News Topical, Digital Desk : Nowadays everyone wants to get a 'zero figure' or a perfect body. For this, we sweat for hours in the gym, buy expensive supplements and follow different types of diets. One of these diets is the 'No-Carb Diet', in which people completely give up carbohydrate-rich food to lose weight.
But have you ever thought that the diet which you consider as a 'panacea' for weight loss can cause so much harm to your body? Yes, it is true! Giving up carbohydrates completely can have more disadvantages than benefits. If you are also taking a no-carb diet to lose weight, then these 5 disadvantages (Side Effects of No-Carb Diet) will force you to think.
There will be lack of energy in the body
Carbohydrates are the main source of energy for our body. Especially our brain needs glucose to function properly, which is provided by carbohydrates. When you stop taking them, you may feel tired, weak and have trouble concentrating.
Digestive problems
Carbs like fruits, vegetables and grains are rich in fiber. Fiber is very important to keep our digestive system healthy. If you stop eating carbs , you may suffer from constipation and other digestive problems.
nutritional deficiencies
Many healthy carb foods, such as fruits and whole grains, are full of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Removing them from your diet can lead to a deficiency of essential nutrients in your body, which can also weaken your immunity.
mood swings and irritability
Carbohydrates help in making a hormone called serotonin, which is also called the 'feel-good' hormone . When there is a deficiency of it in the body, mood may deteriorate, irritability and stress may increase.
weight gain back
A no-carb diet may lead to weight loss initially, but it is not sustainable in the long run. As soon as you start eating normally, you may gain the weight back quickly. Additionally, it may also slow down your metabolism.
Therefore, losing weight is a good thing, but it should be done in a proper and balanced way. It is always better to consult a nutritionist or doctor before starting any diet.
