Figuring the right nutritional approach for losing arm flab can be like finding a needle in a haystack because with all the marketing campaigns out there the truth has been hidden amongst all the falsehoods.
Are you having a hard time picking the right diet?
If so, you’re not alone. I suspect that most women are utterly lost when it comes to solid nutrition for arm flab loss. I know I was.
So here are 4 reasons why you shouldn’t go on a high carb diet for arm flab loss:
1. Sugar overdose. Being around lots of carbs means being around lots of sugar in one form or another. And if you have a sugar addiction you should definitely stay away from high carb eating. After all, once you start having sugar it will be very hard to stop.
2. Can increase insulin resistance. The research has shown time and again that those with insulin resistance do far better with lower carb diets. So if you’re insulin resistant, high carb dieting is not for you.
3. Oscillating levels of hunger. If you eat a large amount of carbs you run the risk of taking your blood sugar for a roller coaster ride because carbohydrates have the biggest impact on blood sugar levels. The best way to counteract this is with an enormous vegetable intake.
4. Extremely slow fat loss. Expect very very slow fat loss when doing a high carb diet. If you’re looking for lightening quick results, then this type of diet is NOT for you.
Now high carb diets can work for some women. Those with fast metabolisms and no insulin resistance. How can you tell if you’re insulin resistant? Look at your stomach. If it’s disproportionately large compared to your other body parts, then you may be insulin resistant. Insulin resistance increase visceral fat, the fat that is around the organs in your stomach.
