Low-carb diet. Weight gain versus Weight loss
Low-carb diet. Carbs stimulate hormones in the body which helps to store energy such as insulin. Diets that are high-in carbs, especially simple carbs are often associated with weight gain because of the storage effect. Now eating a low-carb diet reduce the activity of the storage hormone and helps with weight loss.
Energy & Carbohydrates
The key to a healthy diet is having a balance of carbs, proteins and fats and not just eliminating all carbohydrates. You don't want to cut your carbs to load those carbs are your body's preferred source of fuel your brain and red blood cells rely exclusively on carbohydrates, without enough carbohydrates you won't have the energy to fuel your body and your brain.
Good source of carbohydrates
Good source of carbohydrates include vegetables, fruits, whole grains and low-fat dairy products. The carbs you should eat less of our refined carbs such as white bread, white rice, pasta, cakes and cookies. So it's not about cutting all carbs out of your diet it's about choosing good source of carbohydrates.
"Choosing good sources of carbohydrates is better than cutting them out completely" Dr. Luigi Gratton.
