Powerful Tip #1\u00a0<\/strong><\/span> Intermittent Fasting<\/h3>\n

\"carb<\/a><\/p>\n

Intermittent fasting<\/a> is done by skipping meals, this means that a conscious effort is made to eat only at certain periods of the day.<\/p>\n

Once the window or time frame that you have chosen to eat has passed then no meals should be consumed. It is essentially a decision to skip meals.<\/p>\n

The majority of people across North America consume carbohydrates in the morning.\u00a0 By fasting breakfast, you eliminate any chance of consuming those carbs.<\/p>\n

Consuming carbs early in the morning is not a great idea because upon wakening, cortisol levels are high and the worst thing you can do to your body is to eat a carbohydrate source spiking your insulin.<\/p>\n

High Cortisol + Spiking Insulin = Fat Gain!<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you are interested in fasting, here’s a simple chart below to get you started.<\/p>\n

Example:<\/h3>\n

\"carb<\/a><\/p>\n

When you are fasting\u00a0 your body will use the fat on your body to produce energy (rather than carbs) because there is no readily available energy from food.<\/p>\n

So when you fast, you are in essence forcing your body during a period of your choosing, to use the fat that it has been stored to produce the energy it needs.<\/p>\n

While fasting may go against the conventional wisdom that advises that you eat six small meals a day for weight loss, there is a lot of logic behind why this kind of approach to weight loss makes perfect sense.<\/p>\n\r\n

When you eat, your body releases the hormone insulin in order to keep your blood sugar level safe.<\/p>\n

Insulin carries any excess glucose that the body produces out of the bloodstream to your liver, your muscles or fat cell storage.<\/p>\n

Insulin, however is a double edged sword because not only does it take sugar out of the blood, it also increases the amount of fat that is stored.<\/p>\n

So when you diet by choosing to eat six small meals a day, as is often recommended, you are essentially giving your body license to produce a hormone that increases fat, six times throughout the day.<\/p>\n

\"carb<\/a><\/p>\n

By fasting intermittently you select the window during which insulin will be released, herein lies the advantage spoken about earlier.<\/p>\n

This essentially puts the power of weight loss fully in your hands unlike so many other methods.<\/p>\n

Also, when you fast the amount of growth hormone released is increased while you are sleeping and in the period immediately after fasting.<\/p>\n

This release of growth hormones helps you to grow and build muscle.<\/p>\n

Powerful Tip #2\u00a0 <\/strong><\/span>Carbs At The Right Times<\/h3>\n

\"carb<\/a><\/p>\n

Carbs can be a double edged sword.\u00a0 They can be your BEST friend or your worst nightmare.\u00a0 When used properly you can eat your favorite cheat food carbs<\/a> with friends and family on weekends and still lose weight.<\/p>\n

There are 2 common types of carbs:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Complex Carbs or Slow Digesting Carbs (Low Glycemic)<\/li>\n
  2. Simple Carbs or Fast Digesting Carbs (High Glycemic)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Which one’s are better?\u00a0 Well that all depends on your goals.<\/strong><\/p>\n
