If your levels of insulin are elevated (from an excess of carbohydrates) your body emits signals to store additional fat cells (or increase the size of your current fat cells). If you reduce the levels of insulin circulating throughout your body (through a controlled carb approach) your body can mobilize and utilize those stored fat cells while it no longer tries to store additional fat cells. The scientific kilo-calorie is a flawed unit of measurement for the energy we absorb from our food once it enters our body. It neglects to factor in the hormonal control element because food is incinerated in its entirity in a calorimiter, whereas it is digested in our body.
