Does prebiotic fiber and Metabolic Complete Protein really cancel out carbs and balance blood sugar levels, helping to cancel out blood sugar spikes and boost weight loss and fat burning?
YES! That's what makes it metabolic and that's what makes our popular protein powder and most of our recipes unique and different than ALL of the rest!
Here is the 411 on balancing blood sugar levels.
NOT ALL fiber is creating equal. Prebiotic fiber is a type of fiber/carbohydrate that your body can't digest, so you should subtract the grams of fiber from the total carbohydrates and sugars, which includes the addition of fruit.
On our labels and “most nutrition facts” (but not all food labels), the grams of dietary fiber are already included in the total carbohydrate count, which is why your blood sugar spikes and you gain weight drinking your typical fruit smoothie or green juice, assuming all labels include sugar in with the carbs the way they are supposed to. But sugar is often in addition to the carbs, turning it into a sugar bomb! So no, not all smoothies or protein powders are created equal.
At LynFit, we specialize in metabolic weight loss, which includes diabetes, insulin resistance, hypothyroid, and menopausal weight gain.
That's why we add prebiotic fiber to our MOST popular and most effective Complete Protein Powders (Chocolate Truffle, French Vanilla Creme, and Salted Caramel) making it easier for you to lose weight and melt off belly fat while enjoying delicious smoothies.
As long as you use our Metabolic Boosting Proteins WITH prebiotic fiber and follow the recipes as laid out for you that help prevent eating the wrong kind of sugar and avoid consuming excess sugar consumption that many people trying to lose weight wind up eating by accident thinking fruit is healthy which is it however IF you have weight to lose or Belly fat its a sign your blood sugar levels are out of balance .
Here are the approximate calories, sugar, carb, and fiber numbers.
- Less than/approx 220 calories (not bad for a delicious dessert)
- A net sugar/carbs of LESS than 5 ( that's less than a teaspoon of sugar when you use our best-selling Protein Powder).
- Bad fats: less than 1 gram
The lowering of sugar in this recipe is due to the Prebiotic Fiber that buffers the blood sugar spikes that STOP Weight loss and BLOCK fat burning.
How does it do that?
When prebiotic fiber is combined with Metabolic Complete Protein that's slow digesting, it essentially blocks blood sugar spikes and “eats” the sugars, neutralizing them (in short speech), so they won't trigger hunger and cravings or kick you out of keto. Or worse, cause weight gain!
Next time you're craving something delicious, make it metabolic, so you can enjoy the tastes and flavors you love without the weight gain, making it easier to lose weight even when you're not eating so healthy, or indulging on holidays. That's why we say “indulge without the bulge”!
If you're going to be drinking alcohol or over-indulging and want/need more carb-blocking, don't forget to take (1) one Cutting Edge and (1) one Keto Carb Edge Accelerator beforehand to protect your health and prevent weight gain. And make sure you don't skip the “day after” which is even more important.
Have a Happier, Healthier Memorial Day (And more metabolic one too!)
Lisa and family
