Everyone knows rule #1 with dieting when looking to shed unwanted body fat. You’ve got to cut out the sugars! Unfortunately this is easier said than done for most people.
There is no question that excess sugar in the body is one of the primary reasons that people struggle with fat loss. However, it’s not the calories in sugar that poses the problem but rather the impact sugar has on the hormonal systems in your body.
Consuming a diet high in processed sugars, refined foods, and starch carbohydrates combined with a lack of exercise is almost a sure-fire way to develop insulin resistance and metabolic X syndrome.
You’ve got to control insulin levels and improve sensitivity at the cell receptors if you’re ever going to have a chance with removing body fat. While there are medications to help regulate blood sugar level, no medication on the face of the earth will correct the root of the problem.
When it comes to weight loss insulin is one of the most important hormones in the mix. The majority of people who are overweight have some degree of what’s called “insulin resistance.”
