If you’re not watching calories, you ought to be! Regardless of how enjoyable eating is for you, its primary function is to supply energy to sustain a steady body temperature and execute its primary services. Any exercise or movements you perform uses up extra calories. Every additional calorie to your body’s requirements are stored as fat for another time. It’s as simple as that. The goal of this article is to show you exactly the route your food takes once you eat it. This will finally put to rest any misleading and unhelpful old wives tales regarding healthy and sustainable weight loss.
Regardless of which diet plan you may be pursuing, the safest fast weight loss tips should highlight the need to watch the calories, and that if you eat more than you need, you need to burn off the excess. Ideally you should be doing at least 20 minutes of light exercise 3 or 4 times a week.
So what is metabolism
Metabolism is the combined processes which your body uses to convert the food you eat into expendable energy. For now, we will look at the process of metabolizing food and liquids, converting it into forms that can be used at once, into energy to give you some get-up-and-go, and to build and repair tissues and muscles, or to store for future use.
Everything starts in your digestive system. Food gets broken down into it’s core structure. Proteins are reduced into their main amino acids. All the different fats are broken into different fatty acids. Any carbohydrates reduced to glucose and glycogen. Next in the process comes the liver, which cleanses and readies the nutrients for building and repairing Anything not needed right away is stored.
Glucose from the carbohydrates you eat is put to use pretty much right away to fire your body. However, your body can only store so much glucose in it’s cells and tissues. As soon as your body is fully fueled with glycogen what’s left is converted and stored as fat. The amino acids in your food are used for repairing damaged or building new cells. Anything left over is stored as fat. Your fat cells gobble up all the fatty acids that aren’t used. Are you seeing the pattern taking shape yet? All excess nutrients that your body does not need right away are stored in your fat cells.
Learning how to lose weight is to simply appreciate the relationship your body has with food. In it’s simplest form, losing weight is all about making sure you use up and burn off more calories than you eat on a daily basis.
Do not believe any “expert” who claims to have discovered how to change the way your body uses food, or a magic combination of foods that “work together’ to hum more calories.
The Metabolism Meter
The thyroid secretes hormones that regulate metabolism. An overactive thyroid means higher meabolic rate. Which results in weight loss, even though their appetites increase. They will also feel nervous and jumpy. This is because their metabolism has been speeded up. Conversely an under active thyroid (hypothyroidism) will cause weight gain and a sluggish, low-energy feeling. Both of these conditions are serious and should be managed by a doctor..
Why We Need Water To Lose Weight
Water is critical at every stage of this process. It helps keep the process running smoothly. Even you needed anothe reason to drink more – here it is. Most of the foods we eat contain some water anyway but you still need to drink a couple of liters a day of clean, filtered water. A home water filter is the ideal option. Spread it out throughout the day. Don’t wait till you are feeling thirsty. It’s thought that the “thirst” message comes when you are already somewhat dehydrated.
