If you're not a savvy shopper, and you are trying to make good decisions when selecting groceries, one ingredient may be sabotaging all your efforts! It's sneaky, it's addictive, and it's EVERYWHERE!
If I could eliminate one ingredient entirely from your diet, it would be High Fructose Corn Syrup. No problem, you think...I don't eat that stuff anyway. Guess again! This cheap sweetener is added to almost every single processed food on the market today. Go ahead and check your cupboards...even your condiments...my guess is you'll see this little devil at the top of the ingredient list on every single one of them (unless you buy organic).
So, what is the problem with High Fructose Corn Syrup (or HFCS)? Check out the findings of this study done at Princeton University released on February 26th about the effects of HFCS and weight gain: "A Princeton University research team has demonstrated that all sweeteners are not equal when it comes to weight gain: Rats with access to high-fructose corn syrup gained significantly more weight than those with access to table sugar, even when their overall caloric intake was the same.
In addition to causing significant weight gain in lab animals, long-term consumption of high-fructose corn syrup also led to abnormal increases in body fat, especially in the abdomen, and a rise in circulating blood fats called triglycerides."
Over a period of six months, the rats fed a HFCS diet (compared to those just eating rat chow) showed characteristics of metabolic syndrome, weight gain (especially in the abdominal (visceral) region where sugar likes to stick and make its' home), and a large increase in triglycerides (a type of blood fat). If your triglycerides are high, you are at a much higher risk of coronary artery disease and diabetes.
The very interesting part of the study is that only the rats who were fed HFCS exhibited the above characteristics, while those eating plain sucrose (table sugar) did not. "The critical differences in appetite, metabolism and gene expression that underlie this phenomenon are yet to be discovered, but may relate to the fact that excess fructose is being metabolized to produce fat, while glucose is largely being processed for energy or stored as a carbohydrate, called glycogen, in the liver and muscles."
So, are all calories created equal? Apparently not. I urge you...I will even get down on my knees and beg you to get this ingredient out of your cupboards and out of your system. Please, be an ingredient reader. A fat burning overview can help you produce a clear describe of what you require to focus on to complete your fat reducing target if you're a starter; or serve as a reminder for these who are at an advanced or more improve level of their weight-loss strategy. Applying are seven steps that can serve as methods for your special weight loss program. The first thing that one must understand is that losing weight and losing fat is not the same. Many weight loss plans have tricked people into wondering that it is the same, but most diets and weight loss applications only work by producing a person's body to burn more muscle cells and water than actual body fat, more help please visit The Fat Loss Factor. Even if you're at a so-called health food store like Sunflower Market. If you see that nasty four letter word (HFCS), throw it where it belongs...in the garbage!
