Apples and Exercise Promote Body Fat Loss After Weight Loss Surgery

We've all heard marathoners chowing down on pasta heavy meals the night before a 26 mile race in what is commonly known as "carbohydrate loading". It is an effort to provide the body with low carbohydrate consumption to be a ready source of fuel came time to race the next morning. But for the average person to participate in moderate physical activity for weight loss or weight control as carbohydrate loading is detrimental to our efforts. In fact, there are very few times when you'll need energy to physically perform the orders of a carbohydrate loading meal.

Weight loss surgery patients (WLS) who follow their guidelines bariatric know they must exercise daily to lose weight and maintain that weight loss. As they lose strength and intensity of physical activity weight will naturally increase. Often amateurs traditional physical activity will encourage patients to eat WLS bars in dense high-energy carbohydrates before exercise. They may refuse caloric benefits of exercise for the patient and lead to discouragement when weight loss stalls or weight gain occurs.

For many WLS patients a better solution is to eat a nutrient apple about 30 minutes before exercise. Apples are low glycemic index *, which means eating a bar instead of a high glycemic index energy the amount of insulin needed to digest will be reduced. This makes it easier for the body to burn fat as low-glycemic snack is followed by the exercise will continue to burn body fat for the next few hours the body. Our goal to lose weight is to lose body fat, not muscle, so that the combination of a low glycemic snack with exercise is beneficial for achieving this objective.



Apples are round and are affordable. They are exceptionally rich in antioxidants, which can help offset the damage caused by free radicals, an unfortunate byproduct of daily exercise. They are also rich in vitamin C and potassium. One medium apple provides about 81 calories and nearly 4 grams of fiber. Some of the fiber in apples is pectin, which can help lower blood cholesterol. Prior to the exercise trying to cut an apple pie slices and spread with peanut butter or almond (2 teaspoons). This will add a perfect balance of protein and fat to its low glycemic index pre-workout snack health.

In the market looking for apples that are hard and free of bruises. Most of our best supermarkets now offer less frequent blocks with the known varieties of Golden Delicious and Red Delicious. Try Empire, Fuji, Jonagold or Crispin apples. But do not forget the old favorites like juicy tart Granny Smith.

* The low-glycemic foods have less effect on the glucose level in the blood that foods with a high glycemic index. High GI foods tend to cause spikes in glucose levels in the blood, while low GI foods tend to cause slight increases. Different carbohydrate foods can behave very differently in the body. Some break down quickly during digestion and release glucose rapidly into the bloodstream; others will gradually decompose and slowly pour the blood glucose.
