Smart Learning for All
Where does the fat go when you lose weight?
Santa Claus takes it away.
No.
Our food contains nutrients like carbohydrates, fats and proteins.
When we eat food, these nutrients give us energy and help us to grow.
However, when we eat excess amount of these nutrients.
Our body stores them as triglycerides in fat or adipose cells for later use.
This ultimately results in weight gain.
Now, according to a prevailing research, when we try to lose weight.
We actually breakdown these triglycerides in the presence of oxygen.
Converting them into carbon dioxide, water and energy.
What?
My fat turns into carbon dioxide, water and energy?
Yes.
We exhale the carbon dioxide gas.
Water is given out in the form of urine, sweat or tears.
Whereas, we use the energy to perform various activities.
