It sorta worked until the carbs were craved again.
Fast forward to 2020 and Intermittent Fasting. I am here to tell you it worked for me. I think it was 20-25 pounds that has stayed off for several years now. Biggest drawback is carb cravings still now and then.
Yeeh i never been so excited about Atkins diet ... Intermittent Fasting is better .
Lately been eating badly , because been extra stresfull time and it`s then allways hard to push healthy diet....now things have settled so planning to start Intermittent Fasting soon.
Seems like one key nutrient that is highly related to obesity, insulin ,energy , carb cravings is vitamin B1 aka Thiamine .
Without enough thiamin in your body to convert glucose, your cells won’t have enough energy to function properly. Your brain will likely push you to eat more sugar even though you already have enough glucose in store.
Vitamin B1 is necessary for the breakdown of carbohydrates. This process is known as carbohydrate catabolism.
So the more carbohydrates that you consume, the more your body needs vitamin B1 for the metabolism of carbs.
When you’re eating a large number of carbs, your vitamin B1 intake often can’t keep up.
Benfotiamine/Thiamine! Why is it so Important For Diabetics to Take?
Thiamine in insulin resistance
Chromium also important .
