Extra weight and metabolism

It's no secret – cutting carbs will help you lose weight; but not in a good way. It could be more harmful to your overall weight loss plan.

That's because when you eventually do add carbs back into your diet, you'll more than likely pick up extra weight and have a harder time losing it again.

Eating carbs raises levels of satiety hormones that tell your brain to flip a switch, which stifles your hunger and boosts your metabolism.

Carbs blast belly fat

It might not seem like it, but carbs help you lose belly fat faster than other foods – even when the same number of calories are consumed.

Eat carbs, lose weight, and feel great!

Losing weight while still maintaining a healthy eating plan that includes carbs is incredible for your sense of self empowerment, says Sari Greaves, a registered dietitian for the American Dietetic Association.

Choose resistant starch

Studies have shown that eating resistant starch helps you burn more calories, eat less, feel more energised, and lower your cholesterol.

Examples of resistant starch

  • Cooked potatoes

  • Brown rice

  • Whole wheat pasta

  • Uncooked oats
