How What You Eat Gets Turned To Body Fat
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.
Unfortunately, even balanced nutrition can STILL lead to excess weight gain. So it is very important for you to grasp how different types of food interact and get shuffled away in your body.
So without further delay, here is how nutrients get stored as fat in your body:
1. Carbohydrates. With the exception of fiber, ALL carbohydrates are broken down to the most basic units of sugar. Once broken down, they get reassembled into glycogen. If you eat too much and have an excess of your glycogen needs, you will store 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. Alcohol. The thorn in your fat loss spine, alcohol is usually absorbed without any break down and is converted to excess body fat with ease. It will also slow down the rate at which your body burns fat. Even worse, it leads to the worst kind of fat storage: visceral fat.
Now no matter what you eat, food can only be stored as three things: glycogen, lean tissue protein and fat. Your body has a limited ability to store macro nutrients as glycogen and lean tissue protein. Thus, any excess gets readily stored as extra body fat.
Contrary to what many experts claim, excess dietary protein (or any macro nutrient) WILL be stored as body fat. So the key to any successful fat loss plan is the consumption of a balanced diet with a net negative caloric intake. Oh, and do not forget to avoid alcohol! - 17273
