How Low Carb Diets Make You FAT.
video description
Low carb diets promote the release of glucagon--a hormone secreted by the pancreas that raises blood sugar. Glucagon is the yang to insulin's ying. Eating a high carb meal suppresses the release of glucagon, increases insulin levels, and the insulin lowers blood sugar which leads to hunger.
People also have different levels of sensitivity to salt; some people are salt resistant. Studies show a correlation between salt sensitivity and insulin resistance. When you eat carbs you store them as glycogen. Glycogen is mostly water, and your body needs to store water in order to store glycogen, and how does your body hold on to water? It does so by retaining salt. Now if you're insulin resistant and eat a high carb meal, what does your body do in response? It releases a relatively large amount of insulin, and intern your body retains a lot of salt and salt retention ( due to water retention ) causes high blood pressure. Freelee doesn't need to worry about this because she's an endurance athlete. Most people aren't.

Oh my goodness. eating FAT does not make you FAT. The body primarily uses CARBS for energy when available - take away the CARBS and your body only has ONE source of energy to utilize - FAT. Therefore your body naturally LEARNS how to use FAT as energy and starts to burn away your FAT storage instead of dipping into your CARB storage. Without CARBS the body HAS to burn FAT as it's the only energy source left!
Hence the (well known) weight loss result.

Oh my goodness.
Eating FAT to lose FAT may not make sense to you, but no worries - see, when you eat FAT instead of CARBS, your body uses that FAT as a source of energy, therefore TEACHING your body how to correctly USE far as energy - therefore causing FAT LOSS. When you eat CARBS they are used for energy INSTEAD of FAT because they're a faster source of energy! Take away the carbs and your body HAS to burn fat. It's simple, really.

But my grandmother lost 50 pounds on the keto diet and it's because if the body has no glucose to burn it burns fat so it'd a way to lose weight. Also the body stops craving carbs after a while on the keto diet because the body forgets about carbs after not having them for so long: debate me because I don't know what to believe at this point

LOL She's kinda like a flat earther now that science has proven High Fat Low Carb to be better for health and weight loss.
When you eat high fat, you automatically start eating less calories because Fat causes satiety. Fat doesn't spike insulin, so you never crash. Studies also show high fat diets increase brain function.

Freelee! I'm a low carb high fat vegan! I've never binged; it's called self control and TRACKING YOUR FOOD. I'm Ketogenic. I test myself to make sure I'm in ketosis and I've gotten leaner than when I was a high carb vegan. It's called different things working for different people.

Ive been vegan for years. I was high carb low fat for a while and was always bloated, gained weight and never had stable energy. As soon as I started low carb high fat I dropped weight and got stable energy. You really need to take into consideration every body has different needs

Wow. This all sounds like the same disproved garbage idiots said in the mid 1900s that set is up for today's obesity epidemic. I wish people like this would stop hiring others with their misinformation.
