Japanese and Korean eat rice part of their diet and still healthy and fit. The real wisdom should be balanced diet in all aspects and always 60% full good enough, no need overeat or undereat, additionally with exercise part of lifestyle and sleep routine consistent.. Good enough.. No need measure until so accurately as sometimes the more particular you are, the more problem you have. Take it easy..

In Japan there's 大盛り(large size) that's sometimes free to upsize, ramen with rice, gyoza with rice. They are by no means on low carb or just 60% full. Maybe it's drinking less sugary drinks, walking more to get to places, snacking less at their desks, healthier snacks, less likely to have supper, annual health checkups, genetics or just a mixture. As for the real reason, more research is likely needed.

But you didn't. There is one more technique that does let you enjoy carbs: you keep your carb day to one day a week, and the rest of the week in a low insulin state of a highly satisfying Keto or LCHF diet. Carbs keep you hungry, so you treat a single cheat day as a day in which you don't need willpower either.

Carbs aren't bad just like fats and proteins. What's bad is the type of carbs/fats/protein being consumed. I'm sure a bowl of steel cut oats isn't the same as a bowl of honey nut Cheerio's.

[@LowCarbLowDrama]

Good and bad carb knowledge might be helpful, but it's more beneficial to learn how the body metabolises it. The body doesn't know whether it is the 20 grams of white/brown sugar in the cake or 20 grams of wheat (white, brown etc.) in a piece of bread; it metabolises them all as GLUCOSE. Plus, Hi/Lo GI (white & brown) is hardly useful compared to learning about the Glycaemic Load. Ultimately, the body has to digest it, whether it's Hi or Low GI, and therefore how it does it becomes more critical.

[@LowCarbLowDrama]

CARBS PROVIDE FUEL BUT THEY'RE NOT ESSENTIAL. Do we need to eat a minimum amount of carbs every day, one may think? The answer is a surprisingly NO. An essential nutrient is one that you need to get from your diet because your body can not make it on its own. Unlike essential amino acids, which are found in protein foods and essential fatty acids, which are found in fatty foods, there are no essential carbohydrates. Now the red blood cells and a portion of your kidneys and brain do need some glucose. Your body is capable enough to make all of the glucose that it needs - even if you do not eat any carbs at all. This remarkable organ called the liver can convert amino acids and other materials into glucose. This process is called gluconeogenesis, meaning 'making new glucose'. Even though your body doesn't need any carbs, including small amounts of them, carb-containing foods can still be beneficial because of the valuable nutrients in them. Celery, for example, has small amount of carbs but it has vitamins A, K, and C, plus minerals like potassium and folate. It's a bit like fructose, naturally occurring sugar, from fruit. While fructose is downright detrimental to your health, but fruits have many other valuable nutrients. A real catch 22 bummer! The takeaway mantra for me was about finding your 'personal threshold'. This one size fits all advice of "everything in moderation", A CALORIE IS A CALORIE etc., has misled humanity as far as modern medicine nutritional advice is concerned. It is outdated, and we must move on from it for the sake of our health. Good Health!

Trigger warning: answer is count calories according to your activity level. I did keto (no carbs!) and lost 12kg in 3 months with no exercise and then could not lose weight anymore for over 2 years! During those years I tried many exercises of different intensity to try lose more weight and even did carnivore diet for 1 year. Again no progress. I am now eating carbs again and on counting calories and top it off i am on plant based diet (hooray fruits) and have since lost another 4kg. Every 2 weeks I take a break and eat meat and fast food if i want. It will cause a 2kg weight gain. So my weight fluctuates up and down 2kg to 3kg. I do want to lose even more weight (another 10kg) but looking back I have come a long way. Same time i do not want this to control my life too much. It takes consistency and time.

[@nse08]

I do believe calorie counting is most important ! Zero to sugar! Carbs shall be limited to avoid craving that make you lost control of eating too much.

[@puriezeondy9425]

I was a yo-yo dieter for years too. But I found the answer and have lost all the weight I needed to lose, 36kg! Currently trying to start exercising to get really toned. I didn't exercise at all to lose it. Just better choices at every step. It took a while because dieting actually damages the gut. If you do your Keto/low carb during the week and have less control on the weekend (as in eat a slice of bread on purpose); try to have whole foods as much as possible and slowly get rid of anything claiming to be diet food; aim to reduce your portions; drink lots of water; move (walking is great); one meal a week should be something you love that's not necessarily healthy; listen to your body and sometimes just stop yourself at or just before you feel full (satisfied), not when you feel stuffed! And remember this is how you're going to live for the rest of your life. Because we're always trying to be healthier/thinner, so better to just do it properly slowly then keep rushing to failure. Give yourself a few more years and I promise all the weight would be gone and you wouldn't even feel like it was an effort. Focus on being healthy instead of weight loss. God bless you.

I think when you're saying "pure carbs," you really mean "refined carbs?" In general, carb is the main source of energy that the body uses. In a situation where carbs is not available, the body goes into ketosis to create its own fuel.

I assume old studies said carbs are main fuel is because it's absorbed faster by body. But you can be healthy without ANY pure carbohydrates.

I mean, first 5 minutes: 1) "I wonder if I can have my refined carbs as they are and not worry about overeating and gaining weight" - you can cut out carbs but overeat protein and fats, thus gaining weight. Also, 1g fat = 9 cal vs 1g carb = 4 cal. Not sure what question they're trying to ask or answer. 2) "I need to define what carbs are" - proceeds to grab different food including chocolate..... It's so weird because chocolates are mostly fat and sugar... Keep the macro nutrients separate lah. The question to ask on the street should be: "does this food contain carbs?" 3) "Green carbs, brown carbs, white carbs" - eh, hello. Brown Sugar boba how ah? How does this home-econ textbook framework help the viewers?

[@fact4fiction35]

It's clickbait. They present facts in a way that is easily misunderstood by laypeople to sensationalize it.

i would be more convinced if after eating alchemy powder in food should be tested with glucose meter after 30 mins to 1 hr. if it has sugar spike or not

Thank you for this very helpful study on carbs. Wish you could feature in your next show about the effectiveness of Alchemy Fiber. Have you done a study on it? I may have missed it. I got this product in Manila but it's made in Singapore. Thank you once again and best wishes! Sorry, I just saw Alchemy Fiber in the new video of CNA Insider on Carbs. My apologies. Thank you.

Freezing your food doesnt change the calorie content in a meaningful way. A study trying to maximize the amount of Resistant starch in wheat flour, boiled then froze it 7 times in order to raise the % of RS from 1% to 8%. If you boil and freeze a slice of white bread 7 times you will potentially reduce the calories from 97kcal to 89kcal by converting 2g of starch in the bread to resistant starch. This is not useful information for people trying to lose weight.

[@nancymercado9709]

i eat pasta, bread and ice cream almost everyday but I eat in moderatoon and O’m still loosing weight. Can’t leave without pasta and bread.

Carbs are still vital to humans, but not as much as in the past due to the shift from agricultural revolution (manual labor, rice & bread) to industrial revolution. That's why us gym rats need carbs.

[@danielma4316]

These experiments were mainky on rice and bread why not include corn or cassava as they are also main carbohydrate sources for many other people

[@redfalconsmdx]

Healthy - eat vegetables and nutrient dense foods and whole grains etc Lose weight - calorie deficit. That's it.

[@sonja940]

yeah this is how i lost 34kg in a year, started with eating a bunch of junk in the beginning while counting calories, but somehow progressively my diet just changed to a more healthier one with no effort. now on a mostly whole foods vegan diet with a lot of complex carbohydrates, protein and nutrients and feeling great, still losing weight as well :)

[@redfalconsmdx]

@@sonja940 once you become healthy and changed your lifestyle. Maintaing becomes second nature. Also exercise to gain a bit of muscles could also help with maintaining a good physique and extra muscle mass which increase metabolism to keep the fat away. Overall, just lived a balanced life and you're good

I've intensified my fat-loss routine which includes calories counting leading to the realisation of .... almost every thing has carbs. So I eat whatever heck I want within calories budget. Dropped 3plus kg in half a year.. could be faster if I had been disciplined 😪😪

[@XerrosNightscar]

i lost 60kg in a year by doing keto . I never exercised . Just ate meat and vegetables while avoiding carbs

[@AtlantisAng]

@@XerrosNightscar Exactly! Those who never had to lose weight themselves just "advise exercise" Who has the time to drop a lot of weight by exercise? Quit my job? I was looking around for a personal trainer, one told me I could eat anything except fried food. I replied her I barely ate fried food twice in a year.

[@XerrosNightscar]

@@AtlantisAng i ate alot of fried food! .KFC all the time , i think its the calories and sugar that counts .

[@briantan2963]

@@XerrosNightscar woah... KFC should have a lot of hidden carbs. And that fried food from the oil has lots of inflammatory oil.... That's some very dirty keto you're doing there. Not good in the long run. But congratz on that 60kg lost!... ( *I do keto too... )

[@XerrosNightscar]

@@briantan2963 yeah man ! i have cut down on it already ! . I mostly just eat meat and vegetables nowdays , try to get stew options more etc

Sit down less, more exercise, move more. Less dependency on food delivery should be the trick. Walk more, less PMDs (for able bodied persons). Laziness is the main culprit of obesity.

[@sheaung9236]

This video title is so Misleading. Over eating ( ie intake Calories exceed output Calories) is the main reason people put on weight. Control your mouth in terms of Calories intake is the only way. The connotation that eating refined Carb diet helps weight loss is criminally misleading and irrseponsible. Why not use balanced and healthy diet as the video title? CNA using click baits to boost viewings?

[@JarodPlaysGames]

ok blah blah basically just be at a calorie deficit, you can eat only chips and still lose weight. Anyway, you guys should do an episode on whether MSG is really bad for you

[@coreysuffield]

basically not, the video is on the right track, the body is not a bomb calorimeter and will more readily absorb and uptake refined carbs, vs foods with more fiber or proteins(require part of the food energy to process resulting in less food energy uptaken). focusing on proteins and vegetables are the key to body fat loss

[@iamkimbap1]

not all calories are created equal - sugar foods and carbs will trigger insulin spikes and weight gain + make the body crave for more carbs

[@alexschroder7045]

An entire video on carbohydrates and I didn't hear the word 'insulin' even once. What a joke of a video! For heaven's sake, stay away from refined carbs (dense glucose) and sugar (fructose). Replace them with high fiber vegetables, add monounsaturated fat (yeah, fat isn't the criminal you were told for generations) and stay away from such half a$$ed videos. Also, resistant starch is a myth, it spikes sugar as much as the regular food (check out Serious Keto by Steve). It may promote gut health but doesn't help with sugar (glucose) spike and insulin resistance at all.
