You can ignore all the different angles and theories and focus on one thing: controlling insulin. Why is insulin so important? Because it ultimately controls how much fat you can lose.

Thus, no matter what you do, if your insulin is high you will NOT be able to lose fat.

So without further delay, here is how to get control back:

1. Avoid high GI carbohydrates. All carbohydrates are eventually broken down to sugar once digested. And sugar has the biggest impact on insulin bar none. Thus, eliminating high GI carbohydrates from your diet will be a powerful stimulus for lowering insulin.

2. Lower levels of body fat. Ironically, reducing levels of body fat is one of the most powerful ways to lower levels of circulating insulin. When you lose body fat, your insulin sensitivity goes up. This means that you need a smaller amount of insulin to get the same job done.

3. Embrace yourself for withdrawal. Yes, fast digesting carbohydrates (i.e., sugar) can cause drug-like symptoms of withdrawal. After all, drugs and sugar activate the same parts of the brain. I recommend using strong herbal teas and activities you enjoy doing as a distraction mechanism.

4. Do NOT buy into the whole grains approach. An outdated remnant of the U.S. food pyramid, whole grains are NOT optimal for losing fat in the shortest amount of time possible. And do not be swayed by the argument that they contain fiber.

5. Stay away from alcohol. Alcohol does so many harmful things in your body that I could write a whole book on the subject. In terms of weight loss, alcohol provides an obscene amount of calories while increasing levels of stomach fat. And this type of fat leads to more insulin.

Insulin is the ultimate fat loss gatekeeper. You can pretty much ignore everything else and focus on this one hormone and the weight will come off like a butter through knife. And if you follow the tips in this article, the weight loss will happen that much faster.
