CARBOHYDRATES
Glycemic index and load
Why?
Because unfortunately, to lose weight, it's commonly believed that it's necessary to eliminate the notorious carbohydrates from our diet.
In reality, this is not the case, our body needs all the macronutrients, and as is often said, carbohydrates are the fuel of our body.
So what we need to pay attention to is precisely the glycemic or the speed with which a specific food raises the blood sugar, causing the so-called glycemic peak.
The action of two hormones mainly mediates the blood sugar regulation system: insulin and glucagon.
When large amounts of insulin are released into the circulation, the blood sugar drops rapidly and falls below normal levels. The sudden drop in blood sugar is picked up by the body, which increases the secretion of glucagon. This hormone intervenes rapidly by stimulating the sense of hunger to bring blood sugar levels back to normal.
A virtuous circle is thus created, and most of the glucose introduced into the cells ends up being transformed into fat.
So the advice is not to eliminate carbohydrates but to choose those with a low/medium glycemic index and above all to eat in a balanced way, starting from the main meal, or BREAKFAST.

MY NEW BEGINNING
Hello everyone, as you know, my name is Andrea Scarsi.
I have been working in wellness, habits, and sport for quite some time, and I can say that it changed my life and ambitions.
I have now acquired much training and experience.
I work with a combined program focused on results, which resolves definitively (as happened to me) both excess weight for those who genuinely want to do it and increase muscle mass and performance for those who play sports.
You're seriously interested in learning more, write me.
I wish you a wonderful day.
Andrea.
