When trying to lose a few pounds of weight loss , many people who use the fruit to eliminate the cravings to eat sweet . Fruit contains lots of fiber , vitamins , and minerals so eat lots of fruit may sound healthy .
Fruits have important health benefits for day-to- day diet . But is it too much it will damage the fruit eating weight loss diet ?
Jacqueline Silvestri Banks , holistic health counselor from Oregon USA says , fruits contain simple sugars fructose and carbohydrate types , two things that need to be consumed with moderation by dieters . Eating too much fruit can cause elevated levels of insulin . Yet when insulin levels rise , the body will have difficulty in burning fat .
Fructose is processed in the liver ( liver ) and if not immediately used , these substances are stored in the body as fat and can be used again as the energy at any time . Fat storage as this will certainly be a problem for dieters .
Banks said that , the amount of fructose is eaten is also needs to be a concern for people with diabetes . This is because their body's ability to digest the sugar has dropped . In other words , the mechanism of sugar as an energy utilization or storage of unused sugar to fat people with diabetes are not as good as in healthy people .
According to the Health Research Ministry of Health in 2007 , only 6.4 percent of Indonesian people eat enough vegetables and fruit . Because the average consumption of fruit is still low , it may be very rare cases of obesity because eating too much fruit .
Unfortunately , according to Banks , is not only a source of fructose fruit . Natural sweetener such as honey or agave also contain fructose . Not to mention processed foods eg cereals , beverage packaging , to bread and yogurt also contain high fructose corn syrup .
" So make sure you always check food labels to avoid " said Banks .
Banks said that , if you are concerned with the body's metabolism as well as aiming to reduce weight , the consumption of fruit every day to Limit two servings per day . As well , select fruit with low fructose content with high fiber like green apples .
