Rotate
"Carbs" for Rapid Fat Loss
By Registered
Dietitian Jayson Hunter
Millions of people have tried both ?low-carb? and ?no-carb?
approaches in an attempt to lose weight quickly. But few have tried
a much safer and healthier approach known as Carb Rotation. It is a
much more effective and realistic method of rapid fat
loss.
There are two general approaches to Carb Rotating.
The first approach is to follow a ?no, no, no, high carb? program.
This means you would eat no carbohydrates at all for the first three
days and then eat a ?high? amount of carbohydrates on for the fourth
day. The fifth day you are back to eating ?no carbs? again.
This plan can be effective, but you have to be very strict.
It is an aggressive approach that may trigger your starvation
response. Yes, the very same starvation response which causes
elevation of a hormone called lipoprotein lipase. When this hormone
becomes elevated your metabolism begins to slow down. And since that
is the last thing anyone who is trying to get rid of unwanted pounds
wants, it is not the approach I recommend.
Additionally, when
people deprive themselves completely of ?carbs? for three days they
have a tendency to:
1) Go completely overboard with
carbohydrate consumption on the fourth day of the rotation.
2) Not be able to go back to the three days of carbohydrate
deprivation resulting in failure of the program.
The much
more common sense approach is to follow a ?high, low, no carb?
program. There is much more room for error with this type of plan.
It is much easier to follow and leads to much greater success.
Rotating your ?carbs? in this manner allows you to shed fat
and keep your metabolism elevated, which is the key to long term
weight loss. There is a consistent transition with a ?high, low, no?
approach because every fourth day you repeat the cycle and you
aren?t depriving yourself of ?carbs? for three days straight. And
again: potentially triggering the elevation of lipoprotein lipase.
We tend to eat too many ?carbs?, we eat improper ?carbs? and
we don?t eat enough protein in our diet. But by following the
guidelines laid out in a ?high, low, no carb? program we are
manipulating the blood sugars and insulin response in our body to
achieve rapid of fat loss. Rotating Carbs allows you to control and
manipulate your blood sugars and insulin response so you are
allowing your body to burn more calories for energy instead of
storing ?carbs? as fat. This means you are shedding fat and
increasing your metabolism. Two very good things!
