Comparing the effects of carbohydrates and fat in the process of reducing body fat

Cát Tiên (T/H) |

Many people think that carbohydrates or fats are the cause of weight gain, but experts say that the problem lies in how to control portion sizes.

When starting their weight loss journey, many people are often confused by the question: Should you eliminate fat or carbohydrates (carbs)? Popular diets and popular culture often " blamed" one of these two groups of substances, leading to misconceptions in building a diet.

Dr. Sumit Kapadia (vacuum surgery expert, founding director of Aadicura Superspeciality Hospital) and clinical nutritionist Prachi Shah (India) both agree that no nutrients are truly bad, according to hindusttimes.

According to clinical nutritionist Prachi Shah, a truly balanced meal is when there are five groups of nutrients: protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals. Completely eliminating a group of substances, such as fat or carbs, is not only ineffective in the long term but can also cause nutritional imbalance.

District abuse and loss of control are the culprits, explains Dr. Sumit Kapadia. Carbohydrates and fats are only harmful when you consume too much or choose unhealthy foods.

For example, trans fats, fried foods, and refined carbs (cakes, soft drinks) can cause rapid weight gain. Meanwhile, healthy fats (such as avocado, walnuts, olive oil) and complex carbohydrates (brown rice, oats, vegetables) are needed to provide energy and support metabolism.

Nutritionist Heena Bedi, certified by ISSA, shares that an effective weight loss diet should maintain diversity, rather than completely eliminate one or the other.

The most important thing is to control portion sizes, choose healthy food sources and combine them with regular exercise.

Thus, carbs or fat are not your enemy, it is the uncontrolled eating habits that make it difficult for you to lose fat.

Instead of eliminating them, learn to adjust and use them intelligently to be healthy and effectively control your weight.
