Fat Burning Foods

1)High fat diet, limiting simple carbs(sugar) and eating a moderate amount of complex carbs(starch and fiber)= better weight loss cuz it doesnt spike your insulin levels up, like simple carbs do, and thats promotes weight loss more efficiently and your body produces more pesterone(or however you spell it) from the fat which is very important for your body

2)what are pesterones?

3)And i know all about good and bad fats so i dont need any info. about that but does your body react to good fats, the same as bad fats? even though the good fats give you more health benefits, your body burns threw it the same right?

4)High carb(simple, not complex) and lower fat diet= high spike in insulin levels(from sugar carbs) which stores more fat and makes it harder for weight loss and your body doesnt produce as much pesterone which is bad

5)COMPLEX CARBS(fiber, starch): fresh veggies, fruits, peanuts, honey, anything naturally grown with the ingredients only saying "Honey" Or "Peanuts" if its in a package such as those 2 i just listed. Your body takes a while to break these things down, which makes you fuller faster and longer. Most likely will have more nutritional value.
SIMPLE CARBS(sugar): anything with refined sugars such as cereal, pastries, etc., anything not natural. Your body breaks them down easily, which makes you not very full and makes you crave more and more. Most likely to have no nutritional value.

6)GOOD FATS(monounsaturated/monosaturated)- chicken, pork chops, steak, peanuts, cheese, good oils that i think are vegetable and canola oils, milk, etc. but i look on the nutritonal labels anyways so i will find out whenever i use the food
BAD FATS(trans, saturated, unsaturated)- bad oils, pasteries, cake, sweets, etc. MOST of the time.

So basically what i got from this was that you need to eat high fat diets(mostly good fats) with a limited amount of simple carbs(sugar) and a moderate amount of complex carbs(fiber, starch).

1-2.) no clue what a pesterone could be (source?) I searched the web without luck. Could that be hormones? Your body doesn’t produce hormones from fat but hormones need fat to function correctly. Fat is required to make the vitamins & minerals in foods bioavailable so that they can be incorporated into the body structure.

3) I don’t think you understand about good & bad fats due to question 6 & it’s a complex subject, which few really understand. Bad fats are transfats. Transfats are man made chemically altered oil (hydrogenated oils) which may have started off as a good fat, til it was processed.

4) yes - high simple carb diet is bad with or without fats

5) honey is not a complex carb, it is a simple carb but raw honey is a more natural product

Simple carbs - It gets real confusing because there is the clinical definition of simple carbs as having 1-2 sugars & complex carbs having 3 or more but using that definition could make vegetables a simple carb.

Simple carbohydrates are broken down quickly by the body to be used as energy
In the context of a low carb diet, we avoid carbohydrates which raise blood glucose levels rapidly. In that context, a raw potato would be a complex carb but you bake it and you change the molecular structure to a starch which is broken down quickly by the body.

Using that context, I consider these items as simple carbs - sugar, white flour, white bread, cereal, pasta, potatoes, white rice.

6) Most foods have a combination of fats & your listing of foods with good fats are a combination
I don’t think there is such thing as monosaturated only monounsaturated found in nuts, olives, avocados
There is a controversy about canola oil - I wouldn’t highly recommend it, it’s fatty acids look good but won’t get into that here.
Saturated fats are not bad - there once was a myth (probably created by the transfat sellers) but that has been all but dismissed by current research - Half the fat in Breast milk is saturated - nature can’t be wrong. Coconut oil has the same health properties as breast milk and it’s mostly saturated fats.

Many foods are not "bad" but the processing changes the food. It is best to stick with whole foods that have minimal changes. Unrefined salt is essential for good health, refined salt is nearly toxic. Meats & eggs & dairy from animals that eat grass & can free range are far healthier than animals fed carbs. The carbs aren’t healthy for them either and it dramatically changes the fat composition. Many grains are perfectly healthy but food processors extract the starch which doesn’t include the vitamins & minerals in the end product. They "enrich" their products by adding synthetic vitamins because their product has little nutritional value.

I greatly admire your desire to understand how nutrition impacts your health. I wish I had BEFORE I lost my health.
