Lose Fat & Build Muscle By Choosing Foods That Modulate Insulin

Lose Fat & Build Muscle By Choosing Foods That Modulate Insulin



Lose fat and build muscle by choosing foods that modulate insulin and keep you energized. This is best done by eating a low-carb, high-protein diet and managing your blood sugar by eating foods that produce a low-glycemic response. This tip will give you strategies to modulate insulin so that you have some flexibility in your diet and don’t feel like a social outcast because you can only eat green vegetables and meat all the time!

The key to fat loss and an awesome physique is to eat meals that are slowly digested so that glucose or sugar is released into your blood very gradually. This even, moderate release of glucose allows for an equally moderate release of the hormone insulin from the pancreas—remember the function of insulin is to shuttle energy into your cells. Insulin also aids in getting the nutrients necessary for protein synthesis and muscle development into the muscle cells, which is the reason it can help you build muscle if you use insulin to your advantage.

Foods that are low-glycemic, such as meat, nuts, and green vegetables, result in this ideal, moderate release of glucose and insulin. In contrast, higher glycemic foods, such as grains, refined or processed foods, and some fruits, will be digested very rapidly and raise your blood sugar with a bang. This leads to a lot of insulin being released all at once, and unless you’ve just done a very strenuous workout that used up all your stored energy, a greater percentage of the glucose will be stored as fat.

It also means there will be excess insulin floating around, which causes inflammation, basically damaging the cells. However, if you moderate your glycemic response correctly, your body will work like a machine, ensuring that the food you eat is stored as energy in the muscle and used in your brain to enable optimal cognitive function.

Research shows that this method works: A recent study tested the effect of having people eat either low- or high-glycemic diets for a month. The low-glycemic diet resulted in a 43 percent lower glucose level and a 27 percent lower insulin level during the four hours after eating meal.

The extreme solution to managing your glycemic load is to eliminate all high-glycemic foods. However, it’s useful to have some tools so that you aren’t overly restricted. For instance, foods that effectively lower the glycemic response include dark red, blue, and purple fruits (blueberries, cherries, blackberries, strawberries), certain fats (omega-3s DHA and EPA , or coconut oil), and herbs such as fenugreek. Use these foods by eating them with higher glycemic foods because the body ends up requiring less insulin to get the job done, leading to less damage from the carbs. The following are some additional ways of managing the glycemic response:

• Pair berries with oatmeal or whole wheat toast with sugar free blueberry jam
• Get whole grain bread that is cooked with the herb fenugreek—research shows this meal improves the blood sugar response of diabetics.
• Mix cinnamon in yogurt and add berries—dairy is very insulogenic.
• Cook with coconut oil or olive oil when preparing higher carb foods to minimize the glycemic load. Or if you don’t have control over the fat used to prepare food, take fish oil with your meal to manage your insulin.
• Fenugreek, bitter melon, and cinnamon are three herbs that have been proven to be highly effective at lowering blood sugar. You can buy capsules of each and take them with meals.

as with all diets check with your physician to make sure it is right for you.

A simple blood test can help determine if you have diabetes or are borderline.

Recently diagnosed as type 2 diabetic, I have changed my diet, lost 13lbs with 7 more to go then maybe another 5.

Fruits still essential, the berries are the best for sure and must cut back/cut out juice other than from the natural fruit. If you don't like yogurt, replace it with 1/4 cup of skim or 1% with black, blue, rasp or straw berries add some cinnamon and mix in a blender that should make 10-12 ounces of smoothie for your day. When I tire of that or don't have time, I put the berries on the oat cereal/meal or puffed wheat.

All greens are great, broccoli, cucumber (mix it with vinegar/pepper), celery, brussel sprouts, green pepper and lettuce are my choices.

My nuts of choice (hahaha) are almonds and walnuts (they are expensive but a handful a day really helps).

I wasn't aware of cherries but that's great to know! I do eat 1/2 prunes daily for regularity.

Question for Bosco, where to buy fenugreek bread, I've been using whole wheat flaxseed bread, and would like to try this other type. Would GNC have the fenugreek tablets?


BTW Bosco, you've been posting really great health information for some time now. Maybe it's time to put all of your threads into the Health area discussion as well. Just makes it easier to search.


Thanks for your information.

did you self diagnose your diabetes?

The diet you are working with, does it comes from recommendations made by a professional??

 

[HOF]

Papa,

It comes from my doctor, who showed me the blood results and gave me a great deal of information on what was good/bad but not how to put it all together that is for me to do. Years ago when I found out that I had high-cholesterol, I had to do the same thing; so I did my own research with the diabetes association, have re-read the south beach diet which is not just a weight loss trend; it has many positive qualities for everyone's health, and a friend that is type two as well who gave me many suggestions.

Papa, there was not alot for me to cut out or switch too. White starch switched to whole grain, many vegetables eaten raw versus cooked, coca-cola gone (I have switched to diet or coke zero-still not good overall, but I've limited it and taken the sugar content out), no processed meat or cheese. Tuna daily (mainly lunch with a salad), fish 2/3 times for dinner, red meat once a week, chicken/turkey 2/3 times weekly. Nothing battered or fried. It's grilled or baked. Everything I buy now, I read the labels. I don't count calories; I count fats, carbs, cholesterol, sodium and sugars, and, for me, it's most important to measure portions 1/3-1/2 of the plate should be greens/vegetables, 1/4 whole-wheat carbs or none and 1/4-1/3 fish/meat. Snack on raw vegetables throughout the day.

I've lost 13 lbs in 38 days, so that's well within reason and although I carried it well, I had it to lose. The last 7-12 will be slower to lose but I'll get there. I get my bloodwork tested again in late November and see the doctor in early December and there will be significant changes to my levels and overall health. It really has not been difficult.

Do I cheat, yes. I have had 16 light beers in 5 weeks through social activity and I'll have that cut down significantly over the cold months to virtually none. I drink 2/2.5 litres of water daily.

Where I live, I climb the escarpment stairs 3 times weekly (hard on the knees as they're uneven) and walk 3 km daily.

There is a health food store called "Goodness Me" It's owned by a husband/wife that started it when he found out he was type 2 diabetic. All of their products are geared for healthy eating and living, so I've shopped there a few times as there are some products that I like that no other store offers, but the majority of foods can be bought anywhere, just do some research and always read the labels.

BTW, lentils and beans with 1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar is a great carb supplement.

Thanks dudes.

I cook my meals with beer instead of olive oil.

I'm finding hard to keep the weight off now that summer is over and I don't enjoy walking in the colder weather. I haven't gained it all back by no means but I'm struggling with keeping it off or losing more.

Then it's all about your diet. Have you ever thought about walking indoors like a mall! Many, if not all, have early morning walk programs for seniors but anyone can go.

 

[blackram]

I've personally been reducing processed sugars in my diet as much as possible, but am still having trouble getting rid of starches.
