First of all, I find the claim being made to be a bit misleading given the fact that there are multiple ways for one to lose weight. Although cutting out carbs can be a big factor, losing weight looks different for everyone. After doing more research on the topic, I found that carbs are a necessary nutrient for your body because it produces glucose, which the body needs to function. On the website www.webmd.com in an article titled "What Happens When You Stop Eating Carbs" it states that, "A very low-carb diet, like keto and the early phase of the Atkins Diet, triggers your body into nutritional ketosis. Your liver starts to make ketones -- a fuel that kicks in when your body doesn’t have enough sugar to run on -- by breaking down fat. " This proves the fact that yes, cutting out carbs will promote weight loss but with negative side effects. All in all, the main claim is a little misleading in making it sound that the only way to lose unwanted fat is to cut out carbs which technically is true but doesn't consider other more healthy ways of weight loss.
