Fat is Exhaled!



Recommended Posts

According to a new yahoo article;

The body stores the excess Protein or carbs in a person's diet in form of fat, specifically, as triglyceride moleclues, which consist of just three kinds of atoms: carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

In order to "burn" fat these triglycerides must break up into building blocks, which happens in a process known as oxidation. And the chemical process of burning that fat will produce carbon dioxide and Water, Therefore 84 percent of the fat that is lost turns into carbon dioxide and leaves the body through the lungs the balance is water and, well you know how we eliminate water. ;)

I just found this to be interesting is all...

You can read the entire artilcle here...

Fascinating. This explains how I am going to the bathroom often and more liquid is going out then what I drink.

Also explains the two pound temporary "weight loss" after an hour of cardio when I'm sweating and huffing and puffing. Actually weigh two pounds less right after the workout than right before the workout on the same scale. FASCINATING!

They will have to come up with more information than that to convince me...I'm pretty sure I was breathing correctly in the last 40 years that I spent with 125 pounds of fat clinging to me for dear life...

so if I exhale more than I inhale... :) :) :)

It does seem kind of weird. But I'm not expert :) It's intriguing.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
