How is
Carbohydrate
Converted to
Sugar?

Carbo & Starch Digestion
Body weight is related to how much energy one consumes and
expends. Carbohydrate is the main source of blood glucose, which
is a major fuel for all of the body's cells and the only source of energy
for the brain and red blood cells. If a person consumes more energy-
giving foods than he/she needs, then the excess energy is stored as
fat.

TOP
1. 2 forms of carbohydrates that we consume
Simple carbohydrates (sucrose, glucose and fructose
sourced from table sugar, corn syrup or fruit sugar)
Complex carbohydrates (mainly "carbo" foods such as
rice, bread, potato, spaghetti and noodle)
2.
3. Inside the mouth, starch is broken down into maltose. At
this stage, only 5% of all starch is broken down.
4. Inside the lining of the small intestines, an enzyme called
amylase breaks maltose into glucose molecules that can
be absorbed into the blood. Glucose is carried through the
bloodstream to the liver where it is stored or used to
provide energy to perform bodily functions.
5. The smaller units of starch (broken down by alpha-
amylase) passes through the intestine, where a second
enzyme alpha-glucosidase is secreted. It further breaks
down the smaller units of starch into simple sugars
(monosaccharides) that the body can absorb.
TOP
By blocking the actions of both alpha-amylase and alpha-
glucosidase, the starch in the foods we eat cannot be completely
broken down into simple sugars that our body can absorb.

Main Ingredients


Kidney Bean
Kidney Bean extract has been found to inhibit the action of alpha-
amylase, the enzyme that breaks down starch and sugar (sucrose) in
the foods we eat into glucose that can be absorbed by the body.
Neutralising alpha-amylase prevents the digestion of starches, thus
long chains of sugar is not broken down into smaller units that can be
absorbed by the body.

Soy Beans
Soybean extract inhibits the action of alpha-glucosidase. By blocking
its action, the starch in foods we eat cannot be completely broken
down into simple sugars that our body can absorb.

and nuts, and coldwater fish like salmon.

Physical Activity


It pays to exercise more in the long
term. Start by incorporating physical
activities that offer:
Cardiovascular health
benefits like walking for 30
minutes, swimming or
jogging.
Bone density and muscle
mass benefits like
strengthening exercises or
weight training.





Body Mass Index
(BMI)

"Overweight" or "obese" are terms used to describe excess body
weight. However, these terms differ in meaning. The Body Mass Index
or more popularly known as BMI is recommended by the World Health
Organisation (WHO) as an ideal measure of obesity in adults.
To calculate your BMI, click on the BMI Calculator below.

BMI =

[Weight in kg]



[Height (m) x (m)]





A recent WHO report states that Asian population experiences
obesity-related health risks at the lower scale of the BMI as compared
to Westerners. This is because Asians tend to accumulate intra-
abdominal fat without developing generalized obesity. In other words,
even though Asians look thinner but are in actual fact, fatter than
Westerners because they have more fat in their bodies.
