    was reading a book called "health revolution for men" by charles and maureen clark

    they argue that insulin turns carbs into fat.
    protiens like meat have few carbs
    some plant foods have more carbs than others
    eg a banana is higher than an apple
    the number of carbs is called the GI index
    High carb ( or high GI) foods include rice, pasta, potato and low carb ( or low GI) foods include lentils, peanuts, oranges

    the more carbs you eat eg sugar, rice, alcohol etc the more insulin you produce the fatter you get.

    the more protiens and low carb foods you eat the lower your insulin levels and less weight you will put on

    Seems to make sense to me

    what do you think?
