What's the single, biggest most important change that if you apply will make the biggest impact on your health, figure, and fitness? This is SUGAR, FUCTUSE and related sugary foods. Isn’t that amazing that by cutting one nutrient we achieve significant transformation in a matter of days? The reason for this leverage is our body blood sugar mechanism. When we eat sugar we jump our blood sugar level to the sky. The pancreas secrets insulin to lower the blood sugar back to the normal level, but since the body doesn’t need all this fuel for energy, it goes to fat storage. But fat accumulation is not the only bad result. Sugar increases the probability of a deadly disease as diabetes; it accelerates aging, and increases the fatty deposits that cause heart attack. Sugar isn't your only enemy. It has a "buddy" The name of the other "bad guy" is high-fructose corn syrup. This is more dangerous than sugar and trickier as well. Fructose is a disguised lower Glycemic Index. But its impact is harmful as sugar. You mistakenly consume it almost in every processed food because it's an excellent preservative. If you want to get fast results in loosing weight and improve your health by leaps and bounds, cut you high-fructose corn sugar right now! You should still eat fruit. They have high fiber and antioxidant content. Please, be very religious about refraining high-fructose corn syrup and in few days or weeks you start to see changes in your body even without changing anything else. Check carefully labels and you will find good substitutes to all your current food that contain fructose. Believe me, almost everything contains fructose. Even "innocent" products as mustard, ketchup, etc. But the worse are the "healthy" low fat products that fructose improve their taste. No sugar. No Fructose. And just wait for the results. I cannot make it. To hard to refrain of sugar... That's a myth. It's easy because you want it and you get support from your body (and that can take some time). The sugar and high-fructose corn syrup create a vicious cycle in your body. The drop of blood sugar after insulin secretion is the seed for the next sugar craving and so on. But the major problem is also the key to success. When you stop eating sugar and high-fructose corn syrup, eventually you stop craving for them, because you are out of the blood sugar “rollercoaster”. If you have sweet mouth, I suggest you to replace the sugar in your cooking with artificial sweeteners that will keep your blood sugar low.
