1. Limit Carbohydrate intake
Sugars - if they at 80 units, in terms of raising your insulin level
Grains - are at 100, in terms of raising your insulin level (so, grains are the most dangerous)
Corn - 104
Rice - 101
Wheat - 100
(a bread sandwich is like 12 spoons of sugar)
Starches
Potato - 75
Legumes - are at 702. Fats are at '0' in terms of raising insulin level
Fats don't raise your insulin level at all.
3. Proteins
Proteins are required for fixing normal wear and tear of the body.
Should be taken in limit
May be 20 grams per meal.
If you take more, then it will get stored in liver. And ultimately get converted into sugar.
4. Fruits
There is lot of difference in the fruits that our hunter-gatherers ate and what we eat today.
Hunter gather's apple was bitter, today's apple has very high sugar.
5. For 2.5 million years, man mostly ate meat, eggs, vegetables. So, for 99% of the time man did not eat grains/carbohydrates. It is only in the last 5,000 years man started eating grains/carbohydrates.
Grains and carbohydrates have no nutrition value. They don't provide essential fatty acids or proteins.
