Combining Fats and Carbs

Could someone please explain to me the reason why you dont mix the two in a meal. Also, would that include healthy fats. Fr example would it be ok to eat baked salmon w/white rice? Almonds with oatmeal? Olive oil pesto with wheat noodles? thanks is advance to all who reply.

You dont mix the two because carbs spike insulin levels. If you take fat in at the same time as carbs the elevated insulin in your body will start to deposit the fat on your body instead of burning it for fuel. When you eat a meal with fats; those are healthy fats that we are talking about. So i wouldnt mix salmon with rice. In fact if you are going to eat rice i would eat brown rice and not the white.

Studies have shown that a combination of fat and carbs actually have a synergistic effect on insullin secretion.

synergy: The interaction of two or more agents or forces so that their combined effect is greater than the sum of their individual effects.

Thats not a good thing in this case correct. Since the increased insulin would deposit more of that fat?

Are we talking here about ZERO fat with carbs ?

I mean if you have a meal lets say

Protein 80g
Carbs 75g

Fat 5g

Is this also bad ?

It's nearly impossible to have a meal with absolutely no fat and then also carbs. You will always have some fat. What the above is talking about is taking essential fatty acids at the same time as having a carb meal (like oatmeal, etc.). Basically, don't mix your serving of flax seed oil with your potatoes.

What beef are you using that has 44 grams of pro and only 6 grams of fat?
H*ll, use 4% ground beef and that still has 9-10 grams of fat per 45-50 protein. Doesn't get leaner than that.

Ketchup is sugar.

So if you ever eat salmon, you should just eat it by itself either before bed or pre- workout?

Ostrich steak is a super lean meat, but I doubt that was what he was referring to. My grocer used to carry it but now they don't so I've got to buy it online. Great stuff if you can get your hands on it plus it cooks quick.
