The first concept is a three day eating plan which rotates the amount of carbohydrates that a person would receive each day. On day one and two the person receives 80 percent of the carbohydrates that their body requires. This encourages the body to use stored body fat to form the Adenosine Triphosphate or (A.T.P.) which generates the energy for muscle contractions. On day three the carbohydrates are increased back to normal levels. This replenishes the glycogen storage in the muscle and the additional calories consumed in the form of carbohydrates boost the metabolic rate. The three day cycle prevents the loss of lean muscle tissue and allows the body to use stored body fat, without lowering its metabolic rate.

The three day cycle changes the body chemistry of most overweight individuals from being sugar burners and fat storers into sugar storers and fat burners. Most people with high percentages of body fat have allowed their bodies to self adjust and activate glucose (sugar) burning enzymes and suppress the fat burning enzymes. This occurs as a result of too much carbohydrates or wrong type (high glycemic), which creates erratic blood sugar levels. When blood sugar levels vary from high to low the body self adjusts to burning enzymes when blood sugars are low. The end result is a fatter body that has been conditioned to burn sugar and store fat.

By limiting the amount of carbohydrates on day one and two the body self adjusts by releasing an enzyme called glycogen synthase, which allows for greater glucose storing ability on day three, when added sugars are available. By not only controlling the amount of sugar, but also slowing the time it converts to blood sugar (low glycemic), the body self adjusts and activates more fat burning enzymes. The end result is a leaner body that has been conditioned to store sugar and burn fat.
