Your body develops a slow energy burn instead of a fast one on sugar/glucose, which tires you more quickly.
I personally feel much more energised and switched on cognitively as a result. My blood work results have improved dramatically including clearing up my fatty liver. I was classified as a pre-diabetic. My blood sugar and particularly my insulin have fallen dramatically. Didn't realise how much hidden sugars & carbs we consume by eating processed foods which includes bread, pasta, rice and grains. Haven't looked back and not difficult to maintain once your body adjusts.
