“I believe I’ve been wrong/confused/stoopid on some of the mechanisms and I am going to revamp/revise my thinking on the issue“ skriver Fred Hahn på Facebook…
Hans förklaring till varför det funkar fin-fint att bryta LCHF-viktplatåer med en kostregim med 95 procent stärkelse (under fem dagar) är “intressant” – inte Ockhams rakkniv direkt… men jag har lovat mig själv att ge den en ärlig intellektuell chans innan jag avfärdar den…
Så här långt är det inga konstigheter, Hahn:
“What this means is, the PRIMARY reason why you lose fat on a LC/HF diet is a lowered calorie intake. You lose fat because your body mobilizes stored fat to make up for the shortfall in energy requirements. It’s not just because your insulin levels drop thus allowing fat to be used for fuel, but also because you’re not taking in enough total fuel”
Men sedan kommenterar ha(h)n:
“If one is on a LCD and fat loss is stalled, an all potato diet of equal calories will allow fat loss due to fat stores being mobilized to promote insulin production to lower BG” (Min fetstilning)
Och i en senare kommentar:
“You could say that the more cals in potatoes you eat, the more fat needs to be mobilized for insulin production. On a HF diet, if you eat a lot of fat, there is no need to mobilize fat out of the fat cells.
I am convinced that if I ate more potatoes, I’d have lost more fat”
