So since I have been on Atkins, somthing has become glaringly clear, our bodies are in constanst motion and we are either burning fat or we are storing fat. Now I can see the since behind Atkins, Weight Watchers, Nutri System and the host of other diet regimens. It is all about reducing high glycemic food combinations.
High glycemic foods puts your body in a fat storing mode immediately, while foods high in fiber and protein slow down that release of insulin into your gut. And actually fat is not the culprit in your diet. Fat is the result but not the culprit.
A lot of these diets are nothing more than science but they have to find a way to fit it into our lives as humans otherwise like so many people we would not be able to keep up with the science of the human body. Now the real trick is, if you stay the course for six weeks or more you will inherently learn that very science about the bodies need for food and how to use it.
I used to think eating a bowl of grapes was nutrious only to a point, and once I exceeded that point nutrition became high glycemic. You really have to know a portion size and what combination of foods yeild the results your body needs. So in your spare time, read up on high glycemic foods and what they do to the process in the body.
