| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody, my name is Dr. Ray Heinisch and I'd like to welcome you to the Cut The Fat Podcast. |
| 0:05.0 | In this podcast, we're going to continue the discussion from the last podcast entitled |
| 0:10.0 | Everything You Need to Know About Carbs and Proteins. |
| 0:13.0 | Hi, my name is Blythalberg and I would like to welcome you to the Cut The Fat Podcast. |
| 0:19.0 | Visit us at www.cutthefatpodcast.com. |
| 0:23.0 | If you're new to us, we suggest that you listen to the first three to five podcasts for the basic toolbox on fat loss. |
| 0:30.0 | And so let's talk a bit about insulin release because that's a big factor. |
| 0:57.0 | This is why eating carbohydrates is such a problem for the body. |
| 1:02.0 | Insulin is the hormone that was designed by nature to prevent us from starving to death. |
| 1:08.0 | Now everybody knows insulin causes sugar to be brought into the cell and that's why diabetics need insulin to survive. |
| 1:15.0 | What most people don't realize is that insulin also has many other roles. |

| 1:53.0 | And it actually shovels more fat into the fat cell. |
| 1:56.0 | Even if you're totally exercising running on the treadmill, it's six miles an hour and you ate a piece of cake before you went and did it. |
| 2:04.0 | Are you going to burn off the calories from the cake or are you going to burn off fat while you're doing that? |
| 2:09.0 | Right, you're going to burn some fat, obviously, it doesn't block it entirely. |
| 2:13.0 | But the more carbs you have, the more insulin you have running through your system while you're exercising or moving, the less fat is going to be. |
| 2:23.0 | So this is why a lot of people, when they first get started working out, they get on the treadmill and they're in a few minutes, they're just completely wiped out. |
