Slow Carbohydrate Diet
Jul 7th
Slow carbohydrate is carbohydrate glycemic index levels (the level difference of the effect of carbohydrates on blood glucose levels) is low to moderate. Those who follow a low glycemic diet to moderate decrease in body weight reaches a larger and more able to defend it. This is because one simple reason, namely that they keep their blood sugar remains stable, which helps their bodies remain in the zone “fat burning” during the day. Glycemic index classifies foods according to how fast food is to increase your blood sugar levels. Foods that cause rapid blood sugar increase grouped into high and very high. Meanwhile, foods that cause an increase in the slow and gradually grouped into slow to moderate in glycemic table. The reason why we need to pay attention to how fast foods increase blood sugar levels is due to sugar (carbohydrates) to trigger your body to release a hormone called insulin. We are most familiar with the insulin that works to pull sugar from the bloodstream to cells and used as energy. Unfortunately, insulin also acts as a storage hormone. When you trigger a large amount of insulin in response to high carbohydrate foods or high glycemic, insulin triggers your body to store all the extra carbs as fat.
High-glycemic foods are common and should be avoided are all foods made from refined flour and sugar. Many processed foods, frozen foods and canned foods made from refined flour and sugar. Foods such as bread, bagels, muffins, breads, pasta, cereals, pancakes, biscuits, pretzels, rice cakes, tortilla chips and cookies are classified as high-glycemic foods. Food types that should be avoided because they trigger a large amount of insulin and cause your body to store extra calories as fat.
Low glycemic foods are almost all kinds of fruits and vegetables, such as nuts, seeds, beef, chicken, fish, eggs and most wheat products. As you can see, we are talking about all natural foods that God gave to us to master. The problem is that more people who eat processed foods, fast food and not enough natural foods which God has prepared for us. It’s like a plague. Society has consumed so many refined foods, processed, fast food that trigger excessive insulin levels that cause problems such as obesity, excessive appetite, hypoglycemia (disease because it is too low blood sugar or glucose in the blood), insulin resistance, diabetes, blood pressure high, elevated triglycerides and depressed. All problems were very frequent and associated with increased insulin and Metabolic Syndrome is classified as.
The worst violations and materials we need to avoid the foods and beverages is the use of high fructose corn syrup (high fructose corn syrup) as a sweetener. All of it including all soft drinks, fruit drinks, candy, health foods and shakes. Food manufacturers will try to disguise the high-glycemic sweetener with a name like Maltodextrine, dextrose, maltose and sucrose. Please do not make a mistake with the switch and choose foods made from artificial sweeteners to consider low-fat foods or low-glycemic. It’s like a defective switch legs with hand disabilities. Both are not good.
The key to successful weight loss that comes with keeping your fat-burning zone throughout the day. High-glycemic foods or high carbohydrate snacks to make you out of your fat burning zone, because your blood sugar constantly raise and lower and trigger the hormone that is wrong. Hormone insulin is not good or not good. Insulin is only doing what needed to do. When you produce insulin in large quantities, your body will store extra carbohydrates as fat and prevent the production of glucagon, a hormone that works to break down fat. Both these hormones, insulin and glucagon, working opposite such as a seesaw. When that one up, one down and vice versa. Glucagon is a friend for those who are dieting, because of its ability to decompose fat. Proteins trigger the production of glukogan, while carbohydrates trigger the production of insulin.
When people follow a low-fat diet, they tend to eat more carbohydrates. People who eat foods that are low or no carbohydrates usually eat more protein and trigger more and more glucagon. However, the body and brain needs carbohydrates for energy and to function normally. Those low-carb diets tend to be easily agitated, because their brains are not getting enough fuel. Normal brain function depends on carbohydrates. When your blood sugar go down because of the wrong foods, such as spending hours to eat, or eat foods low in carbs, it prevents normal brain function. This is why many people struggle with appetite, feelings of irritability, rapid mood changes, difficulties with concentration and focus the mind. Their brains ran out of the main fuel, which causes various problems.

Unlike the methods which generally restrict dietary carbohydrates, fats, or proteins tightly, South Beach Diet provides the flexibility to choose the foods you love. Diet is not low-carb diet is not low-fat diet, but recommend to you to choose the type of carbohydrates and fats properly.
There are three phases in this diet:

Overall consumption of fruit, such as, apples, pears, grapes, and oranges, are not restricted. Diet on the third stage is recommended to continue to apply.

Foods that are high IG him, causing the rapid rise in blood sugar, resulting in excess insulin.
