This is whyrepparttar low carb diets work, with little to zero carbohydrates and subsequently glucose to work on,repparttar 131484 fat will be used for energy. This is exactly whyrepparttar 131485 high carb diet works too. When no or little fat is present, it won't be stored as fat.

In addition to this, it is important to realize that it costsrepparttar 131486 body quite a bit of energy to take carbs and store them as fat. This alone is actually a positive. There really needs to be some form of fat present to make it easier.
