[QUOTE="DirtyMike, post: 26239, member: 229"] Think of a brick shed and a brick mansion. Completely different structures serving completely different purposes. Break them down and you find that the bricks are the same size, color, and density. The building blocks of OJ and bread will be your carbohydrates. Simple carbs are broken down rather easily and exit the body faster. Blood glucose spikes and insulin (from your pancreas) breaks them down to be used for fuel. This is the blood glucose spike and insulin response. The body gets used to that because we ingest so many carbs. It now thinks that it's our primary fuel. So, when you take in an excess amount of carbs (complex) the body doesn't expend energy to break them down because they can use the simple carbs so much easier. The body then stores the complex carbs as fat (adipose). Once you eliminate or reduce the amount of carbs going in the body, the body then starts to utilize the adipose tissue for it's fuel source, which is known as ketosis. [/QUOTE]
