Circulating sugar cause blocked fat usage

For those people who consider shedding extra pounds must understand the biomechanism of digestion and stay away from any foods of high glycemic carbohydrates. Different carbohydrates have different effects on the body’s blood sugar level. We are not as physically active as decades ago. If we are sedentary and sit at computer all day, our energy needs are not the same as the carpenters in building house.

The most important point is that we need to provide our body with good quality carbohydrates with low glycemic carb index. Unfortunately, the carbohydrates are so refined today. We are ingesting way more sugar than our body can process. We should limit processed carbohydrates, especially starchy ones, e.g. lasagna, bread, cookies, pizza, crackers and cereals. It is because high glycemic carbohydrates are converted into immediate glucose upon ingestion. As our blood sugar levels rise, insulin is produced by the pancreas instantaneously and signals the cells to absorb blood sugar to be used for energy. However, if the sugar level is way beyond the limited capacity of liver and pancreas can handle, this sugar overflow will make our bodies becoming fat-storing machine, especially the waist area. High glycemic carbs not only cause an unnatural surge in blood sugar but they also cause prolonged surge, stimulating the pancreas to secrete large amounts of insulin. These excessive release of insulin makes us fat and blocks the use of fat to be used for energy.
