You should be able to eat 40 grams of carbohydrate and lose weight. However, if you gain weight easily and find it hard to lose, you may be insulin resistant. Many overweight people are insulin resistant without being aware of it. If you were, you might need to drop down from 40 grams. For a carbohydrate-restricted diet, the usual range is 20 to 50 grams daily. The best way is to experiment and discover what amount works well for you. Unlike protein and fats, there is no minimum daily requirement of carbohydrate in order to flourish physically. Although there is no daily minimum requirement, they do have many beneficial phytochemicals and fiber so eating some is fine as long as they are not refined (processed) carbohydrates. Get your allowance of carbohydrate from natural sources such as (preferably organic) fresh non-starchy vegetables and fresh low carb fruits such as berries. ----
You should keep your carb intake below 23 grams of carbs a day to lose weight. This is a very low amount of carbohydrates.
If you want to lose weight and reduce the carb intake then make sure to cut down to around 50β150 grams per day. Only consume 50 to 70 grams of carbs in a day.
None if she is trying to lose weight not gain it.
30 to 60 grams per day. But total calories are more important to lose the weight.
That depends on what you mean by "dry" and whether you want to lose weight, gain weight, or maintain weight. See the Related Question for more information.
yes.
Well, in order to lose weight you shouldn't consume more than 15 grams a day.
If you are trying to lose weight, 20 - 50 grams are recommended depending on your level of activity. If you are NOT trying to lose weight, 180 - 300 grams are sometimes recommended. However, there is no minimum daily requirement for carbohydrate.
If you completely cut carbs out of your diet for the duration of your diet you can lose weight fast if you have a high carb diet. depending on your weight and eating a high amount of protein you can lose weight faster. example: if you weigh 160 and you want to weigh 130 eat at least 60 grams of protein a day.
None would be nice ... assuming you plan to loose weight.
Losing weight can be difficult, and the amount of carbs consumed is not enough to determine the ability to lose weight. In addition to cutting down on carbs, someone would need to alter the rest of their diet accordingly, and also get enough exercise.
It's not the amount or proportion of carbs that matter; it's the total calories consumed. Since it takes 3,500 calories to gain or lose a pound, if you take in 500 fewer calories per day than you burn up (through exercise and just being alive) you will lose about a pound per week. At 4 calories per gram of carbohydrate, that means cutting out the equivalent of 125 grams of carbs per day. But here's a helpful tip: at 9 calories per gram, fat contains more than double that amount. So its probably easier to lose weight by reducing fats than by reducing carbs.
