A member asked:
Can you tell me, are carbohydrates really great factors in weight loss?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Carbohydrates: Well, eating carbohydrates can definitely contribute to weight gain. By the same token, limiting your carbohydrate intake can make you lose a lot of food. Your body needs a little bit of carbohydrate daily, but most americans eat way too much of it. Protein, fruits, and vegetables (not starchy ones) are best to eat.
