New Jerseys Fat Loss Specialist Released New Guide To Treat Insulin Imbalance and Weight Gain Problems


Denville, NJ (PRWEB) January 04, 2012

Ricafranca, who has recently released a new fat loss guide titled: Fat Loss Ignition Diet Manual, says foods that cause insulin spikes should be avoided since they cause a surge of insulin followed by a rapid decline in blood sugar levels which usually leads to a crash and causes more cravings.

Ever wondered why your energy crashes after you eat certain foods like pizzas, burgers, sodas and bread? Its because these foods cause a rapid, unnatural surge in insulin levels, he explains.

Once insulin shoots up, it does what its supposed to do, drive all the sugar circulating in your blood into fat stores think of it as insulin drives sugar into your body and stores it as fat, he adds.

On the other hand, he argues, foods that reduce insulin spikes and ignite fat loss are called Fat Loss Ignition Positive foods. These foods, he claims, actually help the body to burn stored fat.

Heres a sample list of top 10 Fat Loss Ignition positive foods, which is one of many lists Ricafranca includes in program, available at http://www.fatlossignition.com: Grapefruit, Apricots, Apples, Pears, Plums, Peaches, Oranges, Grapes, and Kiwi Fruit.

Of course there are lots more to choose from. Chances are, your favorite fruits and vegetables are in the program as well as your favorite lean meats, fat and dairy products, says Ricafranca, who also offers another top 10 FLI positive list, this time focusing on vegetables, namely Artichoke, Asparagus, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Celery, Cucumber, Eggplant, Green Beans, Lettuce, and Peppers.

Inside the Fat Loss Ignition manual, the weight loss specialist says readers will uncover the unique FLI scoring system for all the foods you eat, and theyll be assigned a daily FLI score, the value that they can consume in a 24 hour period.

There is no calorie counting period, he noted.
