There was an article recently about a test to determine how your body consumes calories. A majority of folks benefit from a diet low in carbohydrates, while others see losses from low fat diets. The ones who are really screwed are those that have to stay away from both. I can’t imagine eating proteins all day all of the time. It would just get boring, esp. without butter!
I’ve reintroduced natural sugars like fruits and honey, but I only eat them before I exercise so they burn off quick. They’re great for a quick burst if you use them to your advantage. Think of sugars like nitrous oxide in a race car: it’s great for a quick burst of speed, but if you use it too much, you wind up destroying the engine.
since excercise is not my friend, I hardly ever have the need for a quick burn, LOL. Yesterday would have been good to have some as I planted my mothers day flowers and tore up a couple gardens ( can’t hardly move today LOL) but on average, gardening is my only exercise. I do on occasion make use of raw honey, but medicinally, not for sweetening (when I am sick, which seems like never anymore) or if I burn myself I apply honey to the burn.
