Carbohydrates and Diet

Very often people who have problems with being overweight , decided to radically change her life and completely revise their diet. And whether they do it?


In the range of slimming has developed quite a lot of stereotypes that are already difficult to destroy. And these "dietary rules" is so firmly entrenched in the minds of all people, that they are no longer in doubt and treated as an axiom.


For example, a woman who decided to lose weight, in addition to fitness, decides to limit itself in power . What kind of products it would exclude from your diet? Of course, all sweets, flour, fat, fried foods, as well as bread, potatoes, pasta and cereal. And, if the first half of the listed products are all more or less clear what the second half is not so simple as it may seem initially.


The thing that starchy foods containing carbohydrates , fills the body faster and for a longer time than fat. As with equal caloric amount of food by weight and volume of the second group will be several times greater than the number of products from the first group.

Thus, it appears that people who do not give up pasta, potatoes and bread are much less likely to overeat and gain weight. Of course, it all works, provided that these products will be used in boiled or baked form , rather than fried with butter in a frying pan until crispy and beloved by many.


In addition, according to studies, the scientists found that the diet is dominated by thin people purged from the second group, ie foods rich in carbohydrates .


However, it should be noted that carbohydrates can be obtained from both the sweet and from starchy foods. And if you want to lose weight, naturally, is better to get carbohydrates from potatoes and pasta , than chocolate bars and cakes. Since the use of the latter, the hunger will come much faster. This will entail an intake of additional portions of food and therefore calories. And those extra calories , as you know, it's always overweight.


Therefore, when drawing up their diet, should not abandon such useful products such as baked potatoes, boiled beans, whole wheat bread and pasta, brown rice and bran flakes. Besides the fact that they contain many essential human vitamins and minerals, but also give a feeling of satiety for a long time. It's so necessary for those who count calories and trying to lose weight.
