Does the human body run better on fat or sugar?
This question is probably too simple since there are many factors involved in how the body processes fuel.
For instance, personal preference, individual health goals and activity levels may play a role.
However, for the purposes of this blog, I just want to outline some basic principles and talk about fat burning vs. sugar burning.
When the body burns sugar (glucose), it gets its fuel source from carbohydrates.
Carbohydrate sources are foods like refined sugar, fruits, bread, pasta, cereals, grains, starchy vegetables and a myriad of processed foods.
