Foods can be classified in to two main categories as for as weight loss is concerned. The first one is called high concentration foods and the second one is low concentration food. Grains, dairy products, meat, most of the junk foods are the best examples for highly concentrated in calories. And whereas vegetables and fruits are high in water content but low in calories. You need not eat less and you may eat more with these low calorie fruits and vegetables. Blood sugar level is increased swiftly by taking certain types of food and the level of the blood sugar is increased slowly by taking some types of foods. A spike in the blood sugar level produces body fat.

There is a misconception that complex sugar contained in bread, potatoes and pasta are entering the blood stream slowly and the simple sugar in the fruits enters the blood stream quickly. But it is the fact that the sugar in fruits only reaches the blood stream slowly and the sugar in bread, potatoes and beans enter the blood stream very fastly. Insulin is needed in small quantity only for the fructose that commonly present in fruits that enters the blood stream in a gentle way. Complex carbohydrates that contained in bread melt in the mouth itself into simple sugar because of the action of the alpha-amylase that is present in the saliva.

Taking in a small piece of bread will transform up to 50% of its starch into simple sugar before it reaches the stomach. Fruit is the better source of fuel than the bread and beans that is capable of sustaining energy without exerting much pressure on pancreas for more insulin. Fructose of fruits does not need insulin to break down and it is slowly absorbed in the lower intestinal walls. Generally, all starches are made up of a chain of sugar molecules. By digestion, these chains are broken down to simple sugars. All foods like fruits, bread and beans are finally broken down to glucose. Out of these foods, fruits are the only thing that requires minimum digestion to supply glucose fuel which our body needs.
