[QUOTE="JohnyT2, post: 2120743, member: 512587"] I might be wrong, but when I have excess of vegetables, i chop them, make some gravy or prepare something from them and then deep freeze them so that I can use it when the vegetables are not available. So i dont think deep frezeer should be the best source of foods for me, its still the fresh fruits and veggies. I would go to them only when I dont have ample fresh ones available. If glucose was suppose to be toxin generated after consumption of food, then there should have been a natural way to excrete it out instead of using it as primary source of energy. What comes second to my mind is why does even plants produce glucose after photosynthesis? And then plants again convert fat back into glucose for energy. Similarly even animals produces glucose. Nature has some fine management system, we might have wrong understanding of it, but there has to be some reason why nature uses it as primary energy provider in all the systems. Humans cannot convert stored fats to glucose hence ketones comes into picture. No doubt if we reduce intake of carbs formation of glucose will be reduced, that will reduce the blood sugar levels, as when fats are used for energy we as humans dont convert it into glucose. And thats why LCHF works well, because the intake is reduced and we are powering the system with fat, so body goes into a state where it using its is made to belive that its using stored energy, hence it tries to implement the efficient ways to utilize the available energy.. Alternately if fat was such a good source of energy, carbs would not have been the preferred choice of energy when its required instantly. This are just my observation, I may be wrong, but I am trying to understand and figure out whats happening. I still agree for time being LCHF is kind of magic bullet for those who want quick resolution to the issue without taking much of physical efforts. And glad to see many have been able to make there life much better for now using the approach. [/QUOTE]
