LOW CARB DIET
Low carb dieting is not a new fad,
it has been around for many years, long before low fat diets. Thirty years ago if you wanted to
lose weight you cut out the potatoes, pastry and biscuits and reduced the bread. Nowadays low
fat diets are the norm, but if you take out the fats you lose the flavour, all processed low fat
foods have added sugar so a low fat diet makes you gain weight. This is because the body
requires energy and sugar is the first thing the body uses, give it sugar and it will store the
fats for a rainy day, if you stop eating sugar the next easiest to transform is the
carbohydrates. Cut out the carbs and the body then has to convert the fats. The first few days
of a low carb diet are probably the hardest because the body will crave the carbs. Most people
are unwittingly addicted to carbohydrates, they don't realise this until they try to reduce or
cut them out.
HOW DO LOW CARB DIETS WORK ?
By restricting carbohydrates
drastically to a mere fraction of that found in the typical American diet, the body goes into a
different metabolic state called ketosis, whereby it burns its own fat for fuel. Normally the
body burns carbohydrates for fuel -- this is the main source of fuel for your brain, heart and
many other organs. A person in ketosis is getting energy from ketones, little carbon fragments
that are the fuel created by the breakdown of fat stores. When the body is in ketosis, you tend
to feel less hungry, and thus you're likely to eat less than you might otherwise. However,
ketosis can also cause health problems, such as kidney failure.
As a result, your body changes from
a carbohydrate-burning engine into a fat-burning engine. So instead of relying on the
carbohydrate-rich items you might typically consume for energy, and leaving your fat stores just
where they were before (alas, the hips, belly, and thighs), your fat stores become a primary
energy source. The purported result weight loss.
