Obesity or
overweight is a condition in which excess fat gets
accumulated in the body. When you take more calories
from food than
needed, those extra calories are deposited in the body as fat.
Carbohydrate and fats are the major sources of energy for the body. Body requires energy to perform the functions such as breathing, physical activity, and
absorption. Carbohydrate is the main nutrient in our diet. However, consumption of carbohydrate rich diet increases calorie supply to our body that can lead to obesity. Obesity increases the risk of several health problems like high blood pressure, diabetes, heart diseases, stroke, gallstones, sleep apnea and colon cancer. So, you should always maintain your weight within normal limits.After absorption, this carbohydrate is utilized for energy, which is either burned off through exercise or stored as fat. The deposition of extra fat in body leads to obesity and other health problems associated with obesity. So, in case of inactivity or in overweight person, by reducing the absorption of carbohydrate with carb blocker, the extra supply of energy and extra deposition fat can be avoided.Carbohydrate blocker or carb blocker can reduce the supply of excess calories from carbohydrate, which is required in the management of obesity.
