Tip of the Week
The Fat Burning Index is calculated by the formula taking into account the ratio carb:fat:protein. For different purposes, the Fat Burning Index can be different. Generally, the meaning of it is the following.
Every macro-nutrient: fat, carbohydrate, or protein interact differently with two major hormones regulating fat burning and fat storing - insulin and glucagon. Carbohydrate is totally 'fat storing' nutrient and most potent insulin releaser. Fat is about 90% anti-insulin and pro-glucagon nutrient, and protein is roughly 50/50.
To initiate fat burning, Fat Burning Index of food or meal should at least exceed 1.5, better 2.
