Brand new study, done at the University of Nottingham, UK, once again demonstrates the indissoluble link between the two. It shows that the type of snack before the workout determines how much fat your body will burn. According to scientists glycemic index (GI) of foods has decisive importance for this - the higher it is, the less fat is melted during the movement then. They reached this conclusion after having studied several women aged 24 years.

They were in excellent health and with absolutely normal weight. First of participants in the study provides breakfast rich in carbohydrates with high GI, but after a few days - a low GI. Both were on the menu 265 calories, but in the second quantity of fibers were much higher. 3 hours after the meal they went on trail for 60 minutes. They have made a few blood samples - before breakfast, while walking and then to measure various parameters, indicating the active process of burning fat. Free fatty cells in the blood were almost 50% more after breakfast with a low GI - 7.4 grams. The quantity of oxidized fat in women with a breakfast with high GI was only 3.7 grams. Experts said the effect is due to the fact that foods such as oatmeal, muesli, yoghurt and low fat milk and some fruits such as strawberries and blueberries do not cause an abrupt increase in blood sugar. This in turn allows the body to concentrate on burning fat rather than try to stabilize the level of sugar in the blood. We fully agree that he has meaning and it is also a good way to control weight.
