The average American consumes 65% of their calories in the form of refined carbohydrates. Today we’re going to talk about what would happen if you only ate carbs for two weeks.
Leaving important things out of your diet, like protein and fat, and only eating refined carbs can lead to various health problems.
Symptoms of a protein deficiency: • Apathy and depression • Lethargy • Poor memory • Sleeping problems • Diarrhea • Flaky skin • Edema • Muscle loss • Immune problems • Problems with DNA repair • Hair loss
Symptoms of a lack of high-quality fat in the diet: • Cognitive problems • Hormone problems • A lack of bile salts • A deficiency of fat-soluble vitamins • Dry hair • Dry skin • Weak ligaments • A lack of collagen • Problems with the vascular system • An increased risk of aneurism • An increased risk of stroke • Immune problems • Mood problems
If you only consume carbs, you’ll also raise your insulin, potentially leading to insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and dementia. You will also have difficulty absorbing nutrients.
Consuming a lot of sugar and refined carbs can lead to a vitamin B1 deficiency. It turns out that vitamin B1 is protective against the collateral damage of a high-carb diet. Animal products are also important in supporting a healthy body.
