Many weight loss programs are based on calorie counting, but hereThere is at least one nuance.
Thus, a nutritionist reported that alcohol leads tofaster weight gain. She cited beer as an example - it has the same number of kilocalories as in tomato juice, but "the effect of drinking these drinks will be completely different."
According to the nutritionist, it's all about how the liverreacts to ethanol, because for her it is a toxin - drinking alcohol, among other things, raises the level of glucose in the blood, which leads to greater deposition of fat.
During the neutralization of this substance, allother processes in the body slow down. The liver must process and remove it from the body before ethanol damages the human brain. Therefore, ethanol slows down the rate of food processing.
