Burn slower train longer
Why ?
Slowly digestible carbohydrates will maintain low levels of insulin, which will help you burn more fat during exercise and to have a continuous energy. Adding a quick protein before your workout, and whey for example, will help to prevent muscle breakdown during exercise and accelerate protein synthesis immediately after the workout is over. Our view is supported by others.
Research
National University of Physical Education in Taiwan exposed eight male athletes of the load to exhaustion during 2 separate training sessions. During the first they run three hours, after having consumed a diet rich in slow carbohydrates. In the second exercise they run three hours after they ate fast carbs.
The result
As reported in the International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism, athletes were able to run almost seven and a half minutes longer after they ate slow carbs compared to workout before they ate fast carbs. The reason? Runners burn more fat for fuel during exercise when fed with slow carbohydrates.
The lesson
Selective pre workout carbs wisely. Make sure that they are slow to absorb fruit, bread, pasta, oatmeal and sweet potatoes. This will help you to maximize your energy levels throughout your workout and at the same time to enhance fat burning. Keep fast carbohydrates (such as sports drinks) for post workout.

Carbohydrates problems
What is the amount of carbohydrates in a period of increased muscle mass anddoes it matter from what sources are they?
In the period of muscle mass need to take enough, even a little more calories and carbohydrates.
At higher load your body will need more energy and burn excess carbohydrates first, without using this protein that eat to gain muscle mass.
Chris Aysen food spec says that carbohydrates are the main source of energy during the period of muscle mass. "If you do not eat enough carbs you will be able to train, but less productively and less make full," adds Chris. It is very important to know that the carbohydrate play an important role in the secretion of insulin - particularly important hormone that helps to the transfer of amino acids from food rich in protein, to the muscle, where they can be used for accumulation of additional mass. Insulin also blocked strong catabolic hormone cortisol, secreted in stressful situations.
If you suffer from a lack of carbohydrates, your body will start to burn protein for energy, proteins that otherwise would go to gain muscle mass.
Bodybuilder who wants to gain muscle mass, but has a slow metabolism, you should start with about 5 grams per kilogram of weight per day. For example, if you weigh 100 kilograms you need 500 grams of carbohydrates a day. However, this proportion is only an initial guide. If after a few weeks it does not work, you need to increase your calories by about gram per kilogram of body weight. So increase your calorie intake until the result is available. For athletes with fast metabolism will probably take about 10 grams per kilogram of body weight, and for women about 4 grams per kilogram.
Particularly important are also sources of carbohydrates that we eat. Three types of sources - intricate "unprocessed", intricate "processed" and simple. Complex unprocessed foods are generally rich in vitamins, minerals and fiber. They have alow glycemic index. This is brown rice, coarse-grained bread, red potatoes, oats.
The second type of complex carbohydrates - "processed" are foods that one way or another are refined and processed. In comparison with the "unprocessed" these have a higher glycemic index (rich in simple sugars), and less rich in vitamins and minerals. They degrade rapidly. These carbohydrates are found in white rice, white bread and even some pasta. The third type are simple carbohydrates, including sugar, fruit, soft drinks. They have a very high glycemic index and is immediately absorbed by the body.
Which of the following sources to consume?
Simple carbohydrates are the best choice for the time immediately after the workout. Studies show that they very well act on complex carbohydrates in recovering spent during exercise glycogen reserves. Chris Aysen advise of everyday meals to stick to less processed carbohydrates with a low glycemicindex.
Generally natural products that do not change and passed processing. In this sense, the brown rice is better than white. It will hardly help you build muscle, but it is rich in vitamins and minerals and generally more useful for the body.
For its part processed carbohydrates contain more fat, more sugars and less fiber.

Benefits of Papaya
What is papaya? Origin.
Papaya is a tropical tree that is found in hot, wet areas of South and Central America, South Africa and Southeast Asia.
Reaches a height of between 5 and 10 meters. The fruit contains many black seeds, which are used as a spice. It contains a high content of vitamins (A, B, C, D and E), minerals (calcium, potassium, phosphorus) and trace elements (iron, zinc, manganese, copper, vanadium, manganese). All this makes it valuable for curative purposes. Consumed as fruit mature and more immature as garnishes.
Benefits of papaya
Fruits contain very few calories (only 39 calories per 100 grams) and have no cholesterol, while rich in phyto - nutrients, minerals and vitamins.
Papaya contains soft, easy to digest a large amount of cellulose soluble fibers which help to the normal peristalsis of the intestines, thereby reducing constipation.
Fresh, ripe fruit contains a lot of vitamin C (more than oranges and lemons). Studies have indicated that vitamin C has a number of important features, including: preventing free radical damage, stimulates the immune system, and has anti-inflammatory action.
Papaya is an excellent source of vitamin A. Vitamin A helps maintain healthy skin and mucous membranes, and is essential for the eyesight. Other compounds are known for their antioxidant properties, protecting the body from free radicals and harmful emissions from oxygen, which play a negative role in aging and various disease processes. Furthermore, it is known that the consumption of natural fruit rich in carotene protects against lung cancer and oral cavity.
Fruit of the papaya is rich in essential vitamins multiply by B - group, folic acid, pyridoxine, riboflavin and thiamine. These vitamins are essential for metabolism.
Fresh papaya contains a stable amount of potassium (257 mg per 100 grams) and calcium. Potassium is an essential component of cells and helps to control heart rate and blood pressure.
Papaya is a proven natural remedy for many diseases. In conventional medicine, papaya seeds are used as anti-inflammatory, anti - parasitic agent, and analgesic, and used for treatment of abdominal pain and infection with tapeworms.
Papaya is rich in enzymes called papain and chymopapain which helps in digestion, especially the breakdown of protein foods, turning them into amino acids we need.

Strategies for faster fat burning
When it comes to planning the menu, so that it is both dietary, yet healthy, yet helps your metabolism, there are many different strategies for feeding. Some experts, nutritionists advise to include in your diet green tea, chilli and caffeine that increase metabolism. The real secret to creating a diet in which to burn more fat, however, lies in a balanced menu.Here are five tips on how to eat to boost metabolism and at the same time to feel full.
1. Bet on the proteins
The digestion of the proteins takes more time and energy to the body, leading to an increased rate of thermogenesis. This may help to promote weight loss, as the speed of said thermogenesis dictates how many calories will be used in this day of operation of the body.
Furthermore proteins help build muscle mass, which causes the body to use more calories during the whole day. In terms of food intake, it means that each of your meal should contain lean protein like white meat, turkey and fish.
2. Do not remove milk products from your diet
Dairy products are often reduced to a minimum in some diets, since most of them contain fat. Actually dairy can help promote weight loss. Although the reasons for this are not entirely clear, the researchers noted that the increased intake of calcium and vitamin D, may be associated with it. Researchers found that three servings of milk, cheese, yogurt per day lead to a better metabolism.
3. Snack oatmeal and quinoa
Study in 2008 found that obese adults who eat whole grains lose significantly more fat from study participants who took the same calories, but do not consume whole grains. In addition, these foods contain a lot of fiber, leaving the person feeling full.
4. Do not remove all the fats from your diet
If you want to go on a diet to improve your metabolism, it will probably avoid all foods that contain fat.
But it should not! Studies have found that so-called "mediterranian" diet, which contains considerable amounts of healthy monounsaturated fats such as olive oil, actually result in a greater weight loss than the mode with a low fat content. Healthy fats are necessary for the processing of nutrients and also act filling.
5. Increase your fiber intake
No matter if you get them from fruits, vegetables, legumes and whole grains - fiber are key to maintaining a healthy metabolism. Like proteins, fibers are digested more difficult, leading to a better metabolism.

Foods that prevent weakening
According to some experts in nutrition, there are several types of products that will not only contribute to weight gain, but also to prevent the process of weight lossachieved at a normal rate.
These products act on the regulatory centers responsible for proper metabolism by interfering with their activities.
1. Bread and bakery products (bread, biscuits, cakes, muffins, etc.).
In your diet one should be limited to 1.2 slices of whole grain bread or servingpasta from durum wheat.
2. All oils, including vegetable.According to this group of scientists and plant oils can adversely affect the process of losing weight if they are unbearable for this organism.
3. Cheese.
It is always better to replace it with cottage cheese.
4. Sweet drinks.
Even with sweetener instead of sugar they can still confuse the weight loss process.
5. Margarine and different mayonnaise .
These foods are high in fat, and even low calorie versions of these are not able to reduce the risk of weight gain.
6. Meat - some species.
Fatty meats are taboo. The percentage of fat in normal and lean pork is over 30 per cent - so it must be eliminated when one wants to weaken. But as the body requires protein, you should consume: fish, especially sea, lean beef and white chicken meat.
7. High-fat dairy products should be forgotten, but dairy foods are now offering low fat and this problem is almost solved.
However, do not forget that low fat does not always mean low calorie!
8. Chocolate, ice cream and confectionery, including creams.
9. Vegetables and fruits with a high content of starch - potato, banana.
10. Alcohol.
Experts say that if even one of these 10 products is completely eliminated,personal weight will start to decline.

Grapefruit - 31.2 mg
Kiwi - 92.7 mg
Strawberries - 58.8 mg
Raspberries - 26.2 mg
Rosehips - 2 g
Red Pepper - 128 mg
Broccoli - 89.2 mg
Parsley - 133 mg
Spinach - 28.1 mg
Do not store foods containing vitamin C in cold, wet or too sunny places. Eat them fresh and storing them for a long time. Exceptions are the red peppers and dried fruits somewhat managed to preserve vitamins.
Extra vitamin C is good to be taken in winter and spring, with weak immunity, anemia or monotonous menu. Smokers also need to add to your meals extra vitamin C. Not recommended higher intake of vitamin C (as a supplement) of people who have kidney stones and pregnancy.
