Food provides your body with energy and
nutrients to live. Your body forms some
indications.
Hunger indicates the requirement for
energy.
Appetite indicates the type and quantity of the needed nutrient.
The indications came after we had a fat burning metabolism and prior to it,
carbohydrates were treated as our favored sources of energy. The signals are
effective if you are willing to control fat and protein eating. If a carbohydrate
eating is there, it is irregular.
Suppose the eaten food endows you with more energy than needed and it
requires that the surplus energy be properly directed. It is a real problem of
healthy eating doctrine. Having a fat burning metabolism and eating butter or
cream lets you manage the eaten amount. Irrespective of you liking for the foods,
if you consume more than needed, it gives birth to problems. However, having a
sugar burning metabolism for taking carbohydrates as the chief source of energy
complicates the problem as it lets you consume sweets without any indication.
This lets you have too much energy for your needs.
Such surplus energy gained from carbohydrates gets metabolized into blood
sugar, or glucose. Insulin rushes forward from pancreas and it converts the
surplus glucose into body fat. Another problem remains and it is that with the
surplus energy getting into fat, the glucose in your blood becomes useless and it
makes you feel hungry again. So, it continues to more eating and resultantly to
overweight.
If you move on to carbohydrates from fats as your source of energy, it creates
more problems. This lack of consuming fats makes your body devoid of some
vital fatty acids and sterols that your body requires. It gives birth to more hunger.
Such elements can‟t be had from carbohydrates.
