I love when people share great information on Facebook… Just recently a friend shared the below link which is an advertisement but also has some great info that I’d like to share.
Have you ever heard of Carb Intolerance? Carb Intolerance is when your body can’t handle processing sugar and starch which shuts off your skinny switch and puts on fat fast – especially foods that quickly turn into sugar… and this isn’t just the normal suspects like cookies, chocolate, soda and fruits juices – it is also foods like cereal, bread, rice, potato and corn. Why? Because insulin floods your body when ever you eat sugary and starchy food, and insulin shuts down your bodies ability to break down fat. – Did you know that a supposed healthy bran muffin produces 432% more sugar by your body than if you swallowed a table spoon of sugar directly? Crazy right?
And the REALLY scary thing is you are now rapidly accumulating fat all over you body with the inability to burn it off no matter how hard you try!
But there is a solution – eat delicious satisfying foods that keep your there are foods out there that turn ON your skinny switch – Foods like Farm Feed Beef, Free range chicken, wild salmon, green peppers, vine ripe tomatoes – also whole eggs, real butter and organic or real bacon. These are what Dr. Johnny calls the Johnny Bowden 4 food groups – Foods you can Hunt-Gather-Fish-or Pluck. Like protein, fats, vegetables, nuts and fruit. These foods keep your insulin in check allowing your fat burning hormone glucagon to work its magic.
These food also stimulate what he calls the “Flab fighting Triads” – Hormones, Enzymes and Ketones…. The Hormone Glucagon stimulates the fat burning enzyme HSL which shrinks fat cells so it can be turned into energy, the end result is we burn our own fat for fuel. Our liver takes this fat and converts it into ketones and our body uses these ketones as energy.
Bottom line – Fat loss is a matter of keeping your insulin levels in check which allows Glucagon to enter your system and do it’s job.
So Dr. Johnny’s sales pitch is on how to Control Cravings which has nothing to do with will power by the way. My guess is that he is going to have you add protein to each meal because eating protein with a carbs or a starch slows the sugar absorption into your system – preventing insulin spikes which help curb cravings….. but if you happen to buy his program and I’m off base here I’d love for you to let me know.
Really great stuff right? I’ve learned a lot this week – I hope you have too!
