The journey for fat loss doesn’t stop there……

In todays society everyone is weight conscious and with the easily available processed foods it is so hard to make a decision on what are the right foods to eat. There is a misconception of high fat foods cause us to gain weight and increase cholesterol.

However if you look at how and when we started to get ‘fatter’ it has all come about when health specialists were concerned about the fat content in our diet. Food companies then decided to create products that are so called fat free or 97 per cent fat free. In doing so they replaced fat with artificial sugar and other preservatives to keep the taste of the food somewhat the same. We now have more cholesterol and weight problems than ever before.

Healthy fats supress the appetite, balance hormones and have a lower insulin sensitivity then carbohydrates. Insulin is a fat store hormone and should be monitored those looking to increase fat loss.
