Next, you should cut down on simple sugars. Chocolade,cookies, candy and table sugar are obvious, but raw sugar, brown sugar, refined honey, corn syrup, fruit juice concentrate and date sugar are bad as well. Look out for fruit juices, orange juice contains more sugar than Coca Cola. What's the reason that sugar increase bodyfat? Because quick absorption into your bloodstream causes an excess insulin burst from the pancreas. When it reaches the liver, excess insulin, which is toxic, is converted to neutral triglycerides. Triglycerides are exactly the form of fats that are stored in all your adipose cells.

Sugar not only causes excess calories that turn to fat, but it also causes the body to make even more fat from its own insulin. Replace as much as the simple sugars in your diet by complex carbohydrates, like whole grain and vegetables.

Step 6.Cut down on sugar, eat complex carbohydrates instead.

If you think you can lose weight by skipping a meal, forget it. It wouldn't work because this results in insulin bursts as soon as you eat again. The excess insulin that will be turned into fat will compensate for the skipped meal. If you want to lose fat, you have to fast for a longer period, at least 24hours. It's important to keep your insulin output level steady for the whole day. For optimum fatloss, reduce the size of your meals and eat five small meals per day.

Step 7.Don't skip meals, eat five small meals per day.

Almost all popular diets are deficient in essential nutrients. Don't fall in the trap of eating only grapefruit, bananes and milk or only salad. By doing so you become nutrient deficient, it increases your appetite and makes you fatter. Instead, eat a large variety of foods.

The US National Academy of Sciences believed that chromium was great for car bumpers, but useless for human nutrition, till Dr. Walter Mertz of the Human Nutrition Research Centre in Beltsville., MD. showed that chromium is essential for your body to use insulin. Now the latest RDA handbook recommands 50 - 200 mcg of chromium every day to maintain insulin metabolism.

Because of the large number of diabetes, folk are well aware that insulin enables the body to deal with sugar.What they usually don't know is that insulin also controls fat and muscle. However, unfortunately nobody gets even the minimum recommended level of chromium in their degraded food. Studies show that 90% of the self selected diets contain less than 50 mcg of chromium per day. The average chromium intake is only 29 mcg. As a result, this poor nutrition causes your insulin metabolism to barely limping along and your bodyfat piles up.

Dr Gary Evans developed a new form of chromium: chromium picolinate. More than 20 studies show that it improves insulin metabolism, reduces bodyfat and increases muscle mass. Pigs, who have simular insulin metabolism to men, when fed chromium picolinate, increased their lean mass by 7% and reduced their bodyfat by 21% . That's a much healthier animal.

Your daily multi-mineral supplement should contain 200 mcg of chromium picolinate. For fatloss you should use an additional 200 - 600 mcg of CP per day, in conjunction with an exercise program. Don't use any other form of chromium. Hexavalent chromium or chromate, for example, is highly toxic.

Step 10.Use a chromium picolinate supplement every day.
