Читать книгу The Insulin Factor: Can’t Lose Weight? Can’t Concentrate? Can’t Resist Sugar? Could Syndrome X Be Your Problem? - Antony Haynes - Страница 39

You may be surprised to know that it is not just the number of calories you eat that results in weight loss or weight gain. This is because calorie counting does not take into account the Glycemic Index and the hormonal response to food. Calorie counting can be helpful but should certainly not be the sole focus for weight loss. The reason why a low GI carbohydrate diet helps weight control is because it helps you feel satisfied after a meal and it both minimizes insulin levels after consumption and maintains insulin sensitivity.
