weight or fat?
weight
Some may say it's not safe, but The Cambidge Diet is a great way to lose Weight & Fat very quickly whilst protecting valuable muscle tissue. You will gain the weight back though unless you are VERY careful.
H. Did you do the slimfast plan?![]()
I fail to see how you can lose fat very quickly whilst protecting muscle tissue. The only way to lose weight very quickly would likely be from seriously dropping calories.....which would result in a severe drop of carbohydrate. The weight loss is likely to be glycogen and water - hence the big drop in bodyweight after only a few days on the diet.
Muscle would obviously be spared due to the lack of carbohydrate.
Unless anybody can enlighten me, i fail to see how these sort of diets preserve muscle tissue. Anyone?
all I remember learning is you lose water, muscle then fat.
The best diet to lose weight is to consume the foods you like. In addition, exercise, which is crucial to long-lasting weight loss. With determination, everybody can lose weight in a healthy way.
While taking a good planning in your daily meal plan,that would make you strong and healthy.And also you should take care about your diet and calories you take in your diet that would be the important for you.
1.The best diet to lose weight is includes foods that have a high nutrition value. This food generally provides a balance of vitamins, proteins, fats, minerals, carbohydrates and fiber. The most important facts of all, drink more water and less soft drink.
2. Eat more portion of the good foods. Go for fresh vegetables instead of crisps. Add edible growth of plants to your cereal at morning meal. Use the salad counter when you go out for midday meals or to the food market store, and load up on juice rather than usual instant coffee, tea or fizzy drink.
Ketosis is another name for the "fat burning" process. When you start a VLCD (very low calorie diet), during the first one or two days your body uses glucose (a simple sugar stored by the body as the complex carbohydrate glycogen), for its main energy requirements. Once the body has used up its stored carbohydrate, it then switches to its other energy source - unwanted fat. A ketogenic diet is very low in carbohydrate.
The body's stored fat is broken down into little fatty acid molecules called ketones and these circulate taking energy to all the tissues in the body. The Cambridge Diet has been carefully researched and formulated so that when used diets such as Cambridge Diet and Lighter Life, it has just enough carbohydrate for immediate energy and none left over for storage and induces a mild ketosis. The smallest intake of additional carbohydrate can upset this fragile balance and cause carbohydrate to be stored along with water, causing a plateau.
The mild ketosis is an intrinsic part of the design of the a VLCD because it has significant benefits - it is the key to the comfort for the dieter:
- It reduces the feeling of hunger - removing the temptation to err!
- It induces a sense of well-being with good energy levels
Far from being harmful, ketosis is an important safety factor - the body gets all the energy it needs from the breakdown of its fats stores, thus protecting muscle tissue and vital organs- Ketones are the products produced by your body when it burns fat. Your body excretes these ketones in the urine and when you breathe out.
So the diet would be pretty useless for an athelete. If the diet is very low in carbohydrate, at some point muscle tissue will have to be used for energy. Around 15% of energy comes from protein during exercise anyway so muscle loss is obviously going to happen.
Other than that, speedy weight loss for the non-athlete.
So essentially a high protein diet/Atkins type thing.
ono -it starts to get very complicated.You start getting in to carbs - those that sugar those that don't - check out how food labels are listed.
Not from what I've always been taught. Essentially fat is your guarantee in case of famine so your body doesn't want to lose it until it has to.
Which is why so many people who yo-yo diet end up fatter than when they started, they've lost muscle/muscle burns calories, they've also slowed they metabolic rate by starving, as soon they start eating 'normally' you body goes great! Famine over, lets store fat incase there's another one.
