Our Life in Carbohydrates

People began to look at ways to burn calories, so they lose their troublesome weight. They are primarily related to the activities that people exercise every day. In order to lose weight, you should increase your activity and see activities that help you.

Here is a brief about carbohydrates:

Sugar is commonly used in daily life to denote the sugar used daily, sucrose is a kind of sweet sugars. It is also called table sugar or food sugar similar to the name of table salt (sodium chloride exclusively)

Scientifically; The main source of energy in the body is the primary sugars, specifically glucose (also called dextrose), which is present in abundance in fruit – especially grapes.

The glucose from the animal cell is used directly to release energy.

Carbohydrate availability of protein: When the amount of carbohydrates in the body and in particular blood glucose decreases, the liver stock of glycogen is used to compensate for the deficiency, and if depleted amount of glycogen stored in the liver is about 80-100 grams.

The body uses protein to break down protein and other parts of the body containing protein to provide glucose to the central nervous system where the body can convert protein to glucose, and as the protein performs very vital functions.

The lack of glycogen and carbohydrate in the body generally leads to the consumption of protein from the body , And this in terms of health is not in the interest of the individual.

and The presence of a large percentage of carbohydrates in the body leads to weight gain, which causes the accumulation of fat, so :

Carbohydrate diet, you should know that carbohydrate diet requires 9 weeks to implement, but at the same time can lose the person between 15 kg and 30 kilos in this period and is therefore a good way to lose weight,

The benefits of carbohydrates are the energy source required for the body and are responsible for the process of analyzing glucose and converting it into energy available to all body organs, organs, tissues and various muscles.

There are two basic types of carbohydrates: simple carbohydrates and complex carbohydrates. Simple carbohydrates are sweet in taste and are available in foods such as white sugar, honey, soft drinks and others.

These carbohydrates are easy to digest and quickly raise blood sugar levels.

The benefits of carbohydrates are that they are the source of energy in the body and their consumption helps much correctly in the success of any type of physical activity.

Carbohydrate intake before training is necessary to maintain healthy and stable levels of glucose, which prevents low energy during training, which can lead to stopping it. After training is also important to eat carbohydrates, they are necessary for the body’s recovery of effort.

Complex carbohydrates are digested less quickly and complex carbohydrates help maintain a feeling of satiety and energy levels for a period of time. These carbohydrates are available in foods such as bread, rice, potatoes, legumes, pasta and other types.
You should monitor the amount of carbohydrates you eat daily; this can help you lose weight.

Where the daily ration of carbohydrate is determined by 50 grams, provided that the sources of carbohydrates fruits and vegetables, and some simple carbohydrates.
