A couple weeks ago I RAN. Yes! I ran all of 7 minutes! Does it sound sort of ridiculous? Of course! Everybody knows even a 5 year-old can run for 7 minutes, right?? Well, now try doing it without proper fuel for your muscles. That's right, two years ago I was unable to run even for 60 seconds. I had no energy in my muscles. Today, even though I have not exercised for the past many, many months, I can get in a pair of shorts and run for 7 minutes straight, just out of the blues.
The reason I can now do it, is that my body is now powered by FAT. I changed my way of eating so that my body can use FAT as fuel, instead of glucose like everybody else. Like everybody else -that is- if you are one of those lucky individuals (now a rarity) not currently riddled by one of these: Carbohydrate Intolerance, Insulin Resistance, Hyperinsulinemia, Syndrome X, Type 2 Diabetes.
Next time, I'll begin to share my experience on how I became FATPOWERED. Perhaps it will be useful to you, or to a loved one, as well...
Take Care!
