Weight Loss Tips: When to Eat Carbs

There is a method to the madness when it comes to weight reduction. When you consume carbohydrates, your blood glucose levels will change significantly. There is a better way to accomplish this in order to reduce these spikes and assist in regulating your insulin secretion. 

#1 Fiber 

Therefore, the first rule of meal planning is to consume fibre first. Fiber will reduce these glucose surges, so eating high-fiber foods like vegetables is what you want to do first. 

#2 Fat & Protein

Number two is your fat and protein, which will once more help to maintain stable blood sugar levels and aid in weight loss. 

#3 Carbs

The third macronutrient is carbohydrates, so you should save your carbs for after you've had your other macronutrients. This is something we frequently get wrong, so what do they bring you first when you go to a nice meal at a restaurant? They bring you that dreaded bread basket, which is completely the wrong way to do this because it will cause a blood sugar spike.
 

When we look at the research, we can see that diabetics who are taking metformin to stabilise blood glucose levels were tested. What they did in the study was consume their carbohydrates—in this case, ciabatta bread and a glass of orange juice—during the first week, which immediately spiked their blood sugar levels. Next, they consumed their proteins, which included skinless grilled chicken breast, and finally, their fats.
