When You Burn Fat, Where Does It Go?
We talkdieting and burning off fatWe talk a lot about dieting and burning off fat, but we actually have a lot of misconceptions about weight loss. Some people think fat is converted into energy or heat while others think that the fat is somehow excreted or even converted to muscle. Where does it go exactly?
‘’So where does all this fat go when you sweat it out at the gym or spend long hours jogging on the road?
‘’Interesting question isn’t it? I’m sure we’ve all wondered where the fat goes after disappearing from our body.
‘’Surprising the way that a pair of jeans which earlier didn’t even come close to accommodating you now has a huge gap between your belly and the buckle?
‘’Where did all that fat go? This magic is yet another simple yet amazing wonder of the human body, which continues to amaze us every day of our lives.
‘’What actually happens when you ‘burn’ your fat after a nice cardio session or gym workout is that your body is actually using these fat cells for energy, but not burning them or converting them to energy directly.
‘’The fat is leaving your body in the form of carbon dioxide, so you basically exhale your fat (according to Andrew Brown from the University of New South Wales).
‘’Browns calculations, along with those of Ruben Meerman, a physicist were even published in the British Medical Journal.
‘’Their study shows that most of the mass lost goes into thin air! To metabolize the excess carbs and proteins stored in the fat cells, you need to unlock the carbon from these cells and that’s how weight is lost.
‘’Sounds crazy but believable! Their mantra is simple. If you want to reduce 10 kgs of fat, you need to inhale 29 kgs of Oxygen, 11 liters of water and exhale 28 kgs of Carbon Dioxide! That is some heavy duty formula.
‘’So the lungs become the primary organs for weight loss now, with them being responsible for 84% of the fat loss that takes place according to the duo’s calculations.
‘’The rest 16% is taken care of by the excretory system which lets it out in the form of sweat, urine, feces etc.
‘’However, please don’t think that the key to fat loss is exhaling more.
‘’If it were that simple we wouldn’t be the third ‘Largest’ nation in the world, pun intended! Exhaling and Inhaling more than normal will lead to hyperventilation and you don’t want to be doing that.
‘’Dizziness and palpitations are other possible outcomes of this supposed shortcut that won't get you anywhere near your goal.
‘’So remember guys, there are no shortcuts to success. So work hard, maintain your diet and stay tuned. We may have something coming up which might be just what you’re looking for!
