Glycemic load

receive carbs for energy, but now causes them to break down in place of the “missing” sugar, which has been in your fat cells this whole time. How do we stop this from going too far and prevent further fat gains? Eating fewer calories is not the answer. Eating less sugar is. Calories do have some effect to your weight gains because eating too much obviously causes fat to become present. However, the main villain in this situation is excessive amounts of sugar. Eating foods that are higher in protein and contain lower amounts of carbs is the best way to start burning fat while not having to starve yourself with a severe calorie deficiency. This type of dieting is known as the low glycemic load diet, which basically means you don’t eat large amounts of sugar. There are hundreds of charts that focus on the glycemic index, but you don’t need anything fancy like that.

Think of someone in…

I will now look at drop shipping which has been developed as a result of disintermediation. It is defined by (Shopify 2016) as “Drop shipping is a retail fulfillment method where a store doesn 't keep the products it sells in stock. Instead, when a store sells a product, it purchases the item from a third party and has it shipped directly to the customer. As a result, the merchant never sees or handles the product”. With the advancements in technology drop shipping has become a very valuable…

Discussion Group 1 who ingested 300ml water and 50g of glucose refer to figure 2 showed an increase in blood sugar levels that stayed above baseline for 80minutes. The results didn’t show what was expected as since it was a foodstuff that only contained carbohydrate.

This book tells the story of Damon Courtenay as he tries to overcome the adversities caused by haemophilia and Aids. After I finished this book, I was disappointed by the treatment people with HIV and Aids received, particularly by the men and women in the medical profession. I don't want to sound hypocritical and judge these people because personally, I don't know how I will react to such situation, particularly in the 1980’s where the knowledge of this disease was very low. I also believe…
