Orange
Juice Calories, Blood Sugar Spikes & Loads Of Abdominal Fat
Do
you drink lots of orange juice calories?
Do you have
loads of excess abdominal fat that you desperately want gone?
If
you answered yes, then this will be the most important article you will
ever read.
Here's why. I'm going to share
with you the connection between orange juice calories and your handfuls
of tummy fat. And I'm also going to reveal a simple "food
shift" that will make your weight loss a whole lot easier.
And
this "food shift" doesn't just apply to drinking orange juice... but
every other fruit juice as well.
So pay attention
here because this works like gangbusters!
Let's
begin.
When companies take a whole fruit and "juice"
it... say an orange... most of the "pulp" and other solid matter gets
removed. (This is true even if the label reads "contains
pulp".)
Why is this a problem?
This
is a problem because the solid matter contains fiber
and other
nutrients that dramatically "slow" the absorption rate of the fruit
into your bloodstream.
You see... a huge enemy of
any individual trying to lose weight is consuming food that causes
sporadic
blood sugar spikes. These spikes are responsible
for
a whole slew of problems including: Drained energy, ravenous
hunger,
food cravings and elevated body fat storage. Just to name a
few.
The bottom line is that when all
the solid matter is removed from the fruit... when you are left with
just the juice... it elevates the fruits fat producing capabilities.
This
is why drinking fruit juice is a much more potent fat producer than
eating the whole fruit.
Now, this doesn't even take
into consideration the fact that most every company adds
sugar or some
other "sweetener" that will even shoot your blood sugar higher (just
read the labels).
This is why in most cases, the
whole orange contains fewer calories (around 85 calories) than a
comparable amount of orange juice (around 112 calories).
Now
don't get me wrong. Fruit juice can have amazing health
benefits. Especially if it is organically squeezed.
But
it will never top eating the whole fruit.
First,
as we discussed, the whole fruit does not cause dramatic blood sugar
spikes like juice. This means less stored fat.
And
secondly... if you eat the whole fruit you will get a lot of
fiber. Something that is a potent appetite suppressant and
even curbs food cravings.
So if your goal is to lose
weight as fast as possible, then give up the orange juice calories and
eat the whole fruit.
Your belly will thank you.
