New Study Confirms That Carbs Make You Fat

[El OchoCinco]

Wait...your example is farmers who do manual labor all day and eat a cup of rice?

An example is not a proof. I know a fat asian... all asians are fat... see how that works?

Carbs, simple or complex that are not used are converted and stored as fat.

Not true. Have u heard of glycogen?

Anything you eat in excess be it carb protein fat can be stored as fat. Basic biochemistry.

I eat unlimited whole foods every meal

No dude. U do not eat unlimited lol. U eat as much as fills u up. Which probably isn't much.

Blood glycogen has to be used quickly, the simpler the carb, the quicker the conversion. Distance trainers know that after awhile, glycogen is mostly used up and the body begins to use stored fat as fuel.

Actually the body uses a mix of fat and muscle and glycogen for fuel. That's why long distance runners look malnourished.

Who are the professionals who lift for hours?

I've done great on 20 grams of Carbs per day in terms of cutting weight and keeping it off.

Wow, only 20 grams! What does that diet look like? Could you describe a typical day?

Lately when I cheat and eat shit carbs...

What foods did the shit carbs comprise?

(Ever notice that the more draconian the diet, the higher the propensity to cheat?)

 

[Frederick Foresight]

If that was the case, then every farmer doing daily manual labor and living off the land out in the middle of nowhere should be skinny. But we know that's not how it plays out.

You're assuming he only eats what he grows.

Sumo wrestlers mainly eat rice to pack on the weight...

White rice or whole grain?
