Do Carbs Make You Fat?

from The Elise Tzurkov Podcast · host etzurkov

Do carbs really make you gain weight during perimenopauseand menopause—or have we been blaming the wrong thing all along? In this episode, I bust one of the biggest nutrition myths, explaining why calories, food quality, insulin resistance, muscle mass, and meal timing matter far more than cutting carbs. Discover why balanced meals with protein, healthy fats, and carbohydrates support energy, blood sugar, and lasting fat loss,while constant snacking and ultra-processed foods do the real damage. Are carbs really the problem—or is believing that myth what's keeping you stuck?Learn about our customized coaching program: https://ffwehealthcoaching.com/4f-2246?utm_content=podcastFREEBIES available on my website: https://www.functionallyfitwithelise.com/Stay connected with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/functionallyfitwithelise/?hl=enStay connected with me on via email: https://functionallyfitwithelise.kit.com/functionally-fit-newsletterJoin my free Facebook Group: http://www.facebook.com/groups/383975962844507/
