Why your low carb diet may not be working...
Let me introduce myself quickly.
My name is Sheena MacLennan. This journey started a year ago when I was looking for a way to get rid of post pregnancy pounds. I scoured the internet looking for sweet, low carb recipes but I wasn't sure what to make of all the various sugar replacements.
As a journalist I have a strong skeptical streak. So I decided to do my research.
Agave syrup seemed like a great low glycemic solution.
But in fact agave is worse for you than ordinary sugar!
Agave syrup is a refined product that is composed of up to 90% fructose. This is very hard for the body to process. In fact fructose is more readily converted to fat and easier to store as excess pounds on your body compared to other nutrients. Take a look at a recent study:
32 overweight men and women were instructed to drink a sweetened drink three times a day. In one group the drinks were sweetened with glucose and in the other group they were sweetened with fructose. |
Ten weeks later both groups had gained three pounds, but not in the same place. The fructose group gained a disproportionate amount of abdominal fat - the most dangerous type of fat! The fructose group also had a worsening of blood glucose control and insulin sensitivity.(Kimber, Stanhope, Schwarz et al; "Consuming fructose-sweetened, not glucose-sweetened, beverages increases visceral adiposity and lipids and decreases insulin sensitivity in overweight/obese humans" 2009) |
I threw out my agave.
Then I read surprising new research on artificial sweeteners.
Artificial sweeteners promote weight gain in rats...
Let's take a look at the research:
Researchers fed two groups of rats yoghurt.
In the first group the yoghurt was sweetened with sugar. In the second group it was sweetened with saccharin.
The researchers noticed that over two weeks the rats given saccharin yoghurt ate more than the other rats. Apparently their appetite had been stimulated.
What's more they gained more weight and their body fat increased.
"The data clearly indicate that consuming a food sweetened with no-calorie saccharin can lead to greater body-weight gain and adiposity than would consuming the same food sweetened with a higher-calorie sugar."(Swithers, Davidson; The Journal of Behavioral Neuroscience 2008:feb.)
Whoahh...
AND - the rats fed with saccharin showed a decrease in core temperature which means their metabolism had SLOWED DOWN.
Why?
Apparently low calorie sweeteners may confuse the body by interfering with the natural ability of the body to use sweet taste to estimate caloric content. |
The body has learnt that a sweet taste means a lot of calories, but when you eat foods sweetened with artificial sweeteners the body learns it can no longer use its sense of taste to gauge calories. The body may be fooled into thinking a product sweetened with sugar has no calories and, therefore, you overeat. So - I reached the conclusion that to eat healthily, and slimly, I just had to forsake cakes and cookies all together. |
I was wrong...
Because then I discovered yacon syrup.
Yacon syrup is derived from the Yacon plant, a tubular plant in the Andean region of South America, and tastes like honey or molasses. I didn't have any high hopes, but then I found research that seemed too good to be true.
When yacon syrup was given daily to obese women over a 120...
