Okay. Insulin is the fat storing hormone. Your body produces insulin when there’s too much sugar in the body. Carbs – all kinds get converted to sugar. Depending how much sugar in the blood stream, your body releases insulin to combat the spike. Its why diabetes patients take insulin injections cause their body doesn’t produce enough or insulin at all.
A diet high in fats and proteins negates the need for your body to produce insulin. Controlling insulin is the key to weight loss and weight gain. In directly that’s what make carbs evil.
Sure carbs can be split into fast acting or slow acting carbs. Fast acting carbs are foods high in natural sugar. Your body breaks it down easily. Slow acting carbs are carbs like vegetables low in sugar with a lot of fibre.
