In order to avoid the dangers of low carbohydrate dieting, your weight loss strategy should definitely be centered around a balanced eating plan. After all, balance in nutrition will give you much more energy per quantity of food eaten.
Even if you have the most balanced diet, however, fat storage can still take place. So it will be good for you to understand how different macro nutrients get processed in your body once consumed.
So without further delay, here is how nutrients get stored as fat in your body:
1. Bread, pasta, cereal. All types of carbohydrates, these foods well eventually be broken down into molecules of sugar before entering your blood stream. From there, they will be stored as glycogen and once glycogen levels are full, as fat.
2. Fat. Dietary fat gets broken down into glycerol and fatty acids. Have too much, and you will store dietary fat in the form of triglycerides. But do nost reduce your fat intake because you need it to maximize the production of fat burning hormones.
3. Sources of protein. Just like carbohydrates, all protein must be broken down into amino acids for proper assimilation to occur. Once broken down, the amino acids and be reformed into tissues and muscle mass. But if you want the protein to go to muscle mass, you have to exercise.
4. Spirits. By spirits I mean alcohol! The Achilles heel of any fat loss hopeful. Why? Because not only does alcohol slow down the rate at which you can burn body fat, but it also gets stored as fat in between your organs. And this is the worst type of fat.
Optimally, you want all the food you eat to be stored as either glycogen or protein in the form of lean tissue. Unfortunately, these stores get filled up very quickly and any excess goes to fat storage. And recall that fat stores have unlimited accumulation capacity.
Also, please do NOT think you can go all out with protein just because some experts tout its thermic effect. Why? Because even too much protein WILL be stored as body fat, no exceptions here. And please restrict that alcohol intake!
