  • What are Carbohydrates?
    Often referred to simply as carbohydrates, in precise terms, carbohydrates are a combination of sugars and dietary fiber; sugars are a fundamental component of carbohydrates.
    A bowl of white rice contains as much sugar as 18 sugar cubes. Consuming high-sugar foods like rice, bread, and noodles causes a rapid spike in our body's blood glucose levels.
    This phenomenon is known as a 'blood glucose spike,' which can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease over the long term.

  • You must control carbohydrates to lose weight

    When a blood glucose spike occurs, our body secretes insulin to lower blood sugar and stores it in the liver as glycogen. However, since the liver has a limited capacity for glycogen storage, the body converts excess sugar intake into subcutaneous and visceral fat for storage.
    This is why insulin is often called the ‘fat-storage hormone’.

Our body has two types of engines

Our body possesses an engine that uses carbohydrates as an energy source and an engine that uses fat as an energy source.
Therefore, by reducing carbohydrate intake and improving your constitution to use the fat-burning engine, your body will naturally burn fat on its own.

The ketone (fat) engine changes your constitution to one that loses weight.

True dieting should not harm your health

Unlike calorie-restricted diets, a carbohydrate-controlled diet does not require reducing food intake,
helping you maintain metabolism and improve insulin resistance for a healthy weight loss journey.

  • Calorie-Restricted Diet
    Reduced food intake Uses muscle as fuel Decreased metabolism Increased insulin resistance ↓ Changes to a constitution prone to weight gain
  • Carbohydrate-Controlled Diet
    Maintained food intake Uses fat as fuel Maintained metabolism Improved insulin resistance ↓ Improves to a constitution that resists weight gain
  • Personally experienced,
    continuously researched

    The carbohydrate-controlled diet discovered by Representative Director Min-woo Bang after personal experience and research.
    That is why he could confidently establish himself as an authority on carbohydrate-controlled diets.
