Is carb cycling good for weight loss?

Our traditional Indian diet always had a balance of rotis, rice, and pulses. These modern diet cycles might give quick results but eating balanced home-cooked food is best for long term health. Do whatever suits your body gently.

When I joined the wellness program at Apollo, the clinical nutritionist told me that carb cycling isn't meant for everyone. You should definitely consult a qualified dietitian before changing your eating patterns so drastically.

Yes, it works well if you do heavy weight lifting, but it is quite tough to follow daily.

People on social media make carb cycling sound like magic, but most of it is just hype. Don't trust random internet plans. Go to a proper doctor or certified nutritionist who knows your blood reports.

I tried carb cycling for my PCOS weight management, and honestly, it made my mood swings worse on low-carb days. It might work for others, but please be very cautious if you have hormonal issues.

Any extreme change in carbohydrate intake can affect your energy and kidney function. It is always safer to get a basic blood panel done and talk to a doctor before starting such diets.
