How Do I Know If My Body Is Burning Sugar And Fat
If your body is burning sugar, you will find it difficult to go
beyond two hours or so without felling hungry. this happen because sugar burn’s
faster then fat, so anytime you lack behind your will now see your self feeling
hungry. Remember since you’re burning sugar the fat now keep accumulating up
which therefore turn your body to a fat storing mode instead of fat burning
mode. With this situation, there is no amount of weight loss pills or programs
that would be able to yield result, even if you see result the over weight will soon
come back because of the hidden sugar you’re still taking everyday.
BUT
If your body is burning fat as it primary form of fuel, you can actually go for six hours without feeling hungry because fat doesn't burn fast as sugar. When you’re burning fat, the body is also indirectly burning sugar but, if you’re burning sugar then fat will keep storing. To end the strong desire of sugar, you’re body needs to burn fat as it’s primary form of fuel. at this point you will never think of marinara sauce and sundries tomato.
