Do you know what glycemic index is? Why does that even matter?! How can we utilize this knowledge to help us lose/maintain weight.
Check out what the founder of my program, Dr. Wayne Andersen, says:
“The typical Western diet of highly processed, high-glycemic foods causes blood sugar to rise dramatically, increasing insulin levels. This elevated insulin level actually then causes blood sugar to plummet, creating the rapid rise and fall you see in the chart. When insulin levels stay elevated, the body continuously uses glucose for fuel, rather than both glucose and fat. And when it’s not needed as fuel, all that extra energy creates fat cells.”
When we switch our fuel source from carbs to fat, we not only rid our bodies of excess and harmful fat but we also increase our energy dramatically!
