Carb Fat
Carb Fat
What are some foods I could buy from the market store that is low carb/fat and still will be a meal?
i want to lose some fat and i read the best way to do it was to eat low carbs and low fat with 30 mins of running mon-sat?
A low carb way of eating is a high fat diet, otherwise it becomes a high protein diet & protein should never be used for fuel calories.
If you eat only meats without fuel calories from fats or carbs, then you convert dietary protein to fuel leaving no protein for cellular needs, forcing the body to catabolize it’s own lean tissues. Carbs may be optional, but fuel calories are not but they can come from fat or carbs, but not protein. There are not enough calories in fruits & vegs to fuel the body.
If you don’t keep your calories high enough, the body will strip it’s own lean tissue for nutrition. Although that may look great on a scale it will make it MUCH easier to accumulate fat in the future (since all that pesky lean tissue burning up calories will be gone).
Protein is a very inefficient fuel to use exclusively for long term & the byproducts of the conversion to fuel can be dangerous if they overwhelm the body faster than the body can clear out the nitrogen & ammonia..
Just for example – Someone asked “what if” about a diet of 500g of pure protein (2000 calories a day)
500g protein with no fat would be fatal. Fat is essential but protein without fat will cause diarrhea & then death. So this next bit is only hypothetically speaking.
500g of protein only would turn the protein into a fuel source and not be able to be used for tissue repairs & cellular regeneration. So although you would think 500g of protein would be sufficient for these needs, it would be converted to a very inefficient fuel source with a dangerous buildup of nitrogen & ammonia (byproducts of gluconeogenesis). The body can handle some of these byproducts but not large quantities for long term. So in essence, all this protein would be processed as fuel and the body would STILL have to catabolize it’s own lean tissues for a protein source. 100% of the protein would be needed to convert to 58% glucose – it would be equal to fueling the body with 1160 calories of carbs and NO protein (IF your only ingestion was 2000 calories (500g) in pure protein).
It’s confusing to eat SO much protein and have none bioavailable but your body requires FUEL calories (which can come from fat OR carbs or both) AND protein.
BUT if you ate more than sufficient protein with more than sufficient dietary fat calories AND controlled carbs to less than 9grams per hour. (Maximum carbs would be 144grams day or 576 calories – the balance of fuel calories would HAVE to be from dietary fats – at 9 calories per gram)
As long as you have <9grams carbs per hour, you will maintain insulin control & shouldn't gain weight, no matter the calories because insulin, the fat storage hormone is not activated. Controlling insulin levels will balance out other hormones & allow sex hormones (testosterone in males) & human growth hormone (HGH) to be produced naturally so lean tissue will be gained even without exercise.
from the article below -
Numerous current studies show that dieters who follow high-protein low-carb strategies--even plans with higher fat intake--lose more fat and maintain or gain more muscle mass than dieters who rely on higher carb diets.
Yes, you read that right--many dieters actually gained muscle mass without working out, simply by eating a high-protein diet. This is due to several factors. First, amino acids from protein drive muscle growth. When you consume a high-protein meal, amino acids from the protein travel to muscle cells and actually initiate the processes that cause muscle growth.

It takes awhile to convert the body from being fueled by glucose to being fueled by fat but it does convert. Low carb marathon runners don't "hit the wall" with mid race fuel changeovers. It's not being fueled by fat that slows them down, it's the fuel conversion period.
This study:
http://www.nutritionandmetabolism.com/content/1/1/2
seems to suggest that after one has become fat adapted, endurance exercise performance returns to normal, but sprint performance remains poor. The suggested reason is that this type of exercise can not be fueled by fat, it must be fueled by glucose.
Carb Fat
What Carbs Can Make You Gain Weight?
This world is full of tasty delicacies that we love to eat, but most of them contain a high content of carbs. However, just like all fingers of a hand are not the same, all carbs are not same. There are reasons why some of them lead to Weight Gain. For the human body to function properly, it needs a combination of carbs, fats, and proteins. The ideal ratio should be 30% proteins, 10% fats, and 60% carbs. Every food element has its use and function. Body uses proteins for muscle repair and growth. Fat is essential for the brain and nervous system whereas carbs give energy to the body and improve the immune system.
Carbohydrates lead to an increase in weight and so this article will focus on the same. There are two types of carbs, simple and complex carbs.
Simple Carbs:
Simple carbohydrates are generally termed as ‘bad’ carbs. The problem with bad carbs is that they have to be broken down and then consolidate again which produces a sweet product just like chocolate. White bread, table sugar, pasta, flour, cakes, boiled sweets, table sugar, liquorices, fudge, honey, soft drinks, plain biscuits, tinned fruits etc. are some of the food items that have simple sugars.
All these foods are very high in calories and sugar. When you consume these products, the sugar level in the blood rises very quickly and then again, suddenly comes down crashing. This sudden change in the sugar level causes to exhaustion and hunger one after the other which makes you eat more than you need.
Complex Carbs:
Wholegrain breads, muesli, brown rice and oats contain complex carbs. The process of breaking down of complex carbs into glucose is a slower one than the simple carbs and thus, the body derives steady energy for its functioning throughout the whole day. Almost all good diet plans stress on eating more vegetables like spinach, greens, broccoli, carrots etc., since these contain complex carbs.
When these complex carbs are broken down, they raise the blood sugar level, like simple sugar, but the process is much slower. This has two benefits. The first is that you won’t feel hungry for a longer period of time and also, that you derive constant energy and thus, feel active throughout the day which, in turn, leads to weight loss in the long run.
Thus, you can see why and how some carbs contribute in the process of gaining weight while some don’t. To be precise and speak in a plain and simple language, the simple carbs are those that make you fat and the best way to lose weight is trying to have less of them.
Fighting with yourself daily against the consumption of bad carbs is difficult and so you must try to give them up permanently. And the easiest way to dump bad carb is not to buy them of course! When you will be looking for a quick snack, and getting an impulse to reach to that fried chip’s packet, then it will be very easy to avoid it if it is not there anyway. Try having a good diet plan which will plan your meals properly. Then you will no longer have to think about whether the carb is bad or good.

Can I go on a low carb and low fat diet while going on Accutane?
Hi, I really want to go on this strict low cal low carb and low fat diet, and exercise as well. But, I heard that you should take the accutane pill with fatty foods, because it absorbs better? Any thoughts? Would it be dangerous or will the medicine not work well if I do go on this diet and exercise regime. Thank you.
I would suggest not doing Accutane right now. I am betting if you do a low carb way of eating, your hormones will balance out & you won’t need Accutane.
A low carb diet should NEVER be low fat or low calorie. Otherwise you are using protein for fuel (which is not healthy) & leaves no protein for cellular needs which forces the body to catabolize it’s own lean tissues. Fat is needed for hormone production, immune system & bone structure.
You can lose more body fat eating protein & fat (don’t eat protein alone) than not eating AT ALL. To lose weight fast, eat all you want, but nothing but meat, eggs, healthy oils, mayo, butter & half an avocado a day (for added potassium). Keep the calories high & the fat percentage high, at least 65% of calories. Green vegetables & some cheese will continue weight loss but at a slower pace.
The first 2 weeks eat several cups a day of (mostly) lettuce & celery, cucumbers, radishes, mushrooms, peppers & more variety of vegetables thereafter – add 5 grams per day additional every week (20 grams day first 2 weeks, 25grams 3rd week, 30grams 4th week etc) til you gain weight, then subtract 10grams. That will be your personal carb level (everyone is different & depends on how active you are.)
Start with meat, fats & salads for 2 weeks and then slowly add in more green veg, wk4 fresh cheeses, wk5 nuts & seeds, wk6 berries, wk7 legumes, wk8 other fruits, wk9 starchy veg, wk10 whole grains. You will learn how your body reacts to different foods.
The first week is just water weight but fat is lost thereafter if you keep your calories high enough. Otherwise the body will strip it’s own lean tissue for nutrition. Although that may look great on a scale it will make it MUCH easier to accumulate fat in the future (since all that pesky lean tissue burning up calories will be gone). The body won’t release fat stores if you lower calories below what it needs. It will slow metabolism to compensate & store every spare ounce as fat. If you continue lowering calories, it will continue lowering the set point, til it can survive off nothing & store fat on anything. The body will only release it’s fat stores if it knows there is plenty of nutritious food.
Eating carbs while trying to lose body fat is terribly inefficient. When in glycolysis (burning glucose as fuel) you have to lower your calories (which slows your metabolism) & exercise heavily to deplete your glycogen stores before burning body fat.
The core of Atkins program is converting the body from glycolysis (burning glucose as fuel) to ketosis (burning fat as fuel). Dietary fat levels need to be at >65% of total calories, if not, the body will still remain in glycolysis by converting 58% of excess protein into glucose (via gluconeogenesis).
It takes about 3 days to convert a body to ketosis, (but only one bite to convert back to glycolysis). People feel sluggish the first week but most feel better than ever thereafter.
Carbohydrates (sugar, flour, bread, cereal, pasta, potatoes, rice, beans) trigger insulin (the ONLY fat storage hormone). Protein triggers the fat burning hormone glucagon.
Simple carbs are addictive & can be disastrous to health. The best way to break the addiction is NO carbs for 3 days. Make a huge batch of deviled eggs, eat one every time you want “something” – have huge omelets with bacon, sausage, peppers, mushrooms & cheese. Pork chops smothered with peppers, mushrooms & cheese – pork rinds & dip or tuna/chicken/turkey/egg salad – steaks – a huge sugar free cheese cake. Eat so much you won’t feel deprived of anything. By the 4th day, the addiction will be gone & you can start making healthy choices.
High insulin levels promote inflammation, weight gain, hunger & unbalance other hormones. Controlling insulin levels will balance out other hormones & allow human growth hormone (HGH) to be produced naturally so lean muscle will be gained even without exercise.
Ground flax seed (4 Tbsp) 1/4 cup water, artificial sweetener, mix in a raw egg – let sit 10 min. to absorb liquid, put some cream cheese in the middle & nuke 2 min for daily fiber needs.
As long as you have <9grams carbs per hour, you will maintain insulin control & shouldn't gain weight, no matter the calories because insulin, the fat storage hormone is not activated. Many people gain weight on high carb, do low carb to lose weight & then are shocked when they return to high carb & gain weight. Many people can return to moderate carb levels but very few can really eat all they want of sugar & maintain weight or health.
I am adamantly opposed to low calorie dieting because most people lose a good portion of lean tissue (including vital organs like the heart) along with fat stores. There is no nutrition in fat stores, only energy. Most people get impatient and lower their calories and increase their exercise to a point where they lose so much lean tissue that when they return to what was maintenance level eating they are now accumulating more fat stores because their caloric n
