Today we’re going to talk about what’s really behind a swollen face and puffy eyes. This situation can be so easy to fix as long as you understand one simple concept.

There are two sources of fuel in the body. There’s glucose and fat/ketones. Ketones are made from fat. Glucose is stored as glycogen. Fat is stored as adipose tissue.

Storing glucose as glycogen is extremely limited. You can only store a small amount of it. But fat has no limit. Glucose is limited because it’s very hydrated. For your body to store glucose as glycogen, it requires a lot of water, and there’s not enough space to store that much hydrated material.

The body will handle this situation by taking the excess glucose from the diet and efficiently converting it into fat. If you’re consuming excess glucose in the diet, you’re going to have more fat and more fluid. This can show up in the face as a swollen face, and especially around the eyes as puffy eyes.

I believe the best way to handle this situation is to eliminate the excess glucose in the diet. The body is designed to have a very tiny amount of sugar, and that sugar can be easily created from non-carbohydrate sources. I do not believe a person needs to consume any sugar to have normal blood sugar levels.
