[QUOTE="sanguine, post: 769163, member: 101256"] Quote from Trudi Deakin's new book (same information is elsewhere) - my bold: "[I](On LCHF)[/I] [I]initially glycogen (carbohydrate storage) is reduced, this process also releases water. Excess water is also excreted from the body when insulin levels fall.[/I]" (This is why you need to drink a lot of water and increase slightly your salt consumption). [I]"Once the body has adapted to the lifestyle, [B]it becomes efficient at burning body fat instead of storing it. [/B] Lower levels of glucose and insulin mean that [B]the switch to convert carbohydrate into fat is turned off and the fat burning switch is turned on[/B]. Fat then becomes the preferred fuel for energy ..." "Another benefit shown in clinical studies is that (LCHF) is very effective at reducing the harmful abdominal fat that causes insulin resistance ...).[/I] [/QUOTE]
