here, some of the amino acids build the body's protein stores.
Excess amino acids are converted to fats and sugars and follow the paths described above.
This is such a simple concept, but many people still believe that consuming lots and lots of protein will put muscle on their bones.
Don't be fooled by this notion! Even excess protein turns to fat.
Summary
Discriminate - don't Eliminate. Eating too much food is the culprit! Dietary fat is obviously the substance most often stored as fat in the ends, but no matter what you eat, your body takes whatever it can't use and sends it to fat cells. If you don't burn it off or expel it, it hangs around in your fat cells, no matter what it consists of.
So, why do low carbs appear to work. It is simple.
1. If you take a way large categories of food, you have less options of food to ingest.
2. People have a tendency to binge on a bag of chips, rather than binge on a can of tuna.
3. Eating only protein causes the body to go into diuresis. This means the majority of weight loss in the beginning is water. That is the main reason everybody is claiming you need to drink so much water with your HIGH PROTEIN diets.
4. Higher Protein Diets seem to lower appetites.
SIDEBAR: After your body stops burning your fat stores and carbohydrates for fuel, your body will start cannibalizing your muscle. Irregardless of what you might think, your body will not burn all your fat off just because there is an absence of Carbs or Fat. You must know you need muscle to effectively keep burning fat.
SIDEBAR: Higher protein diets have been known to cause depression because carbohydrates are needed for proper brain function. You need a certain amount of carbohydrates if you want to keep your energy levels up and your metabolism fired up.
Here is a good rule of thumb:
If you aren't diabetic, you should have a diet consisting of 50% complex and vegetable carbohydrates, 30 % lean choice proteins and 20% fats.
If you are diabetic you might try this ratio - 40% carbs, 40% proteins and 20% fats. This will help you control your sugar as long as you aren't eating simple sugar carbohydrates.
