If Fibrous Carbs are so effective for fat loss, why shouldn’t they be the carb of choice?

Fibrous carbs (vegetables) are extremely beneficial for 4 reasons: a.) they are low in calories, b.) they are high in fiber, c.) they have almost no adverse affects on insulin, and d.) they are loaded with vitamins and minerals and other nutrients that fight off illness and disease. So then why shouldn’t we load up on them early in the day too?

They don’t offer enough energy. I tried and tested this myself, in fact. I ate veggies and protein at each meal. And it was extremely effective…until about the second or third day. I found I couldn’t workout, I didn’t feel good, I was crabby and dizzy…In fact, I couldn’t even function and, as I’m sure you’d agree, that’s no way to live. What’s the point in being lean if you feel terrible?

And we want you to feel great. So we encourage you to load your system up with natural starchy carbs, and/or some fruit, early in the day and then later transition to fibrous carbs. This way you’re giving your body the energy it needs for the entire day early on, and then you’re switching to fibrous carbs as you become less active and move towards night-time when you sleep.

You’ll also find that you have less sugar cravings at night when you eat the right types of carbs at the right times of the day, so there are many reasons this is so important.

Key Points to remember:

Fibrous carbs are extremely effective for fat loss, but that doesn’t mean they should be your primary carb source at every meal.

Load your system up with natural starchy carbs, and/or some fruit, early in the day and then later transition to fibrous carbs.
