High Insulin Levels
There are several weight-loss strategies that few people know
and that are extremely effective in helping you lose weight fast! In fact, there is one simple strategy
that can literally turn your body into a 24-hour-a-day fat burning machine!
In this article we will explain what it is, why it is so effective and how you can easily incorporate it into your lifestyle in order to assist your weight-loss efforts.
The little-known secret for quick weight loss is this:
By doing so your blood insulin level remains low and by avoiding high insulin levels, your body can access and burn fat all day long. You see, insulin is a storage hormone and when you have a meal, particularly if it is high in carbohydrate, your pancreas releases insulin into the blood stream in order to bring your blood sugar back down to a normal level again.
This is an essential function because high levels of sugar in the blood stream actually damages blood vessels and nerves and that is why diabetics tend to have a far greater incidence of heart disease and stroke compared to the rest of the population.
Unfortunately, the human body only has a limited capacity for storing carbohydrate. It can store some in the muscles and some in the liver but once these storage sites are full where else can it go? You guessed it, FAT! Any excess sugar (carbohydrate) in the blood stream is stored in the fat cells around the body, particularly in the major fat-storage areas like, the hips, thighs and stomach.
Worse still, is the fact that high insulin levels stop the body from mobilising and utilising fat as a fuel source; it stops fat burning in it's tracks! Therefore, if you want to burn off body fat and you want to burn it off quickly, then you must find ways to avoid high insulin levels and keep insulin as low in your body as you possibly can. In a moment we will cover all the steps you need to take in order to do this effectively.
The concept of avoiding high insulin levels is employed by promoters of low-carb diets. These diets help people lose weight because the body loses stored carbohydrate from the liver and muscles and therefore a substantial amount of water as well. These diets also promote weight loss because cutting carbs means insulin levels are also substantially reduced, which therefore helps the body use more stored fat as a fuel source.
However, the problem with low-carb diets is that they are virtually impossible to stick to long term mainly because they eliminate so many foods from your diet. Also, they may result in nutritional deficiencies due to the lack of fruits and vegetables present in them, and may also increase the risk of certain diseases.
Nevertheless, it is possible to embrace the primary positive aspect of these diets, avoiding high insulin levels, without reducing your overall carbohydrate intake.
A low insulin level, or more specifically, a stable blood sugar level, is easy to achieve by following a few simple steps:
Control your carbohydrate intake Take GI Factor with lunch and dinner Perform some exercise at least 5 days a week
Controlling your carbohydrate intake is actually very easy to do. It simply involves being conscious of your meal portion sizes and also the source of your carbohydrates.
If you aim for between 10-20 grams of carbs per meal (assuming you have 5 small meals a day), then that should be an adequate amount of carbs for the day and will help you keep your blood sugar level stable and avoid high insulin levels.
When it comes to the sources of carbohydrate, allow yourself 1-2 serves a day of high-density carbohydrates (bread, pasta, rice, cereals), 2-3 serves a day of medium-density carbohydrates (fruit, starchy vegetables, dairy products) and 4-6 serves a day of low-density carbohydrates (broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, carrots, etc.)

GI Factor contains a range of powerful glucose disposal agents (GDAs) that have the effect of disposing of glucose from the blood stream.
By taking 1 capsule with lunch and dinner you can make it far easier for your body to keep your blood sugar level stable and avoid high insulin levels, which means you will have an environment in your body that is conducive to burning fat as a fuel very efficiently.
There is no need to take GI Factor with your breakfast because your blood sugar level tends to be low at this time anyway.
GI Factor will also get rid of any sugar cravings you may get in the afternoon or evening.
Exercise makes the insulin receptors on cell membranes more receptive to the action of insulin. Therefore, less insulin is required to shuttle the glucose into cells.
By producing less insulin, more fat may be moilised from the fat stores and utilised as a fuel source.
These 3 easy steps will have you losing fat faster than you ever thought possible and without having to starve yourself or exercise excessively. They simply follow the basic principles that govern how the body burns fat. Perform these steps for the next 3 weeks and prepare to be amazed at how quickly your body will change!
